Natalie White wins 'Survivor,' collects $1M prize

An out-of-work pharmaceuticals saleswoman is the winner of the CBS reality television show "Survivor: Samoa."

Van Buren, Ark., resident Natalie White won the $1 million prize Sunday night by outwitting, outplaying and outlasting an oil company owner and a doctor in the final episode.

The 26-year-old White was accused by jury members of riding the coattails of Dayton, Texas, oil millionaire Russell Hantz, who finished second. She says she recognized early in the game that aggressive women were being eliminated and she had to maintain a low profile.

Hantz was the mastermind behind most eliminations and was thought by some players to be a shoo-in for the win.

Los Angeles doctor Mick Trimming was the third finalist.

George Clooney’s “Bad Date” With Madonna

George Clooney reportedly went a date with Madonna after she split with Guy Ritchie but the date turned out to be a “really bad” one.

The “Ocean’s Thirteen actor, who is currently dating Italian TV presenter Elisabetta Canalis, was reportedly set up with the pop icon through a mutual friend. George gave the date a try after figuring out that Madonna is a smart and accomplished woman.

The celebrity pair went out for dinner in New York, but it turned out really bad. Madonna was believed to be making jokes that weren’t at all funny. No real conversation happened between them. George could not wait to get out of the date.
