Probst ~ " a new set of contestants "
« on: June 17, 2004, 06:00:23 PM »
{ I saw this and thought it was sort of interesting..Jeffy talks a little about the Survivor 9 contestants ..}

Celebrities become carnies for AIDS benefit
By William Keck, USA TODAY

Perennial volunteer (and Survivor host) Jeff Probst helped kids decorate cupcakes (minus cockroaches and rat droppings). In one week, he takes off for Vanuatu (near Fiji in the Pacific) to test a new set of contestants (the next Survivor airs on CBS in September). Among the ninth season's cast, which he helped select: "a colorful guy who would call himself a redneck, super-cute girls who appear to be fighters, a bunch of cocky guys" and someone "inspirational" who Probst promised will "make you realize you can do anything you put your mind to."

The previous evening, Probst had been in Las Vegas hitting the blackjack tables with All-Star winner Amber Brkich and her fiancé, Rob Mariano. "Their big debate now is do they want to get married on television," Probst said. "Rob doesn't really care about getting married on television, but Amber's a businesswoman."

Thanks Puddin,

That was a good read.  I can't wait to get back to unknown players,  I hope it will be entertaining.

I look forward to this one as Jeff helped pick out the colourful characters.  I wonder how many of the cocky guys will try to align themselves with the super cute girls.  You know taking a page from "the strategies by the great Robfather."  :;>)

I think Rob does want to get married on TV... I think he is always out for whatever attention he can get.. and there is totally nothing wrong with that... Amber too.

Some Romber news~

 Maxim-um exposure
 
     It doesn't appear America is growing weary of ``Survivor'' survivors ``Boston'' Rob Mariano and fiancee Amber Brkich.
 
     The former Hub barkeep - whom we caught up with the other night at the Maxim party in Atlantic City - reports his agent is ``negotiating'' with a couple of TV networks that pine to broadcast the happy couple's nuptials ``sometime next year.''
 
     In the meantime, Rob just finished shooting TV spots for Procter & Gamble, the Red Sox on UPN38 and for CBS, the ``Survivor'' network. And he's been partying with Playboy Playmates at golf tournaments on both coasts.
 
     But after the Maxim bash, the lovebirds were flying south to Florida for some R&R in a house they've rented.
 
      You mean Amber couldn't part with some of her $1 million ``Survivor'' coin to buy property?
 
     ``We wanted to test the waters out first,'' he said.
 
     Which leads us to wonder if Rob meant ``test'' as in the relationship or real estate . .

Now, ladies, gents, etc. we ALL know the status of Probst. He is NOT married, unless you count the ceremony that he and Colby had in San Fransisco recently.........
