Quote
"I like just hanging with my mates and going to hot parties and so on. I dislike people who are loud and disorderly. Disorder is a big thing to me; I don't like it when people are untidy.
"My philosophy in life is to always try new things and never to be defeated by people who say that you can't.
"In my spare time I love cooking and entertaining at my place. I love playing Rugby as well, but I think I might have mentioned that earlier.
"I entered Fear Factor because it was up there on my to-do list and I think that it's a fantastic challenge. I'm looking forward to competing with conviction and aggression.
"I would describe myself as emotional to a point, but definitely an introvert and a very practical person who just goes with the flow. I think that everyone who enters Fear Factor has their own edge, they just have to find it for themselves.
"My worst fear on the show, I think, will have to be the gogga's. They're going to take quite some doing.
"The most physical thing I've ever done is running the surfer's marathon and going quad biking and sand boarding in Mozambique. My greatest achievement in life is buying my own place at such a young age. As a comforter I think that I would take my rugby ball to bootcamp.
"My favourite films are 'The Godfather II' and 'Scent of a Woman' as I'm a huge Al Pacino fan. My favourite food is a breakfast dish called a mixed grill served at Cubana in Cape Town.
"In the few episodes of last season's show that I saw I was disgusted by all the crying. All that bonding stuff didn't work for me at all!"
