Of course he had a crush on her! Who didn't have a crush on Cher in those days!

She threw David out of it. He seemed to be even humbled by it. Well done. ( and he is an ahole)

​@@lindalee5866💯💯💯💯💯💯💯

Where does she say that?? Because Dave's huge crush was Terry Garr, Blake lively, Drew Barrymore, Julia Roberts but his biggest crush was Terr Garr. And he had crush on Natalie Portman... He never mentioned Char..... plus Char said because he says mean things to the guests he doesn't like???? Your information is little off ???? Plus only reason she went is he paid 28,000 for her hotel....

Of course he had a crush on Cher. Did you watch the video?

Yes, and you watch letterman, he is always moving forward on his chair into the personal space of all his female guests. Touchy feely for the ladies and for the guys he is on the other side of his desk with maleophobia.

Man wasn't she though

MAN HE HAS A BIG ADAMS APPLE

❤

* before fillers drove up and ruined even GOOD plastic surgery

Totally agree with you harry baules, "wow" indeed. Her smile is captivating and even when she's serious her eyes are so direct and focused. The fact she's genuine, straight talking and devoid of hypocrisy makes her even more attractive.

And her personality was so charming on this show. If you saw her only on The Sonny And Cher Show she was always pretending (acting) like she was judging Sonny the Dummy which was the act of course.

Watching Cher I was in difficulty to keep my beast quiet...

She was never beautiful. Inside or out. She used everybody.

Your definition of “ classy “ is way different than mine.

@@glowilk5377 My thoughts exactly.

I would say b!@ch more than classy. Not there.

Classy? 🤣🤣 She is the opposite of 'classy'

Like her or hate her, she commands the room or at least the conversation.

What in the hell are you talking about

@@Lloyd_Christmas11 If you aren't that sensitive or empathic, you probably miss a lot of interpersonal dynamics that more sensitive people can recognize. Observe and learn.

@@TrueWalker88 I imagine that I may consider things about people in a similar way as you might. However, you have a very illustrative way of detailing your words to relate what it was that you recognized. As I was reading your description, the conversation they had was playing back in my minds eye, as it affirmed to me, that; yes, I did notice that about that particular interplay. The way in which you described it, certainly added delightfulness upon my resurveying the interaction between the two of them. I enjoyed your comment very much.

Oh please, it looked pretty set up to me. And knocked off balance? Not really.

I always thought he was an ass hole and how he treated Mary Tyler Moore proved it. I'm glad she said it.

She was honest, this counts allot

16:53, wow

That was soooo... evident and obvious that I almost felt bad for Dave! 😂

Really felt for him 😂

​@@beeoflight not me. Didn't you see she wrote down her private number for him? That's the card he grabs and holds onto at the end.

Looks more like plastic to me...

She really fixed his wagon! He was nicer to people from there on out!

It was a cute moment. And did she write down her phone number for him?

Really???? I thought it was cringey and awkward. I hate these talk shows. They’re pointless and feel forced. Lotta small talk. Jimmy Fallon now is the worst.

@@MxMicah1038 Talk shows are fine and Dave's not that bad at interviewing. Cher's really off in this interview, though. For most of it she's kind of standoffish. She doesn't handle pleasantries well, seems bad at small talk and takes long pauses to seemingly simple questions. She doesn't fill the silence like the average person does.

@@Lucifronz I sensed she was just awkward and uncomfortable. I’d be terrified and dreading being interviewed in a talk show. I hate sarcasm. I’d be like wtf

Thanks, she seems nice n down to earth, glad you confirmed it.

@@devinneitzert3326 I have never in my entire life met anyone as kind and thoughtful as Cher. For such a huge celebrity, this was quite a delightful surprise, just knowing that people like this exist.

@@tiffsaver ok, She is someone who keeps fame and fortune at bay. I'm glad she is just a normal lovely lady.

Dolly Parton is also a super sweet amazing person.

You were very Lucky to work with amazing People. I can tell by the way She talks, She is very real. She invokes innocence and intelligence combined. I can't stand intellectual arrogance, I once confronted Somebody like that, I think He wanted to murder Me....all I said was, You do realize, being so arrogant and educated like Yourself.....You might as well be ignorant, it's the same fine line, that runs through many things, like the one that runs between Love and Hate

She's ticked a lot of boxes in her years...

It was all good until she jumped out from behind a tree, with a 2x4, on a ski slope and nailed Sonny in the knoggen.

- No.

Yeah, all good until Sonny tried skiing after about 7 hydrocodone and hit a tree that jumped out on front of him! LOL!!@@Noitisnt-ns7mo

Yep. Remember his interviews with Madonna too.

