Why do all the Islanders look the same year in and year out? I’d have thought ITV would have learned by now. There is very little diversity. The men in particular are all awful, with massive overly pumped up gym arms, shoulders and torsos with skinny legs (because they always skip leg day obvs). I don’t find this kind of look attractive at all, never have and I don’t know many who do on reflection. The women are a bit better, no ridiculous lip and cheek fillers so far, but still it’s all of a muchness. I think this is where I miss Big Brother as the people were always a bit more real.

No there are no mixed race lads with funny heads this year 🤣🤣 so definitely different, doesn’t matter that they recycled the names even 🤷🏽‍♀️🤣

the issue is the scouting from instagram, they should just have people apply and nothing else

Yes, I don’t think any of the contestants actually apply anymore. If you look at the first two series the islanders were much more ‘normal‘ looking. I actually know of someone who was a standby about three years ago, and she was approached by the producers. She’s a very successful MUA who‘s become very well knows locally, she really didn’t need to do it. Not sure why she did as she’s genuinely got a good business going and had to cancel all of her prom and wedding clients to do the show which didn’t go down well. But I suppose the offer was too good to be true.
 
i think they all think theyre going to be propelled into stardom but lets face it the season 6/season 7 cast have to take pretty tit influencing deals to make money, there's not gonna be another molly mae people are too used to the formula now. season 5 was the peak of the show and itll just decline now. people think theyre gonna go into love island and earn enough money to retire/never have to work again but thats really not the case anymore.

Also the influencer market is oversaturated now because of love island. They should all go back to their own jobs I’ve always thought because they aren’t celebrity’s
 
kat, ekin, zara’s brother, jordan, etc - are all of these rumoured contestants probably not going to be apart of the show now? or will they come in as bombshells? i can’t remember a year where the sun/media were so wrong with the rumoured line up lol

Do you lot not agree that they always do poorly in selecting the boys? Feel like the women are always stunning but the boys tend to lack with only 1 or 2 being really fit, the others are always … meh?

*Edit: although I don’t feel many of these girls are my ideal of gorgeous, anyway. They all look the same?? I’ve seen prettier, more unique girls in my local chippy.
