Cher

Cher (born Cherilyn Sarkisian) is a world-famous, US singer and actress.

"In the early 1990s, she contracted the Epstein–Barr virus and developed chronic fatigue syndrome, which left her too exhausted to sustain her music and film careers."

"Cher was diagnosed with CEBV (chronic Epstein-Barr virus) and reputedly went to Brussels, Belgium for treatment and recovered. When asked in a BBC interview if she thought the illness was psychosomatic, Cher replied, “My experience was that it was really a physical illness — but it does make you depressed as well ... Boy, it was devastating for me.”"
