Cher calls queen a ‘cow’ instead of GOAT in bizarre blunder

If only she could turn back time.

Cher has hit headlines after a gaffe in a Twitter tribute to Queen Elizabeth II when she referred to the late monarch as a cow.

The pop star, 76, shared a heartfelt social media message on Thursday night following the death of the royal, reminiscing on her first meeting with Her Majesty back in 1988.

It appeared that Cher intended to include an emoji of a goat — in reference to the acronym GOAT (Greatest Of All Time) — at the conclusion of her post.

However, the “Moonstruck” starlet mixed up her farmyard animals, instead posting a cow emoji.

“Am Sad About The Passing Of Queen Elizabeth II,” Cher wrote. “I Had Honor Of Meeting Her. I Was In Long Line of Ppl Waiting 2 Meet Her, Yet When She Got 2 Me, She Asked Me Pertinent Questions, & Seemed Genuinely Interested In Talking 2 Me.”

She concluded: “I’m Proud She Was a [cow emoji] & Happy She Had a Great Sense Of Humor.”

The Post has reached out to Cher’s reps for comment.

Cher paid tribute to the queen on Twitter late Thursday, recalling her first meeting with the monarch in 1988.

The apparent animal accident raised eyebrows among the Twitterati, with one follower responding: “What’s with the cow emoji?!”

Others theorized that the emoji was a bull, not a cow, and was a reference to the queen’s star sign. Like Cher, Elizabeth II was a Taurus, a sign that is represented by a bull.

“I first read it as cow and thought to myself I know Cher is not calling the queen a cow,” a social media sleuth chimed in. “So I thought about it for a second and realized it was the astrological sign Taurus.”

“Taurus queens!!!,” another enthused.

Others cooed over Cher’s tribute to the monarch, saying the “Believe” songstress was also royalty in her own right.

“From one Queen to another,” one declared, adding a heart emoji.

Cher has not yet cleared up any confusion, but it doesn’t appear her tweet was meant maliciously.
