Update: Overzealous Cher fan arrested outside Tootsies

 Cher’s surprise visit to Tootsie’s, Nashville ended in an arrest for one admirer.

Cher and a boyfriend type and a few other posse members were put in the VIP front-window booth when she got there before midnight. And staffers tried to keep other customers away.

But one guy, Calvin Houghland, apparently just wouldn’t leave Cher alone, Metro Police said. Officers said Houghland insisted his stepfather worked with Cher when she was performing with now late ex-husband Sonny Bono.

Houghland kept trying to talk to her, even grabbed for her, according to police, so Tootsie’s staffers bounced him out. But he is alleged to have come back to the Lower Broadway honky tonk, so police arrested him.

Officers asked Cher if she wanted to prosecute and she said no. Despite that, Houghland was charged with public intoxication and disorderly conduct. A judge ordered $3,000 bail.

I’m still not sure why Cher is in town, but I do know that she, her boyfriend type and another couple flew into Nashville on a private jet.
