Cher -
Joanna Berns
Runner-up of the BBC's "The One And Only" tribute
show, Joanna Berns, 35, is from Hertfordshire.
People have been telling Joanna that she looked
like Cher since she was 16, but it wasn't until
ten years ago that she became a Cher tribute
act. Joanna Berns now performs both nationally
and internationally doing shows every
week.
In 1998, Joanna finally put together a Cher
tribute act. Today, she makes a living by
performing as Cher and her successful career has
taken her around the world; she performs her
tribute act yearly on a Caribbean cruise ship
and last year she performed as Cher in Dubai.
Her favourite Cher songs are Gypsies, Tramps and
Thieves and Love and Understanding.
HAS
ANYONE EVER TOLD YOU THAT YOU LOOK LIKE CHER? - For the last few years, this is a question Joanna has been
asked many times. The similarity in looks between CHER-the
multi-million album selling artist and Joanna are of course
coincidental but the vocal and performing skills are not.
Appearing for the first time on stage at the age of eight,
to an audience of two thousand people, Joanna has been
performing ever since. Having trained in Musical Theatre,
she then went on to perform in a variety of Theatre shows,
touring both Britain and Europe, featured on Television,
including a VH1 commercial as a Cher look-a-like and
commercially released studio recording sessions.
During the last few years, Joanna has performed with and
managed many successful acts, working with varied music
styles and formats. Playing a vast amount of venue’s and
events, from corporate functions, weddings, universities,
and military bases, to pubs, clubs and festivals in England
and abroad to audiences up to 10,000 people.
With continuous comparisons made by clients and audience
alike to Joanna’s voice and looks resembling Cher, Joanna
finally put together this Tribute and has not looked back
since January 1998,
Offering a highly professional sound and look-a-like show,
featuring song’s spanning Cher’s entire career, from the
sixties to current day, this tribute is available solo or
with a live band. Exciting costumes and many recognizable
hit songs make for the ultimate evening’s entertainment.
Songs include:
I GOT YOU BABE (IF I COULD) TURN BACK TIME
BELIEVE GYPSIES, TRAMPS AND THIEVES
I FOUND SOMEONE JUST LIKE JESSE JAMES
STRONG ENOUGH THE SHOOP SHOOP SONG
WALKING IN MEMPHIS ALL OR NOTHING
