Highlights of The Early Show
Amber gives a glimpse of her engagement ring.
Amber said she was surprised when Rob actually proposed on national TV "I had no clue he had enough guts to stand up in front of 30 million people and do that. I give him a lot of credit". Rob mentions that he told Survivor executive producer Mark Burnett 10 minutes before the show that he was going to propose.
Harry Smith asked Rob if there was any second guessing to his game play. Rob: "Big Toms question to me was, "why should I give you a million dollars". What I wanted to say was, "because I told you to. And youve done everything I told to you do all game long."
Asked if before the show they talked about who would win. Amber and Rob both thought it would be a really close vote and they didn't let it get to them over the last months.
Amber was asked of the two of them who actually deserved to win. Amber said she did not ride Rob's coattails, that Rob has a temper and people tended to blame him.
Amber was asked what Rob is really like in real life: "He's a gentleman".
Rupert was asked about his feelings about All Stars. He replied that All Stars did so much for him. Pearl Islands was hard and he didn't set out to do what he wanted but he made it to end on All Stars with honor.
Harry mentioned that the audience at The Live Finale Show was pro-Rupert.
Jerri finished making her point that she tried to make during the Live Reunion show: If Rob and Amber are truly in love then something good came out of All-Stars.
Julie Chen asked Jerri where she went when she left the Reunion Show and she said that she was backstage with her boyfriend and family.
Sue discussed her makeover - the show detailing her transformation will be aired at the end of May.
Julie asked Lex how is his relationship with Rob, were they partying together last night. Lex and Kathy were both very hoarse and could barely speak. Lex said that he and Rob were not partying together. Lex did give Rob his congratulations and gave Rob and Amber best of luck.
Richard spoke about the dynamics of the game... "it's a tough game. You gotta separate it to have a good time".
Julie asked how many people were bothered by Richard not having clothes on: Sue, Rudy and Tom raised their hands. Lex said that there "isn't much to be bothered about".
Big Tom was asked if he's buried the hatchet with Rob. "I buried it in his back. Really, I'm 48 years old, I hope I'm mature enough. I'm not going to hold a grudge. Me and Rob will get along ok, it's just gonna take time."
Shii Ann was asked why Amber deserved her vote: "She played a great game, she didn't get enough credit. She was strategizing the whole time and made it past all the power players".
Harry Smith asked Rob Cesternino what it was like to be tossed out so early. Rob said he would be redeemed on Thursday night when America votes for him to win the 2nd million.
Colby was asked if he and Shii Ann have patched things up. Shii Ann and Colby said that there is no animosity and they get along great.
Julie asked if there is any animosity left in the group. Jerri said that it will take time.
Harry talked briefly to Jenna and Ethan about their relationship.
Tina discussed how it was impossible for winners, 2nd and 3rd place contestants to win All Stars.
Rudy made a statement that if he wins the 2nd million dollars that he will donate $500,000 to "the wives and kids of my buddies in Iraq that are getting killed".
Jeff Probst presented the million dollar check to Amber.
*sigh*
