Cher’s real name
We all know Cher as no other than Cher, but she was actually named Cherilyn Sarkisian when she was born. She got her American side from her father while she became part Irish, English and German through her mother. The combination of races in her blood was what made her a real beauty which she still is. We simply adore her monosyllabic name – Cher. So much easier to remember!

Solo career
It is indeed true that Cher first rose to fame in 1965 when she was part of the singing duo, Sonny & Cher. However, she actually started her solo career a year after she and Sonny became famous. She juggled a singing career as part of a duo and a solo artist at the same time. I Got You Babe was her hit song with Sonny, while Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) was her hit song as a solo artist. Wow! Her ability to find her balance in all types of situations is such an inspiration.
