It’s no surprise that female celebrities often face negative comments on the internet, and Cher is no exception. The 77-year-old singer recently faced criticism and concern about her age after her participation in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. While some fans worried about her walking, others came to her defense.

Cher wowed the crowd during the parade with her performance of “DJ Play a Christmas Song,” a hit that climbed to No. 3 on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Digital Song Sales chart in October 2023. In a recent interview with Billboard, she explained that her festive songs, like Mariah Carey’s, are not solely about Christmas but are “just great songs.”

After the parade, Cher was spotted leaving her hotel, donning an all-black outfit and matching boots. Accompanied by a bodyguard, she gracefully made her way to a waiting car. Entertainment photographer Elder Ordonez captured the moment on Instagram, and it didn’t take long for fans to comment on Cher’s appearance.

While some expressed concern about her walking, others quickly came to her defense. One user pointed out that she is 77 years old and challenged critics to see how well they would walk at the same age. Cher’s age has been a topic of conversation before, with the singer wondering when she would start to feel old on social media.

During an interview on Good Morning Britain, Cher admitted that the reality of old age hadn’t fully hit her yet. She playfully mentioned that she can’t believe she’ll be 80 soon, but she still intends to continue wearing jeans and maintaining her signature long hair. When asked about her secret to looking youthful, Cher attributed it to good genetics in her family.

As we admire Cher’s resilience and age-defying spirit, let’s remember that age is just a number. Cher continues to inspire us all with her talent and style. So, let’s embrace getting older with the same grace and confidence as this legendary singer!
