Newly-crowned ‘Survivor’ winner Savannah Louie isn’t mad at Kristina Mills for calling out her social game during the final tribal council, when she failed to name family members of their fellow season 49 players to prove that she had forged a genuine relationship with them during the competition. "Honestly, it was a great question from her," Savannah told E! News in an exclusive interview following her victory. "I have a lot of respect for her for coming at me in that bold way, because I was a very bold player." Still, Savannah said Kristina’s comment "scarred" her and she quickly adjusted her strategy to a "socially conscious" one for ‘Survivor 50: In the Hands of the Fans,’ which was filmed immediately after her win. "The No. 1 thing on my mind as I set foot on that beach for 50 was, ‘I gotta remember everybody’s family’s names,’" Savannah explained. "So, I asked multiple times about people’s lives, husbands, children. I tried to use their names in a sentence so I could get it ingrained in my brain." ‘Survivor 50’ premieres Feb. 26, 2026, on CBS.
