Parvati was obviously busy last week, she didn't even check her Mysapce until the weekend, so we'll probably keep seeing more media she has done.

Here are some of the highlights of her FORT interview. The rest of the F4 were interviewed together - poor Amanda stuck with two jurors who didn't vote for her.

Q: Someone said you played the flirt card beautifully. Do you credit your flirtatiousness with edging out Amanda?
A: No. I think the reason I got a couple more votes than Amanda is that I owned up to the moves I made, and Amanda didn't do that. She tried to please the jury, and I gave it to them straight.

Q: Whose vote in your favor surprised you the most?
A: I could not believe that Eliza voted for me! My arch rival-the entire game we were out to get each other. But I guess in the end she respected that, that we gave each other a run for the money.

Q: Were you surprised that Amanda decided to take you over Cirie?
A: No, I wasn't surprised, which is why I didn't give my heart and soul to that last immunity challenge, because I didn't want to be in that position. I knew either one would take me.

Q: Did you read anything on the internet where you were predicted as the winner?
A: No, not really, I thought Amanda, probably, would win. I figured I had the girl vote, that had Cirie and Natalie and Alexis, and Amanda had Ozzy, James, and Eric, so Eliza and Jason were the toss-ups.

Q: Amanda has gotten to the number two spot twice now. What is it about her that she can't close the deal? How come she goes so far but falls apart at the end?
A: I think what Amanda doesn't realize, what she doesn't portray in her final speech, is that she actually did play the game, and she didn't own up to the moves that she made, and how she played the game, she kind of skirted around the issue, and the jury wanted honest answers, and someone who was going to stand their ground. When you vote someone out, they want you to be like-"Yeah you got me, but admit it, and you're a good strategist, so I'll give you my vote."

Q: Do you think you got a fair edit?
A: Yeah, I think so-they left out a lot of stuff, and tried to make me look like a swing vote; like with Ozzy I was not the swing vote, that was my idea. That was just a good story. But otherwise, I am who I am; they can't really edit you to be someone who you're not.

Q: You mentioned infections-back when you smashed your lip, how did you avoid infection?
A: Actually I didn't smash it open, it was just a big hideous bruise.

Q: How long did it take to heal?
A: It was purple for I think two weeks, but I didn't have a mirror, so I couldn't tell if it was gone or not. I just kept asking James, and he just said, "Oh, your pretty lip!" And I was like, "Shut up, idiot!"

Q: Food-wise, what did you crave the most out there?
A: Quesadillas! I wanted quesadillas so bad-I just wanted cheese.


FORT - Rest of F4

Q: Amanda, what did you think when Eliza called you mean and superficial?
Amanda; I know, the girl was so mean to me. Seriously.

Q: How hard is it to be nice to someone in that hot seat when you have to suck up to the jury?
Amanda: Honestly, I've gone through this my whole life - girls being kind of petty and mean to me. Just because I'm in pageants doesn't mean I'm superficial, and just because I don't talk all the time doesn't mean I have nothing to say. It's just frustrating.

Q: Right at the end, whose jury speech was the most harsh or the most surprising to you?
Amanda: Natalie, Alexis, and Eliza were pretty harsh to me. I don't know. I wasn't expecting that, really.


Q: Natalie, was Parvati kind of a flirt with you?
Natalie: You know what? No. Parvati flirts with everybody. She has an amazing quality about her, and I think on camera it's one-dimensional that you see, "Oh Parvati's a flirt." But you know, when she's there as a human being on an island with you, you get to see layers to her, and that's a quality she has where she brings guys and girls and opens up and welcomes with her personality. She's loving and engaging and funny and charismatic. Everybody labels it a "flirt" but that's just one flippant term you can throw on it and she's a lot deeper than being a quote/unquote flirt. So did she flirt with me? No, she didn't flirt with me. She's very amazing and very charismatic with me as she was with quite a few people in this game.


Q: Cirie, when you discovered you were going to be on the jury, what went through your mind?
Cirie: Well, first I was disturbed; I didn't want to be on the jury-then I really had to think, "Which of these two ladies deserves my vote, and the million dollars that I'm giving them?"

Q: Did you go in with a set vote, or did anything change your mind at the final Tribal Council?
Cirie: No, I think for me, nothing really changed at Tribal Council. It's kind of hard to hand a million dollars to another person who took it from you. I love Amanda, she knows that, but nothing was going to change my vote.

Amanda: She pretty much told me that she wasn't going to vote for me if I voted her out, but I knew I had no chance against Cirie at all, so it was kind of like, "What do you do?"


Q: What's it like sitting next to two people who gave away the million dollars to someone else? Are you guys tense?
Amanda: It's okay. I just can't get over how mean people were to me at the final tribal.

Q: If you had been on the jury, would you have been kind of mean? Or what kind of questions would you have been asking?
Amanda: No! This game is so crazy. Maybe this is just the wrong game for me. I don't like to hurt people's feelings-I'm like a generally nice person. I couldn't sit up there and ridicule someone for making it further than me. It's ridiculous!

Q: I think Natalie said that Parvati played the flirt card really well. Do you think in the end it was a popularity contest that got her the million dollars?
Amanda: Parvati is an amazing person. She has qualities that I really admire. She doesn't go with the flow, she does her own thing, she says her mind-she has amazing qualities, and I wish her the best.
