Cher is on Facebook.

And we're not just talking about a fanpage. We hear the singing superstar uses the social networking site to meet men!

A friend apparently convinced the Oscar winner to join Facebook after she complained about having trouble meeting men while in Vegas for her longstanding show at Caesar's Palace. She ended up meeting someone special, according to Chelsea Traille, a dancer who plays Coco in Cher's upcoming return-to-the-movies flick, Burlesque

"He thought she was an impersonator in Vegas," explained Traille, a former contestant on So You Think You Can Dance. "His friend was like, 'That's Cher you idiot!' He asked her and she was like, 'Yeah, that's me.' They met, they hang out. Now they're best friends."

No word if the man in question is Cher's current beau, comic writer Ron Zimmerman, but the two are indeed Facebook friends. Cher's rep did not immediately comment for this story.

We're also happy to report that Traille had nothing but praise for Cher. The first time they met was at a table read.

"Cher walks in like a rock star," she said. "She had rock star jeans with leather crosses, hair flowing. She's fierce. Her body is bangin'. Her waist is tiny. She's a yoga master. We were all like, 'What do you do?" and she said, 'Yoga.' "

Cher will be at the MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday. For up-to-the-second scoop, make sure to follow @marcmalkin and @brettmalec on Twitter.
