AE, a music executive, was holding the box with two fingers that featured painted nails of black lacquer with lime green flames.
Cher’s followers immediately started responding with questions about the ring’s meaning and if wedding bells were in the future.
In response, the Believe singer simply re-posted the same image an hour later with a different, cryptic caption.

‘I posted this cause his nails are so cool,’ she said by way of explanation but failed to dispel the engagement rumors.
The mysterious ring comes after sources recently told RadarOnline that the superstar was smitten with AE and wanted to tie the knot.
‘Cher is head over heels in love,’ the insider revealed. ‘She knows she doesn’t have much time left anymore to find ‘the one’ and after two failed marriages and countless disastrous boyfriends, this could be her LAST chance and she isn’t going to let it pass her by.’
The added: ‘Of course, her friends are worried. Whenever there is a 40-year-old and $400 million gap between two people, you have concerns!’

AE is the ex-boyfriend of Amber Rose, 39. After a storm of rumors that they were an item, Cher finally confirmed on Instagram last month that she is dating Alexander.
During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Cher poked fun at their 40-year age gap.
‘Well, on paper it’s kind of ridiculous,’ Cher admitted: ‘But in real life we get along great. He’s fabulous and I don’t give men qualities that they don’t deserve.’
She hailed Alexander as ‘very kind’ and added: ‘He’s very smart, he’s very talented and he’s really funny so – and I think he’s quite handsome.’
Cher noted: ‘If I hadn’t met younger men in my life, I would have never had a date, because older men just didn’t like me all that much, do you know what I mean?’

The If I Could Turn Back Time singer had ‘a couple boyfriends’ who were ‘hovering around my age’ but she felt that ‘they just didn’t like me for some reason.’
Cher shot to fame in the 1960s alongside her mentor and first husband Sonny Bono, whom she met when he was 28 and she was just 16.
By the mid-1970s their romance crumbled into a rancorous divorce, which she filed for on grounds of ‘involuntary servitude.’
On Kelly’s show she said: ‘Younger men don’t care if you’re, you know, funny or outrageous and wanna do stupid things and, you know, and you have a strong personality, you know? I mean I’m not giving up my personality for anybody, okay?’
‘Well, on paper it’s kind of ridiculous,’ Cher admitted: ‘But in real life we get along great. He’s fabulous and I don’t give men qualities that they don’t deserve.’
