Born and raised in Portsmouth, VA, Chantel is 25 years old and is one of six children. Of the children five were female and one male. However, Chantel never quite fit in with the girls, as you would always catch her jumping out of trees, playing sports, or wrestling-never dancing, playing hopscotch, or roping with the girls. She liked to dismantle things, play video games, and was a straight A student. Therefore, when you said the name Chantel Cherry, no one would ever guess that MODEL would be on her list of occupations.
As she matured she would always receive comments about her pursuing modeling because of her slim build and abnormal height advantage over her other siblings. Modeling still never crossed her mind as she continued to play sports and focus on athletics throughout her high school and college career. In high school, she used to watch "America's Next Top Model" on television and deep inside knew she had what it took to be a model as far as work ethic and dedication, but never felt like she was pretty enough or had the right body for modeling. It wasn't after college that she actually attempted modeling, as she was introduced to a local artist who was really looking for extra girls to be in his video. When approached at the idea, she was timid and afraid at the thought of being on camera. So after that video, she began becoming more and more comfortable in front of the camera. She began setting up her own shoots with local photographers and that's when she realized may have what it takes.
Chantel's journey as an aspiring model started when she moved to Orlando, Florida. Not really knowing who to talk to or how to get started, she would often research the modeling and entertainment industry. She began booking small gigs and networking to establish herself as a well-known freelance model in Orlando. Chantel is now a model under Prolific Worldwide (www.prolificworldwide.com) and is ready to continue her journey as a model and eventually expand her talents to other areas of the entertainment industry, such as acting, dance, or music. Ultimately, she hopes to follow in the footsteps of prior moguls such as Kimora Lee-Simmon, Kim Porter, and Naomi Campbell.
