Cher
Actress, singer, director. Born Cherilyn LaPiere Sarkisian on May 20, 1946, in El Centro, California. Cher met Sonny Bono, a recorder producer, in a coffee shop when she was sixteen. The two began performing together as a musical act, at one point billing themselves as “Caesar and Cleo.” They married when Cher was eighteen and by 1965, Sonny and Cher were a popular act on the West Coast, renowned for their outrageous outfits. Their first big hit was “I Got You, Babe,” (1965) which sold over four million copies. The couple had a daughter, Chastity Bono, in 1969.
In the 1970s, they starred in their own top-rated television variety show: The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour (1971-1974). The end of their show coincided with the collapse of their marriage. The couple divorced in 1974, but reunited professionally for The Sonny and Cher Show (1976-1977). Bono went on to become a Republican congressman before his death in a ski accident in 1998. Cher had a brief marriage to rock musician Gregg Allman in the late 1970s, which produced a son, Elijah Blue Allman.
After a stint on the Las Vegas circuit in the late 1970s/early 1980s, Cher launched a successful film career. She received a Best Supporting Actress Oscar nomination for her role in Silkwood (1983), and a Best Actress Academy Award for Moonstruck (1987), in which she played an Italian widow. Her other notable movies include: Mask (1985), Suspect (1987), Witches of Eastwick (1987), Mermaids (1990), and Tea With Mussolini.
