There is a grade-A mean girl on Survivor and I loathe her. Not in a love to hate way, just hate. She's the worst high school mean girl you ever knew and I may have to quit this show.

Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."
