SHE first found fame on The X Factor back in 2010, with her Turn My Swag On audition going down in television history.
And while the TV competition is now 14 years ago, Cher Lloyd looks as young as ever.
In a rare post on TikTok, Cher, 30, lip synced along to a quote from Motherland, as she said: “How long would you get off work if you got the Black Death?”
“In about 70 per cent of cases, you’d be off work forever,” someone was heard replying.
“Oh right, result!” she mouthed, as she clutched one of her children.
To which the person replied: “Because you’d be dead!”
Cher concluded the video with a grimace.
And the majority of comments on the video were from people stunned that she still looked as fresh-faced as she did 14 years ago.
“Every time I see you, you really look like a teenager, HOWWW???” one wrote.
To which Cher replied: “I get ID’d for Red Bull!”
The majority of stores won’t sell energy drinks such as Red Bull to anyone younger than 16.
And the Challenge 25 policy means that they are able to ask for proof of age from anyone who looks under 25 before making the purchase.
“How young do you look?” another wrote in the comments.
“Cher is going to be one of the women who gets more attractive as they age,” someone else speculated.
While others were stunned when they came across Cher’s TikTok video.
“Stumbling upon Cher Lloyd’s tiktok and finding out she’s a mother is so surreal. What is happening right now??” one wrote.
Cher has two children with husband Craig Monk.
