Chaz Bono, the child of music icon Cher, has faced many challenges under the public spotlight. In 2011, at 39, he began his gender transition, with Cher’s support, despite initial struggles. Cher had difficulty accepting Chaz’s sexuality at first, going “ballistic” when she learned he was gay.
Cher, famous for her career alongside Sonny Bono, started as a high school dropout in Los Angeles, working hard to support herself while pursuing acting and singing.
