Newly minted Rock\u00a0& Roll Hall of Famer Cher<\/strong>\u00a0previously had some <\/span>choice words<\/span><\/a> for\u00a0the organization because she kept getting\u00a0overlooked for induction. And while she doesn\u2019t take back what she said, she\u2019s certainly singing a different tune now.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI said something once, but I meant it,\u201d she told ABC News on the red carpet at the Oct. 19 induction ceremony in Cleveland. \u201cAnd now it’s a little bit different. I’m feeling a little bit more love, you know? And they finally got to me, y’know? I don’t know what I had to do, but finally they got to me.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Backstage at the ceremony, Cher said she was vocal about her feelings towards the Rock Hall in the past because she’d had a \u201clove-hate relationship\u201d with the organization.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt was like, I thought, ‘What do I have to do to f****** do,’ you know, ‘to be inducted into this place?’\u201d she said.\u00a0 But now, she added ” \u201cI can say that I’m happy that I’m in … because if I didn’t feel like it, I wouldn’t say it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

And Cher told ABC News that one thing that changed her mind about was being associated with all her fellow musicians who are part of the Hall..<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt’s the people I’m being honored with and the people who’ve already been honored,\u201d she says. \u201cThat’s the part that makes me feel good.”<\/span><\/p>\n

And now that\u00a0Cher’s in as a solo artist,\u00a0she said the next step would for her and her late ex-husband and singing partner, Sonny Bono<\/strong>, to be recognized for the music they made as Sonny & Cher<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI think that we deserve it,” she said backstage. “Even if we weren’t exactly rock and roll, we represented music. We were kind of corny, but we were very avant-garde for what was happening at the time, y’know?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
