I don't. I don't feel sorry that she has learned the truth about Lane, her knight in shining armor. And I don't feel sorry that Enzo and Lane rubber her nose in her defeat when they told her how she was just a tool for weeks.

She was told over and over again by so many of the HG's that she helped evict that she was being used and she refused to believe it, choosing to trust Lane to take care of her. Like so many women on BB, she let her feelings for Lane cloud her rational mind, thinking she would be protected by a strong (and obviously unscrupulous) man rather than realizing that lying is part of this game and she had to play strongly for herself.

She has been vicious and nasty about so many who tried to help her. Now she pays the price.

BB is a rough game. I don't think that Brit has had it any worse than many of the people who have played over the years.

Some people are saying she was betrayed by Lane but I'm not even sure that she was betrayed by Lane. He was saying in his private DR's that he planned to go to the end with her. He and Brit just didn't win the competitions at the end that were needed to make it happen.

Yes, I really did feel for her. I know it's just a game, and I know that what she has done was wrong, but the way Enzo really rubbed her face in it pulled at my heart strings and the sad thing was he was so self absorbed that he didn't even see why he was wrong. Even Haydon felt bad for her. I really wanted him to be the one to go this round, he is a hateful, hateful little man who eats like a pig.

Not a bit, Brit. In fact, each and every time I saw her trash someone else (completely UNgame-related), I actually hoped for the day when she'd be crap outta luck with her "friends" and get a whoppin' dose of karma.

I thought they were very kind to tell her at all. But it didn't seem to register with her for a bit- till Hayden apologized. I saw the lightbulb go on.

She lied right to people's faces over and over again, played this one against that one, threw everyone and their dog under the bus and called it "game".

Well, Brit... how's that "game" feelin'?

Oh, I feel sorry for everyone in this game at one time or another. Someone does not need to be perfect to earn my empathy when they are treated unthinkingly.

And yes, it is probably karma to some degree, she treated others badly as well. It may have given the illusion that she was tougher than she is.

Still, this is a harsh game. There's all kind of lying, pettiness, meanness and untrustworthiness and broken promises.

The fellas will get their comeuppance in the real world when they get out. It all just keeps going round and round.

I think it will be interesting to see how it plays out over the next few days. I don't think that the guys will be mean and isolate Britney like so many people who are due to be voted off are isolated. At least I hope not. Most teams who win are usually proud of their accomplishment so I guess Brit may have to tolerate some rehashing of the glory of the Brigade but hopefully they won't be mean like some other houseguests have been.

I feel a bit sorry for Britney but she hasn't been an angel herself on the show. What she is is a young healthy woman with her whole life ahead of her to enjoy. There are many infinitely worse things than this that people deal with every day. It's a TV show. Just keepin' it in perspective.

NO. I predicted this exact order weeks ago. Matt going, then Ragan, then Britney. I thought it would be poetic justice for Ragan and Britney to get to 3rd and 4th and lose.

But even putting aside any negative feelings I have toward her, she didn't play a smart game. She and Ragan both put gameplay aside for friendships and its why they both lost. She sat and agreed with everything Ragan told her last week about how they were both played and what they could do to stay in the game and she didn't do any of it. So she deserves to lose now.

As for feeling sorry for how she's being treated now. Well, lets just say,

What goes around, comes around.

Not one iota. She got what she deserved. She should have closed her mouth and quit her trash-talking and have for at least one time been a tad more observant. If she'd done that, she would not be in the situation she is now. As they say in BB, "You reap what you sow."

Yes and no. I don't like to see anyone hurt, but I think Brendon was treated worse and not just once. He endured their coldness for days.

I have the same amount of sympathy for Britney as she had for Rachel,Kristen,Kathy,Matt, Ragan, Brendon, little to none.

If I based my answer on her past actions, toward the other house guests, no. I do admire the way she's trying to shape her attitude (after a night's sleep), and convincing herself that she'll be fine.
I'd vote for her, as AC, as she's showing her true self, after a crushing defeat.

I don't like the way she has treated other HG's but that does not mean that i like to see her hurt. I guess I just don't believe that if someone is mean, you have to be just as mean to them. So yes, I do feel sorry for her.

Britney and the Brigade have been my favs all season long. I'm glad they opened up and told her about their alliance. She had her boo-hoo moment last night and by sometime today or tomorrow at the latest she will be fine and the four will have an enjoyable week together.

I did, until I turned on the feeds just now and was greeted by Bitter Brit ranting to herself about folks and being very insulting to them all.

Yes, I do.

Britt is a 22 year old woman living in a town of less than 700 people. The way she put her trust in the friendship she felt with Lane makes me feel sorry for her.

I hope this experience doesn't make her distrust friendships in the future.

Yeah Shenanagon. No surprises there. I'm just sorry she got all the pity votes because she certainly has no pity for anyone. But, she is pitiful. lol

No. Not sorry for her. She made it farther than she should have.

I agree with Glenn.

Also, when a barely 23 year old woman in a locked house of 3 men gets totally caught off guard late at night, by 3 men who over predict their popularity, and gloat in their shocking declaration and she has absolutely no where to go. I have said it in another thread and will say it again they did nothing short of verbal gang rape on her.

Britney is a major fan of the game who's watched the live feeds, and she knows that people are betrayed and backstabbed every single season. She had ample opportunities to make alliances that would have taken her further in the game. She was told more than once that the three guys were together, but she chose to put her trust in Lane (I don't know if anyone else saw him actually promise her anything - I saw her say things to him about final 2, where she assumed his silence was agreement).

Plus, sitting here watching her constantly bash people who have already left (even continuing this morning when she was alone in the backyard), annoys me, because there is no reason for it.

So no, I don't feel sorry for her.

No one attacked her last night, so I don't see how it could be construed as a 'gang rape." They may have been gloating, but they continually gave her props for how far she got also. And she could have gotten up and left at any time. In fact, when she did, they gave her space, recognizing that she needed some time to be alone and absorb it all.

Not at all,but mostly because shes not a good person-but then again she is young and will regret her behavior on BB,later on.

Nope not at all. This is a game. You should not look to others to help you to the end or to the finals. Reap what you sow(sp)
