Cher Walks Balmain Fashion Show in Metallic Latex Bodysuit
The singer took the spotlight at Paris Fashion Week.
The fashion world gathered in France for Paris Fashion Week, and Cher made a jaw-dropping surprise appearance at the Balmain show.
On Sept. 28, Balmain premiered its Spring/Summer 2023 Womenswear collection, and while the clothes were beautiful and exciting to see, Cher sort of stole the show when she showed up on stage in a stunning metallic bodysuit.
The latex suit, in a shiny black material with sharp shoulders and high boots, almost appeared like armor.

The 76-year-old icon walked out and embraced Olivier Rousteing, a fashion designer and the creative director of Balmain since 2011. Then the two walked the runway together hand-in-hand to plenty of cheers from the audience.

Afterwards, Cher wrote about the event on Twitter, complimenting the models and the fashion collection.
She wrote: "JUST HAD BEST TIME, ON STAGE…FELT GREAT SHOW WAS PROBABLY BEST FASHION SHOW “EVER”MODELS WERE BEAUTY FROM ANOTHER UNIVERSE.CLOTHES 2 DIE 4..OLIVIER 2 DIE 4 STAGE WAS CALLING ME cher…..oh cher….come Home….I HEAR YOU."
Based on her wording in the tweet, it also seems like Cher might be hinting at a return to music or another type of performance, referring to the stage as "home."
In her career, Cher has won an Emmy for Cher: The Farewell Tour, an Oscar for Moonstruck, and a handful of Grammys.
She's one award away from joining the elite group of people who have achieved EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony) status, so maybe she's planning a return to theater after 30 years?
Cher's only stage role was Sissy in the play Come Back to the 5 & Dime Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean in 1982.
Currently, a stage show all about Cher's life, aptly titled The Cher Show, is preparing to launch in the U.K. after a run on Broadway.
Recently, Cher also attended the premiere of Apple TV+'s new documentary, Sidney, about the late prolific actor and activist—and her friend—Sidney Poitier.
