95 Cassie

Cassie is one of the country’s most promising rising stars. A total package, she has racked up more professional accomplishments in a couple of years than most achieve in a lifetime. A model for the likes of Abercrombie & Fitch at the age of 14, a professionally trained dancer by 18, and the name attached to a hit single, “Me & U,” by the age of 20, this Connecticut native clearly knows to make her elders feel inadequate.

Though her breakthrough hit, “Me & U,” was written and recorded in 2005, it wasn’t until Cassie signed with Bad Boy in 2006 that the single reached No. 1 on R&B charts and her self-titled debut album rocketed to No. 4 on Billboard’s album charts. The success of Cassie's recording career also reenergized her modeling work; she became the lead model for Missy Elliott’s adidas clothing line, appeared as the star in Mario’s “Here I Go Again” video, and had her visage plastered in Times Square as part of a high-profile billboard campaign for Target.

Cassie ended 2006 by dispelling rumors that she would be leaving Bad Boy and confirming that work on her new album for the label would be taking place throughout 2007. In addition to music, Cassie revealed that she would be trying her overwhelming good luck in the world of fashion; she will be releasing her own line of T-shirts and hoodies. Lastly, Cassie announced her intentions to conquer the world of acting and is set to appear in an undisclosed movie due to begin shooting early this year.
