SEYCHELLE CORDERO:Oh, you are ready!
COLLIDER: Let’s start simple.
If you could describe your experience in three words, what would they be?

SEYCHELLE: If I could explain my experience in three words, what would it be?
I had a fun time.
This is f– hard.
Can’t believe this is the f– hardest question I’v been asked all f– day.
It’s difficult for three words.
I’m gonna say very fun, once in a lifetime, and really overcoming my fears.

I know that’s not three words, but it’s three statements.
COLLIDER: I’m here for it.
COLLIDER: I like that.
What was it like being out there on the Banker’s Private Island?
I mean, it looked stunning.
SEYCHELLE: It was cool.
I mean, I’ve said it before.It’s not my typical ideaof a vacation, right?
I’m very happy that there was bug spray and air conditioning.
I will say that much.
COLLIDER: Listen, that would be my thing, too.
My friends are, like, ‘You should trySurvivor.’
I need the air conditioning.
I wouldn’t survive.
SEYCHELLE: No, I totally f– feel you.
That bitch gonna send herself home.
That’s the only reason why I’d do it.
COLLIDER: Speaking ofSurvivor, we had aSurvivorlegend or two.
What was it like having these reality stars out there as competitors?
SEYCHELLE: Well, I didn’t know sh– aboutDavid [Genet].
The second I saw I was just like, “This is some f– bullsh–, bro.
This is this f– whack.”
Because I watch reality TV.
I watch reality competition TV.
There’s typically, when it comes to people like this, typically everyone’s not gunning for them.
Do you know she is?"
But wanted her out.Dr.
Was that part of your strategy to speak your mind?
SEYCHELLE: When need be.
There are a million things that are always running through my mind.
I totally stand by it.
I love that about me.
So I’m just like, you’re not.
You know what I’m saying?
Seychelle Discusses CK
COLLIDER: Do you think your fellow competitors saw you as a social threat?
COLLIDER: That’s the beauty of your game!
SEYCHELLE: Oh, my God.
I mean, I love that for me.
You hate the elements."
And I’m just like, ‘Yeah…" You know what I’m saying?
I’m running from tent to tent.
People, they open up to me.
A lot of people see me as someone really easy to talk to and everything.
But I knew that that would be really phenomenal for my game.
COLLIDER: The Family.
They were the big threat on the island.
What made them the threat?
Was it having these two strategic masterminds at the jump?
I think it’s the sheer audacity in that.
COLLIDER: Let’s talk about the excursion.
Certainly, probably a little bit of buyer’s remorse now.
But do you stand by not jumping?
If I would have done anything else differently.
There are times when I think about, oh, like, should I have played?
And I’m just like, no, that could have possibly changed the whole trajectory of the game.
COLLIDER: There’s a word that keeps coming up this season, and that word is integrity.
Why do you need integrity to play this game?
SEYCHELLE: Honey, I don’t f– know!
Sorry, but not sorry.
I’m here to win.
Okay, I want to change my life.
I’m 31, and I deserve to live a hot girl lifestyle.
I don’t care what the f– you have going on.
If you want to do that, that’s fine.
That’s not the game that I’m playing.
COLLIDER: CK: Wild card, or, as Philip called her, a human tornado.
Why was she a threat to everyone?
Is it because she was such a wild card, and you didn’t know what she would do?
SEYCHELLE: I think that’s what it was.
It was a lot.
It was very overwhelming, but I did want to know what was on her mind?
I think that’s why she was seen as a threat, because she was very erratic.
Parvati Shallow is known for her game-play and it is surprising her ‘Deal or No Deal Island’ costars.
Does Seychelle Have Any Regrets About ‘Deal Or No Deal Island?’
COLLIDER: Let’s start talking about the cheating scandal that rocked the island.
What was it like watching her do it out in the open, in front of your eyes?
SEYCHELLE: I’ve said it before.
I just think it was really corny.
Joe’s literally looking down at you, and you’re looking into the case.
You know what I’m saying?
Just sometimes you really gotta sit cute and be quiet.
We’re not gonna run this back week to week to week to week.
Like, play your own f– game.
You know what I’m saying?
I just think all of that was really f– stupid.
COLLIDER: Was her final move to save herself really blowing up everyone’s game at the Temple?
Did she have any other cards to play?
I mean, no.
She’s very heavy on the “should I do this?”
You know what I’m saying?
Do your thing."
Then she was like, “Alright, then maybe I should.”
COLLIDER: Why you?
Why was she afraid of you?
SEYCHELLE: Maybe because I was able to convince her to give me her immunity.
I think about that, I know that after that, she was very upset.
I still trust you, buddy.
I still trust you."
I wouldn’t have given a f–.
Maybe she thought that was just the best move there.
So maybe she felt like, “Okay, this would hurt them.”
I don’t think very wise on her end, but…
COLLIDER: Not at all, no.
Let’s end on a positive.
The best moment of myDeal Or No Deal Islandexperience was blank.
SEYCHELLE: Honestly, probably getting eliminated and able to enjoy the vacation on the island afterwards.
I had a Five Star time!
COLLIDER:MG [Cook]said it was a rage for everybody.
Y’all had a great time.
SEYCHELLE: Oh, my God, we literally did.
And there’s a really phenomenal, wonderful twist at the end of the show.
I don’t regret a damn thing.
I am so pleased.
COLLIDER: I can’t wait to see what happens next.
Congratulations on a great season.
You are absolutely a joy to watch.
SEYCHELLE: Thank you so much.
