After the singer confirmed that she had lost her mother, Cher heard from ordinary people and a huge array of celebrities who said how sorry they were to hear about it.

"There is NOTHING I can say to EASE your pain or SOOTHE your SOUL. Hold good thoughts of your mom close to your , lock them tight, and she'll ALWAYS be with you. My poor dear, Georgia was a part of our lives for decades. So SMART. So BEAUTIFUL. TRULY A WOMAN BEFORE HER TIME," one person wrote on Twitter.

Others, including Hillary Clinton, also weighed in on Twitter to share their sympathy. It's clear that Cher is both grieving and ill following the death of her mother at 96, but there has been no indication that she herself has died. Cher is a widely beloved national treasure. When the day finally comes that she does die, she recently announced how she wants to be remembered.

"I’m going to one of OUR favorite places & Celebrate her," she said following her mom's death. "When I Die I want Ppl to celebrate Me.Throw a Party."
