Cassie Archives

Sean “Diddy” Combs dresses up as the Pope and lays his holy hands on singer Cassandra “Cassie” Ventura (as Wonder Woman) at his Halloween party at New York City’s Lucky Strike Lanes.

Diddy, 39 tomorrow, and Cassie, 22, have never publicly come forward about being romantically involved.

Cassie even told People on July 9: “We are not together, but we are definitely friends. We work hard together, so it makes a good combo.”

Diddy signed Cassie to his label Bad Boy Records, which released her debut album Cassie in 2006.

DO YOU THINK Diddy and Cassie are a couple???

White-hot singer Cassie (in Pencey) strikes a few poses at the launch of Madison Square Garden’s new “NYC Sound Tracks” series at Metrazur Restaurant in New York City on Tuesday.

Cassie’s second album is due out in September, with producers Kanye West and Pharrell. Her Official Girl video release with Lil Wayne is scheduled to drop next month.

On the personal end, Diddy and Cassie were reportedly trying to avoid be photographed together at the Marquee yesterday. Apparently the pair got into the same car despite slipping out at different times.

WHAT DO YOU THINK about Diddy kickin’ it with Cassie — YAY or NAY?

Cassie attends the Pepsi Smash relaunch party at Pasha nightclub on the Upper West Side of Manhattan on Thursday night.

Earlier this month, the 21-year-old R&B songstress did an interview for Billboard about her as-yet-untitled sophomore album, which is set to be released on May 20.

“I guess I grew up a lot but I’m still in essence the same person,” Cassie says. “Lots has changed in my life, stuff that has made me think about things differently. I’m more vulnerable and you can hear my vocals better this time around. There’s real emotion and a much realer connection with my fans.”

Although a first single hasn’t been released, Cassie assures it will be “a club record — something fun and danceable.”
