January
12, 2007: Liliana's official bio, from the CBS
S14 site...
"Liliana Gomez grew up the second eldest of eight siblings
in the city of Oxnard, California. Born of Mexican descent,
Gomez always held strong to her roots and decided, with the
permission of her parents, to move to Guadalajara, Jalisco,
for one year when she was 11 years old. Surrounded by the
rich, colorful folklore of Guadalajara, she discovered her
passion for music and singing.
Moving back to the United States, Gomez eventually became
an assistant for handicapped children at a local junior high
while she was attending high school. In 1999, she graduated
from Rio Mesa High School and then immediately joined the
United States Marine Corps where she served for eight years.
Gomez received her training in Parris Island, South Carolina,
and graduated as Squad Leader and Honor Graduate through
Military Occupation School. During her tour in the U.S. Marine
Corps, she served in the Operation Iraqi Freedom War in 2003.
Gomez
is currently a mortgage loan officer in Los Angeles where
she helps people buy, sell and/or refinance properties. She
aspires to pursue a career as an entertainer as her passion
has always been with the arts and working with children.
Gomez
enjoys anything athletic, the outdoors, music, singing, dancing,
independent films, barbeques and playing with her nephews,
Frankie and Dario. She also enjoys following professional
soccer. She describes herself as strong, stubborn, confident,
goofy and a witty gal. She is most proud of her sense of
family and her burning fire for life.
Gomez currently lives
in Oxnard, California. Her birth date is April 5, 1981."

December
17, 2006: Jeff Probst's voiceover from the Survivor:
Fiji preview (replete with actual contestant photos,
as far as we know) that aired during the Survivor:
Cook Islands reunion show:
"Coming in the new year... Survivor turns
the tables on two tribes, as one lives the life of luxury,
while the other is left with virtually nothing. For the first
time, there will be 19 new Survivors. This
diverse cast, with lifestyles ranging from a Harvard-educated
lawyer to a once-homeless street performer, will be
forced to battle each other more fiercely than ever before.
Crawling with thousands of deadly sea snakes, Exile Island
will be more treacherous than ever. This time, two
immunity idols and a twist will drastically complicate the
game. And one of the most controversial decisions ever
made by a Survivor will have America talking. Who will outwit,
outplay and outlast all the others? Join us next time, for
the premiere of Survivor: Fiji."
