Now, I'm positive I'm not the only person they contacted today, but man, how funny is this shit?? Cassie leaks her own tits to generate buzz, and now her label is threatening people to take the pics down. If you read the e-mails below, they even want me to hit them up to let them know the shit is down and tell them where I got the pics from like I'm the one who leaked them online (that would be their client Cassie lol). These niggas got life FUCKED up! They're lucky I took them down because Cassie is a grown ass woman and the pics ARE NOT copyrighted. Its whatever though, its not like they were that great to start with. This shit is crazy lol.
Long story short, I took the pics down and you can go ahead and add Cassie's name to my shit list (she'll be the least talked about though seeing her career ended in 2006 lol).
Okay, here's e-mail number one from Maggie Walsh:
You should have already received a cease and decease notice from Bad Boy to remove the unauthorized photos of Cassie on your web site. Please confirm with me when they have been taken down as they need to be removed IMMEDIATELY. Thank you for your cooperation.

Sad, sad stuff. Like really was it that serious?? I could see if they were someone important like Beyonce or Rihanna's tits, but they were just Cassie's! Those little ass titties aren't even worth Maggie or Andrew's time (though that lazy fuck Andrew just copied and posted that shit lol). Oh well, its over.
