Cher Announces the First Installment of Her New Memoir

Cher has revealed that the first part of her memoir will arrive on November 19. Cher: The Memoir, Part One will be released via Dey Street Books, and the publisher has revealed the cover, which features a vintage black-and-white photo of Cher with her signature black bangs and cat-eye makeup. Check it out below.

Part one of Cher’s memoir will focus on her early life; from a childhood marked by family chaos and the hurdles of dyslexia, to her relationship with Sonny Bono and their seismic fame as a pop duo in the 1960s and 1970s.

Back in 2021, it was revealed that a Cher biopic is in the works, helmed by Judy Craymer and Gary Goetzman—the production duo responsible for the Cher-starring hit movie Mamma Mia! Cher was announced as an additional producer on the film, but, earlier this year, reports surfaced that Cher had rejected Academy Award–winning screenwriter Eric Roth’s script for the project.
