According to her own castmates Sophie Segreti was one of the most competitive players on the Survivor 49 island…but you wouldn’t know that with the almost ‘purple’ edit she had during the first part of the season. To put things in perspective though, the Hina Tribe didn’t lose someone though until five episodes in when the tribes were swapped. Now a member of the jury, Sophie filled us in all that we might have missed about her Survivor journey.
John Powell: Sophie, it’s great to be talking to you today. How are you?
Sophie Segreti: Honestly, doing much better than expected. I hate to lose. I’m a competitor so I am not going to lie. Last night was a little rough to watch but I’m in good spirits today.
John Powell: Well, I have to say I sympathize and empathize with you because all the way through high school, all the way through public school in our classes there was two other Johns. So I became ‘John P’ the whole time. So, you can imagine in public school being called John ‘P’. How did ‘Yellow Sophie’ come about? Did you have any say? How did this work out?
Sophie Segreti: So we had no say in ‘Yellow Sophie’ versus ‘Blue Sophie’. That’s just like, early on, how we were able to distinguish us but what’s funny is the whole time I’m like: ‘Come on! Kele keeps losing. Vote her out, if for no other reason then so I can be the only Sophie!’ When that didn’t work out Jeff (Prost) told us you cannot do the blue and yellow thing. We are not doing that.
We had originally wanted to go by our last names which I think are sick: Segreti and Balerdi! However, somebody on our cast, who I won’t put their name out there, was like: ‘They’re too hard to pronounce, they’re too many syllables.’
