“I’m the type of person when I am upset, and someone’s betrayed me, I speak my mind. And that’s what I’m doing.”

These were not the words of Colton Cumbie on Wednesday’s episode of Survivor but were from former Survivor Nicaraguan player, Shannon Elkins, seconds before he was about to ask possibly the most offensive question in Survivor history. When fellow tribemate and Novel York resident Sash told Shannon, “You’re pretty much digging your own grave,”  Shannon pointed to Sash and asked, “Hey, I’m going to get this out of the way right now, are you gay?”

I bring up Shannon because when he got voted out in the second episode in Nicaragua, many considered him a homophobe. After Wednesday’s episode of Survivor, Colton is being called a racist by many.

Shannon felt betrayed by tribemate Chase. They had an alliance and Chase broke it, much like Leif broke Colton’s belief by telling Bill he wa

There have been some jaw-dropping Tribal Council moments over the years. My favorite? When Dreamz broke his deal with Yau-Man after accepting his truck in “Survivor: Fiji.”

But “Survivor: Nicaragua” nearly topped that last night thanks to Shannon Elkins’s decision to interrogate Matthew “Sash” Lenahan’s sexuality.  Unfortunately for Shannon, his unorthodox line of questioning didn’t do much to keep him in the game. I had a chance to chat with Shannon the following morning to discuss why he isn’t a homophobe, what he thinks of New Yorkers, and what really happened to NaOnka’s socks.

Gordon Holmes: Now, in the first episode you managed to offend women, and this last episode you offended homosexuals. Was there a group you’re sorry you didn’t get a chance to offend while you were out there?
Shannon Elkins:
I really wanted to piss off the white people.
Gordon: Some would say you&#;ve already…
Shannon: Hey man, are you gay?
Gordon: Am I gay? No.
Shannon: I’m joking with you, man.
Gordon: But if I were gay, I’d be cool admitting it.
Shannon: Exactly! Thank you, my brother.

&#;Survivor Nicaragua&#; SPOILERS: What did Sash do? What&#;s the controversy? Why did they stop cameras at final tribal council? Why did he get no jury votes?

Here&#;s our future Survivor Season 21 closing three: Sash, Chase and Fabio.

This is it. The one mystery left on &#;Survivor: Nicaragua&#;: What did Matthew “Sash” Lenahan do that was so controversial that Jeff Probst stopped taping of the final tribal council, no one voted for Sash to win and some cast members still seem to hate him?

*Post-Finale Update* It looks fond of the big event did NOT happen at final tribal, it happened during Jane&#;s boot, which aired the week before the finale. The controversy itself was never addressed on air. *End Update*
