Yes, and I’ve also heard that her parents fought constantly. Then they divorced and she was molested. Doing surgery on such a person is criminal, imho.
I definitely have the feeling that her entire childhood was one big nightmare. I remember an interview with Cher some years back after Chastity defined herself as a lesbian. Cher basically said that she always thought that Chastity would give her “grandchildren”... she wouldn’t have to be married though. I remember thinking then, “Thank goodness she wasn’t MY Mom”. I personally hoped that Chastity could have gotten some sort of intense psychological help with those issues.
Yes, I know that her parents fought night and day - particularly when the marriage was breaking up. A close relative of mine was a writer on the show. He said Cher was a dreadful person; Sonny was a nice guy to work for.
Sonny made Cher. He took an inarticulate young girl with a pointed head and turned her into a singing star. He wrote all the songs and produced all the music (he was a music executive in his early years). He pushed and pushed Cher to stardom. Of course, she never had a good word to say about him until she actually upstaged his current wife at his funeral.
