"Big Brother 12" kicks off in just over a week and in preparation, Zap2it is launching our series of interviews with the new contestants. This time it's Britney Haynes, a 22-year-old hotel sales manager from Arkansas.Britney tells Zap2it that she's always loved "Big Brother." "I've been a huge fan of the show for the longest time ... I've always really respected the game and now I get to be a part of it!"
Her favorite all-time players are Janelle, Will and Mike "Boogie" and her least favorites ... well, there are just too many to name them all. "Season 11, let's just put that out there. I didn't really like hardly anybody off of last season," says Britney. "There have been a ton of people I just didn't enjoy. I would say ... Natalie, she was probably one of my friggin' least favorites ever. Just her voice, it was awful!"
When asked what her strategy is going to be, Britney says she's going to feel it out first. "I'm going into the house with a strategy or the mentality of kind of letting things happen organically ... I don't wanna force anything, force any alliances or force any friendships."
She also thinks she might be underestimated for various reasons. "There's a very stereotypical image maybe that I portray and that's definitely not the whole story behind me. I definitely think I could be misinterpreted for someone who is young and stupid and blonde ... I think that I'll bring a lot more to the table than first meets the eye."
Keep checking back here for interviews with all the house guests and look out for footage of Zap2it's own Andrea Reiher playing a short version of "Big Brother" during media day. "Big Brother" premieres July 8 on CBS.

She actually seems quite smart. I think I will like her for more than being attractive (I usually like the hot chicks because I like my eye candy, and they are usually the ones with the showmances that I love to see happen).
She named Janelle a favorite and Natalie her least favorite.. I'm already predisposed to like her! I'll even let it slide that she also named that cretin Mike Boogie a favorite!
well she's got her homosexual male LOL though he would bore the hell out of me if I was her
This season already looks great. Even though it's hard to judge any year by the cast breakdown, this one looks promising. Last year was a good year for BB, I hope that CBS can keep that trend alive this year. Ahhh the guiltiness is getting me so excited for the next 80 days. Can't wait! http://www.thesmogger.com/2010/06/30/let-the-summer-of-secrets-begin/
Chris, i am exactly right there with you on that (Janelle, Natalie). and Yes, Mike Boogie really was a cretin, yuck.
ok...am i the only one who see an amazing lookalike here for Dolly Partin? not Dolys *****, but her talking, her smile is big like Dolly's and the voice. Dead-ringer for a young Dolly
