Next week, on February the 26th, the 28th
season of survivor Cagayan: Brawn vs.
Brains vs. Beauty is finally kicking off. After a ‘meticulous’ and closer
inspection of respectively the Brawn and
Brains tribe, we still have one more tribe to go: the Beauty tribe. So let’s not waste anymore time and get speculating!
Every season we’re presented with contestants who are
not there to be big power players or tactical master minds but are just there
as eye candy. This season the people of CBS did us the courtesy of presenting
us an entire tribe of six people brimming with sexappeal (depending on your
personal flavor offcourse). Offcourse that doesn’t mean each member
of the Beauty tribe is doomed to
lose. Every once and a while, we see a player with good looks taking the one
million dollars and title of sole survivor. Think about the likes of Fabio (Nicaragua) or Natalie White (Samoa). The question offcourse is if we
will see a similar player rise up amongst the next six players.
First up is Alexis, a 21-year old student
from Chicago. At first glance she’ your typical survivor eye candy being young,
kinda bubbly and beautiful. After listening to her biovid she seems smarter
then your run-of-the-mill eye candy. She seems to be betting on an alliance
with the girls which isn’t a bad idea. Despite that I still don’t see her
playing a big part this season. If she does get into a majority alliance, she
will be playing under the radar hoping for the leader of her alliance to take
her to the final 3.
Jefra Bland is next, a 23-year old pageant
girl from Kentucky. Each season it’s easy to spot what kind off profile each of
the ‘eye candy girls’ are. Alexis is the college girl, Morgan whom we’ll take a
look at a bit further, is the model/babe and Jefra is the farm girl with farm
hat and everything. Now I’m sure Jefra is a perfectly lovely girl who’s fun to
be around but when it comes to survivor she’s basically cannon fodder. Unless
she can ride the coattail of some powerplayer and keep quiet, smile and live up
to her last name, she ‘s an early boot
for me..jpg)
Number three is Brice, a 27-year old social
worker/shoe salesman from Philadelphia. I know beauty is a subjective feature
but well…let’s just say Brice looks ‘Unique’. Brice is the kinda personality
that you either love or hate, there’s no middle ground but I think most people
will rather dislike Brice. Luckily for him, he’s on a Beauty tribe. If he were on a normal tribe I would say Brice is
doomed to be an early boot, if not the first boot. But with this Beauty tribe he might have a chance to
get in good with the girls. Despite that I’m guessing Brice will not last long
in this game. 
Next up is boobs… I mean Morgan. Morgan is a 21-year
old student from California and is the postergirl for an eye candy player,
albeit a very nice poster. She might as well have a big sign with her shouting
out ‘Help me, I have no clue what i’m getting into!’ She has no clear strategy,
no life experience and she’s to her own words ‘outspoken’. This not only spells
but screams early boot for me. Her only upside is that she realizes she’s in this
predicament. Sadly, unless she can get into a majority alliance and stay quiet
as a mouse, she’s out of this game faster then you can say ‘boobalicious’.
Last but one is LJ, a 34 year old horse
trainer from Boston. In this rather sad (in survivor terms) bunch of players,
LJ is the only one that give a glimmer of hope for his tribe. He’s laidback,
cool (how could you not be when you’re name is LJ) and a clear leader. He seems
to have this natural charm over him that can unite a group of people. He also seems to be intelligent
enough for this game. The only chance fort his tribe not tob e doomed is LJ.
Under his leadership this group of misfits might have a chance.
Last is Jeremiah, a 34 year old model from
North Carolina. Jeremiah seems like most of his tribe very bland. There’s just not
much in this player to tell me he’s gonna do good in this game. If you listen
to him, his only strategy is using his ‘southern charm’. That will only take
you that far until you’re gone. I don’t think he’ll be the first one gone as
he’s an asset in challenges but I don’t see a merge in his future.
The Beauty tribe
seems to be the most boring tribe compared to the other two. This tribe has
only one hope and his name is LJ Mckanas. Not my prediction but my hope is that
LJ takes this tribe by the leash and leads it to it’s destination like it was
one of his horses. In that situation I see Brice as the odd one out and the
first boot fort his tribe.
That’s it for the three tribes. Next Wednesday
survivor Cagayan is premiering you can expect a detailed review of the premiere
on Thursday. Don't forget to check out the 'meet the cast' vids if you're interested down below. Enjoy the premiere and I will see you soon.
