Cher is coming to Vegas...

You have to love Cher.

I first remember her in a few great movies such as Mermaids and the one about the boy with elephantiasis (a genuine tear jerker!).

She is a good actress but at the time I did not realize that she had been a huge pop star for at least a decade previous. She has transcended a few eras and is still going strong. What an amazing lady! She looks amazing for her age and considering she has been going for around 40 years it's unbelievable that she is still producing hit records. Only a few other such as David Bowie can boast such a thing!

And guess what? She is replacing Celine Dion (Whom I do not like!) at the Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. From the beginning of May 2008 Cher will performing a spectacular looking new show.

Her official site says that Her new show will feature 18 dancers and aerialists, new costumes by Bob Mackie and some dazzling video and special effects.

It will debut May 6th and run for a month at first. With four shows per week at 7:30pm. She will return for further dates beginning in early August.

I don't think I will be in Las Vegas over this period and sadly don't have the cash right now but if you are looking then you can buy the tickets from this link:
