Of the many prerequisites, written or otherwise, for being a contestant on the hit CBS reality show Survivor, not being squeamish must be at or near the top of the list. Christa Hastie knows this full well, having eaten fish eyeballs among other things during her stint on the show’s seventh season (she finished in sixth place). You can’t be shy about being scantily clad either, and while Christa stopped short of pulling a Richard Hatch and getting totally naked (“I was engaged at the time and didn’t want to shock my fiancée’s family,” she says) she was happy to disrobe for Playboy now that she’s married and “all cozy” with her in-laws. Currently a special events planner in Los Angeles, Christa helped stage the Survivor 10-year reunion at CBS Television City. “Keeping up with 290 people with ADD is a tough job, but someone has to do it!”
