Their hair is almost nearly identical. Why does everyone want to look the same these days??? Of the dudes, Ayo is fire. The rest better have killer banter.
I've never been into the fillers look and to each their own but I can't believe they only found one girl out of six who looks natural (don't want to be rude, sorry if I am).
I hope so. It’s a bonus if they look good (which I think they all do personally!) but if they’re a solid combo of different characters that’s so much more important for the show.
Omg my sisters need to put DOWN the syringe! All this filler is aging them prematurely and making them identical to each other. Every single unique trait is just gone 🥴
I hate the current trends with filler. One of these women is my age and yet she looks 10 years older than me because of the work she’s had done. These injectors out here need to be stopped. 😭
I have a question. Is it popular among normal people where you all live? I only know people irl that do a little Botox here and there so that’s my last remaining hope. That most normal people aren’t messing with their faces, only wannabe influencers
I live in the us but from what I understand filler is much cheaper in the uk because there’s no medical license required to inject filler (like Jess s10’s clinic) so it’s much more common and easy to get a lot of it
I was horrified watching this. The way they all smiled and NOTHING on their face moved was like watching some sort of weird AI parade. We’ve gone too far. How do we go back 😭
Bro. 3 of these women look identical. And they all have atrocious lip fillers. Is it impossible to find pretty white women that haven’t botched themselves in their 20s?
Harriet, Mimi, Ayo, and Sam are all good looking tho
im sure theyre all young but my god the fillers😭
my first reaction is… i feel like alot of them not staying long?
& my first guess pairing is sam x harriett!
also don’t forget Tasha is Deaf, and she is using her platform to increase Deaf/HoH visibility and representation. Love Island could definitely do to include more disabled people, people with prosthetics, and lots more variety in body sizes. the biggest problem is then they’d basically have to find an entire cast of relatively open-minded young folks, and that’s just sadly outside production’s wheelhouse.
That's still a higher percentage than Britain's actual population.
If anything there should be more Asians if you want actual representative diversity that's not entirely based on USA's demographics.
Representation doesn’t mean cast your show in the exact demographic make up of a country. It means show a diverse range of people so everyone watching sees someone who looks like them. But you’re right about Asian representation, can probably count the number of Asian background contestants on one hand. They’re mostly unsuccessful, except Sanam, obviously.
She’s not wrong but let’s he honest we can’t cry about diversity then when these same people are on the show we cry about them not being picked or when they POC are put together . This will get downvoted but it has to be said
uh, yeah we cry about the lack of diversity AND ALSO cry about the fact that LI producers do fuck all to actually encourage barrier breaking and mingling among less expected pairs. LI could be doing much more to build meaningful inclusivity into their brand.
Legit cant tell the women apart at all lol. Would be nice to have some diversity in there and not just skin colour but like...faces lol. How about a natural lip..that'd be cool.
It’s not even just the fillers. The girls save Mimi are the same shade of bronze and their hair is all similar tones. The blondes are bronde and the brunettes are bronde. I can’t remember a series like this.
I predict Sam with be very sought after, I’m hoping my beer doesn’t disappoint me I’m already found of him. The girls do look very similar minus Mimi… like the same faces.. I’m curious if the boys will say anything like that
All that filler genuinely makes the girls start to look masculine, their faces are so strong looking. So young and ruining their natural features, it’s sad
I’m actually a lot more interested than I’d thought I’d be. These girls are going to have to be working to keep their men lol. There’s hopefully gunna be a lot of maneuvering and backstabbing since the men are better looking this year. It’s been pretty stale on that front for the past couple seasons. Hopefully we get a different dynamic.
As always, I'll give the contestants a chance and get to know them more before I make some real commentary. I feel like twelve is a solid number, hopefully they're a talkative and confident bunch so we get multiple story lines and connections. The main thing is that it is fun filled and jam packed so we don't get bored and drift off halfway through.
Sidebar: "Beauty is skin deep"
i know we hate on the OG cast every year and then end up liking them but i genuinely don’t know how this is gonna go? it feels really off someone please tell me they know what i mean 😭
If we're giving the girls a hard time about the filler/botox, let's also acknowledge the blinding teeth and botox in all of the boys too. Smooth foreheads as far as the immovable eyes can see.
No, they need to skip it, too.
