Cher Takes Her Mom To Meet The President

Ever wonder how Cher manages to look so great at age 66? Look no further than her genes, as evidenced by a photo the singer/actress tweeted of her beautiful mother, Georgia Holt, on Wednesday.Cher and her Mom/Twitter

The shot was taken en route to meet President Obama--Cher took Mom along as her "date"--and it appears even he was impressed by Holt's slender and youthful appearance.

"Told him mom's 86," Cher tweeted of the meeting. "He said 'Georgia, tell me what u eat' & smiled!"

Holt's reaction to the President's admiration? "Mom was all 'OMG!'" Cher said.

Can't blame her--it's not every day a girl gets compliments from the Commander in Chief!

Cher also noted on Twitter that President Obama was "warm, funny," and "so sweet."

Cher's mom wasn't the only family member who got to come along for the special occasion. Cher also tweeted a photo with her son Chaz, who was suited up for the meeting in dress slacks, tie, and a big smile. Cher and son Chaz/Twitter
