AGATHE: Thank you!
Being in the Top 2 with Chloe in the finale, how confident did you feel about your chances?
When it came down to final, final ranking, I absolutely thought I had no chance whatsoever.

I had Chloe, but I also couldn’t figure out how close Chloe was with River and Courtney.
So throughout the entire game, I still felt like a wild card with her.
She was calling Emily [played by Jack] her best friend for a while.
So I didn’t know exactly where I stood with her.
It seems like it was a mixture of people ranking with their head and their heart.
Looking back now, how do evaluate their choices?
I feel like everybody else was strategic about it.
I was on Reddit and the show’s subreddit
Me too, girl!
I’ve been seeing everything online.
Do you have any regrets?
If I was to ever do another competition game like that, I would do things differently.
I would give a shot to build alliances in the beginning.
But I don’t regret anything, obviously.
And for people to like you for who you are as a person deep down inside.
I mean, that’s fine with me!
It took me to the end, girl, I’m not gonna complain.
Speaking of another reality show, I saw someone ask you on Twitter aboutThe Challenge.
Is that something you’d do in the future?
I was like, “Of course, I will definitely do it.”
I’m competitive; Trevor’s competitive too.
And that show, we’ve been watching for years.
Would you doit with Trevor or by yourself?
We’ll see, the problem is we have our daughter.
We can’t both be away from her.
So one of us would probably have to go.
Either he goes, and then I can go or vice versa, or whatever.
We compete against each other all the time.
So both of us would definitely go, no questions about it.
Are you still in touch with your other cast members?
We’re all in a group chat; we all talk every single day.
We’re all really good friends.
People have done so much worse in real life for less money.
It’s great; I made lifelong friends.
Will the real Trevor ever meet Mitchell or Chloe, in real life?
Oh, I can’t wait for him to meet Chloe.
I am living for that moment.
Oh my God, it’s gonna be uncomfortable for both of them.
I’m just gonna be sitting there like [laughing].
Mitchell, they actually spoke; they haven’t met at all yet.
How far do you think you would’ve made it, had you come intoThe Circleas yourself?
I think someway, somehow, I would have been dragged into some throw in of drama.
I think for a guy, it’s just so much easier to remove yourself out of that.
And I’m just like, “Oh, that’s girl drama.
That’s a girl fight, I don’t know.”
So I definitely think I would have gotten out at least midway.
There was definitely a lot of drama this season.
What moment inThe Circlehad you the most shook?
I just started seeing them throwing jabs at each other.
I was like, “Oh, s—, what the hell is going on?”
She also did it because that was part of her gameplay."
So that made me feel a little bit better.
[Laughs]
In your group chat, are Terilisha and Savannah doing okay?
Savannah and Terilisha, they’re both amazing, beautiful women.
They’re very strong.
They’re very independent and opinionated.
I can’t speak for them.
So I talked to Savannah and I’ve talked to Terilisha.
I don’t know what they do when they’re not talking to me.
[Pulling out notebook] Yes, what do I have here?
“I am Trevor,” that’s the first thing I have at the top.
I have his tattoos.
I have haircuts, clothing, different types of sneakers that he wears, beer and alcohol.
Different types of cars, because I don’t know much about cars.
Oh now, the sports sections are crazy.
I have all the sports: NBA, NFL, MLB.
Old school players, baseball, their rules, how you play the game.
I have workout information.
And I still have more.
Do you think that’s valid or an overreaction?
Yeah, I’ve seen that a lot.
I definitely think they’re overreacting.
And I mean, I get it, being who you are is near and dear to your heart.
I’m a whole feminist; I know girls can do anything a guy can do and better.
What’s your advice for the next season of players?
Don’t worry about looking mean or playing a game; being strategic.
You’re coming in to get money, and that should be your main focus.
But as much as you’re free to be, venture to be yourself.
So be yourself, have fun, but play that game because you comin' for the money!
I mean, I hope.
