When the "Big Brother Jury" meets during on Wednesday’s season finale of “Big Brother” on CBS, keep your eye on Britney Haynes.
Haynes, a native of Arkansas who lives in Owasso, will be one of seven jury members deciding who will win this season of the CBS reality show and the $500,000 grand prize.
The reality show follows a group of people living together in a house outfitted with more than 52 cameras and 95 microphones recording their every move, 24 hours a day. Each week, the houseguests compete in challenges and vote someone out of the house. At the end, the last remaining houseguest will receive the grand prize.
The pharmaceutical sales representative, who was voted "America's Favorite Player" during season 12 of "Big Brother," returned to the show this season to play coach to the houseguests. But, at the end of third week of the series, the coaches were allowed to vote to become a full-fledged houseguest and she was one of three who voted "yes."
During the show, she became a member of the Silent Six alliance which included competitors Dan, Danielle, Shane, Mike and Frank. But she was evicted by her housemates on Aug. 30.
As of this week, only Dan and Danielle from the pack are still standing along with the third finalist Ian.
After season 12, Haynes moved to New York. Last March, she married her high school sweetheart Nathan "Ryan" Godwin in Fayetteville, Ark. The couple moved to Owasso, she later tweeted. Her husband works for American Electric Power, according to swtimes.com.
In an interview earlier this month, Haynes told people.com that competing with her "best friend in the house" Danielle was "bad."
"Being up against Danielle was bad in two ways," Haynes told the website. "We were good friends, so knowing one of us was leaving was really sad. Also, it wasn't the first time Danielle was used as a pawn and she is a really difficult person to make your case against."
Playing the game a second time also means Haynes could be voted "Favorite Player" again and win another $25,000. But, if not, she will put her time on the show behind her.
"I really try not to have regrets but I can see poor decisions when I’ve made them and I feel I made many," she told the website. "Chief among them was evicting Janelle over Frank."
