Cher Slams Her ‘Mask’ Director as an ‘Asshole’ and ‘So F—ing Arrogant’: ‘He Was a Pig’ and ‘Not Nice to the Girls in the Film’
Cher "really disliked" working with "Mask" director Peter Bogdanovich, who she calls arrogant and a pig.
Bogdanovich was a bigger challenge on “Mask.” The film told the true story of Roy L. “Rocky” Dennis, a boy with a rare genetic disorder called craniodiaphyseal dysplasia that causes disfiguring cranial enlargements. Bogdanovich, who died in January 2022, once said in an interview that Cher was difficult to work with and “didn’t trust anybody, especially men.” During one day on set, Cher remembered Bogdanovich “comes in and says, ‘Cher, where do you think we should film this scene?’ And I say, ‘Well, the kitchen is working pretty well, why don’t we do that again?’ The next morning he arrives on set eating an egg sandwich and starts screaming that he’s not going to let me direct this film; I’m a nobody; he can cut me out at any moment.
