Cherhas some choice words to describe a director with whom she previously worked.
I actually got the guy fromThe Muppetsfired.
He would go, At least my wife loves me!

He was an asshole.
He was not nice to the girls in the film and he was so fing arrogant.
I really, really disliked him.
And I say, Well, the kitchen is working pretty well, why dont we do that again?
Oh yeah, he was a pig.
Then you do it your way and they dont even notice.
Ive worked with Bob Altman, Mike Nichols, Norman Jewison … Really great directors whom I respect.
I know when to listen.
She doesnt like men.
Thats why shes named Cher: She dropped her fathers name.
Sarkisian, it is.
She won Best Actress at Cannes because I shot her very well.
And she cant sustain a scene.
So I shot a lot of close-ups of her because shes very good in close-ups.
Her eyes have the sadness of the world.
I shot more close-ups of her than I think in any picture I ever made.
The second half of Chers memoir is slated for release in 2025.
The film won the Academy Award for Best Makeup.
