Cher reflects on challenges of Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction during emotional speech

Cher was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on Saturday in Cleveland, a recognition she described as more challenging than her two divorces. She humorously noted that it was "easier" to end her marriages than to achieve this honor. During her speech, Cher thanked her late mother for encouraging resilience. She reflected on her career, mentioning setbacks and her surprise at having number one hits for seven decades. Cher emphasized the importance of perseverance for women. Cher attended the ceremony with her boyfriend, Alexander Edwards. The couple has been together since 2022, despite a significant age difference. Cher was inducted alongside other music icons, including Mary J. Blige and Ozzy Osbourne.
