Nelly Shaw was a contestant on Survivor: Gambia - Anarchy.

Profile
Name: Nelly Shaw (30)

Current Residence: Goodyear, AZ

Occupation: Personal Trainer

Personal Claim to Fame: Probably having a 100% satisfaction rate from all my clients that I have trained over the year. The feeling you get when you make someone's self-esteem rocket and get them to be more healthy and happy, it's just so rewarding - I couldn't ask for a better job.

Inspiration in Life: Serena Williams is definitely up there with some of my bigger inspirations in life, she proves that women can be just as powerful, if not more powerful, than men. I bet if she took on the majority of the men's players in tennis she would give the majority a very good game of tennis, and possibly even win.

Hobbies: Working Out, Running Marathons, Walking My Dog, Reading.

Pet Peeves: Lazy people annoy the out of me, I hate it when people don't put a shift in and just expect everyone else to do things for them. Like, get up off yo' ass and help us out rather than sitting there like lady Cleopatra expecting everyone to willingly carry you through the game.

Three Words to Describe You: Athletic, Funny, Honest.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I definitely want to test myself out here, test by athleticism and mental strength - which is what I pride myself on! I also want to win that million! It's obviously a life-changing amount of money, and of course I ain't gonna turn my nose up at one million freaking dollars!

Why You Think You'll Survive SURVIVOR: Not only do I have the athletic ability to survive this game, I also have a huge amount of mental strength. Just like anybody I've been through tougher times than a few rainstorms, and I truly believe that I can handle everything Survivor has to throw at me.

Why You Think You'll be the Sole SURVIVOR: I am going to keep to my integrity and values out here. This game, I realise, can be about manipulating and backstabbing and sneakiness. However, do those people win this game? No. those people piss the jury off and the people who have made the most social bonds and been the most honest in their game play win. And that's just how I intend to play this game.
