Biography
Kassandra Livingston is an ordinary teenage girl who leads a double-life as a successful pop sensation. Like the rest of her family, she is originally from Italy, and currently lives in Long Island, NY with her father David Cook, and mother Carly Smithson. and two siblings Abigail and Timothy. and like Kassandra, currently leads a double life. Amanda is Kassandra's bodyguard who protects her and her family, whether they like her or not.

When Kassandra arrives at her brother's highschool alongside Yoko and Ashley, Kassandra,Yoko and Ashley get pranked for a few months. Due to her double life,Kassandra is often involved in awkward situations (such as sleeping in late on a school day after a concert or going on date as Kassandra to one of her concerts.

Personality
Kassandra's nemesis in school are Katie Yu and Nikita Chang, who are constantly mean to Kassandra and her friends, but happen to be huge fans of Kassandra Livingston (popstar). Later, she gets used to her school, and even meets a famous teen actor named Allen Alvarado, with whom she has an on-off relationship.

Kassandra has a few signature phrases which she uses very often, such as "Oh Man! Dad Ain't Gon' Like This!"(whenever someone states the obvious), and "Oh Shit!",(usually when frustrated or in panic). The phrase "Jesus Christ!" is also used several times by her and other characters. The character's comic persona is also known for being extremely goodie-goodie two-socks, and Livingston has to contend with people liking Kassandra Livingston (popstar), but disliking her as Kassandra, and vice versa. This is especially evident when Kassandra Livingston (popstar) interacts with her rival, Maeria (who likes Kassandra), but in the episode "Choose Between", she must accept being friends with her.

Kassandra also has a stuffed doll named Gertrude, who is seen in many episodes. She has had Gertrude ever since she was six and according to Miley, has been with her for everything.
