Cher Reveals Her Simple Secrets for Looking So Young at 77
Cher doesn't need to turn back time—she already looks astonishingly youthful at 77.
The iconic singer shared the simple secrets to her ageless appearance while appearing on Good Morning Britain on Sept. 4.
The Grammy-winning artist recalled, "I remember when my friend Paulette [Howell] and I 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 noted that she "can't believe I will be 80 at some point sooner than I wish" and shared that she'll keep her youthful spirit no matter her age by not changing the way she looks. "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," she said.
When co-anchor Susanna Reid asked for further secrets on how she looks "so terrific," Cher said it runs in the ancestry. "The genes in my family are pretty amazing," she admitted.
As for whether she intentionally tries to keep a youthful appearance, she explained, "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."
When Cher turned 77 in May, she acknowledged that she doesn't feel she's aged, tweeting, "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."
