Cherry Pimps Crowns Ariana Marie 2018 Cherry of the Year

CYBERSPACE — CherryPimps.com has announced 2018 XBIZ Female Performer of the Year nominee Ariana Marie as its very first Cherry of the Year.

Each month of 2017, Cherry Pimps selected and featured its Cherry of the Month, a "hot and fresh model," who earned a cash prize plus a two-day shoot with Dean Capture, the exclusive producer of Cherry of the Month. 

In April, Marie was selected as Cherry of the Month, which put in her the running to win Cherry of the Year. 

According to the company, during her reign as Cherry of the Month in April, she went above and beyond to promote her scenes, Cherry Pimps and her Cherry of the Month title.

Marie is social media savvy, exhibits outstanding professionalism on and off set and exudes a sexual confidence which all contributed to her being crowned 2018 Cherry of the Year, the company reported.

As Cherry of the Year, Marie received gifts and a cash prize of $1000 along with a full two-day photo shoot with Dean Capture. 

“Looking back at all of our amazing featured models in 2017, we wanted to find the one that most embodied what we searched for,” said Jack Avalanche, Traffic Pimps’ CEO. “Ariana Marie has the beauty, personality and poise to represent us and be our first 2018 Cherry of the Year."

Marie said, “Cherry Pimps has always been so good to me, I absolutely love working for them and Dean Capture is one of the nicest and most talented photographers in the industry. I was so surprised and grateful when I found out about being their Cherry of the Year. 

“My Cherry of the Year shoot was so much fun,” she added. “I had five scenes plus an interview over the two days on set. The interview was with Ryan Kelly and during the interview I was surprised by Cherry Pimps yet again with a huge teddy bear that had a backpack full of chocolate!

“I have a sweet tooth as Dean knows, and I always request Reese Cups on set when we shoot,” Marie concluded. “There was another surprise ... an envelope in the bag with $1,000! As if being named Cherry of the Year wasn’t enough, I wasn’t expecting that. Cherry Pimps really make their models feel appreciated and special, it is something I love the about them.”
