Exclusive: 4 Irrelevant Questions with a Survivor Cast Off

Although you probably stopped watching Survivor in the friendster era, it’s still in the top 12 of the 1145 new episodes of all TV each week.
We snuck an exclusive chat with latest vote-off Jacquie Berg, (Pharmaceutical Sales in Santa Barabara ‘current) to ask random questions about her experience on a show still in our top 12 also.
Jacquie spoke with us (above) from Vegas while visiting for a job interview.

TheCHIMP.net:Whats the first thing you ate when you got to the vote off camp?
Jacquie: A snickers bar. I was craving starbucks. All I wanted was a starbucks.

TheCHIMP.net:Do you think (nicely manicured gay corporate lawyer) Charlie wants to bone (extremely well manicured straight doctor) Marcus?
Jacquie:Yes.

TheCHIMP.net:What’s the one thing that surprised you about Africa itself?
Jacquie:It wasn’t that hot. It was California weather. There weren’t that many bugs. It wasn’t that scary. I never saw any animals. All the edits of gorillas (they show) right next to us, there was no way. I went on hike after hike looking for animals and never saw one. We always heard the animals at dusk though.

TheCHIMP.net:Did people start recognizing you on the street when CBS announced the cast, or when the show started airing?
Jacquie:Not really. That hasn’t really happened.

TheCHIMP.net:Did you think about going to the mall to get recognized on the day after you got voted out? I used to suggest that to Fear Factor contestants.
Jacquie:A mall would have been a good idea.

Survivor airs Thursdays @ 8PM on CBS.

TheCHIMP.net Featured On Wonkette


From Wonkette (Monday, 18 Feb 2008):

How the hell is Mike Huckabee doing these days? Well, he’s thirsty, and he’s still running for President of Jesus, and to finance both of these things he delivered a paid speech in the Cayman Islands — where the Fat Cats hide their money — this weekend. Wonkette operative “Mikey G.” happened to spot Huckabee at....

Superbowl Parties: Inside the Style Villa with Paris Hilton


Paris Whitney Hilton (Waldorf Astoria '85, Twin Towers Jail '07) collected new underwear at the Hanes Style Villa on Friday (1 Feb).

In our ongoing series of souvenior photos, she autographed this official NFL football which we hear is being sold at a charity auction for $10,000. Don't blame us, she smudged the signature herself.

Who Had the Best 2007?


TheCHIMP.net asked select famous faces, "Which public figure had the best 2007?". Responses Given Exclusively and Direct to TheCHIMP.net:

Davey Havok
: “It all ends with Perez Hilton doesn't it?”

Rex Lee: “Al Gore. Nobel Prize, need I say more? Well, I guess I will: Academy Award.”

Mario Lopez: “Floyd Mayweather had a pretty good year. Made about 50 Million.”

Shanna Moakler: “I think Miley Cyrus. Her show and concerts have really taken off and it’s so awesome to see a young positive role model out there for my kids! I also think Angelina Jolie had a pretty amazing year and she is constantly sharing herself with others, its nice to see. “

Adrianne Curry:“The best public figure of 2007? OBAMA!!!”

Kim Kardashian:“I think the cast of High School Musical had a pretty good year.”

Samantha Harris: “I don’t have an answer for this.”

Giuliana Depandi: “I’m putting my chick cap on when I say Katie Holmes had a great year.

Not only did she give birth to one of the most beautiful babies I have EVER seen, but she also went from being a wallflower to one of Hollywood’s most glamorous Fashionistas. She ran and finished her first marathon, not easy. Plus, she’s responsible for one of the most amazing hairstyles of the year…that adorable bob with her freshly cut blunt bangs. All that while having her religion and marriage be scrutinized on a regular basis by the tabloids and the public in general. Go Katie!”

Phil Viardo Plays Dad to Adrianne Curry and Christopher Knight in Mother Russia

Every family trip needs two things: A Dad, and bull penis eating. Phil Viardo served as the former for the WE TV special “Chris and Adrianne do Russia”. He shlepped with friends, clients, and still newlyweds Adrianne Curry (America’s Next Top Model ‘03) and Christopher Knight (Peter Brady ‘70s, IT Industry Guru ‘90s) to host the Mrs. World pageant in Russia recently.

Manager extraordinaire and fellow- straight - male - in - the - entertainment pr-world Phil (Creskill H.S. – NJ ’95, Berklee Music College ’99, Harvard ’99) brought this project to life. For that, he was hauled in by TheCHIMP.net for a KGB style interrogation:

  • How would you compare the show to any of the iconic cinematic journeys: "Beavis and Butthead do America", "Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey", or “Me You, and Dupree”?

PHIL:Are you implying that I am “Dupree”??? HA, No, I think the trip was a nice blend of all of the above.

