In an interview with TVGuide.com, booted 'Survivor' contestant Wanda Shirk alleges that the producers of the popular CBS reality series deliberately stacked the 'Palau' season with professional models culled from agencies.

"They (the producers) didn't want it to come out that they stocked the show with young models. They did. Out of the 20 people that were originally cast, they cut seven and put pretty people from modeling agencies in instead, so that they would have the eye candy," Shirk told TVGuide.com.

Shirk, a 55-year-old English teacher from Pennsylvania, claims the other players discovered the information when they talked to each other about what they did for their audition tapes. Shirk says many of the players admitted they never submitted an audition tape to appear on the series.

When contacted by Jam! Showbiz, CBS stated that they were aware of Shirk’s allegations and completely refute them.

Along with Jonathan Libby, Shirk was eliminated from the series on the debut episode when she was not chosen during a brutal schoolyard pick ‘em to determine the two competing tribes. Leaving by boat, Shirk and Libby didn’t even have a chance to play the game.

In order to be cast on the series, players do sign a contract which contains a privacy clause which restricts their discussion about the series and its inner workings.
