In a not so far interview on the “Jennifer Hudson Show,” music icon, Cher, speak out about what most of her fans wanna know– why she prefers dating younger men…in particular, the almost 40-years-younger dude she’s dating now. The 77-year-old, known for her unapologetic nature, didn’t hold back when discussing what romantically floats her boat.
Turning down the legendary Elvis Presley in the past due to nervousness, Cher opened that she tends to be “shy…around men” outside of her work. But, that hasn’t stopped her from embracing a dynamic dating life with younger partners.
At the time the interview, Cher randomly confessed, “That’s the reason I got with young men. Men my age or older – well now, they’re all dead – but before, they were always terrified to approach me. And younger men were the only ones that…”
Discussing the boldness of younger men, Cher permitted with J. Hud that they’re “raised by women like me.” Clearly, the Grammy-winning vocalist is drawn to the confidence and fearlessness of her younger suitors.
Currently, Cher is dating music executive/ producer, Alexander “AE” Edwards, who is reportedly 38 years old. The duo has been together since 2022 and shows no signs of slowing down. Cher, who will be celebrating her 78th birthday this May, spoke highly of her connection with AE, describing him as a “beautiful man” whom she’s having the “best time” with.
