Aubry Bracco won't talk about her first time playingSurvivor

Aubry Bracco doesnt want to talk about her first-time playingSurvivor.

If anybodys still talking about it, I hope theyre staying warm in that horse.

I want to play the game I played in the season I will not talk about, says Aubry.

SURVIVOR

Timothy Kuratek/CBS

I will just call it Leonardo DiCaprio.

I want to own everything I do.

I know what Im capable of.

I dont need to look for external validation.

Ive found it in myself.

I want to go for what I want, and I know I have the skills to do it.

By her own admission, she is scarred by her previous outings.

But she also lasted 76 out of a possible 78 days playing two very different styles of play.

With adaptability being the key toSurvivorsuccess, Aubry could have what it takes to finally seal the deal.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Okay, Aubry.

Why are you coming back?

Thats definitely part of it.

Maybe Im a glutton for punishment, but I loveSurvivor.

I felt likeSurvivor: Game Changerswas not the second chance that I wanted to have.

I was very much blindfolded from the beginning.

I dont know if thats true.

So you think there is a mix of new players and returning players this season.

How do I do that?

I think that I have the wisdom to understand the tides inSurvivorand where they shift.

There are times when people are afraid.

When people are afraid, I want to be their therapist.

I want to comfort them.

When people are desperate, cause people often feel desperate, I want to be their savior.

When people are feeling calm, like everythings fine, thats when Im gonna stir it up.

Thats what I did inKaoh Rong.

I waited for just the right moment to pounce on Scott and Jason, and take away Tai.

Lets take the flip-side of that.

Why is she here?

Why is she coming in on our season?

He did make it work.

I can see people having ownership of, This is my time.

This is my limelight.

Why are you here?

Some people would say, Oh, thats comforting.

I love your numbers, Dalton.

Have fun with your numbers, but I still feel nervous.

You dont know whats going out there.

You dont know who youre with.

I do not want to fall in that 100-minus-28-point-whatever-percent.

When its an individual game, I love that, cause thats all the one-on-one, intricate stuff.

You traveled with Joe Anglim out here so you know hes playing.

We would sleep next to each other every night.

I felt very comfortable with her, but it just never happened.

All right, lets be real.

Did you guys talk about that?

I mean, everyone knows that returning players talk before they come out.

Did you guys discuss?We did not.

Not at all?Nope.

If anybodys still talking about it, I hope theyre staying warm in that horse.

I took time off from work.

I moved from corporate America to a very scrappy entrepreneurial job.

I now work for Cousins Maine Lobster, which got its start onShark Tank.

Go to the ping-pong table, play a few rounds, and find a way around the problem.

I can talk bro now, is what I like to say.

I work with a bunch of guys who are these scrappy entrepreneurs on a food truck.

I have broken up with someone I was with for about five years.

That was a huge life change.

I want to go pop around, buzz around, and not take anything too seriously.

You said, Because I shouldve won the first time.

There, I said it.

Usually, people may think that, but they wont say that.
