Dua Lipa And Cher Face-To-Face After Awkward Exchange Online

Back in August 2022, a Twitter user tweeted a picture of Dua Lipa, calling her the "Cher of our generation."

The original tweet, which has now been deleted, showed a two-picture collage featuring pictures of Lipa and Cher side-by-side, highlighting their sparkling outfit choices and long dark hair.

While several people have pointed out the stark similarities between the two pop stars, one user commented, "so much truth in one Tweet," and tagged both the singers.

Although music legends such as Cher cheer on their juniors when such comparisons come to light, Cher had an entirely different response in her tweet, which read, "How many yrs are in a generation."

While Cher and Lipa have established themselves firmly in the music industry, they are often compared for their identical and bold fashion choices.

7 months after Cher shared her stance on Twitter, the two Grammy-winning singers united at the Versace Fall/Winter 2023 Show, and it's all over Twitter about how cold their encounter was.

Lipa has been seen donning several Versace looks, including her iconic butterfly dress from the Grammys 2021. She walked the runway for the brand's 1992 fall ready-to-wear collection earlier last year.

Cher and Versace joined forces to release a limited collection titled "CHERSACE" for Pride Month 2022. The collection was focused to raised funds for the LGBTQ+ community.

In the clip that has gone more viral than the entire Versace Show, Dua can be seen moving forward with a hug, but Cher puts her hand forward for a handshake instead.

The awkwardness in the air is clearly visible from the look Lipa gives to the camera, or more like the camera steals it from her.

One user commenting about the encounter, whose tweet has received over 66,000 likes, says, "Dua was about to hug her, but then she remembered the tweet."

After deleting the original tweet, the user offered some clarification saying, "Well I'm truly sorry for the whole cher x dua situation. I was just praising their looks and promoting the edit."

The user further wrote, "I truly believe Cher didn't mean anything bad with her reply." If their encounter hadn't been so shocking we would have actually paid some heed to this tweet.

While some fans thought the comparison between the singers was disrespectful, others saw it just as a harness comparison between the two artists.

Cher is known for being active on Twitter and vocal about her opinions. And the best part about her tweets is that they're always unfiltered, which means more drama for us!

Cher first catapulted to fame at 19 with her 1965 hit single "I Got You Babe" and has since been a strong presence in the music world.

Dua, on the other hand, received her big break in 2015 after signing with Warner Music Group at the age of 15.

However, it wasn't until the release of her second album Future Nostalgia that Lipa stepped into stardom. The album's hit single "New Rules"  garnered love from people around the world and got Lips her first Grammy win.

Both Cher, 67, and Lipa, 27 are incredible artists with multiple awards to their names. However, being the more experienced artist, Cher's comments seem seriously out of proportion.
