She certainly didn’t go down without a fight. Lauren saved herself once on last night’s live eviction show but her luck ran out during the double eviction. Caught in a custody battle over Vince with Morgan, Lauren battled for her ally and her Big Brother game to the very last moment.

John Powell: As you told Vince, it was difficult being in an alliance with him as he made your game harder. Why didn’t you cut bait with him?

Lauren Domingue: I think I said this but I feel like I had a lot of investment in our sort of like alliance and relationship, too much to sort of just throw that away. He also was the one person that I laid out pretty much my entire game to. So, I wouldn’t want to cut that off at the risk of him. I don’t think he would blow up my game but that is kind of something and I know that at the end of the day Vince would have been a number for me in the long run. So, that wasn’t something that I wanted to cut off even though I do believe that he made my game harder.

John Powell: Do you agree with Kelly, who said Morgan controls Vince and how do you think she does so?

Lauren Domingue: I do have to say that I do agree with that just because I really thought that there wasn’t a world where Vince would put me up because I told him multiple times that I would have never done that on my HOH, that I would have kept him safe over anybody else because I was extremely loyal to that final two. So, the fact that he was sort of like willing to put my game on the line was not great but I guess Morgan really did have some compelling arguments. I’m not sure what those arguments were but I do think that she has a lot of influence over him.

John Powell: You stressed over many critical decisions in the house. Did you find it hard to not only deal with the stress of the game, but also the cutthroat nature of it?

Lauren Domingue: I’m an indecisive person by nature. Whenever you’re deciding people’s fate in the game, something they have put so much investment into, whenever you’re so isolated everything feels extremely heightened. Every decision feels like do or die for me personally. I definitely felt the effects of the pressure in the house. I know I was a bit indecisive…(laughs)

John Powell: You were part of several shifting alliances. Which alliance did you feel most loyal to, and how did the dynamics within that group influence your decisions?

Lauren Domingue: I think that this sort of depends on the different stages within the game. The first real alliance that I felt really committed to and loyal to was me, Zach, and Vince at the very beginning. Obviously, it didn’t work out because both Zach and Vince were on the block and me and Vince had final two. I felt like I did what I had to do with voting out Zach. I did feel that Vince had that loyalty to Morgan and I wasn’t sure if his loyalty to her would be over me. I wanted to make sure that I was insulated especially after Rylie and Katherine had left. I always really felt close to Ava and Kelley as well. We just sort of gravitated towards each other and that was a group that I also felt loyal to as well.

John Powell: Who do you hope follows you into the jury house and why? The mastermind says you must pick someone.

Lauren Domingue: Yeah, this is a hard one. I think if I had to choose I would probably choose Keanu just because I know he’s such a competitive threat. I do think that if he doesn’t go then there is a good chance that he wins his way to the end because he is such a great competitive threat.
