Cher doesn’t care whether or not you “Believe” the allegation that she once hired men to kidnap her troubled son, Elijah Blue Allman.
“I didn’t do it, and if I did it, I wouldn’t say I did it,” Cher, 77, bluntly told The Post on Friday during a lengthy interview.
The icon’s matter-of-fact response stems from a report that surfaced last month claiming the “Strong Enough” singer hired four men to kidnap Allman, 47, from a New York City hotel room in an apparent intervention in November 2022.
Allman’s estranged wife, Marieangela King, included the accusations in divorce papers filed last December.
Allman allegedly struggled with substance abuse, and while Cher didn’t divulge any further information on the alleged incident to The Post, she shifted the conversation to the never-ending worrying that comes with motherhood.
“You never stop being a mom — you go to the end, you go to the mattresses when you’re trying to save your children. But I didn’t do it. And if I did it, I wouldn’t care to tell you.”
Cher previously spoke to People about Allman’s alleged drug addiction.
“I’m not suffering from any problem that millions of people in the United States aren’t,” she said of watching her son’s struggles with substance abuse.
“I’m a mother. This is my job — one way or another, to try to help my children. You do anything for your children. Whenever you can help them, you just do it because that’s what being a mother is. But it’s joy, even with heartache — mostly, when you think of your children, you just smile and you love them, and you try to be there for them.”
Later in her interview with The Post, Cher reflected on coming to terms with her son Chaz Bono, 54, coming out as transgender.
“It was really weird because you would have thought I was cool enough,” the gay icon admitted.
“I have trans friends and all that, but I was really frightened. I really honestly had to come to that moment. You know, it was a make-or-break moment. And it took me a minute — Chaz was so patient.”
She continued, “But I was also frightened because, you know, I’m famous and the spotlight was going to be on him, and I was nervous of what people would do more to him than they might do to some other person … So it was really hard. It’s hard being my child.”
