Danielle DiLorenzo
Panama's fire-making survivor, then the Villain who got too close to Parvati for Russell's comfort.
Known for
Danielle captained the Casaya schoolyard pick in Panama, spent the pre-merge sparring with Shane Powers, and rode Casaya's numbers through the merge while Terry Deitz won everything in sight. When a final-four tie forced a fire-making tiebreaker against her ally Cirie Fields, Danielle won it, then won the final immunity too and cut Terry, the man who had coached her on fire. That call cost her with the jury, and Aras Baskauskas beat her 5-2.
Her Terry betrayal earned her a Villains buff in Heroes vs. Villains, where she, Russell Hantz and Parvati Shallow started as the tribe's outsiders. A Double Tribal blindside of Tyson Apostol and the ouster of Rob Mariano flipped the power, and she won the first individual immunity after the merge. Then she and Parvati found an idol without telling Russell, he grew jealous of their bond, and after a brutal Tribal in which he tore into her, Danielle was blindsided 4-3.
