Congrats C! You are the 4th FOTM on the Cherry spot! How does it feel?
-It feels amazing. I feel so special that I was considered worthy of this honor by people who are definitely bigger Cherry fans than myself.
1. Tell us something about yourself.
-Hmm, let's see. I'm Courtney, for people who don't already know, and I'm 18 years old. I'm really obsessed with Harry Potter, I've reread the books and watched the movies more than I will ever care to admit. lol
2. What made you love Cherry? And when?
-Well, I started liking them in 2x03, because their little chat about Chuck's 'problem' was hilarious and I thought they were adorable. Then when I got season 1 on DVD for Christmas, and I was rewatching 1x14 that's when I started to love them.
3. Where does Cherry land when it comes to your favorite Gossip Girl pairings?
-Um, about 5th. But that doesn't mean I don't absolutely love them.
4. What's your favorite thing about them?
-Their concern for each other. Whenever everything's fine, they act like they don't care about each other or that they hate each other, but when somethings wrong the protectors in both of them kick in and I LOVE it. Especially on Chuck's side, because like I've said before, he doesn't care about a lot of people, and it warms my heart to know Serena is one of those people he does care about.
5. Is this your favorite spot on fanpop?
-Nope. That one goes to the Chanessa spot. Shout out to my BBATB girls! <3 Then the Chair spot, with Cherry's spot being my third favorite! :)
6. Favorite Cherry things?
Season; Season 1.
Episode; It's a tie between 1x14 and 3x02
Quote; "I told Rufus about Brown, because I was actually concerned for you."
Sweet Moment; When Chuck checks on Serena during Rufly's wedding in 3x05.
Sexy Moment; 1x12, The family that plays together stays together.
Underrated Moment; When Chuck wakes Serena up in 2x04. Definitely doesn't get enough love for it's amazingness.
Song; Sour Cherry, duh!
Funny Moment; 2x03 when Chuck tells Serena about his 'problem'. I can rewatch that scene over and over again. So funny.
7. If Cherry started dating, which character do you think would support them the most?
-I'm not really sure, because I honestly don't think anyone would be particularly happy about it. Maybe Vanessa? lol. I have no idea.
8. If they dating, would you want them as a fluffy couple or an angsty couple?
-Fluffy couple for sure. I want them to be fun, light, and happy to watch. We have enough angst on GG with the other couples, Cherry should be the exception.
9. You get to spend a minuet or two with the GG writers. What would you say?
-Well, first I'd tell them to make the awfulness of Ban happening to cease action. Then I'd tell them to make Derena endgame and I need Cherry bonding. And if I still had time after saying all that, I'd tell them to get Jenny back on my screen!
10. Its stealing time! You can steal one scene from all of these couple to Cherry.
Nate and Serena; Kitchen SEX!
Chuck and Vanessa; Gah, I hate stealing things from them. What about when Chuck's talking about their amazing sexual chemistry? Yeah, that works.
Dan and Serena; In 2x14 when they get caught by Rufus at the loft, but of course it'd be Lily catching Cherry. ;)
Nate and Vanessa; The one scene in 2x17, when Nate sends her the mask and she shows up at his door.
Chuck and Jenny; Oh no, Chenny scenes are way too precious. I can't give any of them away.
Jenny and Nate; Fashion show kiss.
Nate and Blair; There is absolutely nothing I'd want to steal from them, seriously, I hate them. lol
Chuck and Blair; The first scene in 4x08, when he's under the covers and Serena walks in. But instead it's Serena under the covers and Blair walks in. OMG!
11. Would you give up your favorite scene of your favorite couple for Cherry?
-Nooooo. Giving up Derena's first time would be awful. Can't do that, sorry Cherry.
12. Could anything make you stop loving Cherry?
-I honestly don't think so.
13. 3 songs which reminds you of Cherry?
Sour Cherry by The Kills
Closer by Nine Inch Nails
Hot Mess by Cobra Starship
14. Would you still love them if Serena and Chuck weren’t played by Blake and Ed?
-Probably not. One of the things that make me love them the most is their awesome chemistry, and with out Blake and especially Ed in that situation? No.
15. Do you prefer Chuck and Serena as friends, family, or potential lovers?
-Potential lovers. I used to just like them as a pre-pilot thing, and now the friends/family stuff. But now that this Ban thing is happening, all the consequences of Cherry getting together went out the window, so I say HELL YES!
16. This or That?
Blake or Ed; ED!
Serena or Chuck; Chuckles
Cherry or Chair; Chair
Cherena or Cherry; Cherry
Season 1 or season 2 (for Cherry); Season 1
“Are you okay?” or “Sometimes I envy you”; Sometimes I envy you
Concerned Chuck or Concerned Serena; Concerned Chuck
17. Now that it’s officially confirmed that Dair is going to happen, do you think that Cherry would get closer?
-Well, I sure hope so. I really think this is something they would bond over. Serena is gonna feel totally betrayed by both Dan and Blair, and since Serena knows Chuck is probably not too happy about this either, I could see her going to him.
18. The writers tell you that you need to change one thing about Cherry. What would it be?
-Hmm, I would change their lack of screentime. They need more of it!
19. Cherry have a fling for a couple of episodes and they are a fail! People start to attack them, do you defend them?
-It's impossible for Cherry to be a fail.
20. What would you say to a Cherry endgame?
-I'd say nah. If Derena, Chair, Chenny, or Chanessa couldn't be endgame, then I'd say yes though.
End of Interview! Any last words?
