Join us for an exhilarating episode as we delve into the fabulous world of Cherry West, Scotland's youngest and most vibrant drag sensation. At just 16 years old, Cherry has already taken the drag scene by storm, showcasing incredible talent and charisma that belies her age. In this episode, we get up close and personal with Cherry, exploring her journey from a budding performer to a rising star.

Cherry West doesn't just break boundaries; she shatters them. As a performer, host, and event producer at Red Presents UK, Cherry brings her unique blend of live singing, lip-syncing, and dance to audiences across the UK. We'll discuss her awe-inspiring performances at iconic events like Glasgow Pride and Edinburgh Pride, her radio appearance on Capital Scotland, and her recognition as a finalist for the Entertainer Award at the Proud Scottish Awards 2023.

But that's not all! Cherry's dreams of Rupaul's Drag Race UK. We'll uncover her journey towards this aspiration, her meticulous preparations, and how her supportive parents have been instrumental in her burgeoning career.

Join us as we challenge stereotypes, celebrate individuality, and explore the boundless creativity that is the essence of drag.

You'll find them every weekend at the Barras Market, serving up sustainable style with a punk-rock edge and a generous sprinkle of y2k nostalgia.

Jenny and Shona are also 1/2 of the driving force behind Clique Glasgow, a collective of four local designers along with Kennedy Designs and Violet Vintage with a mission to make sustainability sexy. They're planning creative events, fashion shows, networking nights, and a whole lot of fun!
