Cher is fully aware that men expect ‘fabulous sex’ from her, explains why

When it comes to sharing aspects of her private life, Cher holds nothing back.

During a performance at β€œThe Howard Stern Show on Wednesday, the Grammy Award-winning artist β€” who recently released her new book, “Cher: The Memoir, Part One” β€” opened up about her sex life at 78.

After being asked if men “expect fabulous sex” from her, she said: “Yes – and they get it,” Cher confirmed. “You can feel the reaction.”

“Who would ever leave you?” Stern asked.

“Few men,” she replied. “Look, I was madly in love with Val Kilmer and he left … because sometimes you’re only meant to stay with someone for so long. Val was really young.”

The former couple, who are 13 years apart in age, were together for a few years in the early 1980s.

“We became friends because we laughed at the same things all the time,” she shared People in 2021. “He would sleep over, and it was just a friendship (at first). It took a long time. Well, I don’t think very long.”

Cher, who is currently dating Alexander “AE” Edwards, has been married twice before. She was married to Sonny Bono from 1964 to 1969 and later to Gregg Allman from 1975 to 1979.

In her new book, the “Believe” singer reflected on how her tumultuous relationship with Bono led the pop singer to contemplate suicide several times.

“There I was, twenty-six years old, and in what had become a loveless marriage … he just lost interest,” she wrote.

“I stepped barefoot onto the balcony of our suite and stared down. I was giddy with loneliness. I saw how easy it would be to step over the edge and simply disappear. For a few crazy minutes, I couldn’t imagine any other option ,” she added.

Cher said she had suicidal thoughts “five or six times.”

What pulled Cher away from the ledge was the vulnerable thought of how it would deeply affect her family if she were to jump to her death.

“… Every time I think … about my mom, about my sister, about everyone, and how things like this could make people who look up to me feel like it’s a viable solution, and I would resign.”

The “If I Could Turn Back Time” singer then came up with another solution for her relationship with Bono.

“I don’t have to jump off, I can just leave him.”

She admitted that her age difference with the 38-year-old Universal Music Group executive occasionally creates instances of miscommunication between the pair.

“Sometimes I talk to him and he has no idea who I’m talking about … The other day I said, ‘You know who, I don’t know, Clark Gable, (is)? ‘ Somebody said, ‘Yeah, sure,'” but most of my references … he’ll look at me and say, ‘I’m not born yet,'” the Grammy Award winner told Extra in 2023.

However, Cher explained that the two share a strong connection, though she noted that Edwards was “reserved” and “more overtly shy,” compared to her.

“I hate to talk about how happy I am, but no, we have a great time together,” the “Moonstruck” star said.

She continued: “We can talk music. We can talk about everything. He has a great sense of humor, he has the cutest son in the world, ever… We just get each other.”