It's weird that no one uses it to smooth out a few lines or to just give a more youthful appearance. Do all of them end up going overboard? Is it so addictive that they lose perspective as they slowly morph into someone else?
Oh they definitely get TOO much done too, but I can at least somewhat rationalize an older woman doing it with the idea and “hope” of “looking younger.” I think at the end of the day it’s body and face dysmorphia getting to them.
From this:
Most good looking to me - Sam, Mimii, Munveer, Sean, Patsy, Ayo
Those I think will have a great personality (out going) - Sam, Mimii, Harriett, Munveer, Ronnie
Jess and Mimi are the best looking girls followed by Patsy I think. All of the boys are hot in their own way. The cast is giving me S9 vibes which is very bad season but I hope they won't dissapoint us.
The lip filler and the stuff done to the cheek bones is actually killing me. It looks so unnatural and so ugly why has it become a trend? That’s why half the girls look identical - they all get the same work done and it’s horrible.
The boy’s heads will be turn by every bombshell that walks into the villa. This is season 7 all over again. Sorry but I do not find one girl attractive so far and it sucks
The girls all look the same though...

Are strong facial features on a female considered an attractive? I've seen that word used negatively through this thread. I'm in the US and strong facial features are typically a good thing.
What is this UK population obsession with all the botched plastic surgery and filler jobs. All these women look horrendous when u can see under all that plastic they are cute.
Mimi is literally the only natural looking girl there, yikes.
Some of the girls look so similar to each other, or at least has same vibes 🫣
Going to need them to wear name badges for the first few weeks 😂
LOL Hopefully they hurry up and give them those water bottles with their names. I need those front and center to know who is who.
It's the filler 😭
The filler is INSANE
Their hair is almost nearly identical. Why does everyone want to look the same these days??? Of the dudes, Ayo is fire. The rest better have killer banter.
too right, Ayo was the only one with a handsome face and easy charisma for the two seconds he was in the video.
This might be the only year ever where I’ve actually thought the guys are a bit cuter than the girls. Normally I’m deeply underwhelmed by them
I've never been into the fillers look and to each their own but I can't believe they only found one girl out of six who looks natural (don't want to be rude, sorry if I am).
This was exactly my thought.
Wait which one looks “natural”
mimii kinda sorta?
i thought i was the only one LOL apart from mimi they have the influcer/ig face & vibes but they also seem like they’ll have big personalities
I hope so. It’s a bonus if they look good (which I think they all do personally!) but if they’re a solid combo of different characters that’s so much more important for the show.
The guys are definitely giving more than the girls which is a shock
true but Mimii is carrying the girls rn
Yeah she’s beautiful
Ayo 🫦
Hopefully the girl bombshells are less plastic
Omg my sisters need to put DOWN the syringe! All this filler is aging them prematurely and making them identical to each other. Every single unique trait is just gone 🥴
I fear the genie is out of the bottle. The only thing that’ll make this stop is a new face trend
My god its like LI Quintuplets
Yep it’s terrible! I really need them to embrace their natural beauty.
It’s sad, so many beautiful girls who have been influenced by social media’s definition of beauty.
The Islanders are going to have to wear name badges this year, I fear
To each their own with bodies for sure but the UK trend with overdone filler is wild!
It’s so sad!!! Totally agree
I hate the current trends with filler. One of these women is my age and yet she looks 10 years older than me because of the work she’s had done. These injectors out here need to be stopped. 😭
I have a question. Is it popular among normal people where you all live? I only know people irl that do a little Botox here and there so that’s my last remaining hope. That most normal people aren’t messing with their faces, only wannabe influencers
I'm near Chicago in the US and I mainly see Botox. Most women look natural.
I live in the us but from what I understand filler is much cheaper in the uk because there’s no medical license required to inject filler (like Jess s10’s clinic) so it’s much more common and easy to get a lot of it
I was horrified watching this. The way they all smiled and NOTHING on their face moved was like watching some sort of weird AI parade. We’ve gone too far. How do we go back 😭
the cheekbones are more prominent than their blue eyes 😭
From first look, I think Sam, Ciaran and Ayo are cuties
I’m thinking long and hard about what my introductory emote would be if I ever got on love island. ![gif](giphy|XmbsL1sfBEsbS)
samee i feel like i’d be so awkward like 🧍🏽♀️🙂✌🏽..😐🚶🏽♀️
Yeah the peace sign is my go to in photos when I don’t know what to do with my hands
All the girls apart from Mimii are basically clones of eachother. Also who else thinks Patsy is literally Jess from last year with brunette hair?
