Danielle has sent an e-mail to amy crews.com. It is very interesting. The webmaster has verified that the e-mail was from Danielle and is still waiting for approval from amy to post her response.

Here's what it says.....
NOTE: This email has been verified and Danielle gave her permission to post it here. Amy has replied and if she gives her approval, her reply will be posted here as well. Thank you for letting us share this note Danielle!

This email was written in reply to a statement Amy made during one of her online chats with fans. You can read that transcript here

Subject: This your least favorite houseguest....Danielle


Of all the houseguests with the exception of Jason (of course), Amy was the one I wanted to stay in contact with.

I noticed that she stated that I yelled at her in the hotel lobby. True? Yes to some extent. You see I couldn't understand why Amy didn't give me her vote. What was I yelling? "I was your friend. I gave you Chiara and you couldn't give me your vote. I was your friend. I was your friend."

Why the anger? I felt her not voting for me was to simply....stick it to me. She did. I did forewarned her that evicted houseguests were going to be very surprised. My diary rooms were real. Unfortunately, the former houseguests did not see all of my diary room sessions. They only showed the negative side of drs. I always spoke highly of Amy in the diary rooms.

I told Amy a lot of things I said in the drs (good and bad). I did my flirtatious Amy impression in front of Amy.

You forget that I told Marcellas not to nominate Amy, because she was his friend. When Marcellas did nominate Amy; Ask Amy who was the houseguest that comforted her.

And no, Amy was not nice when she approached me in the hotel lobby. Now, did I say bad things about Amy in the house. Absolutely. When Amy drank I hated the way she acted. There are times when friends do things that annoy you. Should I've kept my mouth shut? YES! Not for the game, but in respect for Amy's feelings.

What you guys didn't know, is that the shrink saw Lisa and I before the finale. You know what my problem was....I kept asking her did I hurt Amy? That is all that mattered. The votes were done and I already knew that I lost, but at that point I was concerned about Amy.

Unlike some the other houseguests my drs were real. Amy probably thought our "Oprah" moments were fake. Its sad, but in the beginning I did not particularly care for Amy. But as I took the time to know her I absolutely loved her. Amy is a wonderful person. If I hurt her in any way, I must say I truly sorry. I wish her the best in life. Regardless what you Amy fans think about me, all I know that your adoration for the true Southern Belle is completely deserved. I hope you're able to send this email to Amy.

That's it. That's all,
Danielle (aka your least favorite houseguest)

I can't wait to read Amy's reply.

P.S. I am an Amy fan!

I like both of them and I think Danielle wrote a pretty darn nice letter all things considered.

A BIG step in the right direction, for sure. I still don't think Dani has any idea what internet viewers saw and heard, or what constitutes "owing" a vote or how her "Oprah moments" came off or how someone, even if warned, might still feel quite hurt .. BUT.. it really is between her and Amy on the personal level.

The important thing is that Amy answered and maybe they can talk it out. If Amy chooses to share her answer, that will be interesting as well.

I've wondered about Lisa and Eric.. I know Marcellas was to have lunch with them before Eric went back to work in Connecticut; maybe we'll hear something on his site.

I'm glad Chiara cleared up that stuff about Boogie; I know Amy mentioned that they were just friends, but better for Chiara to speak up. I may not be a fan of Chiara but she deserves better than Boogie. And better than that silly article too.

I agree, Ryn, it was a rather nice email.

I just have one wish, and that is that Danielle would take a step back and look at her behavior OUTSIDE of the DR. All those times when Amy would leave the room and Danielle would immediately start talking about her or when she asked Amy about flashing the cameraman, Amy denied it, then Danielle later said to Lisa that she didn't believe Amy. That type of behavior is just hurtful, but she doens't seem to see it that way. Or maybe she does and just didn't mention it in this email. I really hope she uses this opportunity to think about her interactions with others and how she might be hurting others in her life without realizing it.

It's interesting that Danielle chose this rather public forum as a way to try to get in touch with Amy. I'm not saying that she had any ulterior motives (though I'm cynical enough that I could come up with some), just that it's interesting.

My thoughts on this is that Danielle sees that Amy has a tremendous fan following. She has by now seen the tapes or whatever and realizes just what she has done and what everyone thinks about it. It's nice that she apologized to Amy because she surely needed to. Now, I believe Amy will accept the apology but I don't see them being friends.

I'm also with SEAMONKEY, "I still don't think Dani has any idea what internet viewers saw and heard". And ONLYHUMAN, "Wish Danielle would take a step back and look at her behavior OUTSIDE of the DR". For some reason she thinks it's only her DR's that did her in. That amazes me.

Her signing off with "That's it. That's All." isn't going over too well with me. That's something that *I* say when I am telling my daughter for the UMPTEENTH time that NO, she most definately can NOT wear make-up until she is a least 14!

It's a way to end the conversation (not that it words with my daughter though, lol) and let it be known that *that* is the last word on the subject. For me anyway. Who knows, maybe she is just used to finishing off apologies in that way. I hope they *are* able to iron things out, but if I were in Amy's shoes, that sign-off would just bug the ever-lovin' crap outta me, lol.

I guess the e-mail was for OUR benefit: "This your least favorite houseguest....Danielle".

I wonder why she didn't send it to Amy and personally apologize?

I still feel it was the REAL Danielle that we saw for 3 months and nothing will really change with her. As I stated above...Amy will prolly accept the apology but I can't see them being friends. Danielle saw on those tapes (or whatever) that Amy NEVER said a bad thing about her and saw just how she herself came across as far as talking about AMY!

