 is a contestant from Survivor: Japan - Izu Islands.

Profile
Name: Journalist (47)

Personal Claim to Fame: Writing for E! Like sure, is it peak journalism? Hell NO! But I live for tabloids and drama, and it was like, a firework for my career, bursting into bright opportunities as the public watches, in awe of my vocabulary and slang!

Hobbies: Spilling tea, scarf-shopping, baseball. Yeah, baseball. I didn't stutter.

Pet Peeves: When people use 'YAS GAGA'. Open your damn flip phone and look at the year we're in.

3 Words to Describe You: Energetic, Bold, Constellation

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: Because I know I can win. And I have experience playing from the bottom.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: I am going to have a phenomenal social game, and I think y'all will be surprised with how well I'll do in the challenges. My homophobic father forced me into baseball as a way of keeping me straight. I've got stamina, baby.
