Brittany Christine Martinez (née Thompson) was a houseguest on Big Brother 16. Brittany was nominated Week 1 alongside Victoria Rafaeli for being the first two to be eliminated during her HoH competition. The two later won the Battle of the Block competition, becoming the first Houseguests to do so. She was nominated once again in Week 2 by Devin Shepherd because of his dislike of her gameplay. After Devin won the PoV, she was able to convince him to use the Veto on her. Brittany once again found herself on the block in Week 4 (again with Victoria), but when she did not win the BoB nor the PoV, she was evicted by a 10-0 vote, despite Caleb Reynolds campaigning to his alliance for her to stay. Brittany placed 13th.