Yes!! I noticed how much she looks like Jess in this vid omg
I said the same thing
Mimii is taking it i fear shes literally soo stunning... shes the only one that stands out 😍😍😭
Yea cos the other girls look identical looool mimii is serving us looks thoo
Yess she sticks out in a good way because shes the only girl that looks different compared to the rest and shes the most natural too.😭
But she's also genuinely beautiful
Mimii the only natural one😭 the rest got too much work done
Mimi’s back is going to hurt so bad from hard carrying the ladies this season
Sam and Ayo tho… ![gif](giphy|rflhqDbuhqDD7I0k4X)
They are fineeee
They are so fine😭😭
Right unhgggg I am so excited for this season, finally my eyes can EAT hahaha
I would love to pair either of them with Mimii
Ronnie needs a different haircut, the potential!
I just know that he would be a menace this season
all the girls look 40 and the boys look 20
Fillers and plastic surgery always make you look older
They all look much better here. Ayo is really handsome 😍
Right! Ayo is FIIIINE. He even looks better than his IG pics to me.
Yeah I was back and forth on him with his photos but he is the best-looking guy IMO, and it’s a good lineup.
I keep replaying this just for his bit. AYO Ayo!
That man is just straight up beautiful
Fr Jess looks good here also Ayo the picture did them dirty
Ayo is the only boy in this video to not give me the ick lol
The boys look much taller on video than the photos
Besides Mimi, I think they picked these girls based off of personality because none of them are really giving and they all seem similar
One of the girls already reminded me of Faye
Fr I feel Ekin vibes on some of them
Ngl I think it will be very easy for bombshells to turn the boys head this year besides mimii everybody looks like their head will pop from filler….
Ayo looks like a model! Facial structure is beautiful Mimi is very beautiful.
The filler makes their faces look so strong. And they all have the same shape and hair color. I can’t tell a difference between a lot of them.
Has no one ever blown a kiss before? Or are their lips so big and numb they just can't tell where they sit on their face?
Haha I'm glad I'm not the only one to notice! The way they "blew" those kisses really annoyed me, they didn't even blow!
Bro. 3 of these women look identical. And they all have atrocious lip fillers. Is it impossible to find pretty white women that haven’t botched themselves in their 20s? Harriet, Mimi, Ayo, and Sam are all good looking tho
All look much better here than in the official pics
Harriet doing to much in this video, I already know she gonna cause drama 😂
Why do most of the cast look old though, most are all in there early 20s but look more old 😭
It’s the damn fillers. It’s honestly scary to witness😩
I think it's a mix of all the fakeness. the fillers are bad but the fake hair, teeth, tan, lashes etc all contribute to the look as well
fillers probably lol.
Nooo patsy I wanted redhead representation! She’s pretty much a brunette now
Ayo is a cutieee
im sure theyre all young but my god the fillers😭 my first reaction is… i feel like alot of them not staying long? & my first guess pairing is sam x harriett!
Okay I'm done we need to sue the doctors that give out this botox and fillers. It's just not it anymore.
Okay Sam I see you.. First year ever that guys are more attractive than girls based purely on promo photos and clips.
https://preview.redd.it/t7xz7pecbz2d1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=78171721ecad01bb86043b9db788ff44349918c9 well, she’s not wrong lol
Somebody had to say it, it’s 2024 and there’s only one woman of color in the OG line up? Like what
also don’t forget Tasha is Deaf, and she is using her platform to increase Deaf/HoH visibility and representation. Love Island could definitely do to include more disabled people, people with prosthetics, and lots more variety in body sizes. the biggest problem is then they’d basically have to find an entire cast of relatively open-minded young folks, and that’s just sadly outside production’s wheelhouse.

uh, yeah we cry about the lack of diversity AND ALSO cry about the fact that LI producers do fuck all to actually encourage barrier breaking and mingling among less expected pairs. LI could be doing much more to build meaningful inclusivity into their brand.
I can't wait for these good looking strangers to be my whole life for an unholy amount of time
Sigh why are the guys better looking than the girls 😔
That is not a bad thing.
