American entertainer
live albums. Widely recognized as the Goddess of Pop, Cher has sold over 100 million records worldwide (as a solo artist)[1][2] and a further 40 million as part of Sonny & Cher, making her one of the best-selling female recording artists in history.[3][4] Billboard ranked her as the 109th Greatest Artist of all time and the 49th Greatest Hot 100 Artist of all time.[5][6] According to RIAA, she has sold 12.5 million albums (including three multi-platinum, four platinum and nine gold records) in the United States.[7] Her signature hit "Believe" has sold more than 11 million copies worldwide, and it is the UK's best-selling single by a female artist in history,[8] and one of the best-selling physical singles of all time.[9]
In 1964 Cher signed a recording contract with Imperial Records, a label owned by Liberty Records. After the success of her first major single, Bob Dylan's "All I Really Want to Do" she and her then-husband Sonny Bono worked on her first album All I Really Want to Do released in 1965. The album peaked at number 16 on the Billboard 200 and at number seven on the UK Albums Chart. After the massive success of "I Got You Babe" the record label encouraged her to record the second album, The Sonny Side of Chér (1966). The record peaked within the top 30 in several countries. Chér (1966) and With Love, Chér (1967) were less successful on the music charts. Backstage and her first official compilation album Cher's Golden Greats (1968) her last efforts with Imperial were critically and commercially unsuccessful. In 1969 Cher signed with Atco Records and released two albums: the critically acclaimed 3614 Jackson Highway and her first soundtrack album Chastity for the film of the same name; both of them were a commercial failure.
Cher entered the 1970s with the release of the album Black Rose. In 1982 Columbia Records released the album I Paralyze; with decreasing album sales and a lack of successful singles, Cher decided to focus on her acting career.
In 1987 Cher signed with
Warner Bros. which became her main record company. The first release with Warner was her 21st studio album It's a Man's World (1995) which was less successful than its predecessors. Her 22nd studio album Believe released at the end of 1998 was heralded as her comeback album and became her best-selling studio album ever, having sold over 10 million units worldwide.[12] 1999's compilation The Greatest Hits
released outside the United States became an international chart-topper.
Cher entered the 2000s with the release of the independent album Closer to the Truth, was released in September 2013 and it became her highest-charting solo album when it debuted at number three on the Billboard 200. Cher's latest studio album, Dancing Queen was released on September 28, 2018, and also debuted at number three with first-week sales of 153,000 album-equivalent units, becoming Cher's highest debut sales for an album in the United States, as well as earning her the biggest debut sales for a pop album by a female in the United States in 2018.[14] On July 14, 2023, Cher released the deluxe edition of her album It's a Man's World (1995).[15][16] Cher released her first Christmas album Christmas on October 20, 2023.[17][18] On November 3, 2023, Cher released the 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition of her album Believe (1998).[19][20]

Notes
- A ^ Note that the album Gypsys, Tramps & Thieves was originally released under the title Chér.[105] This is the reason why the Gold certification issued by RIAA in 1972 appears under Chér.
- B ^ Note that the Platinum-award received for Cher (1987), is the first Platinum-award for Cher, which is released through Geffen Records,[106] and not through Kapp records as the Platinum for Cher (1987) appears in RIAA's database. This is an anomaly by RIAA which should not confuse readers.
- C ^ Note that some of Australia's earlier certifications cannot be found in ARIA's database as it covers the years 1997–present; therefore, an editor has contacted the ARIA team via e-mail to obtain all available certifications for Cher issued throughout the years.
- D ^ Not Commercial was released exclusively through the Internet via Cher.com and ArtistDirect.
- E ^ Greatest Hits: 1965–1992 was released for the markets outside North America and Canada.
- F ^ If I Could Turn Back Time: Cher's Greatest Hits was released for the American market, and it was only available as an import to certain European countries.
- G ^ The Greatest Hits was released outside the United States.
- H ^ Icon charted on Billboard's Top Album Sales and Catalog Album Sales charts reaching #91 and #18, respectively.
- I ^ Icon has reached #8 on the Official Charts Company's Official Budget Albums Top 50 chart due to it being released at a non-full price in the UK.
- J ^ Mermaids and Burlesque soundtracks' chart positions are from UK's Official Compilations Top 100 chart.
- K ^ Live! The Farewell Tour was released in limited edition form, with only 200,000 copies available.
- L ^ Extravaganza: Live at the Mirage concert was originally released in 1992 and re-released on DVD in 2005 containing bonus songs which were not included on the VHS version.
- M ^ Greatest Hits: The Video Collection was only released in UK and Brazil to promote Cher's compilation Greatest Hits: 1965–1992.
- N ^ Black Rose was recorded with the self-titled band. In 1999 it was re-released by a German label "Spectrum" with Cher's name on the cover.
