January 21, 2009: Andy Dehnart of Reality
Blurred blogging fame posts a
late pre-game interview with Erinn.
Among the highlights:
"Erinn was recruited in Louisville the day after the Kentucky
Derby when hanging out with friends and initially said no,
but changed her mind after a few hours had passed, in part
because her mom convinced her to at least give casting a shot.
She’d only watched a few episodes with her parents, who
are fans, and said, 'I knew what I was getting into enough
that when they found me and asked me, I said no. I was like,
There’s
no way, not a chance. It’s not going to happen. … I
thought about it for about an hour or so—no, gross, I’m
girly and princessy, no. I don’t eat bugs, I don’t
live in dirt.'"
January, 2009: CBS gets around to putting
up S18 content:
"Erinn Lobdell is a hairstylist and make-up artist
who is out to prove she's not just another pretty face.
After recently going through a very personal growing
experience, Erinn is ready to prove that she can make
it on her own and rise to the challenge Survivor will
bring.
"A lot of times I've found that
people don't think I'm smart enough to play games." says
Erinn. Although she's fine with people thinking she's
dumb because, according to her, "she'll be dumb
like a fox." Those people couldn't be more wrong
as she is ready to show off her strong people skills
as well as her ability to read the faces of her competition.
Through skills learned at her job, she's been able
to adjust her behavior depending on the situation which
can serve as a great strategy in the game.
As a runner,
Erinn is very athletic and is constantly training for
the next big event. She recently completed training
for a marathon and works out everyday to stay in great
shape. To her, Survivor will be a very enriching experience
and she is certain she will excel.
Erinn
currently resides in Milwaukee, Wis. Her birth date
is October 21."
