A billionaire entrepreneur, adventurer, ladykiller and philanthropist: Sir Sebastian Simian. Sebastian balances his British charm and charisma with doses of snide, acerbic comments and a healthy sprinkle of intolerance. He also happens to be the smartest person in the room. Just ask him – he’ll tell you.
He lives his life according to his two favorite books, The Art of War and The Prince – yes he’s that scary guy. He once fired Donald Trump as a display of dominance meant solely for Warren Buffett. Sebastian doesn’t need to be here on this game show, but he does love attention so here he is.
Sebastian, or “Triple S” as they call him, is single and was once married. He’s simply too rich to get married again - it wouldn’t be a wise financial move. But women constantly throw themselves at his generous, protuberant assets.
Hotels, Casinos, land, charity work - he has his fingers in a bit of everything. His “take no prisoners” management style has made all of his ventures the biggest, best and most successful in the world. Sebastian is so successful he has to put a new auto-biography out every week. His latest is - Fabulous Things I Did the Second and Third Weeks of February, Volumes 1 and 2.
Also his adventuring occasionally hits some snags. Sebastian’s mishaps always leave zoos, orphanages, children’s hospitals, and presidential libraries in flames. Every sports team, every refugee group, everyone he sponsors is touched by tragedy. His latest world cup sailing effort killed a record 92 blue whales.
Sebastian would appear to be one of the most well-mannered, reserved, and austere gentlemen you could ever meet - except when there’s a tire swing around – then he totally goes ape-shit on it. Which brings us to his next peccadillo - on the rare occasion that he drinks too much, he throws his poop at people. Nobody’s perfect.
On the show, he is as quick to say “Great job” as he is to deride one for being a total idiot in their game… His barbs can be pithy and vicious but in his mind it’s not that he is cruel or mean-spirited, it’s all done to make one better and to help them fool the contestants who should earn their money the hard way. Sebastian even snaps at Larry to get back on track because he often has some event to get to, or some other place to be.
Because of his wealth, Sebastian rarely has any bills smaller than the one hundred dollar variety so he is constantly borrowing fives, tens and twenties from the cast – mostly Larry. “I’ve only got Euros today. Spot me one of your unstable dollar bills for the snack machine, Larry?”
Sebastian respects Larry. Larry is in charge and that’s who Sebastian likes to deal with – people who are in charge. Of all the cast, Larry seems to be the only one who can make him laugh, or at least acknowledge the attempt at humor.
As Cashmere’s confidant, Sebastian spent a lot of time doing damage control over her highly publicized missteps – the sex tapes, the up-skirt photos, the boozing etc. Because she is such a mess in every way, there is a slightly paternal edge to Sebastian’s relationship with her. He often does not approve of what she does.
