I admire that Cher admits to her surgery. The other celebs get everything she's had done and more. Good for her for being real about it.

[@negativenancy4805]

I hate how people believe it’s any of their business in the first place.

[@ayoutubegirl5933]

People only care because the celebrities that try to hide it or lie about it are acting like their beauty came from a skin care line they are promoting or branding. It's an expectation that cam never be achieved unless you go under the knife or get injected. That's why it matters. Some of us see passed the BS but there are a lot of desperate women that believe these celebrities are telling the truth and buy the crap they are selling.

i love she never lies and that is why no one talks about her surgeries or that she had them.

She is an ICON with all the meaning of the word. She was a PIONEER. Everything she wore, said and the image she gave out was really dare and very ahead of her time. Her style inspires the style of today's models. That's when you realize that a woman is TIMELESS and ICONIC

Kids today have no idea the craziness Cher caused with the "Turn back time" video, when you listened to the song on the radio, you were thinking it was a sappy love song, then turned on MTV/VH1 and your Jaw dropped ....That and the Madonna "Like a Prayer" defined the late 80"s for me! what a time to be a kid/teen/young adult! Ahhh the memories!😀

[@danavixen6274]

YES!!!!

[@petersdotter1]

Thanks for mentioning her Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. She found the strength to make later films, which is remarkable. There are up to 5-6 million of us worldwide, and few of us reach her level of recovery. She is an inspiration to all those who suffer from debilitating illness. Good bio, BTW.

[@kellicat6352]

Cher gave me confidence to wear what I want. I had a slim frame and tall and worked hard to keep my figure. I am so glad I went for it while attractive and young. Cher could hardly wear clothes and still look classy. That is hard to do. It is the way you carry yourself. I love that she is against drugs and alcohol. I saw Sonny and Cher in Concert when I was young. It was so awesome! Bob Mackie and Cher were both a fantastic muse and designer pair. Love her 🎶 music! Iconic.

[@paulsolon6229]

Ugh

[@melaninqueen2413]

Cher was and still is beautiful. Yes, she broke barriers and started trends and wore the most beautiful clothing ever! But what everyone has wrong is that she is does not have Native American ancestry, at all! I was waiting for her to mention this. Everyone claims Cherokee, but never bothers to do the paper trail! Cher's "exotic" look comes from her Armenian side.

[@izalizbug]

I saw her live a few years ago and my best friend and I were the only people under 25 in our stadium section. The older folks around us were surprised by how many songs we knew and how we were just as excited to see her as they were. She is an icon for all generations.

I never realized how Cher really appropriated Native American culture and dress. When I was younger I thought she was Native American. I had no idea she was Armenian. I love Cher I always loved her style and her voice !

[@okeydokey9693]

She used to claim Native American back in the day ,also her song half breed,I thought was about being white and indian.

[@mariajones9102]

Her mother had Cherokee ancestry. It is one thing to appropriate and another to respect and appreciate, Cher doing the latter.

[@y2klove581]

I’m guessing cause it was in the 70s or 80s where most people weren’t educated on cultural appropriation (edit: not saying Cher is a bad person btw I don’t know her obviously)

[@TheBOG3]

@@mariajones9102 Cher's mom is just claiming what so many other people claimed and it turned out not to be true when they did DNA testing. A lot of people got that through their family when it wasn't true or they lived in a town with a Native American name and claim they were Native American. The other thing is some people claim to be Native Americans so they could get money back in the day and that's how it went through the family that there was a Native in the family when there really wasn't, just liars.

[@geegee4010]

I remember her stating she was half Native American. I didn't know she was Armenian until she praised Kim Kardashian.

[@ursalaminor8457]

I met Cher in 1977 at Aspen Highlands, Colorado. I came off a lift and zoomed out then needed to work to get up a small hill near the lodge. There she was standing still in a powder blue two piece ski suit, the top was puffy and striped in a monotone satin. (Memory serves…I was working as a fashion designer and illustrator for Sport Obermeyer). I said, “Well hello, how are you today?” She looked at me rather shocked and said, “Well I’m fine thank you.” Something felt like she wasn’t used to being treated normally. I was surprised that I was taller than she. You don’t forget meeting Cher, even in such a mundane way. Good job filmmaker!

[@charlitamarshall7067]

She set the path for Madonna, Lady GaGa, Brittney Spears and so many others. As did Diana Ross who Bob Mackey design for and not to forget Carol Bernette. All 3 built similar.

She is such an amazing entertainer. I have always find her breathtaking. And her plastic surgery has to be done by monks. Because I have never seen any actress or singer look so natural.

Cher is the ultimate icon! Her outfits and collaborations with Bob Mackie are so beautiful, creative, and unapologetic. Yes I have had a vampire facial and no I would not do it again. The smell was really bad. Not sure if that was solely my blood or what they mixed in with it. But I hope I look half as good as Cher when I’m in my 70s.

She is the original independent woman, a pioneer, groundbreaker, has lived her life on her own terms, speaks her mind without fear, is genuine, honest, funny, grounded, clean from substance abuse, she is a strong, powerful, self made woman. She is intelligent, multi-talented, and kind. The full package. She has had to restart her life more than once. I have a lot of respect and admiration for Cher. She is the kind of woman to look up to. ❤ Apart from that, she has ground-breaking style, and is truly beautiful and exotic, was so before and after the surgeries. Great video. ❤

[@lesliewoolnough7871]

I ❤️ that she didn’t smoke or drink , She’s Amazing

[@hameley12]

She is super talented. Too bad her fans didn't follow her lifestyle on the 'Don't Smoke. Don't Drink. No to Drugs' many young people would have been or could have made a difference if they had made it up to their 50s or 60s. Other than that I love her music and her lifestyle, my grandmother used to listen and still does listen to Cher's music. She taught us through her [Cher] legacy to say no to that toxic lifestyle and follow a healthy lifestyle. The one thing she kept from us was that Cher had surgery done. I guess Grandma didn't want us kids getting surgeries or tattoos. 😅😎 I got a tattoo at eighteen years. Rock n' Roll style.

I was a Cher fan, still am. Loved certain songs and her looks and fashion. Also appreciate the fact that she sent water to the people in Michigan when the tragedy happened.

[@sabrinaacevedo2110]

Actually her favorite actress was Audrey Hepburn not Katherine. She had said it multiple times in interviews and how she felt that Audrey was the only actress in Hollywood that she could relate to because Audrey was more like a tomboyish brunette with a ballerina petite figure and not like a blonde bombshell with more figure like Marilyn Monroe. Fun fact. :) overall I love all of them 💗

[@uhdudewhy7980]

In 1980 Cher was in a band with Les Dudek called Black Rose. I think they released an album (which I haven't heard) and saw them perform some of their songs on TV. In 1996 she starred in and directed the 3rd (last) part of a movie called If These Walls Could Talk. That was the best part imho followed closely by the 1st part. I've never been a dance-song fan/listener but "Believe" is a pretty cool song.

[@gwendolynmurray8201]

When I was a child in the 60s I would see Sonny and Cher in black and white on various dance shows. I even saw them on Shindig which was a dance show for teenagers along with American Bandstand. When my mom purchased a color tv(the four of us drove her crazy begging for a color tv) I would watch the Sonny and Cher show to see what Cher was wearing! Every week I would be blown away by Bob Mackie costumes for Cher. She never disappointed and I loved the guests she had on the show. Miss Cher worked her outfits overtime! The Sonny and Cher Show is on DVD. I plan to purchase it asap! I have the 331/3 vinyl record of the disco single Take Me Home. I want and need to meet her to ask her to sign it for me. She is major influence to me. Constantly! Love her madly!
