Parvati Shallow

Sign in to edit

Parvati Shallow is the Sole Survivor of Survivor: Micronesia and Survivor: Australia v The World. She originally competed on Survivor: Cook Islands, and later on Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains and Survivor: Winners at War.

Best known for her feminine charm, interpersonal skills, physical prowess, and judicious thinking, Parvati was able to survive multiple votes and manipulate other competitors to do her bidding, earning her the moniker, the "Black Widow". Regarded as one of the greatest and most versatile players to play the game, Parvati remains in many respects a touchstone of Survivor culture.

As of date, Parvati is the most prolific contestant in the entire Survivor series, having played a record 165 days across five seasons, two franchises, and achieving deep runs in all of them.

Profile[]

Retrieved from CBS.com

Parvati Shallow grew up the eldest of three siblings on a commune in Vero Beach, Florida. She and her family moved to Atlanta when she was 11 years old. Having studied martial arts since her youth, she currently works as a female boxer and cocktail waitress. She previously worked as a model, bartender and in public relations.

Striking out on her own when she was 17 years old, Shallow put herself through college, attending the University of Georgia where she received her Bachelor of Arts Degree in journalism with a minor in French. While in college, she was an active member of the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority.

Shallow enjoys boxing, running, hiking, volleyball, yoga, skiing, softball, dancing and swimming (she was on her high school swim team all four years). She loves the outdoors and gets "super cranky" if she can't play outside in the sun on a daily basis. She is most proud of being a female boxer for Perfect 10 Model Boxing.

Shallow currently resides in West Hollywood, California. Her birth date is September 21, 1982.[1]

Parvati Shallow grew up the eldest of three siblings on a commune in Vero Beach, Florida. She and her family moved to Atlanta when she was 11 years old. Shallow put herself through college, attending the University of Georgia where she received her Bachelor of Arts degree in journalism with minors in French and Italian. While in college, she was an active member of the Alpha Omicron Pi sorority and is a huge Bulldog fan!

A nature lover at heart, Shallow has spent extensive amounts of time camping and hiking through North America's state parks including the Tetons and Yellowstone. While in college, she organized a two-month backpacking trip through Europe where she and two friends visited 13 countries, sleeping in youth hostels, train stations, on beaches and park benches. Shallow's favorites include good sushi, wearing oversized jerseys, karaoke and cheering on "The Dawgs." She is also training for triathlons with her mom, Gale.

Shallow has found her niche with the Los Angeles boxing community and began competing in 2004. She and some fellow boxers have parlayed her passion for the sport into the creation of a non-profit organization titled "Knockouts for Girls," a charity that provides scholarships and boxing lessons for underprivileged girls. The organization recently held their first fundraising event that included boxing matches and a fashion show. Having been a huge success, she will be boxing at a second fundraiser in February, 2008.

Shallow currently resides in Los Angeles, California. Her birth date is September 21, 1982.[2]

Hometown: Atlanta, Georgia
Current residence: Los Angeles, California
Previous seasons: Survivor: Cook Islands (Season 13), Winner of Survivor: Fans vs. Favorites (Season 16), Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains (Season 20)
Occupation: Yoga Teacher, Life Coach, and Speaker
Hobbies: Posting photos of my baby on Instagram and yoga retreats.
Pet peeves: Heavy breathing.
Three words to describe you: Survivor, champion, goddess.
When did you first watch Survivor? When Stephenie LaGrossa crushed Palau.
Do you still watch Survivor? I do.
Who is your inspiration in life? One time I met a man in the Atlanta airport who had two prosthetic legs. He was in a wheelchair and traveling with an infant and his toddler—and zero support crew. He was smiling. That man blew my mind.
What does Survivor mean to you and your family? Survivor is my family. My husband competed on Season 29[sic], and I thought he was cute when I saw him on TV. Then we met in real life at a Grassroot Soccer charity soccer tournament hosted by Ethan Zohn, winner of Survivor: Africa. And now we have a Survivor baby. It's kind of absurd, really.
What is one way that playing Survivor changed your life? It opened up the competitive beast within, and it also gave me the opportunity to host TV shows, travel around the world as a journalist, and take pics with really excited fans at airports. I played three seasons when I was in my 20s and then processed my experiences for the last decade. I think the main reason that I am able to help people with my work as a life coach and yoga teacher is because I came through such intense experiences playing and winning Survivor and then afterward with the criticism and reality TV fame. I know what it's like to go after a goal with everything I have. I know in my bones how hard it is to be judged and found lacking. I know the sting of betrayal, and I also know that miracles happen all the time. No matter what it looks like, there is a way through every block.
As Survivor approaches Season 40 and celebrates 20 years on television, what does it mean to be a part of the legacy? I am pumped. I thought I was done, but this opportunity to compete with the best of the best is too good to pass up. The game has changed. It's faster, more complex, and people are bolder. I'm excited to get into this more dynamic arena and win a totally new game.

