Survivor Micronesia: The Black Widows’ 20/20 Hindsight

Orato.com: Natalie, Everyone’s talking about your question to Parvati this morning! How did you come up with that question?

Natalie: I know people are really confused right now. The thing is I had 12 extra days to bond and connect with Parvati. I got some insight into who she was as a person. She kept her word to me and she honored our relationship, and therefore I knew she was going to get my vote.

I thought, ‘Ok cool, but I’m not just going to hand her a million dollar cheque; I’m going to make her sweat and make her think quickly on her feet.’ I wanted to try to embarrass her just a little bit, and if she answered quickly, then she earned my million dollar vote. That’s all that was – just to shake her up a little bit.

Orato.com: Amanda, how are you coping with not winning the million dollars?

Amanda: Things happen for a reason and Survivor isn’t my life; I have other things going on. It is kind of upsetting to make it to the finals two times in a row and you lose both times. You get over it.

Parv and I both knew when we made it to the final two that we each had a 50/50 chance. I’m happy for Parvati.

Orato.com: You mentioned you have a lot going on. We all couldn’t help but notice that Ozzy declared his love for you in front of the whole world and you just said “Thank you.” What were you thinking?

Amanda: They didn’t show this, but when Ozzy said that I was pausing for like 20 seconds with my mouth open. I was really shocked. I didn’t know what to say. But yeah, he’s adorable and we’re still together. We’re doing great.
