In 2016, Yılmaz Morgül, who was eliminated through public voting after reaching the final three in the Survivor program broadcast on TV8, announced that he made the decision to participate in Survivor following an offer made for charitable purposes.
Singer and performer Yılmaz Morgül gained attention with his participation in the Survivor competition in 2016. Morgül, who shared the reasons behind his participation in Survivor and his experiences in the competition candidly, also explained how he received the offer to join from Acun Ilıcalı. Yılmaz Morgül was part of the Celebrities team in the Survivor competition that aired in 2016.
Morgül stated that he participated in the Survivor competition because of the help provided, saying, "They told Acun Ilıcalı, 'Yılmaz is not one of the artists you know. Do you want to bring this guy to Survivor? If you do this, you can convince him to come.' Yılmaz has worked with 25 health associations and foundations for sick children. They said if you make a donation there, you can take Yılmaz with you. That's why I went. I agreed to stay for 2 weeks. Since my ratings were very high, I stayed for 3 months. I told Mr. Acun that I left of my own accord," he said.
"I BECAME ILL"
Morgül stated that he experienced health problems after leaving Survivor, continuing his words as follows, "I went in at 72 kilos and dropped to 58. I became ill. If I were in Survivor now, no one could stand against me. I love Adem as a person. He doesn't interfere with anything, doesn't fight. He tries to mediate."
