The Westboro Baptist Church plans to picket Cher’s concert in Kansas City on May 31.
The hate group made its announcement through a flyer featuring a deranged bio of the dance diva that’s littered with poor syntax, sentence fragments, and grammatical errors.
“Cherilyn Sarkisian La Piere Bono Allman — this is what Cher’s name had become when she gave up the battle and legally changed her name to Cher,” the flyer reads. “Her birth father (from whom she got “Sarkisian”) left very early; her mother was in rather constant search-but-never-find mode for fame and the next man to save her.”
The flyer then delves into Cher’s marriages to “twerp” Sunny Bono and “drunk druggie” Gregg Allman, before taking shots at her transgender son Chaz and the singer’s constant “pandering to the fags/dykes.”
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
It concludes by accusing the Believe hit maker of being a giant bundle of “confusion” and “filth,” which is why church members plan to picket her concert.
Cher hasn’t released a statement, but we’d imagine if she did, it would look something like this:

LOL they are trying to go after the wrong bitch. She will read their asses to filth!

They ACCUSE Cher of “Pandering” to gays?
Really? It’s only an “accusation”? LOL!!!!!! That’s like saying that Dominoes “Panders” to people who liked Pizza.
Cher has built the last 15 years of her career around her gay fans. If Westboro is that out of it, maybe they should find another line of work.

Cher, sweetheart just to remind you that Jesus, hates Christian!.

Westboro always damned people saying their death had a reason. I wonder if this concept had something to do with the leader just passing,

Oh, Cher darling, don’t sink to “flipping the bird”! That’s SOOO unbecoming a Diva! And, NO F-words, either!

@Cam: Thank you for saying it. I was about to.

@Cam: Cher actually became a gay icon very, very early on.

@scotshot:
Oh trust me, I’m not throwing any mud at Cher, she is great. I just think it’s hilarious that they are “Accusing” her like she JUST decided she liked gay people. LOL

Westboro church members and their supporters are evil to the core.

ROFL! This entire post is hysterical, from the Cher gif to the ironic bigots. But on a side note, I need to vent my opinion; these people are crazy! Not in an insane crazy, but a downright demonically scary crazy, like the antichrist in sheep’s clothing. I just saw their page and there’s a post thanking God for fallen troops, not for their blessing but their domination, even listing names. Is that legal? And even if it is how can a group preach so much hate in the name of God? This should be considered a terrorist organization.

Surely Cher is a dyke from Westboro’s pov? – as she has stated on several occasions that she had an affair with a woman in the 1960s.
