ALL STAR POTENTIALS
Jeff Goldblum, 11th Place, one of the most popular castaways to join the cast, Jeff Goldblum came to Kaoh Rong with one goal in mind; to claim the title of sole survivor. And he certainly started off on the right foot, instantly bonding with Stevie Nicks and forming a final two on day one as well as being on the strongest pre-merge tribe, winning all of the pre-swap immunity challenges and looking set to be the final player standing, however, after being exiled at the swap and losing two vital tribesmates, the original Gondol went into the merge without the best of numbers, becoming “Pagonged” and Jeff Goldblum became the merger boot after everyone felt he was the biggest threat to win, landing in eleventh place and being eliminated from the jury by Nicole Kidman in the special twist.
Stevie Nicks , 8th Place, the original rockstar witch, Stevie Nicks came to Kaoh Rong hoping to prove that even the oldest can win the game of Survivor. Instantly, she bonded with Jeff Goldblum and the two agreed to a final two on day one. Stevie’s eccentric behavior rubbed most of the tribesmates the wrong way, however, and was constantly seen as a target for tribal prior to all of the challenges, however, the Gondol tribe won all of the pre-swap challenges which, in addition to finding an idol, protected Stevie for a large portion of the game, however, after losing two Gondol’s at the swap, the rest of them were “Pagonged” at the merge, starting first with her ally Jeff Goldblum. Stevie, however, was apart of the blindside of Alexandra Guarnaschelli and things looked as if they were looking up for Stevie, however, the rest of the tribesmates continued the Pagonging and Stevie landed in eighth.
Susie Meister, 7th Place, a girl who is no stranger to reality competitions, Susie Meister came to Kaoh Rong and instantly hit the ground running, forming within the first three days one of the strongest alliances of the game with she, Alex, Haley, and The Vixen. The four were infamously involved in the biggest blindside of the season when Tom Cruise exited second from the island and after this, the momentum continued for Susie as the leader of her alliance into the merge. At the merge, Susie orchestrated the “Pagonging” of the Gondol tribe and was seen as the head honcho of the game. Susie slipped up, however, and neglected to account that Anne could side with the original Chan Loh tribe and despite the Vixen utilizing an extra vote to force a tie, Anne viewed Susie as the biggest threat moving forward and changed her vote to avoid drawing rocks and Susie landed in the jury in seventh place.
Laura Dern, 6th Place, the true star of the season, Laura Dern came to Kaoh Rong and was fortunate enough to be on a tribe with her good friend, Nicole Kidman. On day one, they added Theo James into the mix to create a very strong final three alliance, controlling the votes as their first few tribal councils and being able to survive the swap to the merge. Laura proved that she was also a physical threat, winning a few immunities to secure her the leverage to drop names before the votes, assisting in the “Pagonging” of the strong Gondol tribe. When things got down to it, however, Laura and Nicole were blindsided after The Vixen played an idol and Theo turned on them, sending Laura home in sixth place as the fifth jury member.
The Vixen, 4th Place, one of the most controversial casting decisions of the game, The Vixen came to Kaoh Rong and hoped to erase her villain like status from her time on RuPaul’s Drag Race, however, he played even more of a ruthless game on Survivor. He instantly connected more with the women and latched into their alliance, not knowing they all planned to take him to the end as a goat. The alliance dominated the pre-merge, eliminating huge threat Tom Cruise, as well as helping to begin the decimation of the Gondol tribe with the help of alliance leader, Susie Meister. The Vixen, however, was seen as a liability to his group after he constantly bickered with the other castaways and when he used his extra vote to attempt to save Susie, he was, for the first time, seen as a loyal hero but after all of his allies were soon picked off one by one, he had to rely on clutch immunity wins to advance as well as an infamous idol play but when he failed to win the final immunity challenge, he was eliminated in fourth place and became the final jury member.
Theo James, Runner Up, one of the more quiet, low-key players, Theo James joined Survivor and due to his more A-List status, instantly connected more with Nicole Kidman and Laura Dern. The trio controlled their original tribe, eliminated the players that were against them, and they sailed through the swap into the merge. Theo opted to lay low despite Nicole Kidman and Laura Dern openly calling shots and he was always seen as the lesser of the threats. In one of the most infamous moves of the season, Theo, hoping to build his jury resume, helped in the blindside of Laura Dern and despite thinking it was his best move, it alienated himself from Nicole and despite making it to the end, everyone viewed the move as a cheap trick that really looked moreso like a villainous move than a strategic one, as Laura and Nicole had protected him so long and he lost in the end, placing second.
Nicole Kidman, Sole Survivor, likely the biggest name in the cast, Nicole Kidman came to Kaoh Rong and knew she would have to work it hard if she were to win, especially with her ex-husband Tom Cruise in the cast, however, after Tom exited early and Nicole formed a tight bond with Laura Dern and Theo James, it looked as if it was written in the stars for Nicole to win, however, after entering the merge with the least amount of original tribesmates, Nicole almost was ousted at the first vote but was spared when the others felt “Pagonging” Gondol was a smarter move. As the alliance survived more and more votes, it looked as if they’d be the top three, however, Theo blindsided Laura Dern in sixth and Nicole, from the top five until the end, had to play a solo game, relying on clutch immunities to secure her spot in the finals where the jury overwhelmingly felt she played the game the best and cleanest and rewarded her with the win.
