Castaway
Kelly Sharbaugh
Competed on Survivor: Samoa (2009), finishing 11th.
Kelly Sharbaugh was a hairstylist on Samoa's powerhouse Galu tribe — a young, capable player who rode Galu's pre-merge dominance while Russell Hantz's Foa Foa got picked apart on the other side. For a while, being on the strong tribe was all the cover she needed.
But Galu's numbers advantage unraveled at the merge, and Kelly was caught in the collapse, voted out in eleventh. A steady competitor undone by one of the great pre-merge-to-merge reversals.
Pulled from the urn — every vote ever cast against Kelly, and how often Kelly read the night right.
