Arkansas Weekend: Cher and Cher alike

Fans of famed singer-actor-performer-fashion plate Cher should be forgiven if some are reminded of that famous quote from a wily old 20th-century politician from Arkansas, who once noted “Just because I said it doesn’t make it so,” Jack W. Hill writes in Thursday's Arkansas Weekend section.

At least this time around, the tour is called the “Dressed to Kill Tour,” or the more techie-sounding “D2K,” rather than, let’s say, the confessional “Hey, I’m Back Again Tour.” Her eighth solo concert tour is promoting her 25th studio album, Closer to the Truth, released Sept. 20. The album reached No. 3 on the Billboard top 200 albums chart.

How else to make sense of Cher, like Willie Nelson, on the road again, after dramatically going around a few years ago on what she termed “Living Proof — The Farewell Tour” between 2002 and 2005?