And Harvey Pekar.

All I knew was the 90s Cher..Wow I see why she is so big now

She can also afford it, I sure can't.

Gorgeous she is not...5/10 at best.

​@@mikeblazAre you kidding? Or are you blind?

Doesn’t hold back; can’t stay married long. Yep.

Good body language analysis.

Yep, on the defensive from the get-go--Cher, not Dave.

she was just fishing for a brand new insult

They had FABULOUS CHEMISTRY...😅

Huh!" You're probably right...XD @@mpup54

And Moonstruck!

Moonstruck was amazing but Silkwood was the movie to watch

BS, she a joke

lol

Cher was a Man...looks

Good one.

But her child rearing was a little less spectacular. Stick to what impresses you and you can enjoy your bliss.

She has said a few times she is a man

She was ❤❤❤

I signed in just to comment that also. I've never before been drawn to her as much as here in this video.

I've always felt she was hot!

She was kinda famous for being very beautiful.

wow...indoctrination is strong

Cher is certainly NOT an 'ICON' ... except for maybe drag queen performers 🤣

I kno, right? My daughter turned 46 yrs old three days ago!!

We’d all be stunningly pretty if we had the $$$ and professional people to make us that way. 🙄

We’d all be stunningly pretty if we all had her money to do so.

@@glowilk5377 Would Joseph Merrick be stunningly pretty if he had all her money to do so?

Was.

​@@wildwoodandonyxIs.

Not really...

@@Randysgirl kinda, actually.

@Lena-zc1we she’s ammortal.

Madonna was obnoxious

It's man. Wake up

@@KevinTobin-yd1ku 😂

That is absolutely perfect. I wonder if they thought about it. Man. I'm gonna be laughing about that for a few days.(

@@TK0_23_ Especially if it hadn't been announced that she was going to be on the show and she only appeared when they said #1🙂

That's the note she gave him. "Ask me about my acting career" and he did it quite well looking as if he hadn't read it yet and then glancing at it again at the end and throwing it away. Two professionals acting professionally.

You know it's 2023 & Cher's been Rocking since the 60s? 😅

erm...

She still IS!

She was very young when she hit the big time… you have to be streetwise and smart in order to survive fame.

She really was on guard.

Great Interview, Classic TV...

Is he actually affected or was he good at playing it like he was affected for the sake of humor

@@mikeseal2266 That would be JAY LENO. Dave wore his EMOTIONS on His Sleeve. A Veteran of 20 In Person Shows & was on 1....

I used to love Dave but he became nasty after a while and when I stopped watching or caring except if one of my friends happen to be on the show. Only exception and only for their segment.

@@ChooseCompassion I kinda liked him best when he was at his nastiest. Felt real. I get tired of the dog and pony nice-nice show

So true.. he was like a tongue-tied teenage boy in her presence.

You're exactly right. He's so smitten and flustered, and we are too, omg so beautiful it's stunning.

You can't be serious. Dave is toad.

i can't help comparing him to craig ferguson . . . .is there a connection??

Thought the same exact thing.

Took them as a couple, quite a while to understand that the initial love they had was still there. Truly their business but it is Cher and Sonny and we got to share in their acceptance of the love they had for each other. Frankly, once you have a child with a man that bond is still there after a divorce and life goes on. Only exception becomes if the Dad does not do right by the child and deal with his kid with love. Sonny did that. At the end game they knew that idea and I think Cher truly mourned his passing. Life is complicated and you can't explain it with one "sit down" with someone. who is a stranger like Dave was to Cher, . even if you are Cher.

They had lots of up and downs after the divorce.

She directed "If These Walls Could Talk" (1996).

Correction, she is a real star, not was.

The people who run this channel need to stop uploading videos of old interviews of celebrities the second they pass away. I'm sure if Dave knew how to use the internet, he wouldn't like that they're doing that. They should at least put "RIP" at the beginning of the title, so comments like these wouldn't be necessary. Because unfortunately your comment is very necessary because of the reputation this channel has created for itself.

@@joeybaseball7352 Agreed. 👍 A simple "In Memoriam" (or RIP) in the title would definitely help, especially since Dave's history goes back to the early 80s and many guests from back then are now in their twilight years.

Cher said Letterman is an a*shole and I agree.

Dave could really be an a-hole at times because his ego was so huge and she was strong enough to be herself with him and those parts of him

Just now? You must have never seen Moonstruck?! Watch it! She is AMAZING (and Great movie!)

Thankyou, I will.@@delg1211

@@delg1211silkwood is my favourite of her movies

Have you ever seen David Letterman speechless 😂

It was great !! @@karenherrera3961
