“If I could turn back time” happens to be one of my favorite songs by Cher, with “The Shoop Shoop Song (It’s in his kiss)” coming in as a very close second. My mom was always a big fan of hers, she’s someone I grew up listening to and watching because of my mom. I can remember being in middle school when Mermaids (the movie) came out, which Cher starred in alongside of Winona Ryder and Christina Ricci. It quickly became one of our favorite slumber party movies. In fact, my good friend Jess can recite nearly every word in the movie before it’s said - yeah, we watched it a lot and a lot is probably the biggest understatement. I absolutely loved her in Mermaids and often wished my own mother was like her (not that my mom isn’t amazing or anything). Rachel (Cher) let Charlotte and Kate get away with a lot and that is so not the way I recall my childhood at all. HaHa!

Though it’s been years since I was first introduced to Cher, I still find myself enjoying her the same as I did back then and then some. I think she’s just getting better and better as she ages (both career-wise and her beauty). I’ve never seen Cher live but I’d love too And now that she’s out of retirement, I can think of a hundred things I’d be willing to do, to get my hands on Cher Tickets at Caesars Palace, where she’ll be replacing Celine Dion beginning this May. Someday I will.. someday!
