Not Her Biggest Fan

When sitting down to speak with Billboard, Cher made a startling confession. “I’m not a Cher fan,” she said bluntly. Apparently she felt truly ashamed of her pop songs back in the 70’s – such as “Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves,” “Half-Breed,” and “Dark Lady”. She wanted to have a sound similar to Joni Mitchell or the Eagles. “I just don’t think my aesthetic taste lies in her direction.”
