Cher, the legendary singer and actress, has left fans in awe with her timeless beauty at the age of 77. During her appearance on Good Morning Britain on September 4, the Grammy-winning artist candidly revealed the straightforward secrets behind her age-defying looks.

Recalling a conversation with her friend Paulette Howell, Cher humorously addressed societal expectations about aging. “I remember when we were talking about when we were going to have to cut our hair and stop wearing jeans because it seemed like in those days that’s what women did—and it hasn’t hit yet,” she shared.

The singer emphasized her determination not to conform to stereotypes, expressing disbelief that she will eventually turn 80. “I can’t believe I will be 80 at some point sooner than I wish,” she said, affirming her commitment to maintaining her youthful spirit by not changing her appearance. “I will still be wearing my jeans, and I will be wearing long hair, and I will still be doing the same stuff I’ve always done.”

Cher, known for her ageless beauty, attributed part of it to her family’s exceptional genetics. “The genes in my family are pretty amazing,” she admitted when co-anchor Susanna Reid inquired about her secrets to looking “so terrific.”

Despite her incredible appearance, Cher revealed that she doesn’t actively pursue a youthful look. “I don’t know if not feeling old makes you younger. I keep up with the trends. I have lots of young friends. I have old friends too. Honestly, I’m not trying to feel young. I’m not trying to be young. I am who I am. I’m just getting along.”

On her 77th birthday in May, Cher took to Twitter to share her perspective on aging. Expressing her confusion about the concept of feeling old, she tweeted, “Ok, Will Someone 🙏🏼PLEASE Tell me…..When Will I Feel OLD 👶🏻.This is ridiculous 🙄. I keep hearing these numbers, but I Honestly can’t understand them. WHATS THE DEAL WITH #’s⁉️ I’m dyslexic & #’s Are hard 4 me.”

Cher’s openness about embracing her true self and rejecting age-related expectations resonates with fans worldwide. Her refusal to conform to societal norms reflects a refreshing perspective on aging and the importance of staying true to one’s identity.
