## Bio

Born Cheryl Sarkisian on May 20, 1946, she broke through in 1965 as half of Sonny & Cher—"I Got You Babe" made them 1960s counterculture royalty—while quietly building a solo career with moody storytelling pop. By the 1970s she ruled prime time: The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour drew over 30 million viewers weekly, and on her solo show Cher she became the first woman to deliberately expose her navel on American television after fighting network censors. She pivoted to film in the 1980s, earning Academy Award nominations for Silkwood and Moonstruck—winning Best Actress for the latter—and the Best Actress prize at Cannes for Mask. At 52 she released Believe, whose title track introduced the "Cher effect," a stylized Auto-Tune distortion that became 1999's biggest song in the US and the UK's best-selling single by a female artist. Her 2002–2005 farewell tour grossed $250 million, then the highest-earning by a female artist. She's sold over 100 million records and charted Billboard number-ones from the 1960s through the 2020s.
