Cher to release two-part memoir that ‘finally reveals her true story in intimate detail’
Cher is ready to tell all.
The Goddess of Pop, 78, announced Wednesday that she will release a two-part memoir.
“After more than seventy years of fighting to live her life on her own terms, Cher finally reveals her true story in intimate detail,” reads the description by HarperCollins Publishers.
The 480-page first book hits stores Nov. 19, and the second is expected sometime in 2025.
In “Cher: The Memoir, Part One,” the “Believe” singer will recall her childhood and marriage to Sonny Bono, detailing “the highly complicated relationship that made them world-famous, but eventually drove them apart,” according to the description.
The memoirs spotlight Cher’s “trademark honesty and humor,” per the publisher, and share how she became a “trailblazing superstar” who has topped the Billboard charts for seven consecutive decades.
“It is a life too immense for only one book,” HarperCollins teases.
Cher first announced in 2017 that she was working on a memoir, but she said on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” last year that she had “totally chickened out” and put it on the back burner.
“I didn’t put in some things that needed to be in, and they’re not comfortable, but they need to be in, so I have to go back and man up,” she explained at the time.
The Emmy, Grammy and Oscar winner acknowledged during the late-night interview that the book would be sizable once completed.
“I’ve lived too long and done too much, and so it’s like it should be the encyclopedia,” she joked.
Cher was married to Bono from 1964 to 1975, and they shared son Chaz Bono, 55. She was then married to Gregg Allman from 1975 to 1979, and they had son Elijah Blue Allman, 48.
