Sherayé has starred in the TV series "Leende guldbruna ögon" (Golden Brown Eyes) and "Kungamordet" (The Regicide).
A funny thing about "Golden Brown Eyes" is that a couple of months after the series had been aired, Sherayé went to a karaoke bar in Rågsved (near Stockholm), and she sang the song "Leende guldbruna ögon", and everybody stood up and did couple dancing to the song. A nice memorable moment for her! Click TV for more roles in television.

She is also a musician, singer and composer, and in April 2007 she released the single "Lalalaley" on Mondo Nuevo Records.
