Name: Charla Fairbanks (54)

Current Residence: New York, New York

Occupation: Modeling Agent

'''Claim to Fame: My success in the modeling industry! When I graduated high school, I would take every free job I could get, I would do makeup, photography, anything, and not even make a single dollar from it. Now, I’m one of the most successful people in the modeling industry, and, let’s just say, I would not be caught dead doing free work.'''

Hobbies: Reading fashion magazines, browsing Instagram, and watching old Survivor seasons

'''Pet Peeves: A lot of things bother me, but my biggest pet peeve is people who look like Kylie or Kim K who come into my office applying for modeling jobs. I hear them out, of course. I’m no Simon Cowell or Gordon Ramsay, but I can’t help but to roll my eyes after Ms.Plastic leaves. I can’t stress it enough, I need people who at least have a little uniqueness to them. Just because you’ve achieved tiny “success” on Instagram doesn’t mean you’re a model! (Oh, but don’t take that the wrong way, I do love KUWTK.)'''

'''If You Could Have Three Things on the Island, What Would They Be and Why: My Husband because he keeps me sane, one full outfit so and I can at least change my clothes every day, and my makeup kit so I don’t ruin my career on national television by looking like a mess *laughs*. '''

'''SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I like to think of myself as Tina: an older woman who played an all-around amazing game. However, I’ve been told by my friends that Noura from Island of the Idols is my identical twin in terms of personality, so I’m praying to Vishnu that I’m not going to be seen like her. '''

'''Reason for Being on Survivor: I first started watching Survivor when it first blew up, and I fell in love with the show, mostly because of Rich. Since then, I’ve seen every single season every Wednesday night, I’ve never missed an episode. I know I’m not the typical winner, but it would mean everything to mean if I could beat the odds and win this d**n show! '''

'''Why you will “Survive” Survivor: As a superfan, I know I’ve got what it takes to mentally endure the challenges of living on an island. In fact, ever since Palau, I’ve challenged myself to go on a “Survivor Diet” for one week after the show is done, and I’ve done that each season. Let me tell you, if I can survive the f*****g Survivor Diet I bet I can survive anything. '''

'''Why you will be the Sole Survivor: I’m going to be the winner of Survivor because people want to see the underdog win. I know I’m probably going to have a rough start, being the outspoken older lady with huge glasses, but once it’s the merge no one in their right mind will see me as a threat, so I can quietly make alliances to secure my spot at the end, and charm the jury so much that they won’t have any other option but to award me a million dollars. '''

'''Strategic game: 7. Charla is a superfan of the show, so she isn’t just about to believe anything people tell her. She will do everything it takes to be in the majority even if it means constantly flipping. Being a flipper is why Charla’s score isn’t higher. '''

'''Social:3 As charming as she thinks she is, a lot of people find her personality very strange and odd. Charla is anything but introverted and is very outspoken, not in a good way. The only postive is that, assuming they can stand her, Charla is good at making friends. '''

'''Physical 3: Charla is not out of shape or anything, but she is 54. Sometimes her hip hurts, or if it’s not her hip it’s her back. The only reason she is not in terrible condition is that the show actually inspired her to lose weight and eat somewhat healthy, because she knows she wouldn’t be allowed on if the doctors thought she would have a hard time surviving. '''

'''What could cause your castaway to win? Being overlooked at not thought of as a threat while silently securing small alliances and strong social bonds with people. '''

'''What could cause your castaway to lose? Pre merge, physical ability could be an issue since Charla is not very beneficial to a tribe if they want to win challenges. Charla’s personality also takes some getting used to, if her tribe has to vote someone out in the first few days, it might be her. At the merge, being a flipper and being untrustworthy are reasons I could see Charla getting voted out for.'''

'''What kind of characters would your castaway align with? Charla relates to those who feel odd or left out, so those would be the kind of people she wants to align with, which brings a conflict of interest seeing as those aren’t usually the type of people in the majority. (so I guess everyone jkjk) She wants to align with underdogs but she knows she should align with the majority. '''

'''What kind of characters would your castaway avoid or be enemies with? Charla’s going to try not to have enemies, but if someone seems like they don’t like her, she isn’t going to like them. She also dislikes snobs and bullies with a passion(but she is going to try to be kind to them)'''

'''Small paragraph of backstory: Charla was born in London and emigrated to New York when she was five. Charla has always wanted to look good, but was bullied for how she looked at her all-girls boarding school. This severely affected her confidence and attitude, which in turn affected her relationship with her parents. She moved out the moment she was 18 and tried to model and got turned down, so instead she did free work as a makeup artist or photographer. Later, she figured out she had a talent choosing models, and worked her way up the ranks, becoming a top executive at her modeling firm. She met her husband 4 years ago and married him quickly. He was a Hindu, and Charla, never really having had connected with Catholicism decided to convert. She has no children or step-children. '''

'''Yes you can change whatever you want. '''
