Cher (original) (raw)

Sonny & Cher during a rehearsal break at ABC Television�s Wembley studios on 26 May 1966.

On a roll: Cher, apparently wearing neck tape, was attempting to Turn Back Time at the London premiere of her new movie Burlesque last night

here's the Burlesque review, a classic:

"The choreography looks like a Las Vegas hooker�s attempt to plagiarise Bob Fosse, and is so atrociously edited that you can�t tell if anyone can dance or not.

But anyone who witnessed her �startlingly crude, pre-watershed �performance in The X Factor final will know her approach to dance is to wave herself at the camera in as �sexually provocative a manner as �possible, and her idea of a duet is to shout in a rival�s face.

Super-strident and transparently self-obsessed, she has all the fresh-faced, country girl �innocence of Shane Warne.

The story tells how the world�s least likely ingenue turns around the �fortunes of a destitute club in Los Angeles, run by a woman who appears to have siphoned off all the profits into tacky costumes, Botox and �cosmetic surgery � that�s Cher, looking like a man in drag and sounding like one.

The scene where Cher becomes a caring, surrogate mother to Aguilera is a camp collector�s item; it�s clear neither woman can stand the other."
