Hollywood legend Tom Hanks shared a nostalgic story about his brief encounter with Cher during his youth while working as a bellman at the Oakland Hilton Hotel in the 1970s. Tom recounted the incident during an appearance on 'The Graham Norton Show,' where he was joined by Cher, Julia Roberts, and Timothee Chalamet.
Hanks recalled delivering Cher's bag to her hotel room when she was with one of her rock-and-roll husbands. Cher expressed surprise at the revelation, and Tom continued, "I knocked on the door and I put it down, and you came out and said, 'Yeah, that's it. Thanks, kid.' And that was it. So I have worked for Cher."
He estimated the encounter took place around 1975 or 1976, during Cher's well-publicized relationship with Gregg Allman, the frontman of the Allman Brothers Band, whom she married in June 1975.
During the conversation on the talk show, Tom praised Cher, expressing admiration for her role in the film 'Mamma Mia! 2,' calling it "motion picture perfection" when she performed "Fernando." Cher, however, admitted that she isn't a big fan of herself and doesn't like watching her own films or listening to her own music.
The talk also involved Chalamet and Roberts sharing their favorite Cher films ('Moonstruck' and 'Silkwood'), prompting Tom to suggest a group outing to the cinema. "I think we should all go to the theatre and watch Cher's movies right now," he said.
