Cherry Jam

**Cherry Jam** is a character from Strawberry Shortcake.
This melodic Berry Girl came to Berry Bitty City to get away from the stressful life of a pop star. Little did she know, she would come to love this little town and decide to stay. But don't get her wrong, this musical diva is as sweet as her jams.

### Appearance

Cherry has fair skin with pale pink lips and amethyst eyes. Her long indigo-black silky hair has a slight curl on the tips with fluffy bangs and spiked forelocks covering her ears. She wears a hot pink headband with a pale pink flower sewn to the side of it with two hanging cherries. When she used to perform she wore pale indigo glittering streaks and a hot pink glittery star on her cheek. At times she may pull her hair into a ponytail.

Normally Cherry wears a dress with hot pink coloring on top separated from the pink skirt by a thin purple band adorned with her cherry flower ornament. A section of hot pink coloring is on the corner of the dress accent by dark purple dots. She wears a pair of violet and purple striped leggings with hot pink flats. When performing she wore a similar outfit composed of purple denim pants, a blouse styled like her dress, and hot pink boots.

Later in the series for casual outings Cherry wears a white top with sparkles surrounding a pink cherry image. The collar is hot pink to match her pants, and the sleeves are sky blue. She also wore a pale pink tank-top with a violet skirt, purple leggings, and hot pink sneakers accent with pale blue and white. Her other outfit was a purple shirt with lilac accents, fuchsia shorts, and white and hot pink flats.

### Personality

Talented and playful, Cherry Jam has a passion for fun and living a joyous life. Despite what others think she is a very kind diva and appreciates even the most littlest of thing shared with her, being naturally spoiled sweet. She has gained a lot of popularity and attention due to her stardom, but she honestly doesn't care about it. But because of this, she can struggle to express her true feelings and has a sullen side should this happen.

Her general personality is very calm and even-tempered, and she appears to be pretty wise. She tries to be honest with everyone, and she takes nothing for granted. She is much happier with a less-than hectic lifestyle.

In the episode Dance Puppy Dance she is completely different, and as the titular song began to annoy her she began to call out her friends and reprimand them all easily, even gave up writing music but in the end, she apologized for treating her friends like this.

## Official Profile

*"When this mega-star singer came to town, she found that Strawberry Shortcake and her friends were just the besties she'd been looking for! And they discovered that she's an ordinary girl and a great friend -- not a diva at all! Cherry and Strawberry totally inspire each other creatively, so whether they're singing or chilling, they're always in perfect harmony."*

## Talents

As a pop star, Cherry is very talented musically. She knows everything when it comes to singing and playing instruments, and is smart enough to extend what she knows to teaching others how to play- which comes in handy when she decides to become a music teacher in Berry Bitty City.

She can often be found playing her guitar and at a given notice can quickly burst into a song or musical piece if needed, usually to calm down a tense moment. She was shown doing her own writing for lyrics, most-likely implying she didn't have someone doing it for her back when she performed in the Big City.

## Trivia

* She has Asian, Polish and American South ancestry.