How will you play differently than you have in your past seasons? I'm sure I will be targeted again right away, like I was on Heroes vs. Villains. So, this time I will have to take into consideration that I may be on the outside looking in at first. There also may be some people playing with me that I have history with—probably not good history—and I will have to clear my mind and see them as totally new, like we're meeting for the first time. I plan to be more aggressive and sneaky in hunting idols, distributing misinformation, letting other people lead and take credit, and really play up that I'm a new mom. I'm definitely not in as good of physical shape as I was the last few times I played, but I have a new stamina and capacity that comes from knowing that I can survive six months of sleep deprivation with a newborn. And, I know that I can connect with people in a completely different way as a mother.[4]

Parvati – USA

Instagram: @pshallow

The Queen of Survivor and also known as The Black Widow, Parvati is Survivor royalty after playing four times already and winning once.

Playing Survivor since 2006, Parvati knows the game and her reputation for being one of the best players out there, saying, "I played four seasons, and I think I was a standout in every one. Not to toot my own horn but I really made a name for myself in the story of Survivor. When I won, I did so by being the black widow – bringing the women together and blindsiding the men.

"I think I might be the most dangerous player out here because I think I will be underestimated and overestimated simultaneously."

Knowing the level of competition will be high when she’s up against the best around the world but it’s a challenge Parvati is ready for. She says there’s not a lot of space to hide in a quick 16-day game.

"This is my fifth game, it’s going to be hard, the level of competition is really high. This sassy bad girl can’t hide but I’m fearless and I’m willing to do whatever it takes."[5]

Cook Islands[]

Main article: Parvati Shallow/Cook Islands

A member of the Rarotonga tribe in all of its iterations, Parvati used flirtation to form strong alliances which helped her make the merge. Once the Aitutonga tribe was formed, Parvati was relegated in the minority along with allies Adam Gentry and Candice Woodcock following the betrayal of Jonathan Penner. In an effort to save herself, Parvati convinced the leader of the Aitu Four, Yul Kwon, to eliminate Jonathan before herself and Adam in exchange for their jury votes. Despite getting her way, she was the penultimate member of her alliance to be voted out because she was believed to be a bigger threat than Adam.

Micronesia[]

Main article: Parvati Shallow/Micronesia

Fully embracing her flirtatious skills, Parvati further weaponized her feminine charm. Initially, she formed the Malakal Couples Alliance; a Final Three deal with Amanda Kimmel and Cirie Fields; and, later, the Black Widow Brigade, which was best known for orchestrating a long streak of successful blindside votes and eliminating all of the men. Cited as the leader of the Black Widow Brigade, Parvati was crowned as Sole Survivor; however, she received harsh criticism from the men she led voting out, notably James Clement and fellow Cook Islands castmate Ozzy Lusth.

Heroes vs. Villains[]

Main article: Parvati Shallow/Heroes vs. Villains

Following her notoriety in Micronesia, Parvati returned in Heroes vs. Villains as a member of the Villains tribe and with one of the biggest targets, forcing her to make an uneasy alliance with Russell Hantz. After a hasty move by Tyson Apostol—who was a member of the majority alliance—Parvati and Russell slowly took control of the Villains tribe and eventually made the merge, where Parvati masterminded a well-coordinated scheme to outplay and wipe out the Heroes. While already established as a strategist and a social player, Parvati also proved to be a formidable physical player by dominating in challenges. Parvati made it to the Final Tribal Council along with Russell and Sandra Diaz-Twine, where she was praised for her overall physical prowess, and overall gracious personality. However, she was chastised for aligning herself to Russell, who had a hostile relationship with the jury. In the end, Parvati received three votes to win but ultimately lost to Sandra.

Winners at War[]

Main article: Parvati Shallow/Winners at War

Now a Survivor legend and a mother, Parvati played a more conservative game by aligning with fellow "old-school" winners Danni Boatwright, Ethan Zohn and Rob Mariano. Following a series of unfortunate events—such as her tribe's losing streak, the early elimination of her allies, and being outnumbered following a tribe switch—Parvati's reputation finally caught up with her, as she was voted out on Day 16 and sent to the Edge of Extinction. Although Parvati endured the hardships that came with living on the Edge, she ultimately failed to win either return challenge and was eliminated from the game on Day 35 and served as a member of the jury.

Australian Survivor: Australia v The World[]

Main article: Parvati Shallow/Australian Survivor: Australia v The World

With 18 years of Survivor experience, Parvati navigated a fast-paced game against veterans from Australian Survivor and other franchises without receiving a single vote against her. Reuniting with fellow Black Widow Brigade member Cirie, she formed new alliances when needed and excelled in endurance challenges to reach the Final Three. Despite her deceptive game, Parvati's gameplay impressed the jury the most, winning her second Sole Survivor title.
