Cher’s Last Gasp?

cher_and_chastity-2.jpg
Cher and plus-sized daughter Chastity Bono are reportedly pitching a reality show called Coming Out With Cher and Chas. Despite their differences in the past – including Cher’s utter denial and rejection of Chastity’s lesbianism – the gals are coming together to help struggling queers come out. If anyone can get a gay boy out, it Cher.

Richard from Proceed at Your Own Risk doesn’t have much hope for the show, writing:

I predict this new show will last for about as long as any one of us can stare at a horrific train wreck–or until Chastity mistakes her mother for a midnight snack. In either case, you stare until the blood, guts and body parts make you shiver, shudder and turn away in disgust.

That’s ridiculous! This show will in no way, shape or form be a train wreck. Cher has an Oscar – okay? Obviously she wouldn’t sign up for some schlocky reality show. She knows better than that – or she should, at least.

What do you think of this post?

And, um, Chastity was pretty amazing on Celebrity Fit Club. I’m not even kidding.

Does anyone remember the Lori Davis infomercials? I’m just saying.

Way to put down about half the population with the fat jokes, guys. C’mon, you’re a better writer than that. It is the new equivalent of saying something like, “This black lady at work gave me a cookie today.” It has nothing to do with the story you’re telling.

What’s that mean? Because Cher has an Oscar she’s incapable of mistake? Anybody ever see Jon Voight in “Ananconda,” or Hoffman & Beatty in “Ishtar?” Why wouldn’t a dame who signed up for Shopping Channel to hawk her can’t-give-it-away perfume not also do a ‘schlocky reality show?’

Tintin…

Thanks for reminding me of Lori Davis…..I would love to find video of those informercials.

Those were even bad for infomercials……that must have been a low point for Cher.

I remember that Cher’s assistant was part of the show and they did a lot of hair bouncing and head shaking.

I think it was said tongue-in-cheek that Cher, whose career (except for a few good films) has been one of over-the-top tastelessness, would never do any schlock. That’s like saying Sherri Shepard would never say anything dumb.

What’s up with the crass fat jokes and plastic surgery comments? If sarcasm and suspended good manners are the “gay agenda” that Queerty is promoting, count me out. Hoping for an interview with one of the most famous gay icons on the planet one day? I say you better hold your breath. For a really long time.
