Rejecting Elvis
Cher’s popularity on the dating field increased after her divorce. Even stars of that time noticed. Among them was the King of Rock, Elvis Presley, himself. Cher was invited to Elvis’ concert in 1976 which was held in Las Vegas. Cher declined. She reminisced about it in David Letterman’s show and said, “I was about to do it and thought “No, I don’t want to.” She even said, “I’ve regretted it ever since!” What a great couple they would have made! But still, we think she avoided a disaster when she declined his offer.

Her pain
Cher talked about her pain during and after her relationship with Sonny in an interview a few years ago. She mentioned that she felt “more like a golden goose than like his wife…. I forgive him, I think. He hurt me in so many ways, but there was something. He was so much more than a husband – a terrible husband, but a great mentor, a great teacher.” Cher has always insisted that Sonny was the one who had brought her great success, despite the unhappy memories they had shared.
