Kristen Bell says Cher gave her the best life advice she’s ever received.
“Honey, if it doesn’t matter in five years, it won’t matter,” Bell said, recalling Cher’s words.
The duo, who starred together in 2010’s “Burlesque,” said they got along well because of their shared sense of humor.
According to US actress Kristen Bell, her collaboration with Cher taught her a lesson that has shaped her outlook on life to this day.
On a US talk show last Monday, where both Bell and Cher were guests, the duo spoke about their time together on the 2010 film “Burlesque” and their ongoing friendship since then.

“But listen, people often ask me, ‘What’s the best advice you’ve ever received?’ And I say it comes from you because you said to me, ‘Honey, if it doesn’t matter in five years, it won’t matter,'” Bell said on the podcast.
“This is from my mother. If it doesn’t matter in five years, then it won’t matter. And I’ve used it my whole life,” said the icon and singer of hits like Believe and Strong enough and added that this attitude has always been relevant to her.
Bell also talked about how easily she and Cher bonded on set and described a shared sense of humor that helped them get through filming.
“The way to get through dramatic or chaotic situations is to find someone to hold hands with in the corner and just laugh about everything,” Bell said, adding that she often did this with Cher or her co-star Stanley Tucci.
Cher, on the other hand, has a different method when it comes to dealing with setbacks.

“I thought of myself as a bumper car. You hit the wall, and you either hit the wall and stay there, or you hit the wall and come back, and then you go that way,” Cher said.
