So, Cher recently spilled the beans on how her iconic anthem “Believe” became the trailblazer for auto-tuning. She dropped this bombshell while chatting it up on The Jennifer Hudson Show, and boy, was it a revelation!
According to the diva herself, “Believe” wasn’t just a bop; it was ground zero for the whole auto-tune craze. Picture this: Cher and her producer, Mark Taylor, are in the studio, and things are getting heated. Cher’s all like, “I’m singing my heart out,” and Mark’s all like, “But the verse needs more oomph!” Classic studio drama, right?
Cher, being the legend she is, fires back with, “I’m giving it all I’ve got, honey!” But Mark ain’t having it. He’s on a mission for perfection, or so he thinks. So, what does he do? He whips out this magical contraption called a pitch machine. Cue the angels singing!
Fast forward to today, and Cher’s still shaking her head at the whole ordeal. In an interview, she basically shrugs and goes, “Eh, it’s not that amazing. Actually, it kinda ticked me off.” Classic Cher, always keeping it real!
But hey, let’s not forget Cher’s wisdom-filled moments. At the iHeartRadio Music Awards, she drops some truth bombs about never giving up on your dreams, despite life throwing curveballs like it’s going out of style. Take notes, because if anyone knows about resilience, it’s Cher.
Cher, the auto-tune pioneer, the icon, the one and only. Who knew a little studio spat could birth a musical revolution? Cher did, that’s who!
