I love planes, I mean I love flying. I'm flying into Phoenix, Cher's Dressed To Kill Tour opens in three days. Omg I can't breathe, I'm so excited. I'm meeting up with some Cher lovelies, in fact we're sharing a room in the hotel. The last time I saw them was when Cher was performing at the plaza, well that was when they first met me. Crap, my phone is on thirty percent, I would tweet everybody but I've got to save it.

Everyone is screaming, no actually, just little children as the plane descends. I cannot wait to get off, get my luggage and meet the people that love this woman as much as I do! I need to buy some merchandise, I had a look at Cher.com and there's a lot of really great t shirts and there's a hoodie that I desperately need to buy. So I don't work for the paps any more, I pretty much got fired. But it's okay, I work the average nine to five job... At office works.

My direction skills are pretty poor, I have to be honest. I'm trying to get to the thing that spins around, you know what I mean- the thing that has your suitcases on it! I'm running around in circles, looking like a headless chook. Lord help me! Omg they are here!!!! My twitter people, kaitybby and Jillybird and I can't remember his twitter name. It doesn't matter, the land of my people have seen me!

"Hello!" I say as I drop my luggage and drape my arms around them. Soon we're smiling and laughing, but I haven't a clue as to why. Kaity is from Western Australia and Jilly is American, I'm from Melbourne. Drake is American, and he's so funny, damn I love this guy! So we're trying to sort out where everybody is going to sleep when suddenly Jilly sneezes and we can hear her from downstairs and Kaity shouts "God bless you child!" We burst out in laughter.

I don't know whether we've all got the same idea, I think we do, we need to buy Cher merchandise! Kaity and I go nuts, she buys a grey top that has the 70's Cher flicking her hair and this d2k black jumper. I buy the CHER hoodie.

I start going ballistic, Cher has just tweeted some new pictures, one of her with a long straight and red wig. I can't wait to see the tour book!

"I have to organise my Cher outfit, if you know what I mean," Jilly says quickly, in a daze as she stares at Cher's new photo.

"I have to reetweet that, Oh my Lord," Says Drake who's on his iPhone typing like mad. I smile to myself, God Bless you Cher.

Kaity is "omg-ing" and laughing. I love these people, I am so excited.

'Looking sexy as usual' I tweet this to Cher and she replies to me with a heart emoji. I'm so overjoyed, I show the others.

There's one day until Cher's show, twenty four hours.

"Kaity, hold me," I say giggling. I'm not going to lie, I've never been to concert before. This will be my first. I've loved Cher since I was eight years old and her Farewell Tour aired in 2005 some time in April. I'm waiting for the costumes, the music and the lights.

This is it. Today is the big day. I'm pumped! I rush to my seat and watch the arena fill up almost instantly. It's a full house. There isn't one free seat. The lights dim and Drake, Kaity, Jilly and I start clapping and screaming. I know it's bad for my vocal cords but I don't care!

Images flash across a large screen and there's dance music playing, it's a remix of Cher's songs. Short clips and parts of her music videos play and the crowd erupts. There's the early days, Sonny and Cher and then there's now. The videos and music stops suddenly, my heart is pounding. This is it. The Cherest show on earth....
