Danielle Reyes Final Traitors Interview
Welcome to RHAP’s coverage of ALL the Traitors iterations from around the world, including New Zealand, Australia, and Canada. The Traitors US is a high-stakes reality competition set in a secluded castle, where contestants must work together to complete challenges and earn a prize pot—while rooting out the secret traitors hidden among them.
Today, Rob Cesternino and Pooya sit down with Danielle to dive deep into her strategic gameplay, relationships with other players, and how she adapted her famous “human lie detector” skills for a new format.
Danielle offers candid insights into her Traitors strategy, including her controversial decision to swear on her grandkids as a bluffing tactic. She breaks down her choice to play a more nervous, emotional character to throw off suspicion, as well as her complex relationship with fellow Big Brother alum Britney. Danielle also shares a clever code word strategy she used to secretly communicate her Traitor status to her husband back home.
Rob, Pooya, and Danielle discuss:
– Danielle’s approach to playing against both Faithfuls and fellow Traitors
– Her read on players like Carolyn, Dylan and Gabby
– Reflections on her Big Brother legacy and how it impacted her Traitors game
– Behind-the-scenes stories, including a hilarious tale about Ethan Zohn ordering pickles
– Danielle’s thoughts on potential future reality TV appearances
