Cher bids farewell to the stage with final album release
Legendary singer Cher, at 76 years old, has confirmed her departure from the stage after more than 60 years in the music industry. During a meeting at the Lyceum Theatre in London, she announced that her upcoming album will be her last.
According to information provided by the "Daily Mail," Cher participated in an event promoting her memoirs on Tuesday. During a conversation with the audience, the artist revealed that she intends to slow down her work pace. However, before doing so, she plans to release her first studio album since 2013.
"This is probably my last album that I’m gonna do," admitted Cher. "I’m really excited. They are great songs and I’m just really excited that I’m doing it," the singer was quoted as saying by the source.
Cher releases the last album of her career
The singer has not lost her characteristic sense of humor. She joked about her age, saying, "I’m older than dirt now, OK? I’m the oldest person I meet in almost every room unless I’m in an old folks’ home."
Cher also admitted that she has started giving advice to younger women, encouraging them to accept themselves and enjoy life. She said, calling herself "a hottie," that she doesn't care how old anyone is, they should always feel beautiful.
The artist speaks openly about the challenges of aging. "IThe popstar confessed that she has struggled to adapt to aging and said she has always felt how she's felt and doesn't know how to change that despite nearing 80 years old," reports Daily Mail. She added that she likes being in the company of young people because she's not ready to come to terms with her age. "I like young people because a lot of my friends don’t want to have that much fun. They can just go off and be old fogies," she stated.
Meanwhile, Cher’s family is expressing concern about her relationship with 38-year-old music producer Alexander "AE" Edwards, whom she has been dating for two years. The artist's relatives are worried that she does not see his "true intentions," especially since, as sources claim, Edwards is showing "one red flag after another."
The family's concern intensified after Cher revealed in May that she is working with AE on a new album, giving him creative control and paying significant sums. "Cher's family has given up on trying to convince her that Alexander does not have her best interests in mind," a "Daily Mail" source said. "She claimed that he was not after her money but now he is literally getting paid an enormous amount of money for this new album and she is giving him creative control of it."
