Profile
Name (Age): Drew Sherman (22) Current Residence: Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania Occupation: Student Claim to Fame: Coming out to my parents. I grew up in a small town in Mississippi, and they were all very religious down there. Same with my parents, devout Mormons, so it was a massive struggle for me to come out as gay to them. For them to accept me completely was such an achievement for me. Inspiration in Life: My inspiration is definitely all the gay people before me. Luckily, I was born in a world were almost everyone accepts me for who I am. Unfortunately, the past hasn’t been kind to those like me, so for them to be proud for who they are in the 60s, 70s and 80s is so inspiring. Hobbies: Studying, studying, and oh look, more studying! Being a student isn’t easy, kids. Pet Peeves: People who make such a big deal about me being gay. Like, it’s not a personality trait, it’s just an aspect of me. There is more to me than who I have sex with. Also, people who are generally just stupid, they’re pretty annoying. SURVIVOR contestant you are most like: I hope to play much like Rafe Judkins from Guatemala. We both have got hidden strengths, and we’re both also really smart. He was one of the first gay men to really make an impact on the show, apart from Richard Hatch of course, so he always has a special place in my heart. Why do you think you will “survive” SURVIVOR?: I generally get along with most people, as long as they’re nice to me in return. I would also say I’m pretty smart, and I can survive pretty much anything. Why do you think you will be the Sole SURVIVOR?: I hope to just use my friendliness to my advantage. I think my social ties will be my saving grace and get me to the end, and win over the jury. Plus, I’m pretty smart, so I know what’s what.
