Cassie Ventura

Hit R&B singer Cassie Ventura was born and raised in New London, Connecticut, and while attending the Williams School on the Connecticut College campus, she began her modeling career. After graduating from high school, she started taking classes at the Broadway Dance Center in order to pursue her career.

She was spotted at a club by producer Ryan Leslie. The two were introduced, and Cassie quickly became the focus of Leslie's Next Selection management group and was signed to his label, which is distributed by Sean Combs's Bad Boy Records. Leslie co-wrote and produced Cassie's first hit single, Me & U, in 2005, which reached #3 on the Billboard Hot 100, #4 on the Billboard Pop 100, and #1 on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.
