Cher claimed John Lennon stripped naked during a drunken night at the Playboy Mansion in 1974.
In his new autobiography, Cher: The Memoir, Part Onethe successful singer of Believe recalls having dinner in a Los Angeles restaurant with the Beatle and his friend, singer-songwriter Harry Nilsson, and asking the two men if they wanted to visit Hugh Hefner's famous mansion, on the occasion of his Sunday movie night.

According to Cher, Lennon was “dying” to see the property, so she drove them to the mansion, after which she realized her companions were “more drunk than I thought.”
The 78-year-old, a regular guest at the Playboy Mansion, led Lennon and Nilsson to the pool grotto, where they undressed.
“Laughing and falling over each other, John and Harry followed me into the park. Sitting them down inside the famous cave – it was like a huge cave with one end of the pool going into it – I went to get a drink and when I came back they were naked in the middle of the cave, but still in the water, thank God,” she wrote in the book, published serially by the Daily Mail.
When the pop legend told the pair they weren't “good looks”, they threatened to leave the water.

“I was trying not to laugh, but it was impossible not to because they were threatening to walk around the mansion naked. It took me a while to get them back into their clothes. It was like rounding up drunks,” Cher continued.
She noted that although the mansion was “known for its drunken orgies,” Sunday movie nights were more relaxed events with cocktails, dinners and the latest movies.
