Even Cher herself got in on the jokes about her sudden affection for Pakistan

But Cher’s sudden affection for Pakistan is not a result of her being hacked, this was her actually thanking the Government of Pakistan for a project she has cared deeply about for at least the past four years
Cher unofficially adopted the cause of a lonely elephant, Kaavan, that was kept in Islamabad zoo all alone after his partner died in 2012. She joined an appeal towards the Pakistan Government a few years back to make things better for Kaavan or free him and send him back to Sri Lanka, where he came from many years ago.
Mark got Kaavan Water,Shade & Unchained. MARK IS TRYING EVERYTHING TO FREE HIM🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 pic.twitter.com/LWH93f8Eh0

She has repeatedly made many appeals over the years, including seeking Imran Khan and Fawad Chaudhry’s attention
My partner @markcowne is in Pakistan now with Kaavan 🐘. @ImranKhanPTI @fawadchaudhry please support @ftwglobal now and free Kaavan🐘‼️
— Cher (@cher) November 20, 2018
And finally today, the Islamabad High Court gave the verdict she had been hoping for, for the last few years
So of course she was very excited.
