Danielle Hendricks is the runner-up of Big Brother 3 (US). She later competed on Big Brother 7 (US) and Big Brother: Reindeer Games.
On Big Brother 3 (US), Danielle started off on the outs of the game not being a part of the majority Cartel alliance. Due to Danielle’s game-long alliance and friendship with Jason Guy and her strategic skills. Danielle was able to take control of the game alongside Jason. After her ally Lisa Donahue won the final Head of Household competition, she brought Danielle with her to the final 2. On Finale Night, Danielle lost the jury vote to Lisa as many of the jurors felt bitter about her diary rooms. Danielle was crowned the runner-up, only receiving a jury vote from her friend and ally Jason to win.
On Big Brother 7 (US), Danielle returned for All-Stars and was immediately targeted for being a strong strategic player. Throughout the season, she often campaigned to get out the Sovereign Six alliance. She was also a member of The Legion of Doom alliance that consisted of herself, James Rhine, Mike Malin, and Will Kirby, with the goal of evicting Janelle Pierzina. When her closest ally James was evicted in Week 7, the Legion of Doom was no more as Danielle vowed to go after Chilltown for their betrayal. When her ally Erika Landin won the Head of Household competition in Week 8, it seemed like Danielle was safe. Unfortunately for her, after Erika's target Janelle won the PoV, Mike and Will convinced Erika that Danielle was a major threat, which resulted in her being evicted by a unanimous 3-0 vote during the first half of the Double Eviction, placing 6th and becoming the fourth member of the jury.
Because of her social game and strong strategic abilities, she is often regarded as one of the greatest houseguests in Big Brother history and is named "Greatest Player to Never Win" by fans and many previous players, including Will Kirby.

- After the Big Brother 11 finale, Danielle, James Rhine and Kaysar Ridha went into the now-empty house and filmed a special "secret eviction" video for social media, where James, in the role of HOH, cast the tiebreaking vote to evict Kaysar for a fourth time while he was next to Danielle on the block.[2]
- Danielle attended the premiere of Big Brother 20.[3][4]

- The first episode aired on August 3, 2020 on YouTube, beginning coverage of Big Brother 22.
- Danielle was called to compete on Big Brother 22, but ultimately declined the offer due to not wanting to leave her job for three months during the unstable economy of the pandemic; she also felt that the payout from the season wasn't enough to substitute. She has since expressed her desire to compete on Survivor instead. She was replaced by Nicole Anthony.
- Danielle was interviewed for the Big Brother: 25th Anniversary Celebration ahead of Big Brother 25.
- Danielle, Britney Haynes and Frankie Grande appeared in the Big Brother 25 premiere, "breaking into" the new house in an attempt to change their fate from prior seasons, but when it backfired they accidentally unleashed the twist of the season onto the new houseguests.
