Cher is ready to leave the U.S. if Donald Trump becomes president again in 2024.
The famous singer made this strong statement during an interview with *The Guardian*
“I almost got an ulcer the last time,” Cher said. “If he wins, who knows? This time, I will leave [the country].”
During Trump’s presidency, he removed protections for LGBTQ people that helped prevent discrimination.
The “Believe” singer also spoke openly about the fight for trans rights and the many bills targeting the LGBTQ community.
“There are about 500 bills they’re trying to pass,” Cher said. “I was with two trans girls the other night – and of course, my own child [Chaz is trans]. I told them, ‘We have to stick together.’ I don’t know what their plan is for trans people. I wouldn’t be surprised by anything.”
This isn’t the first time Cher has shared her thoughts on Trump. When he became president in 2020, she said, “I hate to even call him a president because all he does is watch TV.”
Cher also predicted that Trump would have a meltdown if he lost the reelection.
“If Trump can’t stay in the White House, he’s going to burn it down,” she said. “He’s the most vindictive person I’ve ever seen. I think he’s fighting so hard because he knows he’ll be prosecuted when he leaves the White House.”
You Won’t Believe What the Australian Olympic Breakdancer Just Revealed About That Viral Routine!
Australian breakdancer Rachael Gunn, also known as Raygun, has finally spoken out after the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Raygun’s breakdancing routine went viral after she received zero points in all three rounds she competed in. The video of her performance spread quickly, making her famous for the wrong reasons. There’s even an online petition demanding that Gunn apologize for her performance.
Until now, Raygun hadn’t said anything about what happened, but she recently addressed the situation on Instagram. In a two-and-a-half-minute video, she shared that she was “devastated by the hate” she received.
In her video, Gunn thanked the people who supported her during the Paris Games, but also talked honestly about the online abuse she’s faced. She said she didn’t expect that the “joy she brought” to people would also lead to people making fun of her routine.
According to ESPN, over 40,000 people have signed a petition accusing Gunn of “manipulating” the Olympic qualification process.

In her Instagram video, Raygun thanked everyone who supported her, saying, “I really appreciate the positivity, and I’m glad I could bring some joy into your lives. That’s what I hoped for.”
However, she admitted that she didn’t expect the hate that followed. “I didn’t realize that would also open the door to so much hate, which has been pretty devastating. But I went out there and had fun,” she said.
Raygun also responded to questions about her commitment, making it clear that she worked hard to prepare for the Olympics. “I worked my butt off preparing for the Olympics, and I gave it my all. I’m honored to have been part of the Australian team and Australia’s breaking debut. What the other athletes achieved is phenomenal,” she said.
The 36-year-old also addressed false information that’s been spreading online since her performance in Paris. One rumor claimed that she only made the Australian Olympic team because her husband was a national selector and a judge at a qualifying event. This rumor has been proven to be completely false.
The Australian Olympic Committee (AOC) condemned the online petition against her, with AOC boss Matt Carroll writing to the petition’s website to demand its immediate removal.
