Cher Just Admitted That She and Aging Aren’t Friends: “I’d Do Anything To Be 70 Again”

While plenty of celebrities have learned to celebrate their age as they get older, Cher just revealed that she’s not nearly as excited about the concept. In a new interview with Today, the Grammy-winner opened up about the 25th anniversary of her 1998 hit, “Believe” — and her reaction to the milestone couldn’t have been more hilarious.

“How amazing is it that “Believe” is 25 years old?” the singer was asked by TODAY's Harry Smith. “It’s not that amazing, okay?” she quipped. “Pisses me — It pisses the fuck out of me … It just is like what is this?!”

Smith followed her reply by asking, “So you and age, you’re not friends?”

“No!” Cher, who turned 77 in May, replied. “My mother [Georgia Holt] didn’t mind, but I do. I hate it…I’d give anything to be 70 again!”

This isn’t the first time that the musician has opened up about her disdain towards aging. Back in Sept., Cher got candid about the topic yet again while talking about the fashion and beauty trends she refuses to give up — no matter how old she gets — during an appearance on Good Morning Britain.

“I just can’t believe I will be 80 at some point, sooner than I wish,” she said at the time. “And I will still be wearing my jeans and I will still be wearing long hair and I will still be doing the same stuff I’ve always done.”

She also reiterated the sentiment when talking to People last year, saying, “The genes in my family are pretty amazing. 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.”
