American singer, actress, and TV personality, Cher, has opened up on dating younger men, saying she prefers to have younger boyfriends because all of the men in her age group have died.

The 77-year-old, who is currently dating record executive Alexander ‘AE’ Edwards, 38 explained that her rationale for dating younger men is that the older ones were all intimidated by her personality.

According to Cher, she would rather date men from later generations, who ‘were raised by women like me’ and as a result were never scared of her.

‘And the reason I got with young men is because men my age or older – well, now they’re all dead,’ she joked on The Jennifer Hudson Show this week. ‘But before they just never, they were always terrified to approach me.’

She noted that she is ‘really shy when I’m not working,’ and ‘kinda shy around men,’ lowering the chances of her making the first move.

Cher has a longtime reputation for dating much younger men, such as Rob Camilletti, whom she dated in 1986 when she was 40 and he was 22. 

The singer and Alexander first became acquainted at Paris Fashion Week in September 2022, and by that November she confirmed their romance.

When she was trolled on social media because of the age gap, she retorted: ‘LOVE DOESN’T KNOW MATH, IT SEES [hearts].’  

Shortly afterwards, she appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show and spoke about dating a man so much younger than she.

‘Well, on paper it’s kind of ridiculous,’ she admitted: ‘But in real life, we get along great. He’s fabulous and I don’t give men qualities that they don’t deserve.’ 

Cher noted: ‘If I hadn’t met younger men in my life, I would have never had a date, because older men just didn’t like me all that much, do you know what I mean?’ 

Supermodel and TV personality, Tyra Banks has revealed that she had her first alcoholic drink to celebrate her 50th birthday.

In an interview with People, the model said she wanted to try new things and also wanted to be her most authentic self as she celebrated her big milestone birthday which was in December.

She said she spent her special day enjoying a seaplane adventure with her mom and best friend in Australia, where they enjoyed a meal and an alcoholic beverage.

Describing how she felt, Tyra said the booze left her underwhelmed. She added “It wasn’t worth it. I was like, ‘This is nasty!’”

Tyra famously has chosen to live a sober lifestyle, having previously avoided drugs and alcohol throughout her career and even now at age 50, it seems she’s continuing on that path.

Now, Tyra did once say she tried a little taste of alcohol when she was 12 but she hasn’t touched a drop of it until now.

On what it feels like turning 50, she said;

“I thought I would have little glasses and just have a quilt on my lap and watch soap operas all day. I was wrong. What my life is like now is totally different than what I thought. I’m poppin’. I am not insecure about myself. It feels real good.”

The American supermodel now lives in Australia, where she works and lives with her boyfriend Louis Bélanger-Martin and son York Banks Asla, who she welcomed via surrogacy in 2016.

Cardi B and Offset claim to be separated but they looked cozier than ever sitting courtside at an NBA game.

The two were spotted at the Philadelphia 76ers and New York Knicks game on Tuesday night, April 30.

The pair was spotted in videos from fans appearing on the big screen while sitting together courtside at the New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.

Offset was photographed resting his hand on his wife’s backside as they entered a vehicle after the game.

Additionally, Offset took to his Instagram Stories to share a sweet video of Cardi hanging out in a home movie theater seat, dressed in a sleek plaid mini skirt and fluffy boots, paired with stacks of luxurious jewelry and a Birkin bag.

This comes despite Cardi announcing in December that she was single, marking an end to the couple’s on-and-off six-year relationship.

Despite splitting, the pair were seen spending New Year’s Eve together in Miami. In a live Twitter chat the next day, Cardi confirmed that she and the Migos rapper spent time together.

“Was I clubbing with my baby father yesterday?” Cardi said during the X event. “Yes. Did I got d***ed down yesterday? Absolutely baby… I need some d**k on New Year’s Eve.”

Cardi also told fans to “shut the f**k up” after they speculated that she’d gotten back together with Offset, slamming her “own f**king fan base” for “talking s**t” about her.

“Did I say I was back together with somebody?” she yelled.

However, just a month later, the pair were pictured together at a restaurant in Miami Beach on Valentine’s Day.

Kim Kardashian and Odell Beckham Jr have reportedly called it quits. 

The reality star, 43, and the NFL star, 31, ended their relationship seven months after it was first speculated the pair were dating. Despite their romance fizzling, a source confirmed to Entertainment Tonight on 30 April, that Kardashian and Beckham remain friends.

“Kim and Odell have always been open and honest about their future, whether that be together or separate,” the source told the outlet. “They had a good thing and there aren’t any hard feelings on either side. They started as friends and still are. They will continue to be respectful of each other’s spaces, careers, families, and friends.”

The source added that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum is “so busy” and focused on “being a hands-on mom” that she isn’t “putting any pressure” on being in a committed relationship.

Kardashian and Beckham first sparked romance rumours in September 2023. A source previously told E! News that the pair “are friends” and have “mutual friends in common”.

“She’s not seriously dating anyone at the moment but is open to finding love again if she meets the right person. Right now her main focus is on her kids and her businesses,” the outlet reported.

Beckham was previously in a relationship with girlfriend Lauren Wood. The former couple – who went public with their romance in 2019 but reportedly split in early 2023 – welcomed a son together, Zydn, in February 2022. Kardashian shares four children – North, 10, Saint, eight, Chicago, six, and Psalm, four – with ex-husband Kanye West. The two split in February 2021 and finalised their divorce in November 2022.

The reality TV star has been linked to several famous faces since her split from Davidson in 2022 after nine months of dating. Last year, Kardashian was rumoured to be dating retired football player Tom Brady.
