Justine Ferrer is a contestant from Survivor Philippines: Palau.
She is known for being the first transgender contestant to compete in the Survivor franchise, and she is notable for being the first person voted out of her season and later rejoining the game at the merge by defeating all of the other castaways sent to Isla Purgatoryo. She would eventually make it to the Final Tribal Council, where she narrowly lost to Amanda Coolley Van Cooll in a 4-3-0 vote.
Profile[]
"Well, I can say that I'm a real Survivor because I have been the breadwinner of my family for 10 years now. Also, I am providing for my nephew's education and am helping my friends and relatives as much as I can. For me, winning their respect and love made me a real Survivor."
Justine Ferrer worked in Japan as a singer at the age of 19 and since then has become the breadwinner of the family. As a businesswoman, Justine helped her father in his buy-and sell business and managed a baby ultrasound company. To physically prepare for the Survivor Philippines: Palau, Justine enhanced her skills by taking swimming lessons, but most of all she invested on a lot of rest and vitamins. She has prepared emotionally for the experiences ahead of her on the island. Justine believes that her "uniqueness" is the key for her to become a Castaway. "I think I was chosen because they are curious about what's really inside of me and my behavior," Justine said.
