Even if you haven\u2019t seen a single episode of it, you\u2019ve probably encountered any given number of references in pop culture to its dramatic eliminations \u2014 perhaps you\u2019re familiar with its famous phrase, \u201cThe tribe has spoken!\u201d \u2014 or high-stakes challenges that put both strategic and athletic abilities to the test. More than 750 contestants have tried their hands at the all-consuming, physically exhausting game, and countless others have tuned in season after season to watch everything unfold.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWith the size of <em>Survivor<\/em>\u2018s audience, it\u2019s only natural that many of the show\u2019s fans are people with big fanbases themselves. Numerous celebrities have expressed their devout love for the enterprise, including several star musicians \u2014 some of whom have even gotten the chance to make cameos or add their own twists on episodes of the show. A certain A-list pop star, for instance, recently launched her very own game-changing idol in the series\u2019 landmark 50th season, while a famous country bandleader once sailed out to the island to hang out with the contestants and grill up some fresh catch. (More on both of those later.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe 50th installment of <em>Survivor <\/em>is ongoing, with the finale slated to air on CBS and Paramount+ in May.
