Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Sonny & Cher were an American husband-and-wife pop duo, consisting of Salvatore Philip "Sonny" Bono (February 16, 1935 – January 5, 1998) and Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian; May 20, 1946).Sonny started in the music industry working with Phil Spector, writing and co-writing songs including "You Do to Me" (made famous by Sam Cooke) and "Needles and Pins" (made famous by The Searchers) prior to his marriage to Cher 1964. From there, Sonny wrote "I Got You Babe" and "The Beat Goes On", which became major early hits that led to a momentous career from the mid-'60s. The fame also led to the creation of The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour (1971–72), as well as a further two albums before the duo divorced in 1975. Leaving the bitterness of said divorce behind, they starred in The Sonny & Cher Show (1976–77) and had two brief reunion performances, last performing "I Got You Babe" on Late Night with David Letterman in 1987.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Cher also has a solo career with its own page, while Sonny would go into politics, becoming mayor of Palm Springs, California from 1988 to 1992, then being elected to the House of Representatives from 1995 to his death in 1998 from a skiing accident. Bono had acquired infamy among copyright critics for writing the Copyright Term Extension Act while in office. Said act gave an additional 20 years to all copyrights, and the infamy made it known as the "Sonny Bono Act", or just as derisively the "Mickey Mouse Protection Act". | |

One-Book Author: While Cher sustained a solid solo career even when they were still together, Sonny released just one solo album, 1967's Inner Views.note He also released two 1965 singles, the first of which—"Laugh at Me"—became a Top 10 hit. The album saw Bono try his hand at Psychedelic Rock, with several long songs, include the 12-minute opening track "I Just Sit There". A huge flop, the album has amassed a So Bad, It's Good reputation over the ensuing decades. | |

Silly Love Songs: "I Got You Babe", where even where the subjects of the song were young and poor, they still got each other. | |

Everything Sounds Sexier in French: The duo demonstrated this on their variety show by having Cher sing "Hit the Road, Jack" in French. It came out sounding like a romantic serenade. | |
