she has said before she wants to be the "Vecepia" of this game(winner of Survivor4)....i think she is alot like vecepiA in that she is more powerful and manipulative than people give her credit for.

Danielle is no Vecepia. You don't even want me to get started on her. Danielle doesn't appear to me to be a hypocrit.

I didn't watch Survivor. Reality Tv was starting to consume me so I had to set some boundaries. Therefore I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about. I do like Dani though. :)

I'm with Sherbear and Missy, I did not care for V very much. In fact, I didn't care for her at all. no

Your not alone, Aloha! Danielle is the only one I really dislike in this game and I hope she gets put on the block soon.

I don't like Danni ( but you've got to respect her since she is playing a great game) and she may be the Vecepia as far as the ultimate winner. Actually its probably Jason who is using the Vecepia strategy of staying under the radar, or is that the Ethan strategy?! :=)

I love Vecepia. Lots of people on other boards I go to didn't like her because she's Christian, which I thought was rather biased of them. Vecepia deserved her win. She played a great game.

I agree I also liked Vee..she was a silent threat the whole way..I like danielle too..and Im tired of people trashing her because she is actually playing a good game!

Did not like V, agree with you, sherbear, she was very hypocritical. The jury is still out on Danielle. She seems to be playing both sides of the rope, however.

IMO there is no such thing as hypocrisy when competing in a contest. All's fair...

Naw, Jason is the Vecepia of BB3, as far as personality and game strategy. All Dani and Vee have in common (as far as I can tell) is their race.

Don't you remember, Truly, V totally disrespected Rosie O'donnell on national television. I've haven't heard 1 word about her since.

As for BB3, It's about time the people who were put up for eviction were threats to the game. Unlike, the last 3 evictions, they were all put up because they were not liked in the house. They were of no threat at all as far as the game goes. Roddy really blew it as HOH

What did V do to Rosie, and why would that be such a bad thing?

I don't know about the Rosie incident either -- do tell.

Dani did comment about being another Vee -- but Dani only meant she hoped to be another black female reality show winner. It's true they share same sex/race/faith -- but really those are too general. I see little similarity between Vee and Dani. I'd liked to see Dani or Jason win though. Actually, I wouldn't mind too much if Gerry or Marc won either.

i can't remember exactly, but, i think she referenced her disagreement with homosexuality. Rosie hardly even spoke to her even though she was the winner. Rosie spoke mostly to Kathy.

Sherbabe..what show was this..because I am a big fan of survivor and taped everythin having to do with survivor..and I remember that Vee never did anything to disrespect Rosie..and Rosie interviewed Vee throughly during the reunion show and her own show..Rosie said her daughters loved Vee and she is so glad she won..I think you are mistaken

Is Survivor's New Winner Anti-Gay?
Friday, May 24, 2002

Now it's starting to make sense. If you detected a little tension between emcee Rosie O'Donnell and Survivor: Marquesas winner Vecepia "Vee" Towery on Sunday night's post-finale reunion show, there may be good reason. While Towery — a fundamentalist Christian — may think God is great, it seems she has a different opinion when it comes to gays.

As the 36-year-old office manager explains to TV Guide Online, she and openly gay contestant John Carroll had a sexual orientation showdown of sorts while playing Survivor. "John told me, 'You realize that I'm openly gay.' And I said, 'Yeah, I kind of figured that. But I have to be honest, based on my spiritual beliefs, I don't agree with the lifestyle. But you, as a person, I have nothing against.'"

Towery — who confesses to having a stepsister who is an out-and-proud lesbian — says Carroll was "initially hurt" by her comments, but adds that "he eventually came around because he proclaims to be a Christian also. He believes that God loves everybody, no matter who you are, and [he's] absolutely right. But then also, the scripture says this, this, this and this. So we hashed it out, and once he saw my position and realized, 'God, Vee, you really do love me and it's really not an issue with you,' he was able to get past it."

We think we know the answer to this next question, but we'll ask it anyway: Does Towery privately hope that Carroll will, um, "get past" his sexual identity? "My hope is that he remains happy, just like my sister," she says. "And if that meant that one day [they] decided to go straight, then I'd be even more happier. But it's not something I'm praying for."

And as far as a possible rift between Towery and a certain openly-sapphic entertainer, it may be much ado about nothing. "Rosie accepts everyone for what they are and I guess would like to have the same in return," says O'Donnell's spokeswoman, Lois Smith. "But she thinks everyone's entitled to their beliefs, so I can't imagine [she would have a problem with Towery]. She certainly has never mentioned it." — Michael Ausiello

I knew there was an aricle about that..because when I was writing my post I wanted to mention the article..There may have been tension..but Vecepia never disrespected Rosie in anyway..so you were somewhat right but you worded it wrong Sherbabe

As far as Vecepia, I don't know, I didn't watch the last Survivor. (Had to cut back on the Reality TV - esp since BB takes up so much time.)

However, from what people are saying, it sounds as though Vecepia played a very good game and won because of it.

Based on this latter comment, I would say that yes, then Dan is a playing a lot like Vec.

But, I think Dan made a HUGE, COSTLY mistake tonight that could very well cost her this game. And, that mistake was giving WAY TOO MUCH information (that Eric is gone if their's a tie) to Chiara during their talk a bit ago in the HRD. She put too much trust into Chiara, thinking Chiara wouldn't spill the beans to Roddy. But, Chiara, several minutes later, spilled to Roddy that if there's a tie, Eric's gone (she couched it as a "feeling" but, Rod's not dumb, he knows something's up.)

So, up until tonight, I would say Dan (and Ja) have been plaing an excellent game. But, not tonight. She NEVER should have let on that Eric was likely to get evicted. Chi, while trying to play this game, is too into Roddy. Because of that, she cannot be trusted.

I have to say, I do not think Dan will win this game now.
