Cher

Finding your talents at a young age can be a blessing since it can help get you out of a difficult situation when you least expect it. That’s the story of Cherilyn Sarkisian, who had undiagnosed dyslexia, which always made school difficult for her. Yet, her life turned around when the young Cher quit school to pursue her singing dreams.

Her showbiz career had a great start, and just a year after getting married to Sonny, Cher decided to make music as a husband-wife duo. Sonny & Cher became one of TV’s most beloved wedded variety show hosts. This Oscar-winning star achieved all this long before eventually breaking into acting.
