226. Cherry Vanilla - Author, Groupie, Rock Star, Bowie, Warhol, Vangelis etc.

Cherry Vanilla has seen and done it all. She starred in the Andy Warhol UK production of "Pork," was part of the team that launched David Bowie in America, worked with New Age star Vangelis, and got signed to RCA Records as a recording artist — and that's not even half of it. In 2010, she released her no-holds-barred memoir, Lick Me: How I Became Cherry Vanilla, detailing her outrageous rock 'n' roll lifestyle.In our interview, Cherry details her intimate relationships with Bowie, Burton Cummings, Leon Russell, Kris Kristofferson, and others. She also had Stewart Copeland and Sting in her backing band, and counts director Tim Burton among her friends. It's a fairy tale and a fascinating story about sex, drugs, rock 'n' roll, and Warhol.
