Cher, 72, back on stage with her US Here We Go Again tour

After more than five decades in the spotlight, most of us might be tempted to put our feet up. But not Cher.

At 72, the American singer is back on stage – and more flamboyant than ever, the Daily Mail reports.

Other outfits included a sheer bra and silver fringed dress, worn with a sleek red wig.

For another song, she arrived on stage in a brightly coloured sari and headdress atop a life-size model of an elephant.

During Saturday’s show, clips from her career were shown including one of her performing with former husband Sonny Bono in the 1960s.

Cher, who won a best actress Oscar in 1988 for the film Moonstruck, is on her first global tour for 14 years; her Living Proof: Farewell world tour ran from 2002 to 2005.

The current tour began in New Zealand last September. She will appear across the US and Canada until May before heading to Europe this September.
