What main qualities will you look for in an alliance partner?
I’m going to look for somebody who is No. 1 authentic. I want somebody who’s real, who I can really trust, who I can build a strong bond with and really count on. But, here’s the thing, I also want them to be a bigger target than I am. I never want to befriend somebody where I’ll be the bigger target than them. That way, when people have a chance to separate this duo, they are going to vote them out before me.
Would you ever throw a competition? Why or why not?
I will 1000 percent be throwing competitions. I am a dancer and growing up as a dancer, I’m really physically fit. I’m ready to compete in these endurance competitions. I know I’m going to be great. But I do not want to show up as a threat. I don’t want people to know how great I am at these competitions until halfway through. So for the first half of the season, I plan to throw a bunch of the competitions. Not to lay low, I still want to be my crazy, fun, authentic self, but I want to not play so hard in the beginning.
If you had the choice to take your No. 1 ally to the final two (knowing it would be a close vote), or someone you’re not close with (but can likely beat), which do you choose and why?
This is a really tough question. I think knowing myself, if I had to choose, I would choose somebody where it would be a close vote. The reason why is because I think that gains the respect of the jury. I think jury management is something so many players forget about. I think I can talk my way out of or into anything I want to. But I think about Paul and he was one of the best players in history. But he didn’t have great jury management. I think it would go a long way bringing somebody who everyone respects, who everyone loves. That would show the jury what kind of person I am, that I deserve the $500,000 over them anyway.
