J.P.
AGE: 28 when on Survivor
OCCUPTION:Professional Volleyball Player
LIVES: Venice, CA
Aitutaki Tribe Member
JP never made it to the end on Survivor but he did make it with Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency. The only problem was his first gig was on a cover of a gay magazine, not that there is anything wrong with that, but he himself had not come out of the closest yet. So the episode continued to next week where he finally agreed to do the photo shoot and come out of the closest, meaning now his parents would know. A year later JP is doing well with Janice's Modeling Agency so all is well for him as he does poses for many types of cloths and brands while being free and gay at the same time.
