Alli Sims aSims120108_05_X17.jpgWhile Brit's family was in NYC to support her amazing return to the stage, one former member of her entourage was left behind in LA: "cousin"/assistant Alli Sims.

Although Alli was a constant companion during the "dark days", we get the impression that she really cared about her cuz, and she sort of seems sad here (leaving Bardot) without her!

Or maybe she's just sad because her own singing career never seemed to get off the ground!
