It’s common knowledge that Cher is a bad b***h, but a vintage viral video of the diva has demonstrated just how badass she truly is.
In a 1996 interview with Jane Pauley, above, the singer and Oscar-winning actress declares that “a man is not a necessity, a man is a luxury.”
“Did you mean that to sound mean and bitter?” Pauley asks.
“Oh not at all... I think men are the coolest! But you don’t really need them to live.”
But the most amazing part of the interview is when Cher tells a story about her mother asking her to “settle down and marry a rich man.”
“I said ‘mom, I am a rich man.’” Slay.
Watch the full clip above.
