Like A Phoenix, She Rises Again!

Filed under: Exclusives! > Cher > Sin City

Exciting news, diva lovers!

The rumors are true.

She's back from retirement!

Putting speculation to rest, PerezHilton.com has exclusively learned that Caesars Palace in Las Vegas is going to announce on Thursday their hundred million dollar plus deal with the one and only Cher.

The international icon has entered into a very lucrative agreement with the hotel for a series of over 200 shows, which will run over the course of the next three years in their 4300 seat Colosseum.

Her first show will be on May 6th. Yay!

Cher will be speaking with Good Morning America and Nightline on Thursday.

An insider tells us, "Cher reveals that she juggled three different boyfriends last summer, has spent a lots of time quietly visiting wounded soldiers at different hospitals around the world, doesn't have
words to express her hatred for George Bush, passionately endorses Hillary Clinton and most importantly is reuniting with the great Bob Mackie on the costumes for her Las Vegas run."

Her rep refused to comment on any of the above except to confirm that she too heard that sequins have officially been added to the endangered species list.

Viva the gypsies, tramps and thieves! We know where Perez is gonna be on May 6th!

Funny

She spent all that time in vegas in the 70's, and I thought
she didn't want to go back. It's different now.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this woman! She is has a heart of gold. My father was a musician in her band and all I can say is, she is like an angel! So kind to everyone. Doesn't care if you're rich or poor. Viva la Cher!!! And she was one of the pioneers in using her first name only!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CHER LOVES HER WIGS says – reply to this

49

She is so flamboyant and wonderful. I heard she has a wig in every color. The kind of person you could have a blast with. Loved her in Mermaids. She and Chastity (her daughter) are very close and she's always been supportive of the fact her daughter is gay. I LOVE CHER!!!!!! And my God - Her Voice!!! SOOOO rich!

VERY excited to hear she'll be the next float in Caesar's Diva Parade. NOT so excited about her supporting Hillary Clinton. But, those fake chicks gotta stick together, right?

I saw Cher in Vegas about 25 years ago. We were in the front right by the stage. It was a great show.
She's still tickin.
Nicky says – reply to this

52

I never usually comment on Perezhilton cause most comments are subject to a barrage of abuse from others and that's no way to us bandwidth but the news of the one and only CHER! returning to to the stage is perhaps the best news I have heard in my life, ROCK ON DIVA WE LOVE YOU, YOU ARE THE BEST NO QUESTION ABOUT IT!xxxx

Cher is FANTASTIC in concert, and I can't wait to go to Vegas and see her…but the lady who "donated her TITS to Cher", BETTE MIDLER will be at Ceasars starting Feb 20th and I'm gonna see her from the 7th row center front orchastra on March the 4th. I live in Texas, and the 4th is Primary Day here, so of course I'll vote for HILLARY in early voting before I head for VEGAS.

Holy cow! I thought that was Judith Light!
Patches says – reply to this

56

It's good news. I am a bit concerned that her head looks like it should be leading the next Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade though.
She's been doing great things, Perez you might wanna take off a night of
promoting yourself and head over to a volunteer organization yourself. Ever think about how glamorous that would be?
Better yet, give us less and make more of a committment of yourself. C'mon
give something back. Dang.

Caesars' gay trifecta is complete–Elton, Bette, & Cher. They're so wise to jump on the bandwagon of high-spending gays.

You know, I've never taken the time to post on here but it goes to show you how dumb celebrities are. "Most importantly" is put before the fact she's teaming up with a queen to get costumes, vs "more importantly" being put before visiting wounded soldiers. HOLLYWOOD SUCKS!

67

The rumors were flying about Cher during the final week of Celine's engagement at Caesars–Cher is no fool…she turned them down flat until Vegas decided to cough up the big bucks. Even between Elton and Bette, there would still be something like 22 weeks a year to fill.

i hate it when people pull this shit about being back from retirement-what a publicity stunt. I mean, why bother retiring when you and everyone else fully knows that you're going to come back anyway-whatever
Diana says – reply to this

Re: chris – Hold your horses, Queeny! Cher doesn't need to imitate anybody. She could perform out of cardboard box and still call it a come back and be 1000 times better than anyone INCLUDING Celine Dion. Cher is gonna pack the house and surpass Celine's success 10 fold within 3 years; absolutely trumping Celine's five year run. Think before you speak, bitch.

You have to drive a wooden stake through that bitch's heart
She never gives up
But I do think time will do her in this time out
For the $$ she will be collecting, they will want blood from a stone of a show, I know in the past she could deliver, but lets face facts, she is now in her mid 60s

I wish she just would have remained in her coffin

Nana Cher~! I knew she'd drag those creaky old bones and fat ass back up on the stage! Glitter me pink! Anything is better than that croaky has been Bette Midler. Bring on the glitz. Cher is no genius, and her worthless kid Elijah could NEVER help defend the USA- but, hey, whatever makes her feel better about being rich. I don't listen to her for political opinions- so I hope she shuts the fuck up on stage. I can't wait !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But if she utters ONE word about politics, I am demanding my money back.Who ever paid her to TALK on stage- especially once Sonny died? She is the ultimate barbie doll of all time.

Re: MyBabysNamedPerez – Gays like Cher because she is so tranny drag! How can you not like someone who USED to be shaped like barbie doll in sequins and feathers singing in a voice so low that any guy could imitate her. She is the gaudiest of the fruit flies! Though I guess she is more of a flame dame now.
YumYum says – reply to this

81

all that plastic surgery and fake veneers on her teeth- she doesn't look like Cher at all.
:-( what a crap message to send to girls. At least her daughter is true to herself. Where's her son- is he still alive? Poor Cher- trying to look like she was 20. She looked better with crooked teeth and normal eyes.

Cher is so 80's! It's not like she has a good voice either. I say leave the old lady alone!! I thought Celine Dion was too much, but Cher? Come on, she never ages, it's spooky. She doesn't even look like she did in the 60's w/Sonny.
