Not since Keke Palmer told Vanity Fair, "I don't know who this man is" in regards to a picture of then-Vice President Dick Cheney have we seen such a shocking lack of acknowledgment for the work of one of the world's most influential people. But apparently, Troye Sivan heard that and said, "Hold my poppers." Sivan apparently has never seen a movie with Cher in it. CHER!!!
Troye Sivan’s lie detector test with Vanity Fair is trending after he revealed that he has never seen one of Cher’s movies:

Once again... it was Vanity Fair who brought us a SHOCKING (lolz calm down) revelation of this type when they gave Sivan a lie detector test and asked about Queen Cher's acting chops. First, they asked about Lady Gaga's acting chops, who the twink du jour conceded was a better actor than him. But then they slid a picture of Cher in front of him. "I have never actually seen... Uhhh..," he started. "Was she in Mamma Mia?" Scuse me, Troye? He doubled down and declared, "I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movie with Cher in it."
This is obviously an egregious offense given that while YES she was amazing in Mamia 2: The Squeakuel (title needs verifying), she also has an incredible list of movies to her resume, to say nothing of her ACADEMY AWARD. Cher won Best Actress for her incredible performance in 1987's Moonstruck. In winning the Oscar, she beat out a behemoth group of nominees, besting Meryl Streep (Ironweeds), Glenn Close (Fatal Attraction), Holly Hunter (Broadcast News), and Sally Kirkland (Anna). His defense was that he's only ever seen "like two movies just in general." Surely Boy Erased is one of them, no?
But his fightin' words didn't stop there with Cher. No, no. The Calvin Klein underwear model also had some thoughts on his design eye, specifically with how it stacks up against Queer Eye's Bobby Berk's. "Do you have a better eye for decor than this person?" Vanity Fair asked. The "Rush" singer gave a diplomatic, "I prefer my eye" before covering his mouth and laughing. He finally answered a red-faced smiling "Yeah" when pressed for a yes-or-no answer. He's apparently putting his money where his mouth is, though, because he's releasing his own line of luxury home goods and scents under the brand name Tsu Lange Yor, which is Yiddish for "long life." We'll have to see how Sivan's venture stacks up against the "Right At Home" author's proven success!

Listen here, Twink... I may love your acting, and love your music, and love your bulge, but you better start studying up on your proverbial herstory! Cher is one of the OG Mothers, and Bobby is a darling of this nation. He's also almost unquestionably the hardest-working member of the Queer Eye team. Let's hope your Home Goods launch is a success otherwise your design career may not have a tsu lange yor.
