Is Cher Dead?

Canada
November 30, 2016 7:21am CST
I have been a fan of her since she started singing with Sonny years ago. Remember all those wonderful shows on TV - the Sonny and Cher Show... I am one that never opens ads on line, the few times my fingers touched then I end up having to shut down my computer to get rid of the ad. Just now I saw an ad of sorts on Facebook similar to the junk here on mylot - celebrity trash and it said she died.... For a minute I was upset and then said to self - get a grip and see if its true... Of course its not, But I love the title of the link I 'm putting here:
Cher died earlier this week claimed a social media page that instantly went viral. While that’s not true, is it possible for her to get cancer from a real virus she is suffering from?

After so much plastic surgery, she does look like a stuffed mummy.

@JohnRoberts from what I knew about her she has had no surgery, I wish I had her strength to stay as healthy as she can.

she is getting old and I love her too. She looks better than me and she is probably at least 10 years older than I am. Of course I don't have her money nor do I do the plastic surgery thing.

I've not heard anything of her passing or being ill. But.....I don't open those things either and I don't watch those gossip shows on tv either. She's had a very long and prosperous career.

@enlightenedpsych2 There are many reliable sites online to verify things too. NPR and Snopes are a couple.

I loved her when she was young. I always use Snope for the real truth. Glad she's still alive.

Snopes is a good thing. I have so many friends (most of them conservative, coincidentally) that forward so much garbage. Fact-checking is becoming a lost art.

she is one of the great singer and I do like few songs by her. It is sad to know about her demise. I pray god may her soul rest in peace.

We see so many lies online, we don't know what is true. Especially if it is a politician speaking.

I never open those so-called news items either - the latest one I saw was that Donald Trump's wife was divorcing him.

I have heard this several times over the years about Cher. I remember reading it a lot about Robin Williams and that's why when he really did die, I didn't believe it at first.

@PainsOnSlate Yes, it really is. I guess any kind of publicity is good for celebrities.

I guess being a celebrity, one would get a lot of this crap...because it makes money for the ones who write it - fake news is a moneymaker.

I never understood why people spread hoaxes about celebrity deaths. It's creepy.

It is creepy, but they probably do it so they can get you to open it and see something else.

Yes, she is alive but I believe she does have some health issues.
