Love Island 2024

I agree with other comments about wanting more normal, down to earth people with regular jobs, hardly any followers and hardly any work done on the show instead. I hate the whole “influencer” thing anyway gives me the ick so when every contestant is one it just ruins the show. It’s not how it was years ago. They’re all going on there wanting the fame and have zero personality.
I also think the last few years they’re just shown constant forced conversations between them all discussing couples and who they like the whole episodes, none of the fun stuff and banter, joking around between them all like there used to be, like there’s no fun in the episodes anymore it’s all “who you like then, I might stick it on her blah blah blah”

One of the issues too is (normal) people in this economy can’t afford to leave “normal jobs” just to go on LI cos it’s a massive risk, hence why they’re usually always influencers or self employed MUA/aestheticians/PTs/hairdressers etc.

They’re all usually either models, have a social media following or come from wealthy families

Wish we could have 25 +, more normal ish people.

But I guess when you get to that age, you can't just throw your life away for an influencer life that may not happen.

I wonder what could be the middle ground?

Paying them properly? I think they get about £200 a week expenses to cover their bills at home while they're on the show, so they don't really get an actual fee for going on. If the show paid well, more normal people with normal jobs could afford to go on. They just seem to want influencers who are clones of previous contestants though, I don't get it. I'm sure there are loads of attractive people who aren't influencers/nepo babies who would love to go on.

I’ve seen on TikTok there’s rumours of Kyra Mae the TikTok ‘solo’ travel agent going in LI this year… would fit with her coming back so quickly from her travelling!

Ooh they’re releasing them now and a lot of them look normal from their instagrams. Yeah they are glam but a lot of young people are now

Another lot of clones. I really don't think I can watch any more of this

 

[IndominusRex]

The girls look very interchangeable

Me too lmaoo
Swear this happens every year “oh they bullied me in school” - who cares x

Mimmi is stunning. Most of the other girls look very similar to each other. It's all the same hair and makeup. I get that conventionally attractive 20 somethings is love island's thing, but they could still be more diverse within that and have people with bright hair colours, piercings, unique style etc just to add some variety.

I'll still watch every night though

What about a goth version of love island. Now that I’d watch

 

[SaLou]

Is anyone watching I Kissed a Girl? It really stood out to me how much more natural looking a lot of them are.
It's a shame Love Island go for the same types every time.

I love the “do better” as if LI would have any idea or awareness of an alleged incident of a non-famous person from a drunken night out lmao
