London
(ANI):
American
pop
singer
Cher"s
son
arrived
at
the
GLAAD
media
awards
with
his
new
girlfriend
Jennifer
Elia.
Chastity
Bono,
the
son
of
63-year-old
singer
walked
the
red
carpet
with
girlfriend
Jennifer
Elia.
“I
didn"t
have
a
clue
he
used
to
be
Cher"s
daughter
–
they
look
nothing
alike.
I
didn"t
know
who
he
was," an
onlooker
promoting
lesbians,
gays
and
bisexuals
working
for
arts
said.
Chaz
began
to
change
his
gender
in
March
2009,
starting
with
the
surgical
process.
After
the
sex
change,
Chaz
banished
Chastity"s
feminine
blonde
hair
and
flowery
dresses,
reports
The
Daily
Express.
The
41-year-old
activist
had
earlier
said
that
it
was
the
'best
decision
of
his
life'.
“I"ve
struggled
a
lot
getting
here.
If
by
being
public
other
people
can
see
this
and
not
have
to
struggle
as
much
as
I
did,
then
I"m
happy
to
do
that,"
Chaz
added.
Chaz
also
revealed
that
his
father
Sonny
Bono
accepted
Chaz"s
decision
without
any
tantrums
but
mother
Cher
'went
ballistic."
Two
years
ago,
Cher
had
thrown
Chastity
out
of
her
house
when
her
daughter
revealed
that
she
was
in
love
with
Jennifer.
But
they
later
patched
up.
