Chaz Bono and Cher
Cher was indeed a sensation after the celebrity couple formed their folk-rock duo, ‘Sunny & Cher’. Such was the magic that I Got You, Babe, the lovely number had made it to the number one chart. Within a record time (1967), almost 40 million copies were sold. While the 70s had certainly paved a great success story for her, even now Cher stays the remarkable icon.
Sonny and Cher’s son- Chaz Bono underwent surgery to make a transition from being a female to a male. A musician, actor, and writer himself, Chaz is busy carving a niche of his own and away from getting overshadowed by his reputed parents.
Now in his fifties, Chaz appeared in American Horror Story: Cult, in almost 8 episodes after he enacted the role of ‘Gary K. Longstreet.’ His documentary Becoming Chaz, which is more of a personal account of his gender transition has earned him accolades.
