Quoting from reality blurred + Candace Smith: “I don’t want my strength or confidence to be blatant”
Candace laughed at CBS bio’s description of her as “brutally honest” and “a total bitch,” but said they’re accurate. However, she added, “I’m not planning on coming out of the gate as a ruthless bitch everyone hates. It’s going to be subtle. I don’t want my strength or confidence to be blatant; I want it to be subtle.” There are other strengths she brings to the game, too. “I can be a diplomat, I can negotiate. I think that I’m pretty analytical, I know how to reason with people very well. Some people may look at that as manipulating. Maybe. Who cares?” Candace said.
As to her fellow competitors, she was already annoyed by some, like the people who were “cutting lines, spilling stuff and not picking it up. I notice everything and little things like that says something: lack of respect, lack of consideration. Will that wear on me and will I end up sticking my foot in my mouth? Probably. Probably.”
That will challenge her in the game, as Candace said that “some people’s air of entitlement is going to be hard for me—and I’m getting a little deep here, I don’t know if you mind—but I’ve noticed in past seasons that sometimes people who’ve had to endure more in their life have a more difficult time in this environment because people who haven’t had to experience much, it becomes really obvious in an environment like this.” That’s one of her challenges in the game: “I know that’s going to be really hard for me … to deal with the people who’ve been sheltered and babied their entire life.”
