Of her relationship with Sonny, she admitted, “We had a strange relationship and when I heard that he and his lawyer owned everything, and I was just an employee, I said I wanted to be 50/50 partners or I would walk.”
‘I didn’t want to leave, but I couldn’t get out of that contract, I had no money. There is no bitterness towards Sonny. I was mad at him, but I just couldn’t be mad at him. We were friends until he died.”
She revealed that she asked Lucille Ball for advice on how to leave, adding: ‘I didn’t know what to do and leaving was hard for me. Lucy was on TV and part of a couple, so I went up to her and she said, ‘f*** him, you’re the one with the talent!’
Speaking about her autobiography Cher: The Memoir, Part One and asked why she wrote it now, the singer said: ‘I don’t know. There’s no reason for almost everything I do.’
When asked what it was like looking back, she says: ‘It was okay and interesting, but I didn’t feel anything. I remembered it, I wanted to do it, and I did it.
“Originally I didn’t want to tell anyone, but then I thought, I have to tell or give the money back!”
When asked if there will be another album, she revealed, “We’ll start working on the last album when I lose the book!
“I did well at Christmas and I’m praying I can get through it. You’re not supposed to sing at this age, and I hope I can do it and hit the notes.”

It comes after he revealed she was respectful in her portrayal of Sonny in her new memoir.
‘I think he would like it. I’m not sure he would like it all,” she says in this week’s issue Stellar magazine.
‘I didn’t try to portray him as a bad guy because we remained friends until the end. It was such a complicated relationship. I did my best, but sometimes it doesn’t make sense.’
Cher didn’t hold back when she admitted that she “doesn’t really care what the public thinks of her.”
‘There have been times when people just didn’t like me. People weren’t interested, or they had had enough, or they thought it was over,” she said.
“What if I cared more about what people think than about doing what I wanted and who I was meant to be? You can’t take yourself seriously when you’re down, and you can’t take yourself seriously when you’re up.”
