Monica Culpepper

Known for

Monica started One World on the outside of an all-women Salani tribe run by Alicia Rosa's five, surviving only because the tribe needed her in challenges. After the tribe switch she tried to recruit Colton Cumbie to boot Tarzan Smith, unaware that he and Alicia had already marked her, and she was blindsided.

In Blood vs. Water she returned alongside husband Brad Culpepper, burned the idol clue on his advice, and landed in the Galang majority with Gervase Peterson, Tyson Apostol and friends. Losing Brad early and learning she sat at the bottom of her alliance rattled her, but she kept winning, taking three individual immunities and coming through a rock-draw tiebreaker she was immune from. Late in the game she became the swing vote again and again, and stayed with Tyson and Gervase to the end. At Final Tribal she said she had no blood on her hands; the jury said they barely knew her. Her lone vote came from Vytas Baskauskas, a juror she herself had voted against.
