Another eviction night and another houseguest gone. I'm going to make it short on the episode recap because I'm sure everyone saw this coming.

 

The most notable part of the episode is when Frankie goes to the diary,finds a letter from his mother and is informed that his grandfather has passed away from cancer. At this point, I'm actually in tears. It's heartbreaking to see Frankie find out this information. He tells a story of how his grandfather accepted him after coming out. The house comes together for Frankie and comforts him. It's truly touching and if you were watching, you were also probably crying.

 

Let's get to the eviction. It's Brittany and Donny on the block. They make their speeches but it's a 10-0 vote and Brittany is evicted from the Big Brother house.

 

The HOH comp is called Country Hits. Two players will face each other as they listen to a country song that describes either an HOH,POV or BOTB comp that they have had so far. The houseguest to answer correctly will move on and chose another two to face off. In the end,** Frankie and Zach win** and are the new HOHs.

 

Brittany Martinez was the fourth houseguest evicted from the Big Brother house. The mother of three fought hard until the very end, kicking 2,400 goals in 24 hours. We talked about her eviction, the goal punishment and the Team America shocker.

 

RW: You got to see your kids last night and I'll be honest, it made me tear up. How did it feel to see your kids after so long?

Brittany: Well, it was interesting because I kept on thinking to myself of how long of a car ride it was going to be until I see my kids. I was not expecting to have an interview with Julie and then have them come out with the soccer ball I kicked the whole time. It was very emotional. It made me forget about how bummed I was to walked out that door.

 

RW: Why do you think the guys almost immediately viewed you as a threat in the house?

Brittany: I don't know. You know, some people say that I'm hard to read or maybe they thought I was the one that they had to watch out for. I don't see that. I think I was very open and honest about my game. I spoke up for myself. I was probably the only girl in there that would have made a bold move. I wanted to walk in there, play my own game and not let anyone play it for me.

 

RW: The vote was 10-0. Were you shocked that it was unanimous?

Brittany: I was shocked. It kinda broke my heart a bit, looking over at Derrick because I did consider him one of my good friends in the house. You know, after thinking about it, the houseguests do tend to vote together. It keeps targets off their backs. It was definitely hard sitting next to Donny and having to campaign against him.

 

RW: One of the things you did this week was kick 2,400 goals in 24 hours. First, how are your feet feeling and second, did you ever think that maybe not completing the punishment might have worked in your favor?

Brittany: My feet are not as bad now. My big toe is disgusting, [laughs] it's gnarly! Every single kick was worth it.

I don't think it would have been a game move in my favor. I feel like they already determined which way they wanted the vote to go. I felt like I was going to be sent home anyway so I wanted to be sent home knowing that I fought every step of the way.

 

RW: Cody is a big flirt in the house. Early on, you said you're not kissing anyone's butt...do you think you not giving Cody the attention he gets from the other girls was the reason you were on the block?

Brittany: No, I know I said something that possibly made people think that's what I meant. Cody is used to getting attention from the other girls in the house besides me and Jocasta. The reason for it is that we're older and the other girls are younger.

 

I was thrown up on the block because Cody has his strategy and his alliance so it was better for his game. I don't doubt for a second that it didn't hurt him and break his heart because I do believe that we are good friends. I'm not hurt by it because it is a game. There will only be one winner. I think he felt that he had put a target on his back by saving me the previous week so he kinda felt like I was doubting him. So he wanted to put me up before I put him up.

 

RW: Cody really seems to like you, he wants you to be his finale date and even last night after eviction, he said he wants to take you on a sushi date. Are you going to take him up on his offers?

Brittany: Uhm... I mean, a girl has gotta eat. [laughs] If he's forking the bill, then I'll take him up on sushi.

 

RW: Let's talk Caleb. You told him he looked yummy after you picked him for Veto. Was he really looking yummy or was it just a game move?

Brittany: No. He was not looking yummy. I just feel bad for Caleb. So I just had to throw it out there and give a compliment because Amber was giving him nothing. I thought that maybe if I called him yummy he would fight that much harder to keep me. [laughs]

RW: It's very clear that Amber doesn't like Caleb. Is there anyone in the house telling Caleb that Amber just isn't that into him?

Brittany: I don't know if anyone is telling him that. A lot of the houseguest are very scared to speak up or play their game. I think people are telling Caleb what he wants to hear. I think that he's convinced. I think Frankie is telling him what he wants to hear. Poor guy. His boys are going to give him the hardest time, he's going to look back and realize that he gave up his whole game on a girl that won't even call him back.

 

RW: By now, I'm sure you are aware of the Team America alliance. Are you shocked that they are working together?

And this is where I get shocked... Brittany had no clue about Team America! Enjoy this small audio clip to hear her reaction(...and mine as I try to put together the whole Team America timeline in my head).

 

 

She finishes by saying that Donny owes her a lot of ice cream dates.

RW: The house seems to be solid in voting together, afraid to make big moves. Do you think that anyone is going to step up and make a big move this week?

Brittany: I think the game is definitely going to take a turn this week. I think people are starting to want Caleb out which is interesting because in the beginning he had so much power over the house.

 

RW: If you stayed in the house and won HOH, who would be your target?

Brittany: Caleb and Victoria.

It's not personal but Victoria... I feel like there are other people in the house that work so much harder. I feel like she is lucky to be there. She doesn't even take the game serious like I don't even know if she's even thinks of the game. Everything is kind of just fun for her. There's other people who are really taking it serious and have sacrificed so much. I just don't think she needs the money as much as others in there do.

 

RW: Based on what you've seen and what you know, who do you think is going to be the next person walking out the door?

Brittany: Walking out the door next week... I think Caleb has a high possibility of walking out the door or Victoria. But they may just decide to keep Victoria as a pawn in the house.

 

RW: Who do you think is in the best position to win the game?

Brittany: I would say Derrick or Cody but now after finding out about Team America... I think Derrick has the absolute best chance of winning. He has two people that are going to want to keep him around.

 

RW: Overall, how would you say your experience in the house was? Who were you the closest to in the house? Who were you no so close to?

Brittany: Overall, my experience was amazing! I have absolutely no regrets. It's something I'll cherish forever.

 

The person I was closest to... Donny. You know, there were people that I was close to in different ways...Derrick, Cody, Jocasta. Even though Derrick and Cody wanted me out, I know it was strategy and not personal. And Jocasta, she just brought me back to a place of comfort. We related to one another. And Donny, you can't help but fall in love with him!

 

And not so close to...Victoria, Zach and Amber.

 

RW: What's in the future for Brittany? Will we be able to see you on Twitter?

Brittany: For right now, I'm just going to go back home and enjoy what I've missed out with my family. Whatever the future holds for me, I'm excited to see what comes my direction. I'm clearly open for the challenges.

 

And as for Twitter, I have actually never really even gone on Twitter. So I don't know about the whole Twitter thing. I may just enjoy my other social media and stay off of Twitter.
