Two years after this interview, she did an absolute reinvention of her music and released Believe and I fell in love with her. 23 years later Believe still sounds so fresh and future-proof
Her eyes is what got me, cameras can’t truly capture them. Honestly, and I don’t mean this as shade - when I saw her she had a lot of make up on, which you could tell but who cares?? It’s CHER, she’s an absolute legend and no one comes near her❤️
Ok, she is definitely insecure about many things and hates people like Brittany Spears who can't sing to save their lives. So she was about 50 y/o here. Midlife crisis? In "Celebrity World" that can be VERY old. All depends on your audience and what you do as entertainment etc. You, of course, know that she has had plenty of face work done not to mention she had her teeth fixed. Just google "sonny and cher show" or similar and check the images. She was always beautiful except for her teeth. But gravity does take its toll.
I've been looking for this for years... one of my favorite moments on this show ever. The 2nd half is classic. Thanks so much for uploading it. I really needed this today.
Just noticed...Cher's wearing MOM JEANS! it was '96...I remember there was a fad of the high waisted wide leg jeans going on back then...if anyone can rock mom jean's it's Cher...
Wilma FistFit No, I’m not a Trump supporter in the least. Will always love Rosie, but she seemed lighter and happier during her talk show years. Just sayin’
She's right...without Sonny I don't think we'd be enjoying Cher. Thank you Sonny, may you R.I.P. And Rosie was right...without Cher Sonny would be pumping gas somewhere...LoL Cher is, has, and always will be 2nd to none. And still so damn hot !!!
T Hop, she'd run circles around you in regards to business. She has a very good business sense. But, go ahead and think she's dumb. She will laugh all the way to the bank with it!
They are not the same. Cher makes fun of herself. Madonna takes her self more serious. Yes they both make dance/pop music and wear little clothing, and have the same type of fan base. But Cher can take a joke and make fun of herself, she laughs about her cosmetic enhancements. Madonna never discusses them. Nothing wrong with that. But clearly, they aren't the same.
They both had/have very carefully crafted personas that differentiate them from run-of-the-mill pop singers. They both found out that mixing a little bit of being yourself with a lot of iconoclastic imagery and publicity went a really long way. And thank the cosmos for BOTH of them! Enough said.
i was standing right Next to Cher , She Loves Playing Her Space Invaders Game . I asked Her Who's Winning ? And She Replied The Little Guys . Bette Midler Was Also With Me Too ......
I think it's interesting Cher said she wasn't very well known in Japan because Japan is very big on pop music. But this was pre-believe so I'm sure she became well known in Japan after that song came out. But I could be wrong
Yeah, well, you're very late to the party and so is Japan. Cher's been a superstar probably twice as long as you've been alive. Don't get me wrong, she's still insecure and can be a mean bitch--but a very talented one.
suckittomcat yes your right Cher has been a star twice as long (perhaps longer) as I've been alive. But I knew who Cher was when I was like 3 cuz she's one of my mothers favorite singers. I remember when believe came out (I was probably 4 or 5) and my mother had a cassette tape of Turn Back Time on Cher's workout video. My mother also had the camel candle holder from Cher's catalog. So maybe I haven't been alive that long but I'm very well aware of a lot of the classic superstar musicians. Don't judge me cuz of my youth.
klassicalmuzik Not judging. I'm pleasantly surprised. That's one of the reasons utube is great. You guys can sample artists from decades ago. Once you click on one, Big Brother suggests more for you which is not such a bad thing. :-) Music these days has taken quite a turn for the worse. Add to that, I had to live through all that depressing alternative rock crap too.
Rosie had such a fun show. Cher has such a Gr8 laugh. Always so honest, even abt Letterman making a move on her & she being giddy abt it. More importantly abt her connection with Sonny. Never doubt that connection was made in Heaven 🌷
Cher is one hell of a classy women. I admire her so much. Im 55 yrs old and and wish someday i could see her perform and even better meet her. Of course that would never happen but i can have a few dreams here and there
Rosie was SO fng good/funny here! Absolutely peak/classic, iconic Rosie Show (mid 90s daytime TV). Yep, rarely if ever saw Cher blatantly enjoying herself so much and this loose! Wouldn't at ALL be surprised if this one episode got Rosie the Emmy that year (or the next)!
UGH! The reason I remember this episode is because I wanted to see it, but I was either too lazy or incompetent to set the VCR to tape it while I was away at Driver's Ed class :)
Omg she looks so young and gorgeous . Lol I have to giggle at Bette midlers line in first wives club thanks to cher's pioneering efforts u still haven't reached puberty lol to Goldie Hawn character about plastic surgery
Rosie says to Sonny, "sit & spin" 🤣👏🙌 "if it wasn't for u (Cher), he'd be pumping gas somewhere" PREACH!! Reading Cher's newly-released memoir & it is unfathomable to me how wrong Sonny did Cher; literally taking all the $ they BOTH earned on The Sonny & Cher Show...what I wouldn't say & put him in his place if he were in front of me 😡😤 Cher, a Living Legend & absolute Goddess, I swear 1 of the most beautiful women I've ever seen, and so honest, so down-to-earth...she deserves all the accolades, nods & awards, what a National Treasure!! ILYSM, Cher!! 😍🥰🤟✨
it's soooooooo insane that one of the BIGGEST STARS OF ALL TIME is so natural and normal and yet you have Demi Lovatos and Idont Knowwhos who are acting like Divas! insaaaaaanity! Looooooove yooooouuuuu Cher !!! KIM WILL NEVER BE THE MOST FAMOUS ARMENIAN EEEVEEEER!!!! NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER

