'Survivor: One World' Cast: Meet The Contestants (PHOTOS)

Eighteen new contestants will compete for $1 million in Season 24 of "Survivor."

In "Survivor: One World," the 18 new contestants, including an ex-NFL wife, a model and a college student, will be split in two tribes of nine based on gender: the Salani Tribe and the Manono Tribe. The tribes are named after the islands in Samoa. It wouldn't be a new season of "Survivor" without a twist: The two tribes will live together on the same beach and potentially share resources. Be on the lookout for possible inter-tribe alliances.

The new season -- with Jeff Probst returning as host -- kicks off on Wed., Feb. 15 at 8 p.m. EST on CBS.

Take a look at the new cast below.

What I have questioned from season one is the prize money. They claim that just 1st and 2nd place win money. If that is true why do people compete so hard for 5th through 10th place. They would not be so gracious when voted off if they weren't promised some kind of payout. There has got to be more than just good sportsmanship involved. Does anybody know how people are paid for the place they finish on the show?

Prizes

The player chosen as Sole Survivor receives a cash prize of $1,000,000 (prior to taxes).[13] The Sole Survivor also receives a car provided by the show's sponsor, except in Survivor: Cook Islands. In a few seasons, the final players have also agreed to play for the tribe flag or other representative object from camp.

In addition, the final five or six contestants may have the opportunity to compete for a car. The winner of this challenge has never won the game, leading to the concept of a "Survivor car curse".[14]

Every player receives a prize for participating on Survivor depending on how long he or she lasts in the game. In most seasons, the runner-up receives $100,000, and third place wins $85,000. Sonja Christopher, the first player voted off in Survivor: Borneo, received $2,500.[15] The prize was increased for Survivor: All-Stars. The known prizes for Survivor: All-Stars were as follows: 2nd = $250,000; 3rd = $125,000; 4th = $100,000. Tina Wesson, the first player voted off in Survivor: All-Stars, received $25,000. In Survivor: Fiji, the first season with tied runners-up, the two runners-up received US$100,000 each, and Yau-Man Chan received US$60,000 for his 4th place finish.[16] The prizes for other seasons with more than sixteen contestants are unknown.

All players also receive an additional $10,000 for their appearance on the reunion show.[17]

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH SOME OF THE OTHER COMMENTS ABOUT EVERYBODY BEING BEAUTIFUL AND PROBABLY MONEY IN THEIR POCKET. I DON'T MEAN TO NOT ALLOW ANYONE LIKE THAT, BUT LOOK AROUND, NOT EVERYBODY LOOKS LIKE THESE PEOPLE. LET SOME OF THE REAL WORLD PLAY,EVERYBODY NEEDS A CHANCE ,YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE A ROCKET SCIENTIST TO PLAY THE GAME!!! COME ON, BE FAIR,OKAY?

Not an ugly nor out-of-shape one in the bunch. Marketing at its finest!! If they were representative of REAL people it would be more interesting. Of course most of us know that the old "outplay, outlast, outsmart" is totally bogus for selecting a winner because it's about popularity not REAL survival. I haven't watched it since Russell.

Wow. Every gal a hottie and even the older guy is buff.

Someday I would like to see this show try a different geographic location.

How come the majority of the contestants are from CA? And I so wish they would bring it back to the original, when you came with the clothes on your back and that's it!

I shall correct myself, actually counted, only 5 from CA. Seemed like more when first looking.

Haven't watched it since season one, when it became very apparent that this was not about survival skills but instead about scheming and lying.I can get that at home.

Remember when Survivor had more than modern versions of Barbie and Ken on the show? but people of all ages, sizes, shapes, colors, and backgrounds? Once upon a time, life wasn't just about pretty people..
