History

Chérie FM is created in 1987 in Paris by Jean-Paul Baudecroux on the then defunct frequency of Gilda la Radiopolitaine. Chérie FM then started broadcasting nationally in 1989 when the NRJ Group acquires the frequencies of Pacific FM. Most frequencies of the station were affiliated to Chérie FM (but the Parisian frequency of Pacific FM was used to create Rire & Chansons).

In 1992, the NRJ Group decides to expand the Chérie FM network outside France, to launch Chérie FM Belgique in Belgium broadcasting only in French in Wallonia and Brussels. Chérie FM stopped broadcasting in May 2008, after 16 years of activity.

A variant of the radio station on TV is launched by the NRJ Group on 12 December 2012, and is named Chérie 25. It broadcasts in France on TNT and in high definition. However, the programming is different from that of the radio station. Chérie 25 aims primarily to a female audience like Chérie FM, but the programming schedule includes magazines, documentaries as well as entertainment, TV series and movies.

Slogans

Since the creation of Chérie FM, several slogans were used:

  • From at least 1994 till 1997: Écoutez, vous allez chanter ! or Si vous l'écoutez, vous allez chanter ! (Listen, you will sing!)
  • From 1997 till: Jamais la musique ne vous aura fait autant de bien ! (Never the music would make you feel so good!)
  • From till: Douceur, émotion, passion (Softness, Emotion, Passion)
  • From at least 2005 till May 2007: Vos plus belles émotions (Your most beautiful emotions)
  • From May 2007 till 2008: Les hits qui font battre mon cœur (The hits which makes my heart beat)
  • From 2008 till November 2012: Vos plus belles émotions
  • Since November 2012: Toutes vos chansons préférées, Non stop (All your favorite songs, Non-stop)
