Cher

Cher is immensely famous, and has been since 1965 when she had a #1 hit with "I Got You Babe" as part of the duo Sonny & Cher. She was 20 years old at the time and partnered with Sonny, who was 11 years older.

She hosted three different variety shows in the '70s, two of them with Sonny. First was The Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour, which launched in 1971 and ran until 1974 even though she and Sonny split up in 1972. In 1975, she hosted a similar show solo, simply called Cher, which ran for one season. By this time, their divorce had been finalized and Cher was married to Gregg Allman. She and Sonny took another crack at it with The Sonny and Cher Show, which launched on February 1, 1976, when Cher was pregnant with Elijah Blue Allman. That show ran into 1977.

Before she met Sonny, Cher had a fling with Warren Beatty in 1962. She's dated celebrities like David Geffen (1973-1974), Gene Simmons (1977-1980) and Val Kilmer (1982-1984), but one of her longest-lasting loves was Rob Camilletti, who was working in a bagel shop when they started seeing each other in 1986. He's 18 years younger than Cher, so she became comedy fodder for robbing the cradle. After the broke up in 1989, Cher found another star partner: Richie Sambora of Bon Jovi.
