Cher didn't seem to mind after she cursed loud on live TV!
While chatting on the Tuesday, November 19, episode of the Today show alongside Hoda Kotb, the pop star, 78, was sharing details about why she wrote Cher: The Memoir: Part One.
Cher spoke with Hoda Kotb during the Tuesday, November 19, episode of the 'Today' show.
Cher revealed she reached out to Lucille Ball for advice when dealing with the hardships of her relationship with her late ex, Sonny Bono.
The 60-year-old host asked what the I Love Lucy star told her, to which Cher replied, "I can't say it on TV."
"We’ll bleep it," Kotb quipped.
Hoda Kotb wanted Cher to say the advice Lucille Ball gave to her when she was married to Sonny Bono.
The "Believe" songstress said she reached out to Ball since she had gone through similar issues with her ex and costar, Desi Arnaz. “So, she said, ‘F--- it, you’re the one with the talent,’” Cher said as Kotb let out a gasp.
“Ok, we didn’t have the seven second [delay], but we will for the next feed,” the journalist said while cracking up.
“Well, you said I could!” Cher said, to which Kotb replied, “I should have bleeped it myself.”
