Cher’s youthful looks wow fans as she follows strict anti-ageing routine

If I Could Turn Back Time hitmaker Cher has prompted fans to wonder if she’s done just that, as the star, who is celebrating her 77th birthday today, never seems to age.

Despite her advancing years, Cher has managed to stay wrinkle-free, and recently wowed with her toned figure while storming the catwalk at Paris Fashion Week last year for Balmain, dressed in a silver spandex bodysuit.

Back in March, Cher looked fabulous as she sat front row at the Versace show, for which she modelled another skintight outfit from the designer’s latest collection.

Fans rushed to compliment the Hollywood star on photos she shared to Instagram from the event, with one person commenting: “Cher looks fantastic here….whatever she is doing as she gets older, she is doing it right. More than can be said for some other ageing pop queens!”

Another fan branded Cher the “most beautiful woman EVERRRR”, while a third Instagram user equally praised her as “forever beautiful”.

Although the star has admitted to having had cosmetic procedures, she mainly credits her healthy lifestyle with her ability to defy ageing.

Cher previously told People magazine that she’s consistently stuck to the same anti-ageing methods, which she spilled in full in her book Forever Fit.

The showbiz icon revealed at the time: “The most important thing is to give yourself a fighting chance.

“I quit smoking. I don’t do drugs. I never drink coffee and almost never drink alcohol or eat red meat, so I’m way ahead of the game.”

She later admitted during an appearance on Today that her only vice is chocolate, telling hosts: “All right. I don’t drink, I don’t smoke, I don’t do drugs – I never have.

“I work out. I’m pretty good with my diet, except I like chocolate.”

Cher also lucked out with her skin routine after discovering an adult acne treatment in the 1970s, which also contains anti-ageing benefits.

“With Dr. Arnold Klein in Beverly Hills I began using Retin-A to treat chronic cystic acne, and I’ve been on a prescription for Retin-A for 10 years now,” she divulged to People magazine.

The Believe singer added: “I know Retin-A works. I have used it to control my acne.

“But what I learned is what everyone else has discovered over the past couple years: that Retin-A also acts as a de-aging agent.”

Aside from her pearls of wisdom about maintaining a healthy diet and exercise regime as she ages, Cher also admitted to having undergone some plastic surgery over the years.

One cosmetic procedure the singer-turned-actress confessed to having is a nose job, as she knew the surgery would make her feel happier and more confident while on the big screen in movies.

Explaining her decision to get the nose job, Cher insisted: “People should do what makes them happy.

“Frankly, when I saw my face 10 feet tall in close-ups on a movie screen, I wanted my nose done because it really bothered me.”
