Cher “Remix” Video Brings out the Hate

LogoTV recently published a remix of Cher’s new video for her single “Woman’s World”
featuring former Rupaul’s Drag Race contestant Wilam in a war bonnet style headdress.


The look is an apparent homage to Cher’s 1973 video performance of “Half Breed” 
where she wore a similarly styled headdress while riding a horse and singing. Watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6E98ZRaU1s
While the video may not go as far as No Doubt’s recent “Looking Hot” debacle,
it still perpetuates a trend that is best addressed at NativeAppropriations.com.

The song “Woman’s World” is from Cher’s upcoming album “Closer to The Truth,” apparently 
this video’s supporters are a bit closer to hate.
