The ultra-conservative Media Research Center even claimed casting Bono was “part of Hollywood’s insistence on tearing down traditional families.”

Regardless, Chaz has gotten a lot of love from plenty of other sources, including his very famous mother, Cher.

Cher’s musical career has been fairly low profile since she scored a massive late ’90s hit with ‘Believe,’ but her influence continues to be felt in the larger-than-life style of many younger artists — including Lady Gaga, who’s planning to acknowledge that debt with a duet that just might melt the dance floor.

They’re teaming up to record ‘The Greatest Thing,’ a song Gaga offered Cher for her upcoming album.
