Cher, who is popularly known as the ‘Goddess of Pop,’ has an impressive career spanning over six decades in the entertainment industry. Cher holds the record for the first woman who had songs charting on the Billboard Hot 100 for up to five consecutive decades.
Recently, Madonna became the second woman to ever achieve the same feat as Cher. The ‘Queen of Pop’ as she is fondly called by her fans, hit the record with her song “Popular.”
