Allegations against Cher of hiring men to kidnap Elijah Blue Allman
The controversy originated from a report that emerged last month, suggesting that the 'Strong Enough' singer enlisted four individuals to extract her 47-year-old son, Elijah Blue Allman, from a New York City hotel room in an apparent intervention, dating back to November 2022.
These startling accusations were disclosed by Allman's estranged wife, Marieangela King, in divorce papers filed last December.
Allman has grappled with substance abuse issues, a concern Cher had previously opened up about in an interview with Vanity Fair.
She emphasized that her experiences were not unique, stating, "I'm not suffering from any problem that millions of people in the United States aren't."
Cher denies allegations she plotted to kidnap Elijah Blue Allman
In her conversation with The Post, Cher highlighted the enduring commitment of motherhood, stating, "You never stop being a mom — you go to the end, you go to the mattresses when you’re trying to save your children."
Despite the gravity of the allegations, Cher remained steadfast, asserting, "But I didn't do it. And if I did it, I wouldn't care to tell you."
The singer, who is celebrated for her outspoken advocacy and support for LGBTQ+ rights, also shared her journey in coming to terms with her son Chaz Bono's transgender identity.
Reflecting on this, Cher admitted her initial apprehension despite her reputation as an LGBTQ+ ally: "I was really frightened. I really honestly had to come to that moment. You know, it was a make-or-break moment. And it took me a minute — Chaz was so patient."
She further expressed concerns about the added scrutiny on Chaz due to her own fame, saying, "I was nervous of what people would do more to him than they might do to some other person … So it was really hard. It's hard being my child."
Cher's stance on politics and Donald Trump
In recent years, Cher has not shied away from sharing her political views, particularly her criticism of former President Donald Trump.
As the topic of the 2024 presidential election arose in a Guardian interview while promoting her Christmas album, Cher made her stance clear. Referring to Trump's first election win in 2017, she remarked, "I almost got an ulcer the last time."
Cher's longstanding criticism of Trump has manifested through various colorful expressions, calling him "Nixon on steroids" and asserting that he doesn't "care" or is "very good at what he does."
On the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Cher has been unreserved in venting her frustration about Trump, referring to him as "President Troll" and even likening him to Adolf Hitler.
