Chaz Bono is terrified his hard-working mom Cher could end up dead – just like Joan Rivers.
Ordered on bed rest, the diva, 68, is suffering an acute viral infection that has forced her to reschedule stops on her “Dressed to Kill Tour.”
“Chaz believes his mom is pushing herself way too hard and could suddenly pass away like Joan,” said a source close to the music legend. “Lord knows, Cher doesn’t need the money– she’s already worth $305 million!
“She’s had too many health issues in the past to be gambling with her life now. Chaz thinks his mother should pack it in.”
In the past, Cher has cancelled six Las Vegas shows in less than a month because of asthma-related bronchitis.
And for more than 20 years, the Oscar winner has suffered from the debilitating Epstein-Barr virus.
