Parvati Shallow ( PARV-ə-tee; born September 21, 1982) is an American television personality, best known for competing on multiple seasons of the reality game show Survivor and being a two-time Survivor winner—first winning Survivor: Micronesia–Fans vs. Favorites in 2008, and then while representing the USA on the Australia V The World season of Australian Survivor in 2025. She first appeared on Survivor: Cook Islands 2006, in which she placed 6th, and also participated in Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains in 2010, placing 2nd and on Survivor: Winners at War in 2020, in which she placed 15th. Shallow gained the nickname "Black Widow" due to her strategic gameplay on Survivor, particularly using her sociability and flirtation to gain allies and subtly control the game. The nickname followed her to other reality show appearances, including The Traitors 2 and Deal or No Deal Island 2. Beyond embracing it for television, Shallow has used the moniker in her role as a life coach—notably in her course How Villains are Made, which focuses on personal empowerment topics. She is also the author of Nice Girls Don't Win, which is both a book and a podcast.
