I think a lot of Britney's "mean girl" persona comes from the comments she made about her mom whom she adores. i.e. Mom taking many photos of people on their Europe/Italy trip.....strangers, simply so they could laugh at how ugly,weird or strange they were.Also talking about getting in trouble with mom if she ever got less than an A in school, or if her makeup, clothes, etc weren't always perfect or if she gained any weight. She has a good bit of insecurity, self-hate underneath her perky demeanor . So it makes sense that she projects that out to others and rips on any perceived flaws she sees in them. She's not a happy camper. Oh and BTW I never was a Britney fan. I found her hard to stomach much like Ragan with all the meanness.

I thought the article was pretty accurate as far as what was said in the house. One thing I didn't like was that the author was calling out BB websites for ignoring the trash talking.

I sort of resent that, since here at TVCH it was discussed many, many times. I wonder what websites she was talking about? I don't go to any others, but I'm sure that SS or Jokers must have had discussions just like we did.

There is another interesting article about 'Serial Bullying' on that same site that I found fascinating, in case anyone wants to check it out:

It's pretty telling that Britney seems to be able to let bygones be bygones with Lane and Hayden in particular (after a brief meltdown) when they are most responsible for snuffing out her dream (besides herself) and yet she continues to bash evicted houseguests along with her pals that are showing her the door but promised her f3.

I honestly think Britney is one of those girls who just can't get along well with a whole lot of other girls. It starts around the 3-4th grade and escalates. I've seen it for years since I have 3 girls myself. Thing is, by 23, it ought to be OVER and certainly ought to be quashed to play a game involving alliance, strategy, and social skills that could get someone 1/2 a million bucks.

I cannot wait for her to leave.

No, I don't feel one bit sorry for Brit.

She was chosen to play a game that many would love to play. She had free room and board all summer, plus the chance to win $500,000. She did win $10,000. She also had the opportunity to make new friends. Every day, she was able to choose the way she wanted to be portrayed to the HGs and to all the hamster watchers in the world. Her game play and personal actions were all her own choices.

How many times does she need to say how certain she is that B/R are already broken up and how she cannot fathom someone being so "in love" after knowing someone for a couple months.

Hello? You're engaged to a guy you didn't know last Halloween.

Can she not hear herself?

That article bothers me. I want to know why the author has decided that now during Big Brother 12 that she can no longer tolerate the trash talking and the back biting that goes on in the Big Brother house.
Her objection to the way Britney and Ragan spoke about Rachel and Brendon is ridiculous. This is not the first season that horrid things have been uttered about certain house guests by other house guests. In fact this kind of thing has been going on for years.
I know that Ragan and Brit said some bad things but were they any worse than what Jerry(BB10) said about Keesha(BB10) or what Eric(BB8) said about Amber(BB8). Let us not forget the entire Friendship alliance from BB6 and the awful things they said about Janelle.
The article also criticized BB sites that "condoned" such behavior. Um, Hello, we don't condone it,in fact we have been blasting these people for years while the press and the bloggers ignored or even thought it was cute.
Really how many people think Evel Dick was hilarious when he walked throught the house banging on pots and pans totally running Amber into the ground.
Why is it all of the sudden the press is so interested in the Big Brother house? It's kind of sad that Ragan and Britney are going to be vilified for doing something that is pretty standard in the Big Brother House.

I forgive anything these HG's. do In the house....goodness...they are playing a game, for Money.....
As for as Ragan being a Gay 'role model'...what would that be????....there are tons of gay people...strieght people....there really is no standard....we are all differant....gay, strieght....who cares...
Ragan has bothered me with some of his actions in the house...but not because he is 'gay'...just because he is a human...
Brittany has said some stuff.....but lets check our selves....Really'.....have we all been little 'angel's '...... I think not....she is young and they are locked in a little 'tiny' world..... Id hate to think I was 'camera'ed 24/7... Id prob screw up in all your eyes...cause im just a person.....
This is the most boring season 'ever for me'...but I still find it hard to demonize people for the short stay that they have in the house......its a experiment....
Im just happy that someone is willing to do the job, so I can sit here and watch....

I'm sure they'll all justify all their behavior because it's just soooooooooooooooooo hard being in the BB house for soooooooooooooooo long.

Sure, it would change you in some ways but there have been a far greater number of hgs that have not sunk to the levels of these 2 or others so to put it bluntly...

I just ain't buyin' that.

You've got to have it in you to say such vile crap like they have and it didn't start because they lost their marbles in the house. And I reserve the right to judge anyone who chooses to become a hamster. They know what they signed up for and it pays pretty well. Not to mention it isn't rocket science.

I think that after awhile! They forget about the 24/7 camera's and there TRUE self comes out! How they are now acting and Talking is not just show for the camera. it is how they would act in life! IMOP! so for some in this season it's called KARMA when they get out and go on line to see how Liked they were!

Look how many of these guys are true BB fans. Look how much Brit and Ragan know about the feeds, the blogs, the discussion boards, the interviews, etc. Do you really think they didn't see reactions like these to others' vile comments?

Nah, no excuses. They are what they are. Hopefully they become better human beings but we'll never know.

I think Brit is still very angry,and only let go of the melt down in order to play for America's choice $$, more air time and showing the guys what a great gal she is so they might feel compelled to share the wealth with her if they win, she told Lane he better at least give her a thousand dollars (gift). She is very calculating (she is NOT stroking their egos for nothing.) She is also enjoying playing head games with them over what she thinks about who will win, what the challenges will be etc. Just my opinion :-)

As far as feeling sorry for Brit, that would be a HUGE NO.

Britney was feeling so sorry for herself and crying. Kept saying how she is all by herself in the house and doesn't have any friends. Well Brit how do you think Brendon felt? The whole house was against him and ridiculing him every chance they got? I remember you and Regan laughing the most and just digging your knife into him every chance you got? How does it feel now? Karma baby!

I only felt sorry for Brintey for the way Enzo was constantly rubbing it in her face that she had been tricked by the one person that she had trusted in the game. She thought that Lane was her friend and Enzo was very cruel in the way he told her about the Brigade because you could tell he wanted tears. She did not deserve that.

The fact that Ragan and Britney were playing really poor games is their own fault. I'm sure that like all former HG's they will laugh off all the criticisms they recieve about their game play. Like all the former trash talkers of seasons pasts they will also deny all the hateful things they have said.
Big Brother contestants are all the same.They all think that the only thing the viewers see are the TV shows.

After she said that Lane's repulsive activities with women and his partners-in-infamy sounded like fun, I have zero sympathy for Britney.

She and Lane should run off to Vegas and get married so they won't spread their vitriole to two other people.

Just heard that Brit. is gone and we will no longer have to see her on the feeds, when they
are back. MY husband thinks I'm a little crazy
because of my clapping in front of my PC. I agree
with Bubbles..I feel sorry for Nick. He seems like a nice guy. What a mother-in-law he will
have!

Does anyone think maybe Brit just said they sounded like fun so that she could stay in the house? (I don't have the feeds. Maybe she was secretly repulsed.)

Nah, Happymom. It flew right over her head. Britney is one of those people that will make nicey nice with people she likes, forgive them for all their misdeeds, bite her own tongue rather than disagree with them, and flame their ego till it sets the world on fire.

People she doesn't like? Look out. And the more her new pals agree with her, the more she LOVES them.

I'm so sick of this season's "I love everyone" that I may have to take a page from Laj's book and pee down my leg and feel the warmth.