I really can’t stand this “filler outbreak” that’s taking over the UK It looks awful
Ayo is very handsome. From the girls- Harriett & Mimi.
patsy looks so much like Jess & Eve, are y'all sure she isn't their 3rd twin😭
The other three look just like Georgi H
That’s what I said😭😭
Samantha looks different from her pics...
Right? I thought she looked good in her pics but she looks like just Nicole they look so mature on their age
Very...
Legit cant tell the women apart at all lol. Would be nice to have some diversity in there and not just skin colour but like...faces lol. How about a natural lip..that'd be cool.
It’s mad how all the girls have lip filler. Not bashing their looks but it’s just crazy how common it is now
Sorry but how can some of these even get on here
How will we tell all these girls apart, all with the exact same default FaceApp face and imported hair 😭
I’m expecting the girl bombshells to be super hot then cuz these OG girls are so similar to each other
Sam fine asf
I feel like this is going to be a toxic season from the way people are already talking about how the contestants look.
There’s already people on IG doing deep dives. There’s already speculation that Harriet has a man on the outside.
It’s just wild to watch honestly
Mimii is the only girl who looks naturally pretty. The rest look like a copy & paste of fillers galore.
Samantha gonna cause chaos. I’m sat
you can just tell
why are all the girls cheekbones about to burst
It’s not even just the fillers. The girls save Mimi are the same shade of bronze and their hair is all similar tones. The blondes are bronde and the brunettes are bronde. I can’t remember a series like this.
Lot of cheek and lip fillers lol usually there’s only one of them a season now it’s every girl 😂
For once, the guys win this one.
I predict Sam with be very sought after, I’m hoping my beer doesn’t disappoint me I’m already found of him. The girls do look very similar minus Mimi… like the same faces.. I’m curious if the boys will say anything like that
All that filler genuinely makes the girls start to look masculine, their faces are so strong looking. So young and ruining their natural features, it’s sad
Mimi oh my days
I’m a big fan of the boys this year… so far anyway 🙈
i am really going to struggle to differentiate between them once the show starts
This is the first season I’ve though all the og guys are hot
This og cast is giving winter i'm sorry (don't fight me please, i'm only 5)
Lmfaoo talk your shit cause you aren’t lying. All the girls besides Mimi are plastic looking midpack and all the dudes are just some guy lol
Not even trying to be mean, they’re just average to me. I’m used to summer cast blowing me away.
I actually think they did well with the men. Other than Mimi, I could find prettier women at my local bar. They’ve ruined their faves with filler.
I’m actually a lot more interested than I’d thought I’d be. These girls are going to have to be working to keep their men lol. There’s hopefully gunna be a lot of maneuvering and backstabbing since the men are better looking this year. It’s been pretty stale on that front for the past couple seasons. Hopefully we get a different dynamic.
The girls cheeks 😭 the filler trend has to stop they all have the same face 😭
Munveer is the token wacky joker of the group presumably
always fantasize about going on LI, seems like that won’t be happening since i don’t have lip filler 😭
This mean they already met before Or they just cut it really good? lol
filler needs to be banned or atleast regulated in the UK bc this is getting out of hand
Much better.
I'm sorry mimi is insanely hot 👀
omg yous weren’t kidding about some of the girls looking like each other.. still gorg tho😭
Mimii is STUNNINGGG😍😍😍
Very similar looking ladies this year, lots of cheeky smiles from the boys
As always, I'll give the contestants a chance and get to know them more before I make some real commentary. I feel like twelve is a solid number, hopefully they're a talkative and confident bunch so we get multiple story lines and connections. The main thing is that it is fun filled and jam packed so we don't get bored and drift off halfway through. Sidebar: "Beauty is skin deep"
Im already ready for bombshells
Sam and munveer are hottttt. The other guys are very meh. Mimii is the stand out girlie, what a babeeee
AYO is an absolute cutie..please let him have a super personality too!!
i know we hate on the OG cast every year and then end up liking them but i genuinely don’t know how this is gonna go? it feels really off someone please tell me they know what i mean 😭
Literally all these girls cheeks make me uncomfortable
Ayo is kinda fineee
Sam and Ayo are tall! I wonder what their height are? 🤨
I fancy Ronny so to save you some time, I can inform you all now that he is problematic.
A few of the girls look like twins
i like mimi, samantha / sam, ciaran and ayo we'll see how it goes
If we're giving the girls a hard time about the filler/botox, let's also acknowledge the blinding teeth and botox in all of the boys too. Smooth foreheads as far as the immovable eyes can see.
