XFINITY.com is the place to be for all of your “Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen-X” needs. We’ll have interviews with all twenty of the new players to hold you over until the season starts. Then we’ll have full episode recaps, interviews with the players after they’ve been eliminated, and the return of the ever-popular “Survivor” Power Rankings. Follow me on Twitter (@gordonholmes) for up-to-the-minute news.

Name (Age): Jessica “Figgy” Figueroa (23)

Current Residence: Nashville, TN

Occupation: Bartender

Hobbies: Kayaking, videography, and watching football.

Pet Peeves: When people are lazy and expect things to just happen. That’s not what life is about. Get up and fight.

Three Words to Describe You: Adventurous, free spirit, and crowd pleaser.

NOTE: Usually I get a good thirty minutes with each contestant before the game starts. However, this season I had to get through all 20 players in only two-and-a-half hours. So, these pieces will be short and hopefully sweet.

Gordon Holmes: Why’d you make the big move to Tennessee?

Jessica Figueroa: Honestly, I got out of a huge breakup a couple of years ago and I wanted to live in a new city…my sister lived there.

Holmes: How’s it working out for you?

Figueroa: I love it. There’s always places to go and people to meet. It’s always fun and always happening.

Holmes: Bartending seems like a good skill to have when you go on “Survivor.” You meet a ton of different people, you have to know how to make them happy.

Figueroa: Oh for sure, bartending you’re making connections non-stop, whether you’re making a regular base or you’re trying to get them in and out of there quickly.

Holmes: You mentioned leading your tribe which isn’t always the best strategy.

Figueroa: (Laughs) Well, I have a couple of different strategies in my mind. I’ve always been a leader in life. But, I want to sit back and see all the roles of the people on the tribe. I’m looking forward to seeing where I fit in.

Holmes: You were bullied non-stop as a child?

Figueroa: Yes.

Holmes: That’s something we’ve seen a lot recently on “Survivor.” Obviously you don’t want to bully or be bullied, but what if you witness bullying?

Figueroa: If you’re in my alliance I’m going to for sure say something. I think it’s because I’m a people person and having been through it. I don’t allow bullying to happen.

Holmes: What did being bullied teach you?

Figueroa: I have really thick skin now. At this point in my life, it can’t affect me. I’m there to get the job done and win a million dollars. But, I won’t put up with being attacked.

Holmes: So, I should not attack you.

Figueroa: (Laughs) No.

Holmes: It wasn’t on my to-do list, but it’s good to know.

Figueroa: Take your best shot!

Holmes: Do you have any problems lying in the game?

Figueroa: I can tell a couple of white lies. I don’t lie a lot in my real life. I have a huge heart. I’ll snake my way around lying. I’ll do some backstabbing.

Holmes: Some honest backstabbing.

Figueroa: (Laughs) Yes.

Holmes: How about flirting?

Figueroa: For sure. In my life I’ve been handed a lot based on my looks.

Holmes: Me too, Jessica.

Figueroa: (Laughs) But, I’m more than a pretty face and I’m looking forward to showing that.

Holmes: Is there anyone at home who will be annoyed if they see you flirting?

Figueroa: Not at all. 100% single.

Holmes: And ready to mingle.

Figueroa: (Laughs)

Holmes: How well do you deal with being lied to?

Figueroa: I’ll turn that situation around real quick and make them regret lying to me.

Holmes: How about hunger?

Figueroa: I can deal with it, for sure. I went to Haiti and had to deal with not eating all the time. I’m good with it.

Holmes: Lack of sleep?

Figueroa: I can deal with it. I have long nights at work where I’ve gotten home at five and had to work a double the next day.

Holmes: Extreme temperatures?

Figueroa: I think my body will handle it just fine. (Laughs) It was hot in Haiti…I’m trying to correlate it.

Holmes: How well do you deal with paranoia?

Figueroa: I don’t get that paranoid, honestly. In “Survivor” you’re looking out for number one.

Holmes: Any early thoughts on the other players?

Figueroa: Not really, I saw some of them at casting. I’ve been flirting, batting my eyes. We’ll see how it goes.

Holmes: If there is a twist, what do you think it could be?

Figueroa: We’re at Season 33. It’s been a long time since there’s been an all-girl tribe. Maybe Redemption Island or Exile Island. The season that’s going on right now is Brawns/Brains/Beauty, so I don’t think they’d do that.

Holmes: If you could align with any past player, who would it be?

Figueroa: This is super hard because I admire Parvati’s (Shallow) game so much. But, I would never align with her unless I was in Amanda’s (Kimmel) shoes. But even then I would’ve taken her out. I would’ve taken Cirie (Fields). I kind of like Ozzy (Lusth), for sure. He’s good at what he does. He supplies the tribe. And I could manipulate him. He fell for Amanda.

Holmes: Lightning round time. Cats or dogs?

Figueroa: Dogs.

Holmes: Beer or wine?

Figueroa: Wine.

Holmes: Superman or Batman?

Figueroa: Batman.

Holmes: Meat or vegetables?

Figueroa: Meat.

Holmes: Republican or Democrat?

Figueroa: Democrat.

Holmes: Books or TV?

Figueroa: TV.

Holmes: Swimming or sunbathing?

Figueroa: Sunbathing.

Holmes: Many casual friends or one good friend?

Figueroa: One good friend.

Holmes: A nice car or a nice home?

Figueroa: A nice home.

Holmes: Smart or funny?

Figueroa: Funny.

Holmes: Parvati or Boston Rob?

Figueroa: Ooooo…that’s so hard! I’ll go with Parvati.

Holmes: Big vacation or a big TV?

Figueroa: Big vacation.

Holmes: Working alone or with a team?

Figueroa: Working alone.

Holmes: Dragons or unicorns?

Figueroa: Dragons.

Holmes: Careful planning or fly by the seat of your pants?

Figueroa: Fly by the seat of my pants.

Holmes: Jeff Probst or Ryan Seacrest?

Figueroa: (Laughs) Jeff Probst!

Holmes: Alright, dude. Break a leg out there.

Figueroa: I’m going to break some other people’s legs.

Holmes: That’s sick.

Figueroa: (Laughs)

Holmes: Figuratively!

Figueroa: Yes!
