Netflix’s ‘The Circle‘ challenges contestants in ways they might not anticipate, offering the freedom to either play as themselves, alter certain aspects of their persona, or completely reinvent their identity. However, the game comes with the constant risk of exposure, making strategy essential. In the seventh season, Jadejha Edwards made a calculated decision to be authentic and play as herself. She recognized that staying composed, relying on her instincts, and presenting her true personality would be the most effective way to build trust and navigate the competitive environment. This approach proved successful, allowing her to form genuine connections, establish strong alliances, and advance further than many competitors.
Jadejha Edwards Did Not Want to be Involved in Unnecessary Drama
Jadejha Edwards was thrilled to connect with her fellow contestants through text in The Circle and made an immediate impact during the initial interaction. One person who particularly caught her attention was Darian Holt. She was drawn to his appearance, how he presented himself and communicated, sparking thoughts of a potential alliance—and perhaps something more. As the contestants played a small game, answering questions, Jadejha stood out with some of her clever responses, yet this didn’t raise any suspicions about her “catfishing.”
The following day, she seized the opportunity to invite Darian to a private chat. Their conversation included some playful flirting, but more importantly, they solidified their alliance, agreeing to watch each other’s backs throughout the season. Jadejha understood that she needed to form more alliances to strengthen her position. So, when she was invited into a group chat with Deb Levy (Rachel) and Gianna (twins JoJo and Nicky Scarlotta), who were playing as Gianna, she recognized the potential for a strong girls’ alliance.
Jadejha appreciated Rachel’s straightforward approach in suggesting they band together and readily agreed to join them. She maintained a solid standing, securing 3rd place in the first elimination round and 4th in the second. However, when tensions flared after Savannah Miller’s elimination, she wisely chose to keep her distance from the drama. She confided in Darian, saying she had no interest in the conflict and preferred to remain mature, focusing on winning the game with him as her ally.
