I know a lot of bad things have happened in the last day, especially with the tragic murder spree in New Orleans.

Get mad at me, but I can't stand Cher.

Mods pull if inappropriate.

[Daveinyork]

Did she thank her plastic surgeon?

[Codeflier]

I am amazed she didn’t seem to get overly political (but I did go through it quickly).

[MayflowerMadam]

Not a big fan any more, but I did see her show in Vegas around 1980, and it was high energy and excellent.

I recall listening to Sonny and Cher in the late ‘60s when we were bowling, and had to stand in the back and set up our own pins. Weird the things you remember ...

[redfreedom]

I can’t stand her either. Back in the day when it was Sonny & Cher I thought they were OK. But the older this creature gets the more repulsive she gets.

[God luvs America]

What did she say?? I won’t watch.

I turned it on real quick last night and saw Dionne Warwick. She was very classy and i like her music- yet putting Dionne into the R&R HOF while Jethro Tull further proves what a joke the place is.

[Nifty]

She’s a weird one. She dated Gene Simmons from KISS, and actually got Simmons and Diana Ross hooked up. This was all in the early 80s.

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Her head seems to get more full of air as she ages. What a DITZ!

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The term "Rock and Roll" really has been bastardized. Cher was a commercial easy pop "artiste". Soon Taylor Swift will be in the same "Hall of Fame" too.

[Fiji Hill]

She’s a famous pop star, but is she a rock and roller? Meanwhile, Pat Boone, the King of Rock and Roll, has never been inducted, and the same goes for the Crew Cuts and Dorothy Collins.

[Jamestown1630]

I thought she was great in ‘Moonstruck’.

[Red Badger]

[1Old Pro]

I thought she was great in ‘Moonstruck’.

Can't disagree, and she had a decent singing career. I remember my mother in the 60's couldn't stand her, thought she was trashy.

[rktman]

Here, I’ll help. “Hi fans, I’m a useless POS!”

[stanne]

Cher is not rock and roll. She was married to Gregg Allman briefly (no to be confused with Duane Allman in this case), but that doesn’t count

Here’s the only way to see cher. (And yes. Moonstruck is a Great movie)

[Dr. Sivana]

Cher was a commercial easy pop "artiste". Soon Taylor Swift will be in the same "Hall of Fame" too.

By that standard, Neil Sedaka should be in the HoF as well, and Connie Francis, too.

[frank ballenger]

I remember once a fan asked her if she was planning any new plastic surgery work.

She said:
“I have had so many different procedures done I think if I have one more my whole body will just explode.”

[DesertRhino]

Cher…. But no Motörhead, Iron Maiden, Smiths, Graham Parsons, Judas Priest, Thin Lizzy…. but Cher.

Got it.

[Irenic]

Yes it has. Not to detract from the deserved awards but the R&RHOF has little meaning anymore.

[frank ballenger]

So no respect for the classic “I Got You, Babe” with Sonny?