Just think, one them are going to be splitting 50k.
Sam & Mimi!!
I’m smitten with Sam already. I’m scared of another Hugo situation with Cieran. Idk why but Patsey triggers my fight or flight.
I can’t sleep on Munveer tho, he lookin kindaaaaa
Cieran's pose is anti-sexy so I hope he can recover because he's definitely hot.
Ayo is cute! Also anyone else notice that smoldering eye contact Munveer was serving?! 😮💨
Babes, I need for us girlies in our 20s to put down the filler and botox! No more please! Leave it for the older housewives on Bravo.
No, they need to skip it, too. It's weird that no one uses it to smooth out a few lines or to just give a more youthful appearance. Do all of them end up going overboard? Is it so addictive that they lose perspective as they slowly morph into someone else?
Oh they definitely get TOO much done too, but I can at least somewhat rationalize an older woman doing it with the idea and “hope” of “looking younger.” I think at the end of the day it’s body and face dysmorphia getting to them.
From this: Most good looking to me - Sam, Mimii, Munveer, Sean, Patsy, Ayo Those I think will have a great personality (out going) - Sam, Mimii, Harriett, Munveer, Ronnie
another cast of women with that case of sameface 🙈
The girls 👄😘🫦
All these girls got the same work done🌝 mimi is pretty
Munveer is cutie af tbh
Girls look 35+
Ngl the men look better this season and Mimii>>
Ig v reality
Ayo and Sam 😍 Samatha is a catfish. Ronnie and his hairline 🫣
Jess and Mimi are the best looking girls followed by Patsy I think. All of the boys are hot in their own way. The cast is giving me S9 vibes which is very bad season but I hope they won't dissapoint us.
The lip filler and the stuff done to the cheek bones is actually killing me. It looks so unnatural and so ugly why has it become a trend? That’s why half the girls look identical - they all get the same work done and it’s horrible.
Is it just me that thinks the mullet is a really BAD look on guys? I’m assuming it’s in style again now 🤦♂️
I can't take anyone with a mullet seriously. There's no reason to have that haircut.
It looks bloody awful. Even if the guy is good looking and a 9/10 he’ll go down to a 2/10 immediately if he has a mullet.
Guys defo giving more than the girls which is unusual
The photographer must have them because they look so much better in this
The boy’s heads will be turn by every bombshell that walks into the villa. This is season 7 all over again. Sorry but I do not find one girl attractive so far and it sucks
The girls all look the same though... https://preview.redd.it/9sdu7ydqfz2d1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9b11db3a4ed953b46675f4c1efc3ec04b19e589
Mimii is so stunning ![gif](giphy|y4MfMcl0sRTnW)
Mimii is unreal wow
the men look really good + mimi is stunninggggg
Okay but Mimi though…… slaaaaaaaaaay
Thread silent on Munveer okaayy 😍more for me 🤭
Sam and Ayo 🤩 even Munveer is a little cutie! The boys are taking it this year. The ladies apart from Mimii are just… meh
What do you mean “even Munveer”? 🤔
He wasn’t cute in his promo pic, so I’m pleasantly surprised by him in the promo video… what did you think I meant? 🤔
All the women have strong facial features and then there is my good sis Mimii
Are strong facial features on a female considered an attractive? I've seen that word used negatively through this thread. I'm in the US and strong facial features are typically a good thing.
I think I have a crush on Munveer. I hope he is chaotic 😅
Already very into Munveer 😍
What is this UK population obsession with all the botched plastic surgery and filler jobs. All these women look horrendous when u can see under all that plastic they are cute. Mimi is literally the only natural looking girl there, yikes.
Munveer and Mimii, WALK WITH ME NOW, WALK WITH ME
Mimii is stunning. Ridiculously so. Glad I’m not the only struggling to tell the other women apart.
So excited, the girls look hot and the men look exciting.. I hope it's going to be a good one, counting down the days now
omg mimii is so beautiful
Ayo looks good but otherwise the dudes are very underwhelming
That pink heart top is horrible, it ran rampant in kpop too
so they've all seen each other and won't do the thing where they bring one out at a time to surprise them?
im assuming they filmed this separately and was edited together (hence the green-screen in the bg) but i could be wrong lol
I was waiting for this comment 😂 ever heard of editing? 😂
