'Extra' Exclusive: Cher on Aging, Dating and Son Chaz Bono

"Extra's" Jerry Penacoli sat down with superstar Cher before the performance of her new single "Woman's World" at Rasputin Nightclub in West Hollywood. "Extra" was with the singer every step of the way. With no topic off limits, Cher opened up about her age, dating, and son Chaz Bono.

[@kristinalowe8627]

Cher seems so humble, down to earth and kind. Still ageless! WOW!

[@wotan10950]

I have to admit that Cher looks damn good, even with surgery. So many other stars get face lifts and they look dreadful, but it works well for her. And she's honest about it, and honest about everything. So I have a lot of respect for her. And she was great in Moonstruck, although it was a long time ago.

[@YosvaniRamos-Ballet]

Agree with you. She looks amazing!

Cher is one of the few that did plastic surgery right. She doesn't look like a monster or too "snatched" beyond recognition.

[@virginiaviola5097]

Cher is a wonderful, open and honest person. She has never been afraid to admit to her struggles and she has always kept it real, which is why she is an icon.

[@WynterRayn19]

Its like Cher is immortal lmao, she doesnt age! Well all be dead while shes still standing singing 'Believe' LMFAO.

WynterRayn19 She looks plastic. Look at her mouth. Sooner or later the bailing wire is gonna loosen and she'll have to use Hay Hooks to hold her facial skin in place.

[@royery]

She must sleep in a cryogenic pod because no matter how many surgeries you have done.... age and the surgery effects will still show, and in her case, she has managed to maintain that flawless skin and exact shape.

[@pinkpastelhearts]

honestly if you take care of your body, watch what you eat, exercise, use herbal and natural organic stuff for your face and skin, you will accomplish looking ageless, you just got to put effort into it, and sometimes people are blessed genetically with ageing beautifully, she still is a beautiful woman and has such a awesome voice.

[@allset9284]

No, it does catch up to you eventually - it's called life - and no one, no matter how much they try through cosmetic surgery are ever going to stop the process of death - it's a drying up process - nothing more - we weren't "designed" to live for ever so if we are lucky enough to escape death from accidental or sickness related death, you will see the natural drying up process for those of us, who are lucky enough, to live long enough to old age. Accept this great gift you have been given and stop trying to defeat what you have no control over.

[@musicloverarmeda]

I mean this only as the highest compliment, but she reminds me of Barbara Streisand in this interview. Her accent a little, the way her cheeks are and she has more of a pointy face, rather than a flat face, her star quality. Both of these women have been my highest role models since I was a kid, I'm 53. I have a face shape like Cher's, just wish I had her hair, you know, before the wigs. lol

[@jeanjones1846]

You can run but you can't hide... Too many stars and known people like Linda Thompson, Jackson, Presley, and many others have opted to have plastic put into their faces. It's obvious this procedure is not perfected regardless of who does this or how much $$$ is handed over, be it, Beverly Hills or Mexico. We see this so many times, overdone and sometimes, a reconstructed train wreck. Looks like their face collided with a wall and still swollen. Who would do this to iron out a wrinkle? Or risk, ultimately looking like a different person and sometimes a freak attacked by some man-eating virus?

[@itsALLartVideos]

***** Soft filter in post-processing. If you look carefully, you'll see that the entire face area is soft, you can't see hairs, you can't see any definition at all, but look at the shots of the interviewer as reference, they are much crisper. It's probably in ANY agreement that she signs to be on the air.
