Music legend Cher is facing fresh scrutiny over her appearance as friends reportedly fear her latest cosmetic procedures have gone too far

The 79-year-old star has long been open about her history with plastic surgery, but insiders have claimed that her face now appears strained and altered

Some have pointed to her romance with a much younger partner as fueling her desire to keep going under the knife.

Highlights
  • Cher’s friends have stated that her latest cosmetic work has gone too far, leaving her face looking “pulled” and “stretched.”
  • Many have linked her appearance changes to insecurities over her relationship with 38-year-old Alexander “A.E.” Edwards.
  • The music icon has openly admitted to facelifts and other procedures, while doctors have credited a mix of lifestyle habits and subtle tweaks.

    According toRadarOnline, friends are concerned that Cher’s features no longer carry the natural softness that made her a timeless icon.

    Instead, they describe an overly altered look marked by a strained expression, exaggerated lips, taut skin, and what some called a “melting” effect. 

    “She’s been indulging for years, but it’s really catching up to her,” one insider claimed, adding that the star’s appearance now looks “pulled” and “stretched.”

    The whispers aren’t just about the music legend’s appearance. Some friends have suggested that Cher’s insecurities have deepened since she started dating 38-year-old Alexander “A.E.” Edwards.

    With their decades-wide age gap, the publication’s sources claimed that Cher has been pushed to keep altering her look.

    According to a report fromThe Blast, those around Cher are worried that she has not noticed just how much her appearance has shifted as of late.

    Her appearance has reportedly become quite similar to a wax figure.

    Doctors have stated that lifestyle choices played a role in Cher’s iconic look

    Not everyone believes cosmetic surgery alone is behind Cher’s youthful imageDr. Robert H. Cohen told outlets that her glow is more likely the result of a “regimented exercise, diet, and skin care routine with subtle cosmetic surgery procedures.” 

    Dr. Cohen stated that these likely include a strict diet, consistent workouts, skin care routines, and non-invasive procedures like Botox and fillers. 

    He suggested that Cher began these treatments early in her career, making regular upkeep part of her lifestyle. Cohen also pointed to subtle details, like her proportionally youthful smile. 

    Normally, the space between the nose and lip lengthens with age, but Cher’s has remained consistent, hinting at cosmetic interventions over the years.

    Cher has never shied away from talking about her surgeries

    Unlike many celebrities, Cher has often confronted rumors about her cosmetic history head-on. 

    In the 1980s, Cher confirmed with British broadcaster Terry Wogan that she had undergone one cosmetic procedure, and she had no problem with getting more work done.

    Four years later, Cher confirmed that she had work done on her nose and chest. She also wore braces.

    Interestingly enough, Cher also debunked rumors that she had ribs removed at the time, stating that her stage outfits and workout commercials would have made it impossible to hide any scars from such procedures.

    Cher has consistently denied speculation about cheek implants or more extreme procedures, though in 2018, she confirmed that she had had a facelift.

    Cher even joked at the time that facelifts had become so commonplace. “Yes, I’ve had a facelift, but who hasn’t?” she said.

    Her relationship with Alexander Edwards has been both a spark and a struggle

    Cher’s romance with music executive Alexander “A.E.” Edwards almost didn’t happen. 

    The two met in 2022, and Cher admitted that she tried to talk herself out of dating him because of their age difference

    “I kept saying, ‘I’m not the right woman for you. I’m 100 years older than you,’” she joked, adding that she was worried Edwards’ friends might not think it was “cool” for him to date her. 

    But Edwards persisted, telling her: “Why don’t you let me be the judge of that?”

    From then on, their relationship has blossomed, though recent reports of Cher reportedly feeling insecure about her look suggest that their 30-year age gap may still be a notable factor in their relationship.

    Grief may also explain the changes friends are noticing

    Those who know Cher well have suggested that the changes in her look might not only be about procedures, but about the toll of stress and grief. 

    Since her mother Georgia’s passing in 2022, Cher has admitted to speaking with her daily, often through mediums, as a way to feel connected to her mother.

    Friends stated that the supernatural routine comforts the music legend, though others have raised eyebrows.

    “She feels her mom’s presence and knows Georgia is still with her,” one insider explained, adding that Cher is not at all concerned about how others think.

    “Cher doesn’t care if people think she’s crazy. She talks to her mom every day and can feel her mom’s empathy and understanding from the world beyond,” an insider noted.

    Cher's gonna do Cher and our opinions won't change that one little bit. It's not for me, but it's not my business, either.

    Is that opinion only reserved for Cher? Because you don't have a problem criticising everyone else who's had work done
