Those who criticize marrying young as a mistake because it involves choosing a life partner before truly knowing yourself will surely be delighted that Cher has found her soulmate on the cusp of 80. With years of experience gained from self-discovery and having become so certain of who she is that she has dared to defy every possible social taboo, the most primal of all living pop divas seems to have found someone with whom to swear eternal love, however long eternity may last for her. After two failed marriages and 50 years of abstinence—marital, not romantic—we understand that she knew exactly what she was looking for in a man. That's why it's so joyful that she has found him—which doesn't always happen—and is determined to give it a luxurious touch through marriage. Especially since this decision will greatly upset that insufferable ageist and sexist social class that always tries to oppress anyone who attempts to live their life freely. This is a guarantee that Cher's upcoming wedding is very good news.
