LISTEN to this interview.

Do you remember the first movie that really moved you?

“Dumbo.” I was 4 years old. It changed my life forever because I looked up on the screen and said, “That’s what I’m going to do when I grow up.”

So did fame turn out to be everything you thought it would be?

Actually, I didn’t think I wanted to be famous. I mean, at some point obviously I did. I looked up on the screen and I wanted to be up on the screen and be an actor. I just knew I wanted to sing and dance and be silly up on the big screen and have everybody sitting in the audience clapping.

So has fame been what I thought? I had no [expletive] idea what it was going to be, you know? There are a lot of times it’s wonderful, and I get to do things I would never be able to do and meet people. Like last night, I was working on my album and I was in heaven because it was so much fun, and I still love that. I still love acting. I love being on stage. I love it. And it has some really bad down sides, too.

When you don’t want the attention and it continues.

And you go someplace and you totally forget. Like you don’t think and all of a sudden there are people everywhere, and they ruin your life. They ruin it for you and everyone else who is with you. You forget. I forget. I’m always forgetting.

Sorry!

I'm sorry i know i'm a little far behind on all the Cher news but i'm gonna post it as soon as possible ;)

Cher has hand picked 17 films to fit the theme: "A Womans World: The Defining Era Of Women In Film." which ties in nicely to her first single on her new album.

Cher chose films which highlight the evolving roles of women from the late 1930s to the early 1950s, starting at 8 p.m. April 5 with 1945’s Joan Crawford-starring “Mildred Pierce.”   Other films that are selected include “So Proudly We Hail,” and “The White Cliffs of Dover” on April 13, “His Girl Friday,” “The Devil and Miss Jones” on April 19 and “The Great Lie,” “Kitty Foyle,” “The Palm Beach Story” and “The Women” on April 26.

Cher had this to say about her collaboration with good friend Robert Osborne, “Working with Robert isn’t like working at all! We can’t stop taking about the classics and obscure golden oldies. We talk though the breaks while they move the cameras, check the lighting and do the touch-ups. I can’t stop when it comes to the subject of old films, and then I get Robert going, and then the crew and director finally say, ‘Ahh, Cher? We have a show to do.’ Robert and I laugh and become gown-ups again,”.

As Cher has already told fans on twitter the shows have already been taped in L.A. so stay tuned to Turner Classic movies to see Cher in all her glory.