You can tell that Cher was really enjoying this interview.
I never forget how beautifull Cher looks in person. Saw her in concert in front of me. Perfect skin and such beautiful eyes. Love her!!
John sarkisian I saw her too...I could not believe how perfectly flawless she looks
Definitely true! She is pretty!
Her eyes is what got me, cameras can’t truly capture them. Honestly, and I don’t mean this as shade - when I saw her she had a lot of make up on, which you could tell but who cares?? It’s CHER, she’s an absolute legend and no one comes near her❤️
Cher's laugh is the best omg
cracked me up when Cher started laughing at Rosie. I have never heard her laugh like that. loves it!
She's 50 here...she's 70 now and still amazing
Soren Aleksander Ageless
Soren Aleksander now 72
Lily Pilson Roscoe
73 now
yea thats just insane shes 50 in this...
Can you stop focusing on her fucking age?! under all of her videos people are counting her age just enjoy the fucking video and shut up
I don't know why she thought she was old here in 1996! She was so incredibly beautiful..now Its 2015 and she is still BEAUTIFUL.

After 15 face lifts ... ? Black hair dye... ? and a pound of make up to cover the scars...
What a moron. 15? Try 1.
She's still BEAUTIFUL! She was a beautiful child also!
T Hop
Maybe she thinks your political opinions are BS as well. Get over yourself. Jealous much?
I just love her voice! It's so captivating. And her laughter is just too cute.
I miss this show!!!! I loved watching Rosie!
Rosie was so fun on her show.
Cher-The Original Armenian Goddess.
well said
The only one
How can you not love Cher. She is just so beautiful and that voice of hers is just amazing
I LOVE HOW rosie o'Donell introduces her in 1996 as a LEGEND so i guess now CHER IS A SAINT! BOOOOOOOM! give us more CHER! THE WORLD NEEDS YOU!
alan francis - Amen Alan. Cher is a diva extraordinaire. Sing on sister!
I've been looking for this for years... one of my favorite moments on this show ever. The 2nd half is classic. Thanks so much for uploading it. I really needed this today.
cher looks gorgeousssss here
Erin Stefani she always does
We'd all look gorgeous with all that surgery
@@johngreene9220 not really x) No Donatella Versache
I miss the Rosie show, I remember I use to always watch it
Cher is the most amazing artist in the business. She defines the word legend .
Just noticed...Cher's wearing MOM JEANS! it was '96...I remember there was a fad of the high waisted wide leg jeans going on back then...if anyone can rock mom jean's it's Cher...
It shows Cher funny and knocked em dead yet again! Rosie all my love
I really miss this version of Rosie.
pam0626 she’s still hilarious and amazing. Let me guess you’re a drump supporter 🤮
@Toast Ro is a sweetheart.... still!
Wilma FistFit No, I’m not a Trump supporter in the least. Will always love Rosie, but she seemed lighter and happier during her talk show years. Just sayin’
@@pam0626 We all have different life chapters. You are most likely the same person you were 20 years ago.
I love this video so much! They are SO funny! And I love Cher's laugh, it always makes me laugh along with her(:
its 3:25 am and I'm watching a Cher interview from 1996 whats wrong with me?
You can`t sleep (fellow insomniac?) but you love Cher?:)
Nick Powell nothing 😂
You're not alone! LOL Perfectly normal.
Nothing
Happens to me quite often.
I had a terrible day at school today, came home and saw that you uploaded this and I was sooooo happy again! thank you!
CHER'S LAUGH IS SO ADORABLE
and the clarity is fantastic!
She's right...without Sonny I don't think we'd be enjoying Cher. Thank you Sonny, may you R.I.P. And Rosie was right...without Cher Sonny would be pumping gas somewhere...LoL Cher is, has, and always will be 2nd to none. And still so damn hot !!!
He became a Congressman on his own.
She's so beautiful!
I love Cher and Rosie. They both say what they think just like I do.
Cher Is the best
Cher is a dumb as a hammer.. Was never accused of being the sharpest knife in the drawer.
T Hop, she'd run circles around you in regards to business. She has a very good business sense. But, go ahead and think she's dumb. She will laugh all the way to the bank with it!
I love the sax version of "The Way of Love" playing once Cher walks in.
I'm Japanese and I love CHER and Rosie!
Cher is so beautiful and her voice is so beautiful
She's just soo wonderful! Bubbly, cute, funny, TALENTED, and just OMG!! I love you Cher!!
there are no words for how gorgeous cher is, inside and out.
I love the way Cher laughs. lol

