Cher's Unexpected Revelation
In a candid reflection, music icon Cher has shared the unexpected and somewhat tumultuous story of how she lost her virginity at the young age of 14—an experience fueled by what she described as a need for 'revenge.'
Details from Cher's Memoir
In her newly released memoir, 'Cher: The Memoir, Part One,' the legendary singer recounts the momentous occasion, revealing that it was sparked by an incident with a neighborhood boy who had abandoned her after they shared a kiss. The rejection hit Cher hard, and in her youthful anger, she made the bold choice to get back at him by having what she dubbed 'revenge sex.'
Cher's Reflections on Her First Experience
Cher disclosed that until that bitter moment, she had no intention of losing her virginity, stating, 'Otherwise, I would have done it one of the five hundred other times he asked.' However, fueled by feelings of anger and betrayal, she relented, only to find the experience to be 'massively overrated.' In her frank recounting, she asked her partner, 'Is that it? Are we finished?' and promptly told him to leave, wishing to make him feel the same sting of dismissal he had caused her.
A Humorous Spin on Heartbreak
Adding a humorous twist, Cher reminisced about her fear of her mother's potential reaction to her losing her virginity, recalling how her mother claimed she would be able to see it in her eyes. Cher jokingly thought she might spot the word 'SEX' glowing in neon letters on her forehead, but noted that both her mother and she saw nothing different after the event.
Cher's Romantic Journey
Cher's love life took on even more twists and turns following this pivotal moment. She entered into a whirlwind marriage with Sonny Bono, a partnership that lasted from 1964 to 1975, before moving on to marry rock musician Gregg Allman in 1975, which ended in 1979. Currently, the music legend is in a relationship with Alexander 'AE' Edwards, sparking interest and curiosity since their connection was established in November 2022.
