Cher has voiced her support for Britney Spears amid her ongoing battle to have her conservatorship removed.
The singer was placed under the conservatorship of her dad Jamie in 2008, granting him control of various aspects of her life.
During the hearing on June 23, Britney told Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Brenda Penny the conservatorship had left her “traumatised,” insisting: “I’m not happy.
“I can’t sleep. I’m so angry. It’s insane. And I’m depressed. I cry every day.”

And as fans and stars rushed to support the Toxic singer on social media, Cher insisted she would “try to call” the hitmaker to see how she can help.
“I HAVE WRITTEN SO MANY ANGRY,OVER THE TOP [TWEETS], BUT THEY HAVE CHANGED NOTHING,” she penned.
“I WILL TRY TO CALL. MIGHT NOT GET THROUGH… BUT I WILL TRY #FreeBritney.”
As the court hearing unfolded, the Believe star returned to the site to slam the legal arrangement, penning: “I SAID LONG AGO, EVERYONE ON THE STRIP HEARD ABOUT HER FATHER (Didn’t Know About Her Conservator Acting In Concert With Her Dad) GIVING HER DRUGS SO SHE COULD PERFORM, BUT MADE SURE SHE COULDNT HAVE A LIFE, BUT NO ONE COULD GET 2 HER [sic].”