But Cher can take a joke and make fun of herself, she laughs about her cosmetic enhancements. Madonna never discusses them. Nothing wrong with that. But clearly, they aren't the same.
Cher can sing, Madonna can’t. Cher oozes charisma, MADona just doesn’t, MADonna is a good entertainer and a good dancer
Points were made
They both had/have very carefully crafted personas that differentiate them from run-of-the-mill pop singers. They both found out that mixing a little bit of being yourself with a lot of iconoclastic imagery and publicity went a really long way. And thank the cosmos for BOTH of them! Enough said.
9:52 HAHAHAHHAHAHA CHER'S LAUGH - PRECIOUS XDDDD
Cher is beautiful!
I always liked Cher but the more interviews of her I watch the more I love her.
i was standing right Next to Cher , She Loves Playing Her Space Invaders Game . I asked Her Who's Winning ? And She Replied The Little Guys . Bette Midler Was Also With Me Too ......
90's Cher is my favorite!
I love Cher
rose looked very good back then...
LOVE THEM BOTH !!!!

I kindya wish Cher dated Japanese for once in her life, cause that what I want to do date Japan men

How STUNNING is Cher like seriously?
Me and Dione are both named after singers from the past who now do infomercials.

Rosie owned that show, best host
Cher is an ageless icon

I kust go round watching cher interviews and videosm She is just awesome, if i could choose anyone to meet in the world, it would be cher!!!!!
OH MY GOD YOU FOUND THIS ONE!!!!! YOU ANGEL!!!!
I like how she's convinced that she's old and jokes about it unlike madonna who still think that she's 20.
So gorgeous very morticia addams
I used to love Rosie O’Donnell show! She really went down a dark road😢
Rosie is one good interviewer.
UGH! The reason I remember this episode is because I wanted to see it, but I was either too lazy or incompetent to set the VCR to tape it while I was away at Driver's Ed class :)
How have I not seen this?
I just realized that she was 50 here. Fascinating.
she looks so good
I love how thick Rosie's accent was
I WANT CHER'S HAIR!!!!
Wig.
Omggg She didn't look like a day over 30 in there...
I LOVE YOU CHER XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Cher прекрасна!!!!! Я люблю ШЕР! I love Cher!!!!!

wow she really looked beautiful
Her reaction to Rosie trying to take off the "helmet" candle holder top!!! LMAO
well put.so true.
Back when Rosie was charming
Now a bitter old broad
I thought the term was hag.
People still hated her then too. (I'm a fan, I'm just saying)
Back before Rosie became a nut job. Cher beautiful then and beautiful now. My all time favorite singer.
Rosie has the grace and charm of a gas station attendant--In Jersey.
BRILLIANT TV !
hey i am 17 and watching everything that has cher in it from the beginning of her carrer! That is weirder
iconic forever!
Rosie would actually be accurate in calling a Candle Shade a Lamp Shade. Before electricity, A Candle was often referred to as a 'Lamp'
#TBT Originally Aired:July 2 1996
I fucking love cher God she's beautiful
I wanted to watch this for cher but cant deal with R.O.
Cher TE AMO.
Rosie is the first person I've ever heard pronounce Calgary properly. Most native Calgarians pronounce it Calgree.
