"The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" is ready to turn back time with a special, first-time Broadway takeover telecast dedicated to all things Cher, one of the Pop culture icons of our generation and the only artist ever to have a #1 single on a Billboard chart for six consecutive decades (1960's-2010's).
The telecast, which will air Monday, April 15, will feature Cher as well as the stars of the Broadway musical "The Cher Show" - Stephanie J. Block, Teal Wicks and Micaela Diamond for an hour of talk, music and fun.
In addition to chatting with Fallon and with the three women who portray her on stage, Cher will perform "Turn Back Time" with Block and "You Haven't Seen the Last of Me" with Block, Wicks and Diamond.
Previous "Tonight Show" special takeover broadcasts have included music superstars Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande and Miley Cyrus.
From Universal Television and Broadway Video, "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" is executive produced by Lorne Michaels and Jim Bell serves as Executive in Charge. The show is produced by Gerard Bradford, Katie Hockmeyer and Jamie Granet-Bederman.
