Cher really believes her boyfriend’s strong enough. The iconic singer gave her stamp of approval to her boo Alexander “A.E.” Edwards’ fight in Cannes with Travis Scott, after footage emerged last week.
The “Believe” artist took to X over the weekend, more than a week after the Cannes afterparty altercation that included A.E., Scott and producer Southside, among other team members who got involved.
Cher explained that she was “proud” of Edwards — with whom she has been romantically linked since late 2022, after meeting at Paris Fashion Week — and said he didn’t start the brawl, but was the one to end it.
“I’m Proud of Alexander,” she gushed on X Saturday (June 1). “He Didn’t Start The fight Against 2 Men,… He finished it, Gotta Love Him.”
Fans hopped into Cher’s replies, happy to see her support A.E. and that everything was all right in wake of the incident.
“Bless him, isn’t it crap all the rubbish that gets published, sad that you’ve had to comment on this. Hope AE is ok and you are too xxxx,” one person responded to the 78-year-old.
The altercation went down at Richie Akiva’s Cannes Film Festival afterparty on May 23 behind the DJ booth when Scott and A.E. began to argue, but it’s unclear what exactly sparked the disagreement.
Sources close to the situation told Billboard that La Flame returned with producer Southside, and that’s when things got physical. Following the brief tussle with punches exchanged, security diffused the fight.
TMZ caught up with A.E. last week to get Cher’s thoughts about the altercation, and he quoted lyrics from Future and Metro Boomin’s “GTA”: “Like Future say, ‘Whatever I’m with, my b—h with it, too.’ My woman, but the lyrics are the lyrics.”
