Cherry is a well-known model from the pinup world, making her a perfect fit for our retro Ducati. How did you get started in modeling?
I was sitting in a car at a car show and a photographer happened to snap a shot of me as I was sucking on a lollipop. That photo ended up on the cover of a magazine and I've been modeling ever since.
What's your definition of sexy?
I like a man with confidence and who is not trashy. I like men with class.
Describe yourself in three words:
Silly, unique and intelligent.
What is the most important lesson you've learned in life?
Never give up and keep fighting no matter how bad you think it is.
What is your favorite possession?
A little porcelain geisha encased in a glass box that my grandparents brought me from Japan.
What is something people would never guess about you?
I hate cherry printed stuff! My real name is Cherokee, but my nickname growing up was Cherry. People just assume that I like cherry stuff. I always feel bad when people buy me cherry printed things for my birthday. But I always pretend to love it.
What is the strangest shoot you have ever been on?
I shot in a swamp in Oregon in the middle of winter during an ice storm in a huge skeleton gown with Marie Antoinette hair. It was freezing, muddy and terrible, but the photos were totally worth it.
