Bob The Drag Queen
RuPaul’s Drag Race
Although Bob The Drag Queen may not be as well-known as some of the othercompetitors onThe Traitorsseason 3, his run as a Traitor is going to be iconic. Bob, known for his win onRuPaul’s Drag Raceseason 8,has the flair for the dramatics that make a Traitor successful in the game. While some have already started to consider him as an option to bring up at the round table, Bob has been great at deflecting and will likely continue to do well if he doesn’t push his fellow Traitors to play for his personal gain.
Carolyn Wiger
Survivor
Although she was one of the most emotional players onSurvivor44,Carolyn Wiger may be one of the more interesting Traitorsof the season. Hopeful to have her chance to lie her way through the game, Carolyn was hoping to be selected as a Traitor and got her wish during the first round table of the season. While Carolyn was known for her eccentricities onSurvivor,her inability to conceal her emotions could lead to herdownfall in this game ofThe Traitors.
“Boston” Rob Mariano
AlthoughSurvivorlegend “Boston” Rob Marianowasn’t initially brought into the game by the rest of the cast,he entered the game after the first round table’s conclusion and was immediately made a Traitor. Getting sprung on the Traitors after the first banishment of the season, Rob was someone that the rest of the group wasn’t sure about at first, but his ability to move through the competition socially was impressive. Having Rob on the side ofThe Traitorsis the best-case scenario for the group at this early stage of the game.
