Interview: The unexpected person Ian thinks would be a good Traitor on The Traitors Australia 2023.
Banished contestant Ian Zaro has opened up about who he believes would be a great traitor – and surprisingly, it’s one of the Faithfuls with minimal screentime.
During a post-elimination interview with Chattr, Ian named one co-star who he believes could have deceived everyone. The social media star said that he thinks highly decorated police officer Keith Banks would have been a great choice because he “goes under the radar”.

“Keith talks so much, but it’s so little, there’s nothing he’s actually contributing. It’s such a perfect cover because he’s doing so much talking,” he said.
“He’s an investigator, he worked on the force and he didn’t really help out,” Ian reasoned.

Why Ian believes he would have been a good Traitor
While Ian thinks Keith could have made it to the end as a Traitor, he also said that he would have loved to be on the scheming team.
“I probably would have got some more screen time if I was a Traitor,” he laughed.
Ian – who has over 2.3 million followers on TikTok – said that his background in content creation has trained him to be able to take on different roles, which would have been a great skill to have as a Traitor.

“I was hoping to be one because I’d get to be someone different. I can just mould my personality with whoever but I didn’t have a reason to [as a Faithful]. I was just like, ‘I’m here to scope out a traitor, that’s all I need to do’.”
If he was chosen as one, Ian said that he would be able to state his case more and have “a bit more fun”.
“If I was a Traitor I think I would have got to play the game a bit more but I wouldn’t be able to be so hilarious! I would play the game a bit more, be more social, and try harder to win the game.”
