During an appearance on Good Morning Britain, Cher, the epitome of ageless beauty, revealed her secrets to maintaining a youthful look as she nears the age of 80.

The iconic singer and actress spoke to hosts Susanna Reid and Ed Balls and made a surprising revelation: she would never cut her hair short or stop wearing jeans.

The remark intrigued Reid, who recently debuted her shorter hairstyle at the age of 52.

Cher elaborated: "I remember when my friend Paulette and I were talking about when we were going to cut our hair and stop wearing jeans. I can't believe I will be 80 at some point, sooner than I wish. And I will still be wearing my jeans and I will still be wearing long hair."

"Genes in my family are pretty amazing," the 'Believe' singer added. Cher also discussed how her views on aging are not just skin deep.

Cher shares her secrets to staying young:

"I'm not trying to feel young, I'm not trying to be young, I am what I am, whatever that means," she mused. This perspective likely resonates with both young and old fans alike, bridging generational gaps.

Host Reid took this "hair debate" to social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. Sharing a before-and-after snap of her shorter hair, she questioned her followers, "Cher told me this morning, women should keep it LONG as they grow older. What do YOU think?"

The singing sensation wasn't just on Good Morning Britain to talk beauty and aging; she also recounted her 2020 mission to rescue Kavaan, known as the World's Loneliest Elephant.

"When I first saw him, you saw him do the swaying thing, which means an elephant is in distress or having a breakdown," Cher said. Her efforts resulted in Kavaan experiencing improved behavior and surroundings, to which she said was "so amazing."

Following her recent split from her 37-year-old boyfriend Alexander 'A.E.' Edwards, Cher took to Twitter to write: "Ok, 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. 'WHATS THE DEAL WITH #’s!? I’m dyslexic & #’s Are hard 4 me. Thank u for staying, I know it’s been hard. Got to go work out. Twitter is harder for me than TweetBot."

Rumors are buzzing about a possible reunion, as a source explained to the Daily Mail, "Cher is mercurial. She actually really cares about A.E."

Cher, who has been twice divorced, has a well-known history of dating younger men, including Tom Cruise and Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora. She has two sons, Chaz Bono with late ex-husband Sonny Bono, and Elijah Blue Allman with late ex-husband Gregg Allman.
