This edition of Koh-Lanta, the legends is special in every way. Besides the fact that this year, only adventurers from previous seasons had the chance to participate in the adventure, some were at the heart of a cheating affair … which has just been relaunched.
Our colleagues from Parisian just revealed that Teheiura (and rumored Claude and Sam) isn’t the only one breaking the rules. Several candidates would have participated in clandestine dinners. “Indeed, in recent weeks,. To date, we have not yet succeeded in gathering enough elements to confirm or deny this information “ALP replied when the media contacted her.
According to the site, “four to five candidates are at the heart of a new case of cheating in an organized gang“. Information that the journalist has from several people present in the survival game of the first channel. But, they wished to remain anonymous, in order not to break the confidentiality clause which binds them to the production and therefore , in order not to deprive oneself of the payment of the confidentiality bonus (of 2000 euros), but especially not to be “owed a sum of 30,000 euros“for fifteen years.
A relative of Claude Dartois would have confirmed the rumor according to which the candidate would have cheated. “In search of food, he was spotted at night by a guard near the technicians’ tent, slips a witness. But he was able to leave more cheaply“, can we read. Allegations to which the main party did not wish to respond.
The outings during the Council would also have been the perfect time for the adventurers accused of cheating to obtain food. Their strategy? Wait for the guards who watched them after the votes to fall asleep to join the Sunset Beach Motel, “a family pension which has six bungalows overlooking the lagoon as well as a large villa overlooking the garden rented to tourists or ex-metropolitans“. They would have gone to visit locals. And a couple would have been particularly generous in proposing “salty, sweet and energy drinks galore“. A ritual that most of the affected candidates performed every three days.
“The priority of the participants is to find food by all means. Even more on an all-stars. When they are hungry, they do not care about possible sanctions. The real legend of this season is Ugo. He might have liked to be in the cheating stories, but no one proposed to him!“, concluded an employee of ALP. Revelations which, if they prove to be true, could have a negative repercussion on the image of the adventurers who broke the rules.
As a reminder, the cheating affair first broke out with Teheiura. He was excluded from the game after confessing to Denis Brogniart that he had cheated. He made a sign to fishermen passing by and asked them for food, on two occasions. He ate a dish of “cooked vegetables” during the day and then a “steak and fries” a few hours later. And, on Council Island, he recovered papayas that he later hid in baskets on the roof of his camp, waiting for them to ripen.
