"I can't imagine anyone doing a better job with my music than
the brilliant cast of 'The Cher Show' and I'm looking forward to
talking about the show and my career on the new SiriusXM channel,"
commented Cher.
"Working with Cher these last three years has confirmed
everything I always thought about this extraordinary icon:
She's brilliant, she's brave, and she is one of the greatest
artists of our time," said producer Jeffrey
Seller. "The Cher Channel on SiriusXM is a perfect way for
fans to get even deeper into the inspiration that is Cher."

For six straight decades, only one unstoppable force has
flat-out dominated popular culture — breaking down barriers,
pushing boundaries, and letting nothing and no one stand in her
way. The Cher Show is her story, and it's packed with so
much Cher that it takes three women to play her: The kid starting
out, the glam pop star and the icon. The Cher Show is 35
smash hits, six decades of stardom, two rock-star husbands, a
Grammy, an Oscar, an Emmy, and enough Bob
Mackie gowns to cause a sequins shortage in New York City, all in one unabashedly fabulous
new musical.
Cher is currently on tour with her critically acclaimed "Here We
Go Again" Tour and most recently received a Kennedy Center
Honor.
SiriusXM subscribers are able to listen to The Cher Channel,
channel 4, on SiriusXM radios, and those with streaming access can
listen online, on-the-go with the SiriusXM mobile app and at home
on a wide variety of connected devices including smart TVs, Amazon
Alexa devices, Apple TV, PlayStation, Roku, Sonos speakers and
