Natalie White was crowned the winner of Survivor:Samoa. The 26 year old beat out Texas, oil millionaire Russell Hantz, 36, whom most had picked to win.
Natalie, a former pharmaceutical sales rep from Van Buren, Arkansas took home the title of sole survivor by gaining 5 out of the 7 votes from the jury panel. The final three came down to Mick, Russell and Natalie. Mick Trimming was eliminated leaving Russell and Natalie to battle it out for the $1 million prize.
Though accused by jury members of riding the coattails of Russell, Natalie says she recognized early in the game that aggressive women were being eliminated, which is why she chose to maintain a low profile. And despite Russell’s reputation of being a gameplayer, the jury consisting of Dave, Laura, Kelly, Brett, Jaison, Shambo and Erik picked Natalie to be the winner.
“The nice girl outwitted and outplayed ” me, said Russell. Natalie becomes the 19th winner in Survivor history. As for whether or not Russell is really a millionaire, “Yes,” he insists. “That’s silly that people even concentrate on that. So what if I wasn’t?” When pointed out that it matters to people who are curious whether his deception extends beyond his “character” in the game. “I’m completely honest when it comes to outside the game,” said Russell. “I have no reason to lie outside the game.”
Russell also surprisingly won the $100,000 fan favorite award.
It has been revealed that the 20th edition of “Survivor” will be an All-Star season dubbed “Survivor: Heroes Versus Villains“. It will feature 20 cast members from previous seasons. It is scheduled to premiere on February 11.
TELL US – SHOULD RUSSELL HAVE WON SURVIVOR:SAMOA OVER NATALIE?

“Russell also surprisingly won the $100,000 fan favorite award.” Don’t think that was too surprising, actually. And sour grapes from the jury who voted out of spite rather than gameplay. Russell = best Survivor player ever. Definitely deserved the win
He should have won. He was robbed.
No doubt Russell should have won. Natalie did nothing – except follow Russell. He is without a doubt the best Survivor player ever. Love how once you are on the jury, it’s no longer “RIGHT” to lie – they all do it. It’s SURVIVOR – have they never watched one before? Why would it be different for there time to play?
Learn to vote for the one that Outwits, Outplays and Outlasts – not by “wasn’t he mean . . .”, etc.
I feel Russell should have won the game handsdown. He outplayed, outwitted everyone!!!! I have watched every season of Survivor and Russell by far is the best player to EVER play the game. I feel that contestants on the show make this entirely too personal and forget they are playing a game. I have nothing againist Natalie but she would never have made it to the end if it had not been for Russell. I feel if he had taken Shambo and Mick to the end he would have won. He chose to take the wrong person to the end with him.
