Sia Gives 'Survivor' Finalist $100K For Being An Animal Rights Activist

In one of the best moments in "Survivor" history, Sia showed up to the live finale, ran up to the stage and gifted a finalist with a couple thousand bucks. Why? Well, because he's an animal rights activist who showed his love of the planet during his time on the reality competition show.

 Tai Trang, a 51 year-old gardener currently living in San Francisco, was a fan-favorite on Season 32 of "Survivor." While filming the show in Cambodia, he confessed his adoration for all living things,saved a chicken from slaughter (for the entire game, despite the contestants being very hungry), and outwitted, outplayed and outlasted all but two contestants. Tai made it to the final three, but ultimately 24-year-old Michele Fitzgerald was crowned the  sole survivor, with 29-year-old Aubry Bracco coming in second place.

During Tai's chat with host Jeff Probst onstage, a voice could be heard from the audience. Probst soon announced that it was, in fact, hitmaker Sia and that she had something to say. Then, the singer, who's a fan of the long-running reality series, discussed her feelings toward Tai and his devotion to living things, telling him that she wanted to give him $50,000, as well as another $50,000 for an animal charity of his choice.

"I'm speechless," Tai said as he hugged Sia, who was, of course, hidden behind one of her famous wigs.

Wow!  @Sia is a  #Survivor fan and just gave Tai and a charity of his choice $50,000 #bestever
