Survivor: The Australian Outback
Hasselbeck was a fan-favorite from Survivor: The Australian Outback, and was originally a member of the Kucha tribe. She was known for having a father-daughter relationship with Kucha tribemate Rodger Bingham, even vowing not to vote for him. Despite not being the strongest member of her tribe, she managed to contribute in challenges and her pleasant demeanor kept her in the good graces of the Kucha tribe. Like the rest of her tribe, her chances of winning drastically decreased after Ogakor succeeding in voting out Jeff Varner on Day 21. She did get along with the members of Ogakor though, as Tina Wesson and Keith Famie opted to keep her in the game longer than Jerri Manthey and Amber Brkich, due to past differences pre-Merge. Nevertheless, she could not escape the Pagonging forever. She was the last remaining member of her tribe in the game before being voted off on Day 39 and finishing fourth overall. Her luxury item was a self-made headdress. At the Final Tribal Council, as a Juror, Elisabeth gave her jury vote to Tina, who would go on to win the game in a close 4-3 vote.

Trivia
- Elisabeth was the youngest member of Kucha.
- Elisabeth's luxury item was a self-made headdress.
- Elisabeth is the first contestant from the state of Massachusetts.
- After the merge, Elisabeth voted against every member of Ogakor, with the exception of Tina Wesson, twice in a row (for Colby Donaldson in the same Tribal Council, then twice against Jerri Manthey, twice against Amber, and twice against Keith). Furthermore, in the Final Tribal Council, she voted for Tina, the only Ogakor member of Barramundi she did not vote against.
- Elisabeth and Keith Famie were the only contestants in Survivor history that reached 39 days, but did not make it to the Final Tribal Council, since the season was three days longer than the previous season and subsequent seasons.
- Elisabeth is the only contestant to be voted out on Day 39.
- Elisabeth was asked to return for Survivor: All-Stars, but declined due to her job offer as a co-host on The View. Elisabeth would be replaced by fellow Survivor: The Australian Outback castaway Amber Brkich.
- Elisabeth was nominated in America's Tribal Council in the "Hottest Female Contestant" category, but lost to Amber Brkich.
- Eventual Survivor: Cook Islands castaway Rebecca Borman used to work as Elisabeth's make-up artist on ABC's The View. When Rebecca revealed to Elisabeth that she competed, Rebecca claimed that Elisabeth "was literally floored."
- Elisabeth was considered to be a candidate for Survivor: Cambodia, but declined.
