Who is Chloe Cherry? Meet the porn star making waves in Zendaya hit 'Euphoria'
A big part of Euphoria's appeal comes from its exciting ensemble cast. Among such massive talent, however, newcomer Chloe Cherry has stolen each scene she has been in as her character, Faye. Cherry in real life is an adult film star. However, before coming on screen as Faye, she had starred in 'Euphoria' parody pornography.
“My friend and I, who’s also an adult movie star, we were just both huge fans of the show and we thought that that one scene [with Rue and Jules] was just so beautiful,” Cherry, 24, told Nylon. “When you’re making a porn parody, the best way to make them is scenes like that, where they’re already insinuating that sex is about to happen,” Cherry continued. “So that’s usually what people would want to see in terms of a porn parody. Fans really, really liked it. They thought it was awesome.”

Cherry, a Pennsylvania native, said that she has failed to find too many dissimilarities between acting on mainstream TV and performing in pornography. When asked if she had wished to transition from sex flicks to studio productions, Cherry said, "Before I was an actress of any kind, I, as a viewer, never really saw difference between different kinds of movies. To me, it was all like, you’re all acting, you’re all beautiful people. So I guess as the viewer, I never really saw a difference in it, but I guess that was just me, maybe. I’m an actress, just through and through an actress."
Cherry explained how she has now become responsible for improvising a few of her 'Euphoria' dialogues after her years of experience on camera. “A lot of those lines, like the line of, ‘You’re probably eating that ginger’s ass for oxys,’ that I improvised,” she said. “Sometimes in the scenes [Levinson] would be like, ‘OK, just say whatever you want.’ Because he just wanted to see if I would say something funny. And that was one of them that he kept in there.” As fans appreciated her slick-speak, she said, "I was really glad that people liked that [line]. “I’m just so happy to make people happy. I’m so glad that people like Faye. It makes me so happy.”
