After Amanda Bynes came for Cher unprompted, one Twitter user brought the comments to Cher’s attention on the social media platform. “Are you upset @amandabynes called you ugly and a flop?” read the since-deleted tweet (via Heavy). In response, Cher tweeted, “Who’s 4that? Wait .. Is this another WTF IS MDMA.” While Bynes didn’t respond to Cher directly, she didn’t seem happy with Cher’s response. “This is my Twitter. I say whatever I want. Thanks!” tweeted Bynes shortly thereafter (via Today).

Instead of responding to Bynes in kind, Cher decided to go easy on the young actor. “You got That One Right! SORRY About shade, Sweet Heart, it was unintentional… Promise,” tweeted Cher. Given that Bynes was clearly in the wrong, Cher’s apology shocked those watching their exchange unfold. However, she had a great reason for turning the other cheek. “I never understood the thing about not saying you’re sorry because it’s so easy…it doesn’t take any time and it just dissolves all the bad feelings,” Cher revealed to E! News. “It just lets it go, and we can’t hold on to that kind of stuff. It makes you sick.”
