Have you ever wanted to see a production of West Side Story where Cher plays every role? Yes? Well then, your wait is over. We’d love to know why this was made or how, but until then we are happy to just sit in wonder and look at it.
Things we have noticed.
- Cher in a blonde wig reminds us of Keith Lemon a bit, but ginger-boy-Cher is the best.
- The bit where she sings I Feel Pretty (3 minutes in) is spectacular, especially when she does the mirror voice. We need a mirror voice.
- This video seems to be quite old, but Cher is massively on trend with her preppy-hipster look. Fashion forward!
- Evil-Boy-Cher in a headband is scary (4.25 minutes in if you are feeling brave). Lady Gaga’s Jo Calderone is clearly styled on Evil-Boy-Cher.
- At about 5 minutes in we see an impressively bad dress. Yes, bad even for Cher, who once posed on the guns of a battleship in lacy underpants. Also Cher with curly hair looks like Anita Dobson when she worked at the Queen Vic.
- The bit where two Chers have a sing-off over a boy is inspirational. We think Anita Dobson Cher is the winner of the contest; they should have done that in EastEnders.
- Just when you think it couldn’t get any better, two shadows have a knife fight on a giant bird cage. This makes Cher sad and she has a jolly good sing about it.
