Cassandra Whitehead

(to FORT in an interview talking about why she didn't want to cut the last inches they asked her hair) Cassandra: Well, the haircut was kind of like the last straw, it was the icing on the cake. They were trying to change my style, my personality, and my attitude as part of the complete makeover. It wasn't even about my physical appearance anymore, it was about my whole persona. I wasn't willing to change for what was, in my opinion, the worse in order to pursue this. I always told myself that I would never change for anybody. I never have, and I never will. So, if that means I'm not going to have success on the show, then in the long run that's okay with me.

(about "America's Next Top Model") Cassandra: If this doesn't work for me, I am definitely going to go back to pageants because I think they help you develop more as a woman, where modeling's just more of a career.

(in her audition video for "America's Next Top Model") Cassandra: I am really easy to work with, and I think photographers and makeup artists will love me, because I will do what you tell me.
