It's been a long wait for Cher fans after the singer went on hiatus 12 years ago.
However, the legendary singer is finally back with a new single Woman's World and accompanying video, which exclusively premieres today on the MailOnline.
Although she's been away from the charts for over a decade, Cher shows her penchant for wigs hasn't dimmed as she shows off a variety of flamboyant creations.

Perhaps poking fun at the untrue rumours written about her over the decades, Cher wigs out in headgear made of old newspaper cuttings.
In another sequence, she wears a more traditional white number with black flecks, before going back to the '70s in a bushy red wig.
As you would expect from the 67-year-old diva, Woman's World is a thumping dance track, which will no doubt find it's way on to many DJs' playlists for Saturday nights on the dancefloor.

And while Cher is the main attraction in the video, she is joined by a variety of women of
different races, ages and appearances in the female empowerment track.
The video proves for humorous scenes as split screens appear to give Cher different people's bodies and outfits as she belts out the song.
The single is the first release from Cher's upcoming comeback album Closer To The Truth - her first release in 12 years and follow-up to her 2001 disc Living Proof.

Fans will remember Woman's World first premiered with Cher's first live performance in over 10 years on the season finale of The Voice in June.
However, after a limited release in the US at the time, the single will now be officially released on October 13, with the album following on October 14.
Only time will tell if the catchy track proves as popular at Cher's mega hit Believe, which sold an amazing 1.7million copies in the UK.

The new video comes a week after another one of Cher's tracks The Greatest Thing, which was co-written by Lady Gaga, leaked online.
With a host of awards behind her, including Grammys and Oscars, Cher has been a figurehead of the charts since the early '60s.
Among her biggest hits include I Got You Babe - with ex-husband Sonny Bono - If I Could Turn Back Time and The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss).
Although Cher has been away from the recording studios for a while, she has been busy performing, including a three year residency in Las Vegas.

Cher goes back to her fashion roots in a boho blouse

Her career has spanned over 50 years, so it's not surprising that Cher has had dozens of fashion incarnations.

Over the years she has worn everything from flares to sequined leotards, but if this look is anything to go by it seems that Cher is taking fashion inspiration from her Californian hippie roots.

A sheer gypsy style shirt is a really great summery buy, and will add an air of boho chic to any wardrobe.

Like Cher you can wear yours with fitted jeans or denim shorts, or go for the full retro look by wearing a sheer gypsy blouse with a pair of flared jeans and open toe platform sandals.
