PinkNews @pinknews His rendition of the Cher track gave us all the feels. www.pinknews.co.uk/2018/12/27/cher-adam-lamberts-kennedy-center-honors-tribute/?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=Buffer&utm_campaign=PN … Cher ‘overwhelmed’ by Adam Lambert’s Kennedy Center Honors tribute Legendary singer Cher tweeted she was “overwhelmed” after Adam Lambert and Cyndi Lauper performed for her at the Kennedy Center Honors. From appearing in Mamma Mia 2: Here We Go Again! to releasing her own album of ABBA classics and even finding time to announce a world tour, Cher has had a fantastic year. At the beginning of December, the iconic singer and actress was named as one of the recipients for the 41st annual Kennedy Center Honors, alongside Philip Glass, Reba McEntire, Wayne Shorter, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Thomas Kail, Alex Lacamoire, and Andy Blankenbuehler. The glamorous awards event was aired on Wednesday (December 26) on CBS, showcasing and celebrating each of the honorees. During the television special, Adam Lambert took to the stage to perform an acoustic rendition of Cher’s hit “Believe.” Taking to Twitter as the event aired, Cher said she was “overwhelmed” by the emotional performance. The icon could be seen shedding a tear while watching Lambert sing. John Barrowman also tweeted that the “truly amazing” performance had left him “speechless.” Lambert wasn’t the only one to celebrate Cher’s back catalogue, as Cyndi Lauper took to the stage to perform a rendition of “If I Could Turn Back Time.” Cher was stunned again, but this time for a completely different reason. “You told me you were going to Los Angeles,” Cher shouted to Lauper. “I lied,” the star replied. Lambert and Lauper returned to the stage later in the event to perform a version of “I Got You Babe” together. Responding to Cher’s tweet, Lambert tweeted that it was “a total honor” to perform the track. Lauper added that the singer had sounded great even in sound check. The Cher Show, a musical based on Cher’s life and career recently opened on Broadway to rave reviews and is expected to be followed up with a biopic and memoir in the near future.

I've been out all day. Has anyone outside the US tried the official video lately? I changed my location from US to UK on youtube/chrome and was not blocked.

Wow! The number of tweets is jumping in the same way, it feels. I‘m already dizzy from scrolling... (No pun! It’s just too much for me to take in. 😁) Some other news: Adam just liked Javi’s family Christmas pics from Ibiza, that he had posted earlier today. In all the dizziness I forgot to check in on Javi. I enjoyed watching his IG story vids...big, loud, singing Christmas dinner, etc. He's been doing lots of travelling all over Spain. Will be interesting to see how things go when he gets back to LA Javi went home to the island of Mallorca for a few days and then with his parents to Madrid for a family gathering on Christmas Eve. On Christmas Day an even taller part of the family traveled to a huge family gathering on the island of Ibiza. Now he’s back on Mallorca. And I‘m actually curious, when he will fly back to LA. Before New Year‘s Eve or after? In between all his travels, he suddenly started to follow Danielle. I wondered, how that came and thought, that maybe Adam has met her, while they were both in San Diego on Christmas Day: Adam at his Dad‘s and Danielle at her parents‘. With most of Adam’s friends out of the city of LA, he must be a bit lonely... Terrance and Joey are in New York and most of his other friends (that are on Instagram), are out of town for Christmas or on vacation.
