I have never been one to admire people for who they are or what they are. I admire someone's voice, charisma and even presentation. But if you have not impacted my life is a positive way I am not very impressed!
And this is where Cher comes in! Maybe it's the glass of wine (not really) or looking at the Burlesque poster Rob has on the dining room wall, but I was thinking how much Cher has impressed me and how much I would like to go shopping, walk the dog have my famous Portuguese Turkey with my family and her. Believe me in Bayonet Point Florida, Cher would not need a disguise!
This is why Cher impresses me to today:
I remember her song "believe" and how it gave me the freedom to be what I am today!
She has encountered sadness and showed us you can cry for love!
Cher has acceptance built into her character though at times no doubt difficult!
She has showed her dark side even though most of us are afraid to do so!
She has been sexy and no afraid to be so even as she ages (not to me).
She has been brave to change with time.
She to me is natural and as time she transforms because it's who she is not for fame.
She shows resilience and decades later can touch people's heart!
Cher appears to be genuine is her heart and love just shines!
She has loved, been hurt and jumped back.
I have never heard apologies for having been who she is.
Like Elizabeth Taylor I believe Cher still loves, because once you love its forever!
She is not my icon! She happens to be human and I guess that is the reason my dream, if there is one is to have Cher ring my doorbell one day! I would not melt, I would say, lets go for a walk. Girl how have you done it and still inspire people today!
I know Rob would say he would melt if Janet rang the door bell! But I always remember Cher's concert words! "Follow this bitches". Only a confident star and human being says that!
You may never read this Cher, but, here is a glass of wine celebrating the impact you have left me and millions of others.
