Tessa Lissen

 is a contestant in Survivor: French Polynesia.

Profile
Name (Age): Tessa Lissen (24)

Current Residence: Los Angeles, CA

Occupation: Unemployed/Aspiring Actress

Personal Claim to Fame: I am a great actress. I was once able to trick people to come to a funeral for my dead dog... And I don't even own any type of pet!

Inspiration in Life: I would have to say myself, and I'm not saying that to sound stuck-up or anything. I'm saying that because I'm proud of my ability to use my acting skills to my advantage.

Hobbies: Lying (I prefer to call it "acting without a script"), watching TV, house-hunting (in hopes of getting out of my parents' place, where I currently reside).

Pet Peeves: People who think I'm lazy 'cause I don't have a "real job", people who sit there and act like liars are the worst thing in the world, slow thinkers.

3 Words to Describe You: Sassy, intense, cunning

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: I'm probably Parvati, in terms of the way she played the game, Courtney, in terms of her verbally abusive confessionals, and Tony, in terms of his aggressive and devious gameplay.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: Well, let's see. Money= house, money= better chance at a career. In short: Money= Everything I need at this point in time.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: My skills with manipulation/lying will help me.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: Lately, it's the really aggressive strategists who do well. I'm going to be one of those people who will do anything for a million bucks.
