CHER HELPED ASIAN ORPHANS DURING SICK LEAVE

Pop superstar CHER reportedly used her time off following the cancellation of her Las Vegas show to launch a charity mission for orphans in South Asia.
The 62-year-old singer axed a string of performances at the Colosseum at Caesar's Palace in October (08) after falling ill from an allergy related to Sin City's winds.
And when doctors ordered the star to cancel a series of concerts, Cher reportedly refused to rest up and instead jetted off to Nepal to help children in need.
A source tells the National Enquirer, "Cher absolutely hates downtime. She was on heavy antibiotics and her throat was killing her, but she was determined to use her time off to help others.
"Cher genuinely wants to help the less fortunate. She decided that her suffering was nothing compared to the orphans in Nepal who were waiting to see her."
