Jeff Probst Defends Including Billie Eilish & More on Survivor 50 | E! News
After CBS competition series ‘Survivor’ teased celebrity cameos from the likes of Billie Eilish, Jimmy Fallon, Zac Brown and MrBeast during its upcoming 50th season, longtime host Jeff Probst shared how the idea to bring Hollywood fanfare to Fiji caused some backlash from fans. He told Variety in an interview published Jan. 5, “I think it’s a legitimate concern when you start adding layers like celebrities, that they can overshadow the game and take it off course. Our job was to make sure that we stayed true to what we’re doing on Survivor, which is exploring this continuous social experiment. And now we’re adding another layer.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1426964/survivors-jeff-probst-on-mrbeast-billie-eilish-jimmy-fallon-cameos

They are not real fans
A Billie Eilish 'Boomerang Idol' and MrBeast cameos? Jeff Probst really went for it with the Season 50 budget! Even with 24 legends like Cirie and Boston Rob returning, adding celebrities into the mix is such a wild move—I just hope the 'In the Hands of the Fans' twist means we get to vote them off if they get too annoying.
How incredibly lame!!!
I ABSOLUTELY love the seasons of Famous people, when Mike was on i recognized him from his awsome producing and writing, what is wrong with some of these Dummys, OMG some of these Dummys are acting like they are Left wing cry babies that LOST something and they are not even Nor will they ever be Fit enough to be o. OUR beloved Survivor, please dont listen to these Dummys and Proceed ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊🎉
I would love to be apart of 50 but I don’t get to why do they
They may have just jumped the shark.
They should have the 51 season be all celebrities. Interesting
No one cares losers
Eww there's only one genuine Jimmy there and he doesn't host a late night show. The other one is fake af!
Thanks Jeff. Now that you have Eilish on your Show I will NOT be Watching after her comments about ICE. Nothing but Evil comes out of a Person's Mouth with an Evil Tongue. She's a Demon and and I will NOT support Satan. This will be my 1st Season of Survivor I will NOT watch unless she is pulled from the Show with whatever she is supposed to do. Survivor doesn't need to be represented by people like her.
UGHHHHHHH
They should just do a future season with the cast being entirely made up of known celebrity super fans. Like for 55 or 60 but im sure it would probably be a logistical nightmare to get them all to agree to do the show at the same time.
Why not do an all celebrity survivor ! See if they have what it takes to survive ! I would love to see that !
