Cher reveals she and Madonna 'buried' their feud 'a long time ago' after she called her 'mean' and 'a spoiled brat'
Cher reflected on her decades-old feud she had with Madonna during an in-depth interview with the Los Angeles Times, which was published on Friday.
When asked about her previous ‘beef’ with the 65-year-old superstar, the Believe singer, 77, shot the reporter down as she clarified that she ‘actually’ likes her former rival.
During the Holiday singer's Celebration tour, she featured a video clip of an old interview of Cher - who just released her first ever Christmas album - in which she called Madge 'mean.'
'She can be. We buried that hatchet a long time ago because I called her something so much worse, and she forgave me,' Cher explained.

At one point, during Madonna's Celebration Tour, she includes an interlude, featuring several artists talking about her musical legacy.
The moment Cher called her 'mean' surprisingly made the cut.
In a video clip from 1991 that was posted to YouTube, the If I Could Turn Back Time hitmaker said she had the Papa Don't Preach singer over to her house a couple of times when she was with Sean Penn, who is Cher's friend, and 'she was just so rude to everybody.'
'It seems to me that she's got so much that she doesn't have to act the way that she acts like a spoiled brat all the time,' Cher said.
She added: 'It seems to me when you reach the kind of acclaim that she's reached and can do whatever you wanna do, you should be a little more magnanimous and be a little less of a c**t.'
In the L.A. Times interview, she added some praise for the Borderline singer's instincts.
'But I give her this: There's no one like her that had their ear to the ground and knew everything before anybody else.
'I mean, she knew what was coming, and she was right on it. I always felt that was her greatest gift — that she could know the trends before any of us.'
However, the I Got You Babe singer threw some shade Madonna's way during a 2018 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

During a game of '5 Second Rule,' Stephen tWitch Boss said: 'Name three celebrities you'd want to do a duet with.'
Cher replied, 'Oh, Adele, Pink, and, uh, um, not Madonna.'
After the crowd roared with surprise, Ellen Degeneres said, 'Alright, Miss Negative. He said, "You'd want to." It's not who you wouldn't want to.'
Cher coyly replied: 'I took a little license.'
