From TV Guide’s interview with Wanda The Annoying Old Singer of Survivor fame;

TVG: Did your singing do you in?
Wanda: [Whispering] No. I know that they tried to portray that, but that is because they didn’t want it to come out that they stocked the show with young models. They did. Out of the 20 people that were originally cast, they cut seven and put pretty people from modeling agencies in instead, so that they would have the eye candy. We found that out while we were there [in Palau]. When we asked [each other], “What did you do for your audition tape?” some of the people would say, “Oh, well, I didn’t really do an audition tape.”

There’s a category CBS needs to add into the Survivor Fantasy game… “Lose 10 points if your pick is a plant.” I am curious if CBS will respond, or if they’ll just have a representative make an announcement that CBS can’t believe these unfounded allegations. Said rep will also likely use their index finger to make the internation “she’s crazy” motion, circling their ear… Every season is less and less real, with interviews and interactions that appear entirely staged; are island residents reading off queue cards?
