The singer and Oscar winner took to social media to ask fans 'when will I feel old?'

Bob Mackie muse, iconic singer and Academy Award winning actor Cher turned 77 on May 20. Where some might spend the day complaining about aging, Cher had the most refreshing outlook on the situation.

For her special day, Cher returned to her Twitter account—which she hadn't updated since mid-March—and her 3.9 million followers to share how she was feeling.


On her birthday, Cher tweeted:

"Okay, 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."
"What's the deal with the numbers? I'm dyslexic, and numbers are hard for me."

You can read her tweet here:

With 17.1 thousand likes and over 2,000 comments, 1,200 retweets and 1.1 million engagements, it's clear Cher's audience was absolutely eating her attitude up.

In addition to countless birthday wishes, many wrote affirming messages.








Ageism is the bias or discrimination middle-aged and elderly people face.

But Cher is one of those rare exceptions. Her career began in 1965 opposite Sonny Bono which eventually spawned a hit variety show. Her career only seemed to continue to grow with critically acclaimed performances in Silkwood, Mask and Moonlight. Her concerts are still sold out events.

Surely, all the love is helping to keep Cher feeling young!

RFK Jr. Admits That Banning Fluoridated Water Will Cause 'More Cavities'—But He's OK With That

Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was criticized after admitting in a Fox News interview with Harris Faulkner that his proposed fluoridated water ban would likely lead people to have more cavities—but defended the move nonetheless.

While fluoride is not federally mandated in drinking water, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) had long recommended its inclusion. Fluoride helps prevent cavities by strengthening enamel, and numerous studies have shown that fluoridated water reduces tooth decay in both children and adults.

Fox News personality Jesse Watters was widely mocked after he tried to give New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani a scary nickname in the vein of Conan the Destroyer—only for it to backfire considerably.

Watters is the latest member of the GOP to lash out at Mamdani, a democratic socialist who handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary last week.
