Cher illuminated New York City with her radiant presence during the "Christmas in Rockefeller Center" special.
This festive event, which was broadcast on November 29 on NBC and Peacock, showcased the 77-year-old superstar in a dazzling ensemble that perfectly captured the holiday spirit.
In the heart of the Big Apple, Cher donned a shimmering metallic top complemented by a matching coat, elevating her attire with stylish studded jeans.
Her look was completed with striking long silver earrings, adding a touch of glamour to the wintry evening in New York City.

The release of Cher's debut holiday album, "Christmas," in October 2023 marked a new milestone in her illustrious career.

Cher's approach to the album was to select songs that, while festive, were not strictly traditional Christmas tunes. “They’re not ‘Christmas Christmas’ songs," she explained, "but just great songs that people love.”
Cher's self-critical nature usually keeps her from praising her own work, but this time, she confessed to loving the songs on the album, a sentiment echoed by listeners. "Christmas" is Cher's first studio album featuring original material in a decade and includes a blend of four original songs and her unique interpretations of holiday classics such as “Santa Baby.”

In addition to her performance at the Rockefeller Center, Cher also graced the 2023 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.
There, she delivered an electrifying rendition of “DJ Play a Christmas Song” in front of the iconic Macy’s in Herald Square, looking fierce in a white shirt, black tie, and bedazzled black pants. Cher's holiday appearances and her new album have added a touch of her unmistakable charisma to this year's festive season.
