The Ellen DeGeneres Show recently featured an iconic guest: Cher. The legendary singer and actress, who has earned the title of an icon, graced the stage to talk about her age-defying fitness routine, her upcoming Broadway show, and her latest album. Cher, who is an impressive 72 years old, revealed that she works out regularly and even challenged former First Lady Michelle Obama to a plank challenge.
During the interview, Ellen and Cher also discussed the movie “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again”, in which Cher plays Meryl Streep’s character’s mother. Cher admitted that she usually turns down movie offers, but the persuasion of her friend, who happens to be the head of Universal, convinced her to take on the role. The movie has been a massive success, grossing over $400 million worldwide, and Cher couldn’t be happier with her decision to be a part of it.
Aside from her acting career, Cher is also set to embark on a tour in Australia and New Zealand. This comes after her previous farewell tours, which she thought would be her last. But Cher‘s career has had a way of pulling her back in, much like Al Pacino’s resurgence in the industry. The upcoming tour is just the beginning, with more shows expected to be announced in the future.
In addition to her tour and acting endeavors, Cher is also producing a Broadway show called “The Cher Show”, which delves into different phases of her life. It promises to be an honest portrayal, including the parts that Cher might not necessarily want to reveal. The show will feature three different actresses portraying Cher at various stages of her life, along with a fashion show of her iconic costumes by designer Bob Mackie.
One of the highlights of Cher‘s appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show was her performance of songs from her latest album, “Dancing Queen”. The album consists of Cher‘s interpretations of ABBA songs, and she revealed that it was a whim that turned into something she’s incredibly proud of. Despite not being a fan of her own music, Cher acknowledges the album’s success and the joy she feels while performing these classic hits.
The conversation also touched on Cher‘s outspoken nature when it comes to politics. She has been vocal about her views on President Donald Trump and the current political climate. Cher takes to Twitter to express her opinions, sometimes getting into heated exchanges with supporters of Trump. She believes that voting in the midterm elections is crucial, emphasizing the importance of having a say in the future of the country.
Overall, Cher‘s appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show was entertaining and lively, showcasing her incredible talent, wit, and age-defying energy. Fans can look forward to her upcoming tour, her Broadway show, and her hit album “Dancing Queen”. Cher continues to mesmerize audiences with her timeless appeal and unmatched star power.
