Name: Jacque Berg
Age: 25
Hometown: Santa Barbara, California
Occupation: Medical Sales (hmm, sounds familiar)
Bio: Jacque Berg always plays to win and will settle for nothing less than number one. She's trained her whole life to play a game like SURVIVOR. Competing in several sports such as gymnastics, water polo, crew, track and swimming, she's proven herself a leader.
Berg thrives off pressure and has gone as far as competing against sales executives with 10 years experience to land her dream job as a medical device sales representative. Berg, one of the youngest people in her industry, is also a writer and charity organizer.
Constantly on the go, Jacque admits she doesn't like to sit still and is full of life. Her hobbies include running, swimming, surfing and boating. She describes herself as enthusiastic, adventurous, sweet and extremely positive. Her biggest pet peeve is people who talk about their big dreams but do nothing about it. She believes we all have control over our own destiny.
Berg confesses that she performs her best when in extreme situations and can't wait to overcome the physical and mental challenges SURVIVOR will offer.
Berg grew up in Minnesota and is currently single and lives in Santa Barbara, California. She has a B.S. in business administration from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
Her birth date is September 10, 1982.
Jeff Probst says: I think Jacque will be a bit of a dark horse. I dont think shell be a leader. I think shell use her looks and her charm to get in with the right guy and hope that she can ride with that guy as far as she can. If Jacque gets deep into the show I think shes a legitimate threat at the challenges. Shes pretty fit.
Name: Jessica "Sugar" Kiper
Age: 29
Hometown: Brooklyn, New York
Occupation: Pin-Up Model (uh...)
Bio: Jessica Kiper prides herself on being flirty and fun. When she is not acting, this 29 year old works as a waitress named "Sugar" at '50s diners and enjoys singing and making music. Friends describe this single, free-spirit as crazy, funny and cool. Currently, this blonde pin-up model lives in Brooklyn, N.Y. with her dog, "Major P. Pants," but has spent time living in various places throughout the country including Florida, Rhode Island, Louisiana, and San Francisco and Los Angeles, California.
Jessica can be a bit of a goofball and her laugh is contagious. Although at first glance she may not look tough, despite being adorned with several tattoos, Kiper has been through a lot in her life, including the recent death of her father, whom she called her hero. Despite the struggles she's faced, Kiper has always come out on top. She is ready to bring her spunk, positive attitude and bubbly personality into the game of SURVIVOR and hopes to grow as a person after the experience and win enough money to "get off people's couches."
Jessica was born on February 22, 1979. Those who watch the show "Gilmore Girls" may recognize her.
Jeff Probst says: She makes every decision from her heart and not her head. Shes very emotional, somewhat naïve, and I think when you first look at her, the question is going to be, Can she hack it out here? Does she have what it takes? It doesnt take much for Sugar to break into tears.
Hey Probst, you already bonded with another contestant, keep your eyes off this one. Besides, she's really just another out of work actress looking for "couch work"....(wink, wink)
One quick snake bite and she'll be out of the competition......
“....to land her dream job as a medical device sales representative.”
?!?!?!
Also, people who describe themselves as leaders are seldom leaders.
