Kaleb Gebrewold, a software salesman on the Lulu tribe, and Jacob "Jake" O’Kane, an attorney on Belo, were each rewarded $15,000 by the "Unstoppable" singer.

The 26-year-old entrepreneur from Miami outwitted, outplayed and outlasted her competitors in Fiji for 26 days winning the $1 million prize and the title of Sole Survivor.
