Cher Will Start Book Tour for Memoir at Famed NY Synagogue Because Why Not?

Share

Cher’s memoir, called Cher, will be published on November 19th. She promises to tell the “Real” story of her life, although by now we know it by heart thanks to endless interviews, a Broadway musical, and so on.

The Oscar winning actress and famed singer is also going on a book tour to meet fans and sign volumes. The tour has an unusual starting point: Temple Emanuel in New York, a famed synagogue. Cher is not Jewish, she’s Armenian — unless of course the book reveals otherwise. It’s a unique choice of venue for a unique celebrity!

Other locales on the tour menu include Englewood, New Jersey, Beverly Hills, London, and San Francisco. There is nothing booked for the rest of the country. In the old days, book tours went to Boston, Cleveland, Dallas, St. Louis, etc. They never went to Englewood, New Jersey!

Cher marches to the beat of her own drum, that’s for sure. “Cher” the book is coming in two volumes. No word on Part 2, the Rob Camillietti years. Cher said on Jimmy Fallon’s show a year ago that she “chickened out” on adding all the juicy stuff, so she had to go back and put it in.

I do hope there’s even a passing mention of my late friend, Michael Klenfner, who put “Believe” on the radio and on the map!

In new Instagram post, Cher dropped a tiny taste of the book today.
