Cherie DeVille

Cherie DeVille is an American performer, director, writer and creator whose professional path has made her one of the longer-running modern figures in adult entertainment and whose work has spanned performance, directing, writing and production.

She has also been credited under the names Cherie Deville and Cherie De Ville. Before entering adult entertainment, her prior professional work was as a licensed physical therapist. Her professional adult-industry work began around 2011 after modeling, and what started as a part-time experiment eventually became her primary profession.

Over time, she expanded from studio performance into directing, writing and self-produced content, broadening her work beyond performance alone. Self-produced work became an increasingly large part of her day-to-day business and creative control. By 2023, she had spent twelve years in the industry and shifted toward operating her own content business.

Her award record includes multiple XBIZ and AVN MILF Performer of the Year wins, and in 2017 she won the XBIZ MILF Performer of the Year category. She also grew into an independent producer. After that 2017 honor, she continued expanding her independent work. Her career combines performance with directing, writing, self-produced content and production.
