How Pop Icon Cher Saved an Elephant

The chart-topping singer and Oscar-winning actress Cher has been ruling the entertainment world since the 1960s. Her latest role is that of animal rights activist. Last month, Cher helped relocate an elephant called Kavaan – known as the world’s loneliest elephant – from an Islamabad zoo to a Cambodian refuge. She sat down with Christiane in London to discuss the rescue effort and her career.
