What a brilliant woman.

It seemed that once she was out of that house, her extrordinary personality bloomed.

Cassandra- You deserve the utmost happiness in life! You are loved by many.

Cassandra - I'm speachless! Your "exit" interview was AWESOME! (I voted you as my favorite houseguest on the official site every single day [except on EMMY day - Curtis looked so RAD in his tux!] ;))

You are an amazing lady. I hope this adventure was all that you wanted it to be. You have already gone so far in your life and you are going to be able to go wherever and do whatever you want! Life is wide open for you right now.

You are one classy lady -

Thanks for making our experience a CLASSY one!

(I loved your sense of balance in dealing with everyone else's quirkiness!)

Allow me to concur with all of you in praising Cassandra. As much as I wanted to ridicule this production, she pulled me up short.

Thank you, Cassandra! You are a class act, indeed.

I have to agree with all of you that Cass carried herself with great dignity and poise as we would all expect from her. Cass captured my heart in many ways. Though Cass maintained her own identity she was able to let lose a little, show some giggles, and even hug. Cass, to me, is an overall wonderful person. I appreciate her as a fellow woman and person. I wish her the best of luck in all her endeavors. :)

Oh, Zelda, I like your heart. How do you do that. I saw you explain it but didn't understand. Sorry to ask that here. **blushing**

Brittany: Jamie didn't cry enough for me.

Cassandra: I want to see smiles. Don't be depressed. Be happy.

Thank you, Cassandra.

And give Cassandra credit for not slapping Ghoulie Chen silly when Ghoulie insisted that Cassandra was "financially set."

Go Cassandra!

I liked her cousin's shirt. You can't have class without cass. This had to have been one of the hardest nomination/bainshments because the three I wanted, and felt, would be the final three were in it. The hosue will definitely not be the same.

Tawny32;

You can find out exactly how to do the hearts, and all the other graphics, in the Spam Room. Enter it before BB USA. I would just mess up trying to show how to do it. (To do a heart try typing a \ then clipart then {redheart})

Just my 2 cents, and hopefully successful attempt to help explain how to use graphics.

Cassandra, I will miss you. Most of all I will miss your smile, because there is something so infectious about your smile, when you smile I can't help but smile too. I was sad during your exit interview, but you still kept me smiling :)

Most of the messages here have probably rolled off and are gone, but there have been so many hundreds of messages about how much class you have, how well you handle yourself in every situation, how admired you are.

The first time you were nominated, I was so impressed at how, while the others were all thinking of themselves, you were there to help them through it, rather than feel sorry for yourself. Maybe your housemates didn't see it, but we sure did.

I would say that I wish you the best of luck, but it isn't necessary. You are the kind of person who makes her own realities, you don't need luck.

I always knew Cassandra was very intelligent and articulate, which were not the best attributes to bring to the BB house. It was definetly not a forum that best displayed her abilities. But in the interview she far outshined Julie Chen.

I have always resented the bold displays of ambition by some of the other hgs, especially Jamie. I hope of all of them that Cassandra gets the big breaks.

Whoa, hell yeah, Miss Cassandra blew me away with a seamless articulation of her thoughts, her issues, and her perspective on things in the house ... nary a stammer, stutter, nor `uh' or `ah' was anywhere in her syntax ... what a natural! ... Julie Chen seemed kinda bowled over by it ...

Whatever happens, Miss Cassandra will definitely be one interesting to hear more from in any format; be it more television, radio, print or the lecture circuit ...

She done me proud!

Cassandra's qualities in the house were too admirable for me to articulate here. I loved her even more after her interview than I did before it; although I have admired her throughout the show, losing her represents the loss of civility and reason in a world sorely lacking both. There is something amazing about someone who measures her words, speaks forcefully, and, despite our confessional culture, creates an aura of self- and other- respect. Thank you, Cassandra, for showing us again what constitutes dignity. I had begun to think it no longer existed.

Best
Tisha

Thanks Cassandra for coming into my life for the last 2 months, and making me think.

Good Luck in your next adventure!

In a world where some white people jump to belittle black people for any little thing, positive or negative (see negative posts about Cassandra for example), it is very important that black people are portrayed as positively as possible.

Of course, people like Enb will find anything to criticize a brilliant black woman.

Given the golden opportunity to trash the show, trash the concept, and trash her fellow house-mates, Cassandra did the exact opposite.

Her exit interview was a rare example of someone not only "taking the high road" but taking it WAY higher than the situation deserved.

She may have shown a "different" Cassandra on her audition tape, but I am glad she chose to show us the Cassandra we've seen over these past 70 days.

When the debacle we've all come to know as Big Brother USA is finally over, Cassandra will be remembered as the SINGULAR consistent bright spot of this failed entertainment venture.

Let us all keep in mind that not even the eventual "winner" of BB-USA will shine as brightly as Cassandra did tonight. She is the only one to whom the term winner can be applied.

Bye, Cass. We'll miss you. I hope to see you do more interviews. I'm going to e-mail Larry King and tell him to have you on if he ever does another show on reality tv. I imagine that your insights would invaluable.
