Calvin Hutton Houghland Arrested For Harassing Cher

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A Nashville man has been charged with disorderly conduct and public intoxication after he repeatedly harassed Cher at the famed honky-tonk Tootsies Orchid Lounge.

Police say 36-year-old Calvin Hutton Houghland tried to make contact with Cher early Wednesday morning and was asked to leave the club. He complied, police said, but returned a short time later and grabbed Cher by the waist as the singer-actress sat in a roped-off area of the lounge.

Houghland was escorted from the bar, but returned again. When security blocked his attempts to approach the singer, Houghland called police to say he'd been assaulted.

Police say Cher declined to prosecute but Houghland asked to be arrested.

Houghland failed a self-requested field sobriety test. His bond was set at $3,000.

Oh I love Cher and the way she used to make us laugh when we were so boring in America./ She and her hubby Sonny, and those skits....and her big bobble jewelry in the laundry room...oh, I'll never forget how she made me laugh.

She bought a Spanish Mansion that the cute actor from Gottcha is living in now. When Tony Curtis owned it he payed 1.5 million, and when he sold it to Sonny and Cher bought it from TC they payed him 5 million. It was a huge profit for Tony. He realized real estate was the way to financial freedom.

Cher's a glamazon, she can handle that little pipsqueak on her own.
