Celeb News: 2014 explained in Cher tweets

Quote:

Cherilyn Sarkisian is a popular human entertainer, a phantasm of light and feathers we mere mortals know as Cher. She's famous for her wondrous acting performances in movies like Moonstruck and the timbre in her voice that produced songs like "Dark Lady." But there's another side to Cher that's eclipsed by the showgirl's shadow — that side lives on Twitter.

On Twitter, Cher is a digital oracle: she's predicting downfalls of nations one minute, calling attention to pressing animal rights matters the next, and alerting her followers to financial news in her next 140 characters. And she dispenses these bursts of passion in digital hieroglyphics — her tweets are part emoji and part Drudge report, all mixed with flashes of caustic mortality. Honestly, hers is one of the best Twitter feeds out there, a daily reaction to the news, filtered through the perspective of your aunt who just got a smartphone.

Here are some of the biggest news stories of the year, through the eyes of Cher:

Mess @ some of you queens thinking gay slang started on ATRL or something. Cher's been around gay culture since the '60s.

I never implied anything of the sort. I was just not expecting her to know a term like that given her lack of knowledge in some other areas that are irrelevant to a legend of her status (like how Twitter operates

).

But are we sure Cher wasn't a ghostwriter on 7/11?

The bus full of writers for that track was already full so she went back home.

Yes, and Cher's been hanging out with queens for decades.

That slang went mainstream in the early '90s anyway with Paris is Burning, Rupaul and my fave.
