She belongs to the elite club of celebrities instantly knowable by one name. And as it turns out, I Got You Babe singer Cher doesn’t even have a middle name. But if she did, it could well be Danger – or at least Adventure!
“When I was nine years old, I decided I was going to run away from school, like, go on an adventure,” Cher recalls. “I hopped on a freight train with my friend. I had no idea where I was going. And we just rode this train until my friend started crying because it got dark. So I called my mum and she was like, ‘Cher! What have you done?’”
Now 77 – and with a career of almost six decades behind her – Cher hasn’t stopped having adventures.
What’s her latest one? A Christmas album.
Last month, the popular songstress, who shot to fame in 1965 as one half of the husband-and-wife duo Sonny & Cher, released her new album, simply titled Christmas, and she smiles as she acknowledges it’s yet another freight train on her whirlwind journey through life.
“Different freight trains, different time,” she laughs. “It’s like, when I did this album, I had no idea what was going to happen with it.”
