Cher is set to join pop princess Britney Spears on stage this fall when the teen sensation hosts her own cable concert special.
Spears invited the diva to guest on her HBO special, Britney Spears Live From the MGM Grand Las Vegas, which will be broadcast live on November 18th. Spears will perform songs from her third album due November 6th, as well as her hits. No word yet on what the duo will perform but Britney's debut . . . Baby One More Time did feature a cover of the Sonny and Cher classic "The Beat Goes On."
Also in November, Cher is expected to release the follow-up to her comeback hit 1998's Believe. Recorded in Los Angeles and London, the album will feature various new tracks recorded with Believe producer Mark Taylor, Norwegian producers Stargate, and producer/artist Chicane, who collaborated with Bryan Adams on last year's dance hit "Don't Give Up."
During the sessions, Cher also recorded a version of the Thelma Houston classic "Don't Leave Me This Way," but the track is not expected to make her upcoming disc.
