Meet Starla Heinz, Player #318 From Netflix’s Squid Game: The Challenge
Starla Heinz is donning #318 on Netflix’s reality show Squid Game: The Challenge. “It’s like ‘Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,'” Starla said in the show. “Going after the golden ticket… Who’s not in debt? We’re facing a recession. I mean, I had to – – I’m not getting paid at work for this. But you’re dreaming; you’re taking a chance. What’s that like, to be able to pay off your house? What’s that like, to be able to pay off your car? I know these may be simple dreams, but what’s that like? Yeah, I got my own dreams. They may not be much, but I got dreams too.”
Starla was determined to make it to the end. Sadly, she got eliminated within a few minutes because she couldn’t maintain her balance and she failed to pass Red Light Green Light, the first challenge.