Sure, she mocked Amy in front of her, but how about the numerous other times she mocked her behind her back!! Does that make it ok? NO Does that justify it? NO

"That's it. That's All" in my Opinon too!! LOL

Come on folks. The lady apologizes to Amy and now we want to "bash" the apology?
ITA with Ryn. It was a nice and appropriate move on Danielle's part.
I look forward to seeing Amy's response.

"When Amy drank I hated the way she acted. There are times when friends do things that annoy you. Should I've kept my mouth shut? YES! Not for the game, but in respect for Amy's feelings"

Who is she kidding? I would like her to tell me one thing that amy did under the influence that even comes close to her writhing on the bed drunk as a skunk. Its pretty nervy for her to be casting stones about Amy's drinking when she was the one screaming for libations all the time and getting drunk whenever there was liquor to be had.

What was wrong with Amy sticking it to her? It was just business. How is it ok for Dani to plot and tell people who to vote out of the house and it isnt ok for the same players to say you don't get my vote. Danielle was not a friend to anyone in that house not even Jason. She was out for herself and that is it. Nothing bad about that, it was just a game. She was in it for the money and I never went along with all that I love you stuff and the so called great friendships formed between these strangers.

Problem is Danielle has sour grapes. She didnt have the smarts to think beyond getting someone evicted. It was her ego and need to brag in the diary rooms that lost her the game. It wasnt Amy's one vote.

I agree Maris....she lined up votes many times for HG on the block IN the house....why could they (Evicted HG) not do it OUTSIDE the house? (which in my opinion they all voted the way they wanted no matter what anyone said)

It's just business! LOL Very well said!

you can tell danielle still doesnt know how much we saw., even up until the last day. only people who watched live feeds last year would really know what was being seen.

"What you guys didn't know, is that the shrink saw Lisa and I before the finale."

wrong. we knew, we know everything, because essentially WE, not CBS, are Big Brother.
im over this by now but my problem is danielle has a selective memory. she only brings up a few instances of her being mean. when in reality we had to sit and listen to it every single day.

You know what this is all just sad in my opinion. If Amy can forgive Marc but not Dani then something is very wrong with Amy and I would not want her as friend if I were Dani. Oh well thats life huh? I wish that best person won this game, here it is weeks later and I'm still disappointed with the game. :(

btw, I thought D should win.

Missy2...NO ONE said Amy hasn't forgiven Dani!!! Willow has yet to post Amy's reply at Amy's website!

In my opinion, she will forgive her and accept her apology with the CLASS she has always shown.

The best person did win the game! (as stated by the evicted HG's vote) lol

A couple of people have commented that she does not know what the net viewers saw - but we did NOT see everything either.

Like the HGs we only saw the portion of the DR sessions that CBS showed, we did NOT see all the other interactions either, there were many times when danielle and amy were NOT on camera because the cameras were pointing elsewhere.

I, like others, can't figgure out why some people can't let it go and seem to want to keep debating this like it matters anymore.

And yes, its just my opinion, but damnit, I have to keep reading this stuff because people keep getting in fights over it. (pardon the minor moderator rant). I am not mad, just a lil frustrated with how this year some people can't seem to let it go.

Just a side note: Dani sent a brief follow-up e-mail to the Dani Reyes fan site and she signed off "That's it. That's all." The phrase seems to be her "handle."

Hmmm... I thought this is what this site was about.... People posting their opinions. Of course if someone posts something that is of interest to someone, they are going to post their views and opinions.

Ryn, I understand your frustration on having to read everyones post, but, if you don't want us to post about what is still going on about the Big Brother HG then maybe you should close the Big Brother General Discussion area. LOL

I don't mean that in a bad way by any means. It's just a thought, but then again the BB discussion would prolly arrive in the plain General Discussion anyway LOL.

I guess the reason we can't let it go is because there is something new happening every day STILL about Big Brother and we still all have opinions.

As in the days the HG were in the house, everyone is still going to have different opinions on what goes on outside and after the show. They will be different. We just maybe need to think about how we type our opinions as to not make anyone mad???

Oh well, that's just my 2 cents and I do appreciate all that the moderators do on here to keep this Site going in a peaceful manner.

To people wondering why Danielle did this so publicly - I would think it's because Amy announced publicly, in the chat that Danielle yelled at her in the lobby when she (Amy) was just trying to be nice.
A public statement like that deserves a public response.

I think Amy will graciously accept Danielle' apology, and that will be that. I think the reason that Amy and Marcellas are friends and I doubt that Amy and Danielle will be friends is that Marcellas was a friend to Amy INSIDE the house. I never thought that Danielle was a "true" friend to Amy. I think that Danielle will never realize the true reason(s) she lost the game. Granted we did not see all the DR sessions, but many of those sessions are intended as "let's talk about it sessions" are are not intended to be aired. In fact, they were intended to be the one area in which the players didn't have to always be playing the game. I still think that Danielle is in serious denial, and I wholeheartedly disagree with her statements that she is loving and compassionate person. I don't like the hypocritical actions and talk -- why is it OK for her to fix a vote but it's not OK for anyone else?

The best player (and person, IMNSHO) won the game. "Yelling" at someone who did not vote for her just reinforces, in my mind, that the right person one.

Costacat I would disagree that Marcellas was a true friend to Amy inside the house. Kinda reminds me of "With friends like these who needs enemies." I do think that he is fond of her though.
I think that the fact that Amy can forgive him says a lot about her. The fact that Amy can forgive Chiara who called her "that f'ing bi5ch" and said she wanted to rip out her vocal chords says a lot about her too.
