Actress from Naberezhnye Chelny Albina Kabalina admitted that she would like to win money on the reality show «Stars in the Jungle. Caribbean Season» to fulfill her grandmother«s dream – to take her to Paris. Also during this episode, she managed to sprain her ankle.

Let«s start with the challenges. Kabalina diligently performed one of the tasks: she was looking for a coin that provides immunity in the show, and now she walks with a bandaged leg.

According to the scenario, the star participants must survive in the Caribbean in the Dominican Republic. In the final, the remaining participant will take the cash prize.

«I see that my metal detector starts ticking, as if I found gold. I start to fuss, turn around and… trip, fall, there»s a crunch in my ankle!« the actress said.

Despite this, the girl and four other participants faced a new task. Kabalina hoped that she wouldn«t have to use her injured leg. The challenge turned out to be »Dominican Roulette«, which was no less difficult: participants took turns spinning the wheel and trying exotic dishes. In the first round, Albina got ceviche with 100-day fish.

«That fish stank like a public toilet! Just remember that smell, dear friends, and you»ll understand everything immediately,« she shared.

At the end of the episode, Albina still found immunity with the help of actress Anna Tsukanova-Kott and was able to avoid the elimination ceremony. And the total score with the non-elimination amount at the end of the episode was 3 million rubles (approximately $31,600 at current rates).

The show«s hosts Mikhail Galustyan and Olga Buzova asked Kabalina if this amount was large for her. The answer was negative.

«12.5 million rubles (approximately $131,600 at current rates): I»ll pay off the mortgage completely and go with my grandmother to Paris! It«s her dream,» the actress declared.

Recall that in one of the previous episodes of the show, Kabalina quarreled with Sergei Romanovich, known from the series «Chernobyl. Exclusion Zone». She reacted too vigorously to winning the challenge and pushed Sergei. The girl admitted that she didn«t expect the actor to be too gentle.
