ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: That was the most emotional exit we have seen all season.
What was going through your mind there as your time ended in the house?

AMERICA LOPEZ:The last couple of weeks have been the hardest here in the house.
I really haven’t been super emotional like that all season.
I’m obviously a huge fan of the show.

And I could just see it in his eyes.
It was so hard.
It just all came up all these feelings that I had been holding in.
There’s constant pressure, constant tension that you’re under in this house.
You’re under surveillance all the time, and you really don’t realize how overwhelming it all is.
It was tough and it sucks so badly.
I’ve been like, “Oh, it sucks here without Cory.
I hate this house!”
But at the same time, I did not want to leave.
I wanted to keep playing.
I wasn’t ready to have that end.
Had you stayed, whom did you want to go to the end with?
I wanted to go to the end with Bowie Jane.
I miss Bowie Jane!
But she’s totally oblivious of anything going on around her, right?
She literally has to be told what to do, how to vote, what is going on.
Obviously, I thought I had the best chance of winning against her.
I wasn’t going to detach her from them.
How disappointed and frustrated were you by your competition performances this season?
These competitions were so hard.
Oh my God, so much tougher than they look.
Here I am, zero competition wins.
I’m so mad!
I’m like, “Let me in and let me do Pressure Cooker again!
I can do it.
I can beat Cam.
I know it.”
So the one thing I really regret is making that deal.
I think that was a mistake this late in the game.
I should have known better.
I haven’t been working with Blue all season.
What made me think that I could trust her now?
What kind of future are you hoping for with Cory beyond the jury house?
I know Cory and I will continue our relationship.
I’m going to play them.
I don’t care about boys.
I’m not here for a relationship.
But anything beyond that, anything serious?
Here I am with a whole-ass boyfriend at the end of it.
I am so excited to see what happens after this.
I am going to visit his family for the holidays.
He’s going to come visit mine.
I’m so excited to spend time in the jury house with him.
It’s so stressful in the BB house.
This will be a time for us to relax, treat it like a little vacation.
I think it’s going to be great.
