= 52. JENNY GUZON-BAE =
I never know how to pronounce her name. In my head it's Jenny Goes On Bye. Jenny was EASILY my favo member of Puka Puka as she was the only one that had a personality (Cao Boi's mental instability ≠ a personality, sry). A bitchy personality. She doesn't get a lot of support around here and I'm not sure she ever had a fan base, but she really did play a big part in Cook Islands towards the middle of the season. Originally she didn't fit in with her bland, robotic Puka Puka's and I was glad she was on Raro, the fun tribe. She teamed up with Rebecca to form a Grrl Power alliance and vote off JP and even though I was sad to see his upper body go, it was nice to see the women sticking together. It didn't last long because she got into a feud with police-woman and gunshot wound victim Cristina, and I was 100% on Jenny's side because Cristina was a c u next tuesday and I randomly hated her so much. Of course editing was totally against Jenny in that battle and it didn't help when Jenny made the ill-advised but AWESOME decision to draw a gun next to Cristina's name as she voted her out
That bitch deserved it. It was a complete tragedy to me when Jenny was voted out over Jonathan during
the surprise double-eviction/bottle twist/rigging that took place. Jenny is one of only a handful premerge boots that really have a place in my ~heart~.
On Jenny's personality: Jenny was no-nonsense and was totally the arbitrator of cool at Raro. She would determine whether you were in or out. All of that was thrown into flux with the mutiny, but prior to that Jenny was a networking phenom. She was in the core group with Nate, Parvati and Adam but she also had strong connections to people on the fringe, like Rebecca and Brad. A lot of people say Jenny was a bitch and she was. But she was also right.
On Jenny's gameplay: Jenny's game is totally underrated! She was an unsung victim of the brutally obvious rigging that took place in Cook Islands, and without it she would've been top 5 AT LEAST. Probably higher. As I said she was in the middle of everything on Raro and in a very secure position despite being a physical liability. If she had lasted to the merge she could have made it to the finals maybe. Jeff Probst tricked her tribe into voting her off anyway.
On Jenny's placement: Jenny's contribution to the shows history is so often overlooked and ignored. One of the reasons Jenny ranks so highly on this list is because she posted a bunch of loser lodge pictures on the web for Survivor fans to enjoy, which I totally appreciated. She's always been very positive about her experience despite the negative edit that she received (she's probably cool enough to realize that negative edits are always more complex and ~real~ anyway). At the same time, I like Jenny a lot, but I'm not "in like" with her, so this is as high as I can put her given her irrelevancy.
