She's Armenian, not Native American. nt msanthrope Nov 2013 #88
I just came back from Twitter. I asked Cher if she was Armenian or American. Major Hogwash Nov 2013 #91
Well, I suppose that's better than falsely claiming Native American ancestry. nt msanthrope Nov 2013 #92
She was born in America, which means that she could have native American ancestry. Major Hogwash Nov 2013 #93
No--she tried claiming that when "Half-Breed" came out, but she couldn't prove that. msanthrope Nov 2013 #94
Yes, it could happen. Major Hogwash Nov 2013 #95
She needs to read "Guns, Germs, and Steel". krispos42 Nov 2013 #77