  • What’s the one thing you want people to know about the show/trip that will end up on the cutting room floor?
PHIL:Haha… there was so much good footage that it’s hard to say. I guess on my end, they left out a lot of my womanizing on the trip J I just wanted to show the world Russia’s OTHER beauty.
  • What first spawned the idea for Russia '07?
PHIL:I booked Chris and Adrianne to host the 2007 Mrs. World Pageant that took place in Russia. I was tapped to be a celebrity judge (they have really low standards for the term “celebrity” over there), so it seemed like a good idea to exploit the opportunity of us already being there. Hence, Jeff Androsky (our director) and I cooked up the idea and quickly got it green lit.
  • You’re the rare Harvard man in Hollywood. What came before that?
PHIL:I started out school in Professional Children’s School in NYC along with Mac Caulkin (though he was younger), Sarah Gellar was in my class, Don Faison – all the kids that were and are working in the biz. I then moved to Jersey and went to Cresskill High, graduating in 1995.
  • At what moment did you stop and have a moment of clarity: I am in the middle of Russia with a Brady and a Top Model?
PHIL:Well, I am from there, so me being there was not such a big deal. Me being there with a Brady and Adrianne… with cameras in tow – 5 years ago I’d never even imagine, but more recently – we talked about it a lot. We have traveled to other countries together and they have always expressed interest in visiting Russia with me, so when this opportunity came along – it truly just made good sense.
  • How is Russia “like” or “not like” Rocky IV?

PHIL:HA! Well, there are no more bread lines and you can’t use jeans as currency anymore… Although, the political climate is changing there right now towards the old days. Only this time – the country is LOADED and ARROGANT, so I hope we get to avoid another cold War. So, as long as one stays under the Radar and enjoys the best the country has to offer – all is good.

  • Who got recognized more on the street in Russia and what was the weird thing they remembered or would say to that person?

PHIL:You know what, Me.

Russia has their own version of Top Model and Brady Bunch doesn’t play there. This was JUST FINE with Chris and Adri. They like the anonymity, especially when they are working . My dad was and is a very famous musician there, so I still get the residual of a “Son of a Famous Person” kind of recognition…. Dare I say, kind of like a Sean Stewart? (Yikes!)


PHIL:Funny you should say that. I was at the last one and we were all sitting with Danny when it all went down. It was Adrianne and Chris who egged him on initially. None of us knew what was coming, but I was laughing my ass off. I will present next to Danny any day. He is good people, just don’t try to hump him.
The show racked up huge numbers for WE so set your TIVOs, or check the repeat schedule.

$3700 buys Paris a XXX Good Time

Milo Ventimiglia (El Modena H.S. - CA '95, Heroes 'current) hosted the big Nissan/Matchbox 20 party last night, but was Paris paid to be there?

CHIMP.net EXCLUSIVE:

A CHIMP.net operative just sent a shopping spree sighting: "Paris Hilton Alone" at Fred Segal Fun (No Paparazzi, no correctional officer entourage, yes blackberry, yes pout)

The funtimer (DwightSchool-NY '99, Cantebury Prep '99, GED 'unknown) casually slipped in to the Santa Monica branch this afternoon (Wed 11.28, 4PM) to drop $3700.00 in 34 minutes.

She bought backless bras from a company called "Nu Bras", and several T-shirts designed by AFI frontman Davey Havok's line Paden called "The XXX".
Paris & XXX...hmmm, sounds about right.

Live from Fenway Park

TheCHIMP.net went on location to Fenway Park for Game 4 of the World Series on Sunday night (10.28.07). Jenny Buck (Deerfield '94, Boston College '98) approved our Yawkey Way basecamp, the once infamous Friday night underage mecca, "Who's on First". She texted in, "Hilarious, I made out a lot there."

Amidst the crowd, we created this photo graveyard of recent Boston sports history.

World Exclusive: Inside PARC's Kitchen

While Parc’s exterior turns in to celebutante sound stage nightly, its interior has bashfully retained some mystery, and its Hyde/Winston’s killing gourmet kitchen has yet to reach TMZ’s cameras. TheCHIMP.net has gotten the first ever, worldwide exclusive, kitchen tour right from new media darling, Chef J (Personal Chef Pam Anderson '02, Black Steel '06, 'Parc current)

While the vegetarianism remains intact, we were the beneficiaries of a personally cooked batch of Short Ribs – noshed by Rappa this past Monday (5.14). ("2 sauce drenched thumbs up")

Meanwhile in the front of the house:

Dan Miller (Georgetown ’98, Screen Capital Film Finance ‘current) coveted Rappa’s smoky personal batch of animal bone and meat as she emerged from the kitchen. There was enough to go around as Dan, on a dinner date, clearly had his own bone and meat with him already (left)…...

...another attractive young couple slugged their way in to the Monday night "Dancing with the Stars" after-party way early for dinner, Josh Duhamel (Male Model ‘90s, NBC’s “Las Vegas” ’03 –?) and Fergie (Pant Wetter ’05 - ?) casually walked in together asking for a table for 2 at the host stand.
