Rupert’s Biography… Rupert Boneham is best known for his accolades on two seasons of the CBS hit reality series, Survivor. Competing on both Survivor: Pearl Islands and Survivor: All Stars, Rupert quickly became the all time favorite competitor in the series. After winning America's Tribal Council, Rupert was awarded one million dollars, much of which he used to start his dream: Rupert's Kids. Realizing that even last place brought in a cash prize, Rupert was optimistic that his involvement in Survivor might help toward alleviating some of the credit card debt he accrued while mentoring the young people in his group. Once Survivor: Pearl Islands aired, Rupert's entire world changed. With one simple act, stealing his opponents' shoes, Rupert made a spot for himself in TV history as the most popular Survivor castaway ever. His popularity brought him back for another season of Survivor, this time to face off against the All-Stars from previous seasons. Sadly, Rupert was voted off the island again, but something truly life changing awaited him at the finale. On the day of his daughter's fifth birthday, Rupert was awarded a check for one million dollars, after being selected by viewers as "America's Favorite Survivor". While ensuring the financial security of his family for years to come, Rupert also made good on his promise and donated a large portion of his winnings to Indianapolis-based Choices, Inc., where he had previously worked as a mentor for The Dawn Project. His donation was used to create Rupert's Kids, the culmination of 20+ years of working to impact the lives of youth that are all-too-often overlooked in our society. Today, Rupert continues to raise funds and awareness for Rupert's Kids, through a campaign of nationwide appearances, speaking engagements and endorsements.Specialties: "VH1: All Access" (1 episode, 2007) - Where Are They Now?: Reality Stars (2007) TV EpisodeOpen Mic'rs (2006) ....
