A Survivor Player Admitted She Used Tampons To Smuggle In Items, And It Did Not Go Well
Yahoo • • entertainment
Key Points:
- Survivor contestant Francesca Hogi revealed she smuggled prohibited items like floss and allergy pills into the game by hiding them inside tampons, which are allowed on the show, successfully bypassing the rules.
- Francesca’s tampering was so well done that she later mistakenly opened the doctored tampons herself after being voted out early in both of her seasons, Redemption Island and Caramoan.
- Despite being voted out first twice and not making a deep run, Francesca left a memorable legacy due to her feud with fellow contestant Phillip Sheppard and her unique gameplay antics.
- Francesca clarified that the pills and floss fell out of the tampon applicator, not from her body, addressing some fan misunderstandings about her story.
- Although she was reportedly contacted to return for Survivor 50, Francesca declined, and her rule-breaking is not seen as a barrier to future appearances since such behavior is common among contestants.
