Diva Report...

Damn it! It has been confirmed that the Vegas show from Bette Midler will NOT receive a DVD release. What is the point of filming concerts like this one, only to have a butchered down version shown on TV - and nothing else?!? Grrrrr - and there has been no word yet about a DVD release (or a TV broadcast for that matter) from Cher either (her Vegas show finished a few weeks ago). I do know however that there had not been any recording made from that show when there were only a few weeks left of it... Instead, the diva is busy working on a new album!



Reports spread like wildfire after an interview with country music producer Mark Bright surfaced, reporting that the music icon was in the process of recording a country-pop album.
"Cher knows that her listeners also listen to country music," Mark told Silk & Denim Music back in January, regarding Cher's decision to dabble with her inner cowgirl. "So she felt it was a natural thing to develop a country music relationship."

She was indeed in the beginning stages of a country project, but has since shifted her artistic focus on the release of a "a dance-oriented album," her spokesperson tells HITFIX.
What made her change her mind? Maybe it was the success of her current single, 'You Haven't Seen the Last of Me,' which recently topped Billboard's Dance Club chart. Her latest No. 1 gave the living legend the honor of having a Billboard chart-topper for the last six decades. The track appeared on the 'Burlesque' soundtrack and won a Golden Globe.

No other details have been released, but no matter the genre, Cher fans can expect new music sometime later this year.
