Cassandra Denise Waldon was a houseguest on Big Brother 1 (US).
Cassandra was known for her maturity in the house, preferring not to take part in most activities that were not required in order to maintain the air of dignity required by her profession. Her housemates respected her wishes and often regarded her as a mediator to their conflicts. In week 10, she was nominated alongside Curtis Kin and Eddie McGee, with Cassandra receiving 46% of the votes, resulting in her banishment in 6th place.

Retrieved from webcenter.bigbrother2000.aol.com Cassandra can be stirred (perhaps even shaken) by a good James Bond flick, enjoys the intellectual challenges of director Spike Jonze's offbeat "Being John Malkovich", and was charmed by Roberto Benigni's bittersweet "Life Is Beautiful". On her nightstand you'll find the latest in good books. Her favorites are all recent or current bestsellers, including Toni Morrison's "The Bluest Eye" (Oprah's book club selection for June 2000), Zadie Smith's critically acclaimed new novel, "White Teeth and Swell: A Girl's Guide to the Good Life", the clever lifestyle handbook assembled by fashion designer Cynthia Rowley and her longtime pal, style editor Ilene Rosenzweig. Cassandra knows her way around a good menu, and opts for such first-rate New York eateries as Rosa Mexicano, Maya and Brooklyn's Caribbean Cafe. Interested in both traditional and new media, Cassandra enjoys creative writing and poetry, but is most intrigued by projects that combine radio, TV, print and electronic media. She loves to shop, and loves to travel. Favorite destinations include the south of France, the beaches of Malaysia, and charming Ibiza on Spain's Mediterranean coast. |
