'Survivor: Cagayan' Cast: Which Beauty Tribe Member Will Last the Longest in Season 28? [POLL]
On the upcoming Survivor: Cagayan (season 28), the concept of brawn vs. brains vs beauty may work against the beauty tribe.
Survivor: Cagayan is working with the concept of splitting 18 new players into three tribes of six, each tribe with a specific skill set. While the brawn tribe is made up of physically strong competitors and the brains tribe is full of thinkers, the beauty tribe is strong in their physical attractiveness.
The women on the beauty tribe are some of the youngest members of the cast. Ex-NFL cheerleader Morgan McLeod is a 21-year-old from California. 21-year-old Jefra Bland is a 22-year-old Miss Kentucky Teen USA winner. Alexis Maxwell is a 22-year-old student from Illinois.
On the official Survivor website, Alexis cites her psychology background as something that will help her in the game, while Jefra believes her fight with cervical cancer has made her tough enough to compete. Morgan said that her ambition will allow her to get to the end of the game.
The beauty tribe's men are slightly more diverse in occupation and physicality. Horse trainer LJ McKanas is a 34-year-old from Massachusetts while Jeremiah Wood is a 34-year-old North Carolina model and Brice Johnston is a 27-year-old social worker from Pennsylvania.
Brice said that his ability to get people to like him will help in the game. Jeremiah thinks that his strength in thriving in the outdoors will make him an asset. LJ explained his three-part strategy as becoming a physical asset at the start of the game, using his charm in the middle and his smarts at the end.
Survivor: Cagayan premieres Wednesday, Feb. 26 at 8 p.m. on CBS. The season 28 premiere will be two-hours long for the first time since season 20's Heroes vs. Villains.
