Michelle Yi, 23, a senior at the University of Cincinnati, was selected as participant for Survivor: Fiji.The fine arts will be well represented when the reality show's 14th season rolls around on Feb. 8.
Rita Verreos, 38, a former professional ballerina, is also among the castaways on the South Pacific island. She is the older sister of Project Runway fashion designer Nick Verreos, so maybe she and Yi discussed haute couture to pass the time.
CBS introduced the cast on The Early Show on Friday.
Here's the scoop on Yi from her bio on the Survivor Web site: She is a competitive rock climber who likes '80s pop music, pirates, things that are green, Skyline Chili and video games prefaced with the name Mario.
Filming ended in October, so it's all over but the awarding of the $1 million prize.
