TMZ, he didn't just push "someone" to the ground - it was a woman!

Sucks for him. Too bad he wasn't lucky like that toothless chump who won the Powerball. That guy will squander it in no time. If I won I'd make a paper mache model out of $1000 bills, and then light it on fire while I was having my way with it. Yeah, I went there.

He's a helluva good guy, too.




He's the only reason I watch that show.




Keep on rockin', Russell. Ignore the BS buddy.

For the person who wrote "spoiler alert thanks TMZ", they didn't spoil anything. That was the first season (samoa) he was on that he was the runner up, they did not mention whether he wins or not this season.
PS. he isn't the best player ever, if he was he would have known there is a social aspect to the game also, which he sucked at (burning people's socks, emptying water cantena's etc). Also, he was a sucker and believed what what's her name said about coach wanting to vote him out. He's not as good as he thinks he is!

I don't believe that Russell is an oil millionaire, his grill is way too messed up for someone who has $$!! He's clearly self conscious about his missing teeth, so if he really was wealthy he'd take care of it ASAP. He has definitely brought new life to Survivor, funky teeth or not,I had stopped watching until he came on the show!

I would say "Free Russell!", but, apparently, he's already free. I agree with the person who said he's the best Survivor player ever. He sure was pissed last night, though. Anyway, whoever said he should have used his hidden idol had me lmao!

Tried to watch Survivor once. Watched for about 5 minutes. Started wishing that everyone on the show would die. Or at least get really sick. That would be a great show. Survivor Food Poisoning. They give everyone food poisoning. Then the person who is the last one vomiting has to leave.
