I personally saw Cher at the Mirage concert in Las Vegas. She was taping her show there in 1992. She was a vision, her songs, her actions, everything about her was awesome. Cher has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard. When she came out on stage with her song, "After All" I just melted. It was terrific!

I'm just so happy that I was able to see her before her retirement. I hope that she truly does not retire from all appearances. "After All", she's an icon! Thanks for playing, I hope you enjoyed this quiz on Cher.
