I would actually wear that hat; I thought it was unusually stylish for her. Her voice was not on form, though.

she's old

Stritch holds it down.
Tina makes it work.
Cher has never sounded better.

Just because you're old doesn't make you not able to have some substance to your voice. She should have sung that song a whole octave lower.

This. Girlfriend was reaching for something that wasn't there anymore.

Loved the hat, though!

I told my mother it looked like she was wearing a Christmas wreath.

She's like "That's the style"

I'm like..."No."

HATERS TO THE LEFT
