Tuesday October 29, 2024, TF1 broadcast a new episode of Koh-Lanta, The Cursed Tribe. And surprise! At the end of the evening when the competing adventurers advanced in pairs, there was no elimination. Indeed, Cassandra and Maxim were surprised to discover that they were joining the cursed island and then eventually re-entering the game. In an exclusive interview for Purepeoplethe 23-year-old writer returns to this last advice and reveals why her comrade Maxim ultimately chose not to play with her immunity necklace.
When the pairs were announced, what was your wish?
We don't have much time to imagine anything. Because Denis Brogniart tells us that it's pairs week and then the draw takes place straight away. But obviously, I hoped not to end up with an ex-red because we were in the minority, I knew that could put me in danger. I would have liked to be with Ilyesse, Thibault or Jacques.
How did you experience being in a duo with Maxim?
I wasn't very calm. From the start, I told myself we would be targeted. I had a bad experience with it at first. Then afterwards, when Maxim told me that he had found a necklace, things were much better, I felt reassured. It was a bit of a roller coaster for me.
Why do you think he didn't use his immunity necklace?
For me, he didn't play it because he had his brain twisted by Jacques. All day long, Jacques told him that he no longer got along with girls, that he was really angry and upset. Maxim believed him. For my part, I had my brain twisted by Gustin. He told me: “Don't worry, we're all voting against Jacques with the ex-yellows.” Both Maxim and I trusted someone who lied to us.
Finally, when you leave the council, you discover that the adventure is perhaps not over… What was going through your head at that moment?
I'm super super shocked. Already leaving with a necklace is really shameful, we must not lie to ourselves. So we were super disappointed, super sad. Then when we see the note that tells us that the adventure is perhaps not over, it gives me hope. I have no idea what will happen but I quickly understand that there may be a chance for me and that I must seize it! I am suddenly very, very happy.
How do you experience the broadcast of Koh Lanta ?
The broadcast is going well. My loved ones recognize me well, even in my reactions. I'm still quite sensitive, so when I cry it doesn't surprise them that much. They are proud of me and happy to see that I am still here after all this time.
