Cher and boyfriend Alexander 'AE' Edwards put on a loved-up display on Thursday as they attended the amfAR Cinema Against AIDS gala in Cannes, France.

The 78-year-old music icon — who attended Bob Mackie's documentary premiere earlier this month — planted a kiss on her 38-year-old beau on the red carpet.

The two stars, who have been dating since late 2022, coordinated in glamorous black outfits.

Cher, born Cherilyn Sarkisian, wore a snug-fitting gown with sheer panel details.

She added a plush fur coat to the ensemble, which she teamed with stone-covered platform heels.

The If I Could Turn Back Time singer wore sparkly fingerless gloves, showing off a long French manicure with silver tips.

Her long and glossy jet black hair was arranged in a center part and cascading spirals that spilled down her back and over her chest.

She flaunted a full face of makeup, looking radiant with pink-toned blush and a matching glossy lip color.

The longtime entertainer also wore a silver-toned nose ring for the splashy occasion.

For his part, Edwards looked great in a classic suit paired with a crisp, white button-up shirt.

He added matte black dress shoes and accessorized with eye-catching jewelry including earrings and rings.

When he smiled, he flashed a diamond-encrusted grill and his bleached hair was neatly cut.

Alexander, who shares four-year-old son Slash with ex-girlfriend Amber Rose, also showed a black manicure with colorful designs.

Joining the couple on the red carpet was 61-year-old actress Demi Moore.

Demi looked incredible as she bared her perky cleavage in a plunging white gown with a draped neckline.

The sleeveless number bared her impressively toned arms and she added open-toe high heels.

Her long, straight, raven locks were styled in an elegant updo.

And the silver screen siren was decked out in jewelry that included a long necklace and drop earrings.

In addition to smooches from her boyfriend, Cher was on the receiving end of affection from Demi, who kissed her head.

Earlier this month Cher cheekily quipped that she prefers to have younger boyfriends because all of the men in her age group have died.

While appearing on the Jennifer Hudson Show, she said she would rather date men from later generations, who 'were raised by women like me' and as a result were never scared of her.

Cher has a long had a reputation for dating younger men — she was involved with actor Rob Camilletti in 1986 when she was 40 and he was 22.

She and Alexander met at Paris Fashion Week in September 2022, and they went public with their romance that November.
