This is a very difficult decision for me because I really enjoyed speaking with you both and getting to know you throughout the game. And although you both had a hand in my eviction, I honestly have no hard feelings and think y'all played a great game.
I first want to thank you both for comparing me to Natalie and GinaMarie... I actually like both of them!
Dixie, why did you evict me over Andrew?
And to both of y'all, if you could choose any 5 people from this game to be in ALl-Stars (including yourselves) which five people would it be, and why did you choose them?
Love you both, and I hope we can stay in touch... I'd like to see where your lives take y'all!

Hi Talla! I'd love to keep in touch after the game, I'll add whomever on Facebook; I like keeping a network of people I've played with, it's very interesting to see how different everyone is that you've played with!
This question was very difficult, because I feel like more than 5 people could be more than deserving to earn an All-Stars spot. It could potentially also come down to who wins the game, between Dixie and I - who knows? However, if I were selecting any 5 to be All-Stars from this game, I'd select the following:
Andrew, first and foremost. He was probably in the best position from day one. He made strong ties and social connections with so many players that he had to backstab almost everyone. Furthermore, I find it extremely impressive that he was able to make it to the final 3 despite nominating literally everyone in the game at some point, EXCEPT myself, Krystal, and Alec. That's just crazy!
I'd select myself next, because I feel I've played a very impressive and well-rounded game as well. I bonded with all of the right people at the right times which brought me to the point where I made my move in the game and turned the game upside down at the final 6.
Third, I'd select Ryan. He always had his back up against the wall and was nominated but either A) found the votes to save himself [sending Suzette and Greg home] or B) won the Power of Veto [sending Krystal to the Jury house]. He was a strong force to be reckoned with and he had a bunch of ties as well, hence him surviving sure-fire eviction a couple times.
This is where it gets tricky, I feel like AJ, you, Dixie, and even Rory (for a first timer), Krystal (she fought so hard on her way out), and Liza (who was an amazing player until backstabbed) deserve All-Stars in your own rights, but as of right now, I'd select you and Dixie, and here's why.
I'd choose you for the All-Stars cast because I feel as though you were very dynamic in the sense that you kept things interesting, especially toward the end of the game. You were a very devoted player and you loved the game, and we can all see that. You're very entertaining and your fights with AJ kept the game exciting, which would open the door to cast AJ for All-Stars as well (he was constantly nominated, targeted, and involved in drama yet survived till the F4) however your showing in the Finale has put you in the spotlight with your videos and I love it, while AJ still hasn't posted anything for the Finale (which I am anticipating greatly, since it could very well give him the edge into All-Stars.)
Final, I'll give the final spot to Dixie, since she was constantly underestimated and she played a very good UTR game, yet she was still a strong competition beast and everyone overlooked that at exactly the right times. She was ultimately responsible for the downfall of Andrew, and breaking up Andrelle, which was a great feat deserving of All-Stars.
I hope this answers your question; it's just very difficult since I feel more than 5 deserve it, and if only 5 get it... it's hard to say and I don't envy the Hosts one bit for having to make that decision.

Thanks girl <3 Dixie Dix always can spread the love!
I evicted you over Andrew for several reasons. Firstly, you were telling everyone what they wanted to hear. I heard about your final four that did not involve me, you had a final two with AJ and Andrew each separately, and you were working me in that area as well. I knew you would do anything to make the end and at the time you were lying way more than Andrew. On top of that, I was much more fearful you were going to challenge whore it to the finals opposed to Andrew. Your times were much faster in challenges than Andrew during the last couple rounds and it was getting scary. With you out I knew that it would better my odds in the end game competitions. If you took out Estelle after final five, I was fearful you would take AJ over myself to the end.
Five Allstars: Dixie Estelle Andrew Talla Ryan
Basically the final five but with Ryan over AJ. (Ryan was a much more in your face character who was probably very entertaining to the staff) I feel the staff is going to have a tough time deciding and may even select more than just five. I'm sure Liza will get a spot. It probably has to do with Diary Room confessionals, entertainment, and good gameplay. So to be fair when selecting - Myself, Estelle, Andrew, and Talla did not make final five for no reason. Credit must be given to where it's deserved. I played a very underestimated game, surprised a lot, and was a fun character for people to watch. Estelle has a well rounded game with her alliances and competition performances. Andrew was a huge threat all game long and all around probably the most deserving Allstars player. You because you became an unexpected contender to win during the final stretch and they could see the fight you had. (Also how could you not make it after your videos les be honest) And like I said before, Ryan opposed to AJ because he was a huge character who got in many fights.
Thanks girly!
