“I wouldn't be in this now if they gave me a million dollars,” Cher said after being repeatedly snubbed by the Cleveland institution.
Cher is a legend. And she knows that she deserves to be treated as such. On Thursday he visited He Kelly Clarkson Show and swept into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame after reflecting on the fact that she is only the second artist to have number one songs in seven decades after the Rolling Stones.
“It took four to be one of me,” Cher said as Clarkson stood up from her seat and applauded. “And I'm not in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame!”
“I'm not kidding,” Cher added. “I was about to say screw you! Did you know? I wouldn't be in this now if you gave me a million dollars… I'm never going to change my mind. They can just say you know what themselves.”
Clarkson began to share that she had no idea this fact about Cher, before the music legend interrupted: “Also, can I say one more thing? “I changed music forever with 'Believe.'” Cher was referring to the fact that the single created a new approach to the use of autotune in music production. (She also has some ideas about Believe He will be 25 years old this year.)
The visit of the music legend to Kelly Clarkson comes while promoting her single “DJ Play a Christmas Song,” which topped the dance/electronic digital song sales chart. Cher released her Christmas album Christmas at the end of October, with songs like “Home” with Michael Bublé and “Drop Top Sleigh Ride” with Tyga.
Cher's new comments about the HOF come several weeks after Kate Bush, Sheryl Crow, Missy Elliot, George Michael and Willie Nelson were among those at a ceremony last month.
