On May 24, Cher interviewed with MSNBC and provided thoughtful commentary about her friendship with Tina Turner. “She fought this sickness for such a long time and she was so strong, as you would think she would be,” said Cher. “But towards that end, I know that she told me once, ‘I’m really ready. I just don’t want to put up with this anymore.'” The singer continued, “I started going to visit her because I thought, ‘I need to put this time into our friendship, so she knows we haven’t forgotten her. So we all took turns going and spending time with her and it made her happy.”
Cher also revealed that Turner initially proclaimed that she wasn’t able to accommodate leisurely visits, but hours later, “We were laughing like crazy and she wanted to get up and show everything that she’d bought in her house,” said the singer. “But she was having a good time in spite of the fact that she was really sick,” Cher added. Cher didn’t mention how recent her visits with Turner were; however, she did gush about visiting Turner in 2021. “I JUST SPENT THE LAST 3 HOURS WITH MY FRIEND & IDOL ‘TINA,'” tweeted Cher. “THE GREATEST FEMALE PERFORMER EVER. THE EVER BEAUTIFUL, EVER AMAZING TINA TURNER.”
