Cher has uploaded a photograph of herself - with her new hairstyle - onto Twitter.
Cher announced on Christmas Eve that she had cut herself a fringe/bangs; "I got up at 6AM and cut bangs!... I only look 50 with bangs!!"
However, since then, we haven't seen Cher - or even heard from her on Twitter. That is until now!
Just moments ago, the star briefly returned to the social networking site to upload a photograph of herself - with the new hairdo - taken during "Christmas dinner". The 66-year-old, who popularized bangs in the 1960's, hasn't sported the look for many years - well, not with her real hair.

The Top Cher News Stories Of 2012
Join me as I take a look back at the top Cher news stories of 2012!
Of course - like always - Cher has been in the news many times this year. Some stories picked up by major publications include her ongoing spat with Donald Trump, the upcoming Broadway play based on her life and her announcement that fellow superstar Pink had wriiten tracks for her new album.
In this past month alone she pleased fans with the re-release of her 2000 online-only album 'Not.com.mercial', and the announcement that her upcoming album will be released in March was met with mixed reactions by those fans. This past month also saw Cher do a private performance in Russia.

PHOTOS: Cher's Home Gets Dressed Up For Christmas
Whilst those of us that celebrate Christmas have dressed up our homes with Christmas trees, lights, tinsel and other festive decorations, Cher has shown that she isn't any different from us - she's tweeted about her own decorations. However, Cher's are slightly more grand than ours - as expected!
The 66-year-old superstar, who sang background vocals on Phil Spector's late-1963 festive album 'A Christmas Gift For You', tweeted about her decorations for the December 25 celebrations.

More Photos of Cher In Russia: The Ageless Diva In A Familiar Costume
We already knew what Cher would be wearing for her 14 December one-off Russia gig - the 'Believe' hit-maker shared on Twitter two weeks before-hand that she would be digging out costumes from her past tours and 2008-2011 stint in Las Vegas.
If you've already seen the video clip of highlights from the Russia gig, you'll have seen some of the outfits that Cher returned to for her performance.
One outfit she donned for the private gig was the Indian-inspired one she wore during her 'The Farewell Tour', whilst singing 'All or Nothing' among other hits.

UPDATED! PHOTOS: Cher in Russia
As I'm sure we all know, Cher performed a private one-off concert in Russia on 14 December. Of course, we all wanted to see some footage of the show - or at least some photos. Although nothing from the private Russia gig has yet turned up, we do have some photos of the 'Believe' singer in Russia.
Two photos of Cher in the country appeared on the singer's Twitter account. Whilst uploading the first of the two, she wrote, "Russia is great! Cold but great! Here is a picture of me wearing my friend's hat!"

PHOT0S: Cher at LAX Airport
Cher was photographed at LAX Airport in Los Angeles.
All in black, including leggings, boots, leather coat and a large hat, Cher was snapped passing through LAX Airport - seemingly on her way to Russia, where she is due to perform a gig in a few days.
As well as the large black hat, Cher topped off her look with a large silver handbag and a pair of dark sunglasses. Although she still looked stunning, the outfit was low-key - for Cher's standards - with the 66-year-old sporting her real hair as opposed to one of her trademark wigs.

Cher's New Album To Be Released In March
Billboard has stated that Cher's 25th studio album will be released in March 2013.

After all, we've been waiting for the album for what seems like centuries - and March seems like a long way away right now. However, at least we now have something official about the album's release date.
Ending the release date guessing game for us, Billboard.com wrote, "Cher's next studio album, her first since 2001's 'Living Proof', is due out in late March."

Whilst the release of Cher's 'Woman's World' has been making headlines online across the globe, many publications have been briefly reviewing the comeback single - and we've got most of the reviews here!
examiner.com says:
"'Womans' World' opens with bouncing clud beats as Cher sings, 'I'm dancing so low in the dark.' Age is nothing but a number as she sells the track with a fierce delivery. The chorus is then enveloped in a wall of sythesizers when Cher's bold voice powerfully belts: 'Thisis a woman's world!' She's been around since the 1960s, but leaves her mark unfazed in 2012 with this electro banger."

Those that were hoping for an expanded version of Cher's new album may not be disappointed.
As one Twitter user pointed out to Cher, a good portion of CDs released these days come in a standard version and a deluxe version – sometimes the latter is released on the same day, sometimes it's later on down the line.
So, with Cher's new album scheduled to be in stores in the upcoming months, many have been wondering if an expanded version of the album - containing an extra disc - will be released.

'Collide' Is Apparently Nowhere To Be Seen On Cher's New Album
Cher has insinuated that 'Collide' is not a song from her new album.
A few days back, before the whole 'Woman's World' leak happened, two new Cher song titles surfaced - 'Woman's World' and 'Collide' - thanks to their new presence on the 'ASCAP' (The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) website.
In the following days, 'Woman's World' was confirmed when it was leaked. However, Cher seemed puzzled when the song title 'Collide' was brought up.
On social networking site Twitter, 'Cher News' tweeted what many of us believe to be a partial tracklist of Cher's new album;
"Partial tracklist of Cher's new album: 'Woman's World' ;'I Walk Alone'; 'Red'; 'The Greatest Thing'; 'Collide'; 'You Haven't Seen The last Of Me'"

PHOTO: Cher attended Party Where Ex-Boyfriend Val Kilmer Did One-Man Show
A few hours ago, Cher was at a party in Los Angeles where actor, and old lover, Val Kilmer did a one-man show. Luckily for us, Cher uploaded a photo of the pair together at the event onto her Twitter page.
She tweeted, “I was just at a party where Val (Kilmer) did an unbeliavable one-man show about [American author and humorist] 'Mark Twain' - which he wrote. Oh my God! I Took pictures but the car is too bumpy.”
Kilmer was scheduled to perform his one-man show, 'Citizen Twain', at the Shakespeare Center of Los Angeles for two performances on 19 & 20 October but had to pull-out of the second of these shows due to a knee injury.

'Not.com.mercial' CD Re-release – Remastered, New Cover! And Autographed Copies!
Superstar Cher has revealed plans to re-release her 2000 internet-only album 'Not.com.mercial' – including autographed copies!
Between the release of her best-selling studio album of all-time, 1998's 'Believe', and her 2001 dance-pop follow-up 'Living proof', Cher released 'Not.Com.Mercial' via the internet in 2000. It consisted mostly of songs she had penned herself in the decade before.
Its modest release and lack of major promotion let the album slip under the radar of many fans and most of the public. However, the fans who did catch onto the album, which was initially available for download and then appeared as a limited CD release, immediately crowned it as one of her best.
