Toronto's latest SUNshine Girl brings more than just a smile to the pages of the Toronto Sun. Cherie, who graced the publication's popular feature, carries a nickname with a rock 'n' roll pedigree and a passion for music that fuels her off the page.
A Nickname with a Classic Rock Edge
The origin of Cherie's moniker is a direct nod to the rebellious spirit of rock. Her nickname is inspired by the classic Joan Jett & the Blackhearts song 'Cherry Bomb.' This connection hints at the energetic and bold personality that defines her both in front of the camera and on stage.
Life as a Guitarist in Fettish
Beyond her modeling work for the Sun, Cherie channels her creativity into music. She is an active guitarist in an all-Asian girl rock band called Fettish. This involvement highlights a growing and dynamic segment of Toronto's diverse music scene, showcasing talent and breaking stereotypes in the rock genre.
Capturing the SUNshine Girl Spirit
The photographic series featured in the Toronto Sun was captured by staff photographer Jack Boland. The gallery showcases Cherie in multiple poses, embodying the cheerful and vibrant aesthetic characteristic of the long-running SUNshine Girl feature.
