Jennifer Lanzetti likens herself to one of the most dominant women in Survivor history, but can she replicate her success?

Famous 'Survivor' Contestant Found In Possession Of Child Pornography

Jennifer is one of 18 new players competing on Survivor: Kaôh Rōng - Brawn vs. Brains vs. Beauty this spring. As a contractor, Jennifer has been placed on the Brawn tribe.

In her CBS bio, the 38-year-old says the Survivor contestant she is most like is Kim Spradlin, the winner of Survivor: One World. As Jennifer describes, "She had strategy: making as many friends as possible, having alliances and sub-alliances. She was just 'herself,' which is exactly how I play everyday life. I earn respect, like Kim, by telling you how it is. I'm practical but also love the excitement of making big moves."

Jennifer has also led a very complicated life, as she says in her bio. "Coming back to life after endometriosis, cancer and drug addiction, getting my engineering degree and starting my own construction technology company," she says, of personal claims to fame.

She talks about having that life experience when asked why she will win Survivor.

"Winning Survivor takes practice- practice surviving. I've been through hell and back many times. Not saying I never get scared, but I just never let fear stop me," she says. "I will be the final survivor because I have prepared physically, mentally and socially! Winning doesn't take beauty, brains or brawn- it takes heart!"
