Jeff Probst<\/strong> received backlash for spoiling a key a part of the season 50 finale of Survivor<\/em> \u2014 and now contestant Rizo Velovic<\/strong> is speaking out.<\/p>\n

\u201cSurvivor history!\u201d Velovic, 26, joked during an interview with Entertainment Weekly<\/em><\/a> on Wednesday, May 20. \u201cJeff was on a Variety interview recently saying that he desires to edit Survivor with the person going home after which showing how they go home. And he did it the subsequent day, and it was me! I made Survivor history.\u201d<\/p>\n

Velovic wasn\u2019t upset concerning the on-air flub, adding, \u201cNever been voted out of Survivor, two times playing, only one among 4 people ever that happened to. And likewise the primary finale flub ever in 50 seasons and the RizGod was an element of it. In order that\u2019s what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n

During Wednesday\u2019s finale, Probst, 64, mistakenly referred to Velovic as \u201cthe ultimate member of our jury\u201d in a live segment before the remainder of the fire-making challenge had aired, due to this fact revealing Velovic had lost.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tWhile TV shows and flicks have teams dedicated to creating sure nothing goes unsuitable on the production side, things slip through the cracks occasionally. That\u2019s where fans are available in. Over time, viewers have identified the entertainment industry\u2019s mishaps including the famous Starbucks cup of 2019 that popped up in a [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Probst apologized for the error after the show returned from a business break.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo, I like doing live television. In case you\u2019re confused, that is what happened,\u201d he explained. \u201cWe were going to indicate you fire-making, after which have the loser of fire-making, Rizo, come out and discuss how charming he’s and if he had practiced fire-making, possibly he would have won. As a substitute, we did a Survivor twist. It\u2019s the last twist of the season! It\u2019s called A Peak Into the Future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Velovic, meanwhile, knew immediately that something wasn\u2019t right when he was on stage.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo my understanding was they were under the belief fire already happened,\u201d he told EW. \u201cBut I used to be within the green room saying like, \u2018Wait, I\u2019m waiting for myself to lose here. What are we doing?\u2019 And Jeff\u2019s like, \u2018Bring out RizGod. And so they\u2019re like, \u2018You\u2019re up!\u2019 And I\u2019m like, \u2018OK, I\u2019m gonna work with what we came.\u2019 And clearly doing the perfect RizGod that I do at Tribal.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Velovic recalled just following Probst\u2019s lead. \u201cI\u2019m playing off Jeff, and Jeff is talking about fire and I used to be like: Well, I\u2019m not attempting to reveal it. So I\u2019m like, \u2018Win or lose, I\u2019m happy with how I played,’\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd Jeff\u2019s like, \u2018Sit your ass on the bench.\u2019 And I\u2019m like, \u2018Well, that is awkward.’\u201d<\/p>\n
