Cher has been spotted taking her boyfriend Alexander 'AE' Edwards out for dinner in LA ahead of the Grammy awards.

The loved up pair - who have a 40 year age gap between them - were seen together at the swank Beverly Hills sushi haunt Matsuhisa, just two days before the music awards take place.

Cher, 76, looked as stunning as ever, went for silver trousers, a black top and a monochrome jacket as she took her 36-year-old boyfriend by the hand.

She went for her usual full glam makeup as well as platinum blonde locks and finished her look with a plain black handbag.

Cher and AE looked loved up as they walked together hand in hand on Friday night.

In December Cher appeared on The Kelly Clarkson Show where she poked fun at the 40-year age gap between her and her toyboy who is a Def Jam music executive.

She said: "Well, on paper it's kind of ridiculous but in real life we get along great. He's fabulous and I don't give men qualities that they don't deserve."

She said Alexander is "very kind" and said: "He's very smart, he's very talented and he's really funny so - and I think he's quite handsome."

Cher added: "If I hadn't met younger men in my life, I would have never had a date, because older men just didn't like me all that much, do you know what I mean?"

The Believe singer found fame in the 1960s alongside her mentor and first husband Sonny Bono.

The pair met when he was 28 and she was just 16.

However, by the mid-1970s their romance crumbled into a divorce, which she filed for on grounds of involuntary servitude.

On Kelly's show Cher said: "Younger men don't care if you're, you know, funny or outrageous and wanna do stupid things and, you know, and you have a strong personality, you know? I mean I'm not giving up my personality for anybody, okay?"

Cher finally confirmed her new relationship on Instagram last month.
