AT THE BACK of my mind, I knew this day would come. After fifteen years of being MIA, Cher is coming back to us. Ireland.
This morning, Cher announced a world tour and of course, the 3Arena is on her radar.
Look, I’m not a huge Cher fan. I appreciated her rendition of Fernando in Mamma Mia 2, and am thankful for Believe and what it did for the autotune industry. Cher walked so T-Pain could run.
Yes, she can act, and Mermaids is one of my favourite film.
All brilliant, sure.
But I’m not Cher’s fan for any of these reasons. No, the reason I love her so much is because of her stunning Twitter account.
Imagine your mam got Twitter, developed strong political opinions, and you locked her in a room with nothing but a browser, an internet connection, and a lot of wine.
That’s basically Cher’s Twitter presence.
In fact, this is probably my favourite tweet of all time, in general.

Besides her strong political opinions, cher also claps back all the damn time
A chef’s kiss of a tweet, if I ever saw one.
She also tweets the most mundane shit, every damn day
We get it Cher, bye.
Oh wait, she’s back.

It’s fabulous.
She’s only short of @ing customer services
Don’t hold back Cher!
Instead, she @s herself

Her Twitter feed has all the comfort of seeing your auntie sharing another Minions meme on Facebook and knowing she’s out there, comfy and enjoying herself.

It’s your mam tagging you in a Watch Out Hun viral post, and mildy appreciating it because you can kinda see where she’s coming from
Then there’s just the brilliance of her interactions with other mas

All in all, follow Cher and find yourself saying ‘same’ on a daily basis.
