Cher has told many tales of her love life in part one her new memoir, including of a horror first date with KISS frontman Gene Simmons that led to a two-year relationship. The 78-year-old singer said Simmons asked her out to a concert to which she brought good friend Kate Jackson, one of the original Charlie’s Angels. Simmons impressed neither of them though when he flirted with them both. However, he later apologized to Cher and called her from Japan, speaking long enough to rack up a $2,800 international phone bill and telling her that he loved her. “We didn’t do so much as kiss at first, because I didn’t want to yet. I’ve always felt that I don’t want to sleep with someone until I’m sure I’ll be happy to wake up next to them the next morning.” Cher’s sister Georganne LaPiere even started a romance with fellow KISS member Paul Stanley. Cher and Simmons did not have a monogamous relationship, and called it quits after two years, when he called up Diana Ross for advice on what to get Cher as a gift and ended up dating her instead.
