Cher on Tom Snyder's Celebrity Spotlight (1980)

Cher promoting Black Rose and recording on Tom Snyder's Celebrity Spotlight 1980

[@hoagymapleton2206]

Cher definitely took the high road on those questions she's a class act I thought Tom was until this interview

[@susangiammarinogiammarino8421]

Black Rose was like 1 of my favorite albums of hers next to Allman & Woman!

[@swartstudio]

I love her blatant honesty and straightforwardness to this cutting questions. Cher wasn’t given any slack here.

[@mbullo]

Yeh, these old school interviews don’t really cut the mustard today w/ their interrogative approach, but that was the accepted style back then. She did handle the questions wonderfully and honestly. It’s part of what’s made me a die-hard Cher fan. Whether it was rock, disco, pop, ballad- whatever, just give me Cher.

[@michaeloberg3018]

Cher has come so far! I'd love to see her watch these older interviews today.

A good interview. I have missed Tom Snyder for years- he was a great interviewer.

[@chrisyates8115]

Was he??

[@angelalove_]

young and pretty is a fantastic song!

[@jacobpatrickpoulsen6608]

I love Cher. I think that she was so beautiful here. I love her natural beauty and I think that she has gotten to much plastic surgery over the years. Even without plastic surgery she would still be pretty today, as she would have been a natural beauty. I still love her personality, her music and I respect her legacy. :)

[@kirstyw6115]

At 45 she had a nose job, her teeth done and her breast reduced after her children, obviously now she has had so much more as she is 73 but I would say she still looks very much the same, as she uses to kind of preserve her looks, not to alter them

[@zackparsons3937]

This is Cher at her peak beauty.

[@allthatjazzspaz95]

Thank you!! I have been looking for Cher interviews from this era. She's such a badass :)

[@USAjock9]

I wouldn't say "Black Rose" was a great album but a few tracks were really good! I'd personally loved "Young & young pretty". The band was excellent! Guitars, piano..... I think the vocal however good could have been a bit better. "Never should have started" would be a great song fr "Green day" to record. They do songs like that new wave sound. The look CHER had during this also briif era with "Black Rose" was very Joan Jett ish I would say, Pat Benatar and/or Chrissy Hyde. All of which were scoring big rock & roll hits. People did not accept CHER the rock singer. A decade later she had better luck with a song I always thought reminded me of her vocal performance on "Young & pretty", "We all sleep alone" was a modestly success single peaking @ number 7 on the bill board charts. That collection of songs had various producers with Bon Jovi writing a couple. Bigger hits followed on the next CD "Heart of stone" and of course "Believe" which is CHER's biggest selling CD ever.

Love the Black Rose album.

[@ziggystardust360]

I love Black Rose!!!!

[@mycreativedesignsspace6739]

I love his voice

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Gregg and C Her All Man.

[@TR-yi8up]

I’m just happy that the Wi-Fi from your Mom’s basement was strong enough for you to post this

[@Vf46]

Wow, so rare, thank you!

[@joeparker9511]

Thanks!!! Oh the memories.✌🏻

[@CaptainSpalding72]

Miss Tom. He could talk to anyone and didn't kiss their asses like those Entertainment Tonight booger-eaters.

[@BillyDoll9]

Luv it

[@mybiz2167]

Gawd! I love her nose, her teeth and her perfect lips from this era.She's super attractive to me. But then... It's her body and she has all the rights to change as she pleases. I think she's gorgeous now for being 70 years old, even though it's not a natural look. But most importantly, this is a woman to admire for her achievements. I mean, she won an Oscar for Moonstruck. And don't you forget it! :D Love ya Cher.

[@cynthiareynolds3432]

Looking at her in this interview I was thinking the same thing - she looked so good during this time.

[@jeffreyzeiss1326]

1 Corinthians 6:19-20

[@DaisyAnnabelle65]

She is Absolutely Gorgeous here!

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

You should watch Sonny and Cher singing It Never Rains in Southern California. Watch it very closely.

[@robertowcarz9862]

Black rose cher

[@ilovethetampabaylightning92]

@ 2:47 Great close-up of Snyder. He was gorgeous.

[@mihills4168]

that song sounds" just like Jessy James "before.and Cher allways tends to go whoaa whoaa whoa when she sings.

[@itstheburnz]

He's so intense...he really didn't know the real her..talking points that someone else put together.

[@mrbrownroyyal]

I never heard the "Black Roses" album before (I know of it, I never heard it) but it sounds really funky (in a good way) anyone know what song she was singing? Is it a good album?

[@Texaslawhorn]

This Cher look reminds me of Joyce DeWitt/Janet from "Three's Company."

[@jchow5966]

☮️💟

[@volodymyrkarnaukh6676]

O my God

[@JayQuellin1]

I miss Tom Snyder.

[@tomwho8696]

😎

[@olddisneylandtickets]

Tom at 10:37 "can this all just go on forever", Cher "No"... well I think she was wrong and still going strong.

[@DannWilsonCarl]

8:53: “I don’t find you very attractive, but I know you need a place to stay. If you keep the house clean, you can sleep with me.” Good lookin talented Sonny Bono, to Cher. Just THINK ABOUT THAT.

[@maryvelneelemantenaya2092]

I CAN'T believe the Bambasity of this guy or Anybody who comes across like him... Whose interviewing who? What kind of job is THAT? And she went on to ROCK IT for 40 more years !!!

[@greg62945]

That's honest..... Greg

[@timothyxavierohio]

I love Cher's personality & art, just not her politics. She said that she was married for 4 years, who was she married to for 4 years?

[@cynthiareynolds3432]

Gregg Allman

[@mybiz2167]

But wasn't she married to Gregg for just a few days??

[@theunstoppablejoancrawford1855]

My Biz Yes but then they've got married again not so long after they splited

[@jasonbabcock7364]

Gregory baby!

[@bsquared4604]

she slipped in a micro-flirt there.

[@ilovethetampabaylightning92]

@ 10:16 I want to kiss him too.

[@sharksport01]

I like his wig.

[@markdaniele4539]

She has a horrific voice.

[@sharksport01]

And became an icon with it.

[@slow-mo_moonbuggy]

Watch Sonny and Cher singing It Never Rains in Southern California. Watch the video very closely.
