About this listen
‘A rock ‘n’ roll memoir like no other’ Daily Mail
‘A gutsy account of tenacity and perseverance…Cher’s voice reverberates with the grit and depth that made her famous.’ The New York Times
THERE IS ONLY ONE CHER …
… and for seven decades she has been showing us why. Cher holds the attention of the world with her voice, her acting, her style, her wit and her unstoppable spirit. Now, for the first time, she tells her story in her own voice – as honest as it is hilarious, as powerful as it is perceptive.
Cher’s childhood was anything but normal. As her mother Georgia – blessed with movie-star looks and a knockout voice – moved them around the country over and again in the hope of finding fame, her school life wasn’t straightforward. But she always knew she was going to be somebody when she grew up.
Cher’s powerful instinct to keep moving eventually landed her in the arms of Sonny Bono. The duo became famous beyond their wildest dreams, from humble beginnings singing backup in Phil Spector’s studio through to pop stardom as Sonny and Cher, and then on to the television show that made them household names. But as time passed, fame changed the dynamic of their relationship and Cher evolved from a wide-eyed teenager into a woman. She started fighting for herself, breaking away from Sonny’s control – and realising that things were not as they seemed.
Taking risks, making headlines, falling in love, Cher struggled and stumbled while trying to become her own woman. Cher: The Memoir, Part One brings us to the brink of her next chapter, as she begins to chart her own path, finally claiming her rightful place in the world and becoming CHER.

The way she was controlled by Sonny and the traumatic upbringing before that.
If I was being really critical there was a vast amount of ‘me’ but seeing it’s an autobiography what should I expect!
I’m so glad I bought it, such a fascinating book from the woman who has songs through my life - I’m the same age!
Buy it!!!

A remarkable women
What a life, she has only spoken about her life up to the late 70s and I can’t wait to hear about the rest of her life! What a woman!

Fascinating Memoir…Awaiting Part 2
Very interesting and funny. Still lots more of her life to hear about in Part 2! I wish she could have narrated the whole book but she starts each chapter and the voice actress is very similar who takes over.

Loved!
It's written so well- everything is integrated in such a smooth way. Natural, honest, real. Very introspective and down to earth. She'd make such a good friend! Looking forward to Part 2. Lovely narrator also!

Incredibly interesting to hear the inside of the life of a superstar but so infuriating
Cher's had a tormented life but she's so much of an optimist that she just made it work regardless maybe a bit naïvely. Having been walked all over by her first husband it baffles me that she still has the patience to even look him in the eye let alone continue to work with him. He used her. For all she is. Which is infuriating to listen to.

Frank and honest with great story telling
My god this is worth the audible credit. It’s incredibly packed with enough story for several lifetimes and it’s only part one. If you’re a Cher fan you’ll adore it and even if you’re not there’s enough to grip ANYONE. I loved it and cannot wait for part 2.

Cher
Good listen about her life,but only gave it four stars because she was reading sometimes half a chapter and someone else reading out the rest. It was really off putting.

amazing life
the reading sounded like an AI robot at times. not sure if this is because of Chers dyslexia, but at times quite off putting. However she is an amazing woman.
