Survivor: Stephanie Speaks on Russell Alliance
Stephanie spoke to People about being the most recent castaway headed home from Redemption Island. Here’s what this pitbull had to say about her alliance with Russell, and her time on the island.
Did you know aligning with Russell would put you on the wrong side of the numbers?
I had no idea the sheer panic that his presence brought to the other tribe mates. I didn’t understand it. I mean, I know he had this reputation, but if we had kept winning we wouldn’t have had to worry about it. Then we get to the merge and you can get rid of him if you really can’t stand him.
So why align with such a threat?
I thought, “How can this person benefit me? No one likes him so I’ll get the votes.” That’s a positive to having him as an ally – he can get to the top but no one will vote for him.But why not try to get more people on your side?
We tried everything under the sun to align with everyone. We had David in the beginning – it was me, Russell, David, and Krista – and a couple hours later something went wrong with him and he backed out.You could have jumped ship when you knew Russell was going down.
I didn’t want to come off fake. I didn’t want to be like, “Everything’s fine.” My feelings were hurt. He was part of my alliance and now I have to try and be two-faced with these people and say, “I’m glad we got rid of Russell! Things are better around camp.” I just couldn’t do that. I thought maybe they would respect my loyalty.You got pretty emotional when you had to burn your buff.
It’s heartbreaking. You put your sweat, blood, tears into that thing. I’m just so sad because such a huge part of being on Survivor is our buff, and I felt so awful burning it. As much as I don’t like Zapatera and can’t stand purple, I was like, “That’s my buff! I love it!”You definitely made all your feelings known when leaving Redemption Island.
I didn’t want to say anything because I didn’t want to cry. But I couldn’t hold it back, and I was like, “Well, I’m already crying, let me say everything that’s on my mind.” I felt so much better after letting Rob know that [Zapatera] can’t be trusted. I don’t want them to succeed. When I take losses in real life, I feel like I’m a lot more graceful. But this isn’t real life – it’s a game.
Burning your buff is pretty bad; plus, I saw people retweeting that Jeff said that that is the ONLY buff you get (even after the show). Daaaang – that’s rough.
