Love Island - part 4

[Violetroselily]

New thread

Just seen a story that Jack’s ex will be sent into the villa! Wonder if it’s true.

I don’t know why Samira even bothered coming onto the show. She’s far too pretty and intelligent to be on this show with a bunch of chavvy people (except Alex) who lack class and education .
The type of man she needs would be sophisticated and classy , but ITV are not providing her with any decent blokes.
Rosie’s disloyalty towards Samira was unbelievable. If Samira had reacted negatively, she would be labelled ‘aggressive ‘

They’ve done the ex thing a few years. I called Jacks’s going in. Dani and Jack are having too much of an easy time atm 🥄

The website Bustle did a very good article about Samira will see if I can link

Alex also massively looks up to Adam

I think he’s like many of the guys I knew growing up - he’s probably the Adam of his social sphere but the girls there just aren’t the kind he’d ever normally encounter socially

I did think when i was watching the other day that since Samira first went in she has had her hair tied up / scraped back which makea a difference to her evening look and i do find young men tend to go for the girls with the long loose hair.

Ellie isn't into Alex. Give it a couple more days and she will be talking herself out of that one. She knows the public love him and wants to be in with them. Everytime they are sat in a group Ellie is sat about as far away from Alex as possible.

Dont mind Sam Bird but must admit his brows are a huge distraction.

It was interesting that on survival of the fittest it didn’t feel like token black contestants, particularly for the women but LI it feels like ticking a box.

And us Asians are further down that list. A certain episode of Master of None springs to mind.

But they just need more of a spectrum of people full stop. It just very insta peeps. Boys must think that’s what they’re meant to look like just as much as girls. Last year it felt like 70% of them were from Essex.

is it jus me who thinks samira hasnt really tried though, she had the date with charlie and josh and sam aswell. so they all picked her. it just never hit off and alex liked her to begin with and said she was very attractive but she made it clear she wasnt interested. i think she thought something better would come along and its yet to have happened for her.

Yeah where are all the asian british people! There is one girl in the aussie version who is asian mixed

Is it on tonight??

Thanks for the link Mrstark
Definitely think that ITV are trying to adhere to some type of diversity quota.

areyoubeing I don’t think the others are Chavy or unintelligent at all. And I don’t think Samira is super intelligent or overly pretty. Horses for courses.

@Moneyissue2 they don't do a normal episode on a Saturday. They do a highlights show instead.

Ahh, thanks maxi

Oh I do like the Saturday shows, we need so so much more of this during the week

Why don't they show this stuff usually? Really portraying them in such different lights. I've just been giggling on the sofa at that conversation!

I love Laura anyway even though she seems to not be too popular!

I loved Adams Essex accent saying “she’s a sort”

Don’t agree with you Chipstick, but as you said horses for courses

Did I miss much?

laura is my favourite. i watched the weekly hotlist for the first time tonight. still laughing at a box of fresh creps!

Alex "bloody well flossing" was funny. DS had been doing it for ages then taught me (good exercise for ye waist :)

The weekly hotlist is much more fun than the main show. They all seem human

Yes, I don't know why they don't show stuff like that in the main show really. Too much relationship talk. Alex comes off so cringeworthy sun-fri and lovely on Sat. I still hold out a bit of hope that Ellie does like him and that he can chill tf out now and behave less desperate-stalker all the time.

I think they did show more stuff like this in previous scenes. I'm really not sure why they aren't this year. I wonder if they have a new producer or something?
I'm still watching and still enjoying but it's nowhere near as entertaining as it has been on previous years.

I have to say the penis conversation between Laura and Georgia really made me laugh.
