Netflix's 'Bling Empire' Season 1 was described as the 'Crazy Rich Asians' of reality TV, following extremely wealthy Asians and Asian-Americans in LA and their extravagant lives. The reality show was the peak of rich people being rich. Fans were head over heels in love with Season 1 and all the glitz and glam it has to offer. The much anticipated ‘Bling Empire’ Season 2 is set to premiere on May 13 and the new season will be back with more glitz, more glam, and more drama.

'Bling Empire' is produced by Jeff Jenkins, who previously worked on 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians'. The Netflix show exposed the over-the-top lives and personal drama of a group of wealthy Asian and Asian-American friends living in Los Angeles, and viewers got to see how they spend big on last-minute holidays, clothes, and lavish parties. Season 1 introduced viewers to Cherie Chan who became a fan favorite for her humble nature and also the fact that she was not part of any drama. Cherie focused primarily on her pregnancy and her mother's passing in Season 1. However, what surprised the viewers was when she also mentioned that before she became a successful businesswoman, she was a budding pop star in Japan. Scroll down to learn more about this.

Who is Christine Chiu? Meet the 'Bling Empire' cast member who is known to drop $100,000 on a single gown

Cherie Chan is married to Jessey Lee, and they both share daughters Jadore and Jevon Lee. She was one of the few cast members to have stayed out of all drama in season one and focused primarily on her pregnancy and the passing of her mother. However what shocked the viewers was when Cherie revealed that before becoming a successful businesswoman, she was set to become the next big pop star in Japan.



 

When she was younger, Cherie wanted to be a singer and even signed a contract with Sony Music label in Japan to pursue her dreams. In Season 1, Cherie shared with the viewers that the label made sure she had a lavish lifestyle and that she had everything she needed and more, including a loft with a view of Mount Fuji. She was having the time of her life becoming a pop star, but her mother, Cindy Tran like any Asian mother, wanted her to have a more stable career, and therefore, she abandoned her music career for her mother.



 

Cherie has always been close to her mother and apparently held no resentment toward her mother over the decision and this was evident in Season 1. When Cherie’s mom passed in 2019, Cherie had a difficult time dealing with her grief. Viewers saw her working through it in season one of 'Bling Empire', and one of the episodes was even dedicated to Cindy Tran.

What is Cherie Chan's Net Worth?

Despite her music career not working out, Cherie managed to advance in life and today she is a successful businesswoman with a massive fortune. In Season 1 of 'Bling Empire,' Cherie Chan is introduced as an heiress to her family's denim empire. She also started her own tequila company with her husband and they named it Religion Tequila. Her husband Jessie also owns a successful furniture company. Together with her husband Jessey Lee, the couple has an estimated net worth of around $200 million. 



 

‘Bling Empire’ Season 2 is set to premiere on May 13 exclusively on Netflix.
