One of the 16 castaways in the upcoming "Survivor: Tocantins - The Brazilian Highlands" is Tamara "Taj" Johnson-George, member of the Grammy-winning gospel trio SWV - Sisters with Voices.
Singing has never been a part of the competition on "Survivor" - the last woman to sing a lot on the show with an original composition about the reality show, was the first to be voted out one year.
Johnson-George, 37, is wife of a former NFL player, the Heisman Trophy winner and former running back for the Tennessee Titans Eddie George, she is also an author, of the book "Player HateHER: How to Avoid the Beat Down and Live in a Drama Free World."
That may help her more in the game, which starts Feb. 12 on CBS.
