## Resource

The latest player voted out of Survivor 50, Chrissy Hofbeck joins The Exclusive to break down the “brilliant” twist that led to her elimination and why she and Coach ultimately “both are responsible for our own demise.” Chrissy reflects on going into Tribal Council “feeling safe,” the shocking vote flip that blindsided her, and how Devens’ fake idol chaos played into the outcome. She also opens up about her complicated dynamic with Rizo, addresses the “Zoom Alliance” rumors, and explains why, despite the result, she leaves the game with “a grateful heart” and no regrets about her Survivor journey.
