Breakout star Euphoria, who has been praised for his sex-positive attitude, told the presenter that she’s currently “single but with like 10 people” and “is swinging.”
“Right now I like to see a few different people [at the same time],” she explained. “I think that’s the best way so far. I think the best way for me to be a good partner is to have other partners — not that they’re necessarily my partners, just others People in my life. Unless someone tells me they just want to be with me, I won’t do it.”
At 24, Cherry admitted she feels like she doesn’t yet know exactly what she wants in a committed relationship, so “dating multiple people has been the best thing for me to figure out what I want in another person and what not.”
Still, Cherry says of all the people she dates, there’s one she begins to focus on in particular. “There’s one of them that I really like more than the others, but it’s hard because I already have something of a friendship that I’ve formed with [the others]’ she explained of her pool of suitors, adding that she’s never been the kind of person who ‘must’ in a monogamous relationship.
Cherry admitted that in the past some of her significant other were “sugar daddies,” a term used to describe a man (usually older and wealthy) who showers gifts on a young woman in exchange for her company. But those times are over. “I don’t have any sugar daddies anymore. I still speak to some of these sugar daddies as friends, but we’re just friends now. I used to have a few of these,” she shared. “Having a sugar daddy is kind of like dating, except you date for other reasons because they offer you something, so you date based on what they offer you.”
The story goes on
She continued, “Having a sugar daddy has taught me a certain level of acceptance of treatment,” adding, “I will never again accept a guy who doesn’t at least try to take care of me in some way or to be kind of chivalrous. Why should I accept that when I know it’s out there? I know there are people out there who want to treat me really well.”
Cherry also spoke about her work in the adult film industry, where she has appeared in more than 200 adult films and has over 125 million views on PornHub.
“I don’t know if people will realize that it was really just a job,” the actress said of her life as a porn star. “A good job is what you can get through in a day. And that was a much more doable job than working in a restaurant or being a waitress or working 9 to 5. My brain can’t handle it [jobs]. I couldn’t get through the day. In adult film, I absolutely could.”
Cherry previously told Alex Cooper on the Call Her Daddy podcast that she was done with the adult film industry because her work had impacted her health and personal relationships.
“The only thing that sucks about working in porn is the way people treat you outside of the industry,” she explained. “Just so suddenly my friends that I was friends with in high school didn’t want to be friends anymore because they thought I was going to fuck their boyfriend. It’s like, I don’t want anything to do with your boyfriend.”
She also developed an eating disorder. “It all started when this agent I had in porn told me to my face that I was fat,” she explained. “He said, ‘Everyone says you’re fat and the quickest way to lose weight is to not eat.’ he said that to me and I was like, ‘What the heck?'” She has been in recovery since June 2020, which “has completely changed my life.”
