New York Publish: How do you assume you’d’ve fared within the remaining 3 jury vote for those who made it there?
Teeny Chirichillo: Opposite to highly regarded perception, I don’t assume I might have been a no vote finalist. I feel I might have gotten Sol. I feel I might have gotten one. I feel perhaps there’s potential that I may have gotten extra. I do assume I’m a compelling speaker. I feel I might have been in a position to personal recreation in methods and communicate to the strengths that I had within the recreation. I’m hopeful that I might I might have gotten extra votes than one. I do know that I might have gotten one. However in the end you noticed Rachel, proper? I imply, come on. So I do know that Rachel is the winner of Survivor 47, and if she’s sitting towards me she’s nonetheless the winner of Survivor 47. However I do nonetheless really feel like I had a combat to place up and it might have been a great one.
Why did you determine to vote for Rachel over Sam and Sue?
Speaker 2: It’s simply simple the dominance of Rachel’s win. It’s simply unimaginable to see, to have been part of, and to witness. Going into it I used to be fairly assured that I’d vote for Rachel. However actually, as Sam was speaking I did have waves of like, ‘Huh.’ His talking is so compelling. He was the one individual within the remaining three who had a hand in Operation Italy, which is just like the transfer of the sport. I do respect his scrappiness. And I additionally do really feel compassion as a result of if it wasn’t Sam sitting there, it might have been me within the uphill battle towards Rachel and I might’ve wished somebody to advocate for me and root for me.
I had these waves of emotions and people emotions had been nonetheless true. Nevertheless, it was only a no brainer to place my vote on Rachel on the finish of the day.
You had an up and down relationship with Sam? How do you’re feeling in regards to the social media response to it and folks claiming that you just hate males?
I don’t hate all males. I don’t. I imply, it was fully internal projections and internal gender id points that I projected onto him. And I’m happy with myself for with the ability to reconcile with that and communicate to it on the market. I want that I used to be in a position to do it sooner as a result of he didn’t deserve [that]. The criticisms that I’ve gotten from folks when it comes to like, ‘Of course he wasn’t going to take her the reward.’ I’m like, ‘You guys are valid.’ And I do know that. And so I simply need folks to know that I feel I’ve taken away from the second, the connection with him, the best way that I behaved in sure moments, the issues that I wanted to develop. However on the similar time I do have lot of compassion for the issues I used to be going by on the market as effectively. And in addition simply the weather of the sport of Survivor too.
However me and Sam are nice mates. I really like him. He’s been so beautiful. And we have now a great humorousness about all of it. I simply do need folks to know I don’t hate all males. I feel that most individuals who I might truly get together with in actual life know that. However there are individuals who I mentioned that on the market they usually had been by no means gonna care about me once more. So I perceive that as effectively.
Which vote would you say was the most important blow to your recreation?
It’s a tie in all probability between the Sol vote and the Operation Italy vote. The Sol vote was like an earthquake to me on the market. It was similar to every little thing is seismically improper and totally different now. I had plan of going to the tip of the sport with Sol. I wished to play the sport with Sol. I noticed a whole lot of potential for us to do it and that each one modified and Genevieve was part of that as effectively. I misplaced each of them and it was so tough and it actually emotionally tore me down in a approach that I discovered it onerous to recuperate from.
After which the Operation Italy vote, I simply felt like at the moment within the recreation was the place I actually wanted management, and to so loudly not have management was very sobering within the sense of like, okay, we’re on the finish now, and I simply obtained duped this badly. This feels scarily irreversible.
What was the most important change for you from going to watching Survivor to enjoying it?
For me, it was the excellence between being a fan and being a participant as a result of I really like the sport a lot and I really like the human tales of it and I really like the gamers of it a lot that generally it was onerous for me to close off. I might get duped and I’d be like, ‘Oh my God, that was epic. That was crazy.’ It was tough generally to not really feel like I used to be watching Survivor, but in addition enjoying on the similar time.
Any curiosity in enjoying a second time?
Yeah. Completely. I feel I’ve so much to show. I feel I’ve so much to vary and I might love the chance to do this.
