"DJ Play a Christmas Song" climbs two spots to No. 18 on the UK singles chart, while 'What Christmas Means to Me" enters at No. 95. Meanwhile, Christmas slides 16 spots to No. 21 on the Top 100 Albums chart.

Great photo of Cher in a bee-hive bubble wig straddling her boyfriend, Alexander AE Edwards. She posted it and simply said Love is Love. I wanted to post the fun pic but could not figure out how. Ya, I bet her Christmas album does even better next year! She seemed to have fun promoting it as well.

Luckie Starchild, thanks for posting this pic. I tried but could not figure out h ow to do it! You are more of a Tekkie!!
Cher does her best work when she is in LOVE. Cher is ruled by her heart, so I hope Cher and Alexander AE Edwards do go into the studio next month to work on her new album. She supposedly is set to begin recording it in Feb and with Alexander AE Edwards involved, I bet she has a new sound.
Hopefully Billboard, or Rolling Stone, or another mag with drop some details on it.

Cher has received her first nomination for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Her latest "f-them" must have caught the committee's attention.

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame's litmus test for getting nominated is having your first official recording 25 years before the nomination year. In Cher's case, her 25 years was satisfied long long long ago.
Cher's first recording with Sonny Bono, hubby at the time, was in 1963 as Caesar & Cleo, then in 1964 and as a solo, her first recordings were in 1964. Cher's recordings with Sonny or as a solo in 1963 and 1964 went nowhere but she hit #1 with Sonny in 1965 and had her first solo hit in 1965.
60 years ago, is a long time in the music biz for an artist who is still considered "current", so even if Cher never got into the R&RHOF, she gets the last laugh for having such a long long long career and is always doing something new.
Cher should have been nominated and admitted into the R&RHOF back around 1989/1990 or so. For Cher to have NEVER been nominated these past 35 yeas is sort of absurd and shocking.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL
The Black Rose album has been released on streaming!!!!!!!
I love this album so very much, even though it bombed hard in 1980. It's the one time Cher got to record true rock music without a label sanitizing her sound.
If you've ever been curious about it, take a listen.

Meryl Steep did such a great speech and she seemed so genuine. Jennifer Hudson belted out Believe and Cher was just so CHER in her acceptance speech. Really hope Cher does record her new Warner Brothers album along with Alexander AE Edwards. She is hot now and so many younger artists would love to work with her. Cher is 78 next month but still signed to a major label, Warner Bros, and they seem to treat her like a much younger artist. Hopefully other artists will still be able to do new things at age 78. Cher often is not successful, but she always tries and seems to laugh at herself in a fun way. I love it when they say she is like a bumper car and just bounces off the wall and comes back again and again and again and again over these past 7 decades.

Yes, happy for both of them. I wonder if CHER will go to her induction. Had Jann Wenner not had to step down, Cher would have NOT been even nominated. Jann Wenner does not like her and THAT is why Cher was sort of a persona non-gratis on the cover of Rolling Stone or inducted or nominated for the R&RHOF. Sad how one misogynistic man controlled this mag and Hall of Shame for so long. Glad he is gone. Happy for both Dionne and Cher to get in. Now time to induct all the female artists who have been left on the sidelines.

Meanwhile, Jann Wenner gets kicked off the board of the R&RHOF and leaves in disgrace... he must feel like sh*t!
