CELEBRITY Cher

Cher is unquestionably a living legend. The star is selling out her Classic Cher tour and soaking in the love from her role in the 'Mama Mia' sequel. With a career of hits, it is hard to imagine anyone daring to insult her, however, Cher recalls the horrible things fellow actor Jack Nicholson and director George Miller said to her.

On-stage at her show in Atlantic City, Cher began to describe how her 40th birthday began, according to Hollywood Reporter. She said, "And in the morning, my telephone rang and the man said, 'Hi, Cher, it's George Miller.' I said, 'Hey, George.' He was the director of 'Witches of Eastwick.' So he said, 'I just wanted to call and tell you that I don't want you in my movie and Jack Nicholson and I think you're too old and you're not sexy.' Good morning, 40!"

Everyone who has seen the iconic 1987 comedy knows Cher did end up getting the starring role in the film and was instrumental in the production's phenomenal success.

Full of confidence, Cher told the crowd how she responded to Miller that day. "So, finally I was like, 'OK, look motherf***er' yeah, I said the whole thing. I said, 'You didn't find me under a rock. I was nominated for an Academy Award for Silkwood. And I got the Cannes Film Festival award for best actress for Mask,'" Cher said as the audience cheered. "'So, goodbye!'"

Thus proving once again that nobody can mess with Cher. As for Jack Nicholson, many would agree that he isn't exactly the picture of youth and sex-appeal. Perhaps people in glass houses should not throw stones?
