'Love Island USA' season 7: Meet the 10 new Islanders entering the villa

Yahoo5 days ago

Welcome back to Love Island USA — it's time to break hearts and find forever.
The 10 new Islanders of the seventh season of the popular Peacock series have been revealed, and they run the gamut from coffee shop heiress and pool boy to short king and astrology obsessive. The American version of the popular British reality series returns to Fiji, with Vanderpump Rules alum/Scandoval survivor Ariana Madix and comedian Iain Stirling reprising their roles as host and narrator.
"Temptations will rise and drama will ensue as Islanders face brand new couples' challenges, jaw-dropping twists and turns, and even a few surprise guests in the vibrant Fiji villa," reads the official logline for the new season.
Viewers will once again be empowered to play casting director by voting for their favorite couples on the Love Island App. So it's time to see who's breaking out ahead of the pack with a good first impression, and who's starting this race off with a limp.
The official teaser for Love Island USA season 7, and portraits of the new cast of Islanders, are below.
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Fun Fact: Ace identifies as a "short king." Still, he has "no problems talking to tall ladies," consistent with his conviction that the heart cannot be measured in feet and inches.
Hometown: Northville, MI
Fun Fact: Fun-loving Michigan boy Austin has a jovial spirit and the perfect job to keep him Love Island ready — pool boy. "I know I look damn good while cleaning a pool," he jokes, adding that he also has a "pretty decent bulge — but that's because I stuff it." See, fun!
Hometown: Honolulu, HI
Fun Fact: No stranger to the endless waves and sunshine of Fiji coming from Hawaii, Belle-A says she's most comfortable in the kitchen of her family's coffee shop, with "flour all over my face." Belle-A isn't looking for grand pronouncements of love; she's content to "make everybody's day better by handing them coffee all day," a gratitude exercise she describes as "amazing."
Hometown: Orlando, FL
Fun Fact: To the Capricorns and Virgos out there studiously preparing to meet the new Islanders, Chelley is your girl. "I'm big on zodiac signs," she explains. Though the proudly Haitian Floridian won't "fully judge you" based on your sign, she might indulge in a few preconceptions.
Hometown: Raleigh, NC
Fun Fact: Huda is done with the single life. She's tired of "going on stupid dates," and even more through with guys "at the club texting a million different girls." Huda is heading to Fiji with a simple goal in mind — to find her "lifelong partner."
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Fun Fact: Whoever said boys don't cry. Jeremiah does, proudly proclaiming, "I really don't care if I cry in front of you." On the "f--- boy to great guy scale" that he just invented, he swears he's mostly a great guy, "most of the time."
Hometown: Jacksonville, FL
Fun Fact: Adrenaline junkies apply here. Nicolas is "down for anything," whether that be "skydiving, motorcycling," or going shirtless on television before the world and Ariana Madix. "I'm ready for the summer of my life," he says.
Hometown: Decatur, AL
Fun Fact: Olandria is such a sports lover, her favorite dance is a "touchdown dance." The Alabama native is a proud first generation college student who proclaims, "college football is my life."
Hometown: Oklahoma City, OK
Fun Fact: Yeehaw, y'all. Oklahoma's own Taylor is a self-identified cowboy who "was on a horse before I could walk." Grab your spurs, or don't, because he's down for a "city girl," so long as she has a "big booty."
Hometown: Miami, FL
Fun Fact: Yulissa is looking for a fresh start in Fiji, having just come out of a nine-year relationship. But she's "glad he broke my heart, because look at me here." Though she's grown stronger from the experience, she wants her fellow Islanders to know she is "a baby - I'm 4'10."
Love Island USA season 7 streams exclusively on Peacock beginning Tuesday, June 3, with new episodes dropping every day at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. ET during premiere week. New episodes will stream Thursdays through Tuesdays thereafter.

Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt's Daughter Shiloh Reintroduces Herself With New Name

What's in a name? For Shiloh Jolie, quite a bit. On May 30, Variety reported that the 19-year-old attended French designer Isabel Marant's capsule launch with Net-A-Porter. But she wasn't there as just another A-list offspring. She was a choreographer with a new name. Gone was 'Shiloh Jolie,' who reemerged simply as Shi and reportedly lent her choreography talents to the debut of singer-songwriter Luella's new single, 'Naïve.' This isn't the first evolution of the teen's identity. In 2024, she legally dropped 'Pitt' from her surname, becoming Shiloh Jolie — trimming the hyphen and, perhaps, some history. She's not alone. That same year, her younger sister Vivienne was credited as 'Vivienne Jolie' for her work on the Broadway musical 'The Outsiders.' It's unclear whether Vivienne's new surname has been made official, but the public-facing change was unmistakable. On May 29, Pitt broke his long silence on his lengthy divorce from Jolie. Asked if he felt relief now that the proceedings had ended, he replied: 'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing.' 'Just something coming to fruition. Legally,' he added. Jolie and Pitt share six children. Four still carry the surname 'Jolie-Pitt,' for now.

IPL 2025 Final: Rishi Sunak spotted cheering for RCB in stands after Krunal Pandya's breakthrough

By News Desk Published on June 3, 2025, 22:37 IST There was a surprise star in the stands at the IPL 2025 final in Ahmedabad — Former UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was spotted at the Narendra Modi Stadium, enjoying the blockbuster clash between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Punjab Kings. Sunak, seated alongside ICC Chairman Jay Shah, was seen applauding enthusiastically after RCB all-rounder Krunal Pandya took a key wicket to further dent Punjab Kings' chase. The cameras caught Sunak on his feet, smiling and clapping as Pandya struck — a moment that quickly went viral on social media, with many fans noting that the former British PM appeared to be backing RCB in the high-stakes final. At the time of the moment, Punjab Kings were 88/3 after 11 overs, still needing 103 runs from 54 balls to chase down RCB's 190/9. While cricket is hugely popular among the British Indian community, this rare public appearance by Sunak at an IPL final added an extra layer of glamour and global buzz to the night's proceedings.

Anthony Joshua should wait for Tyson Fury, rather than rolling the dice in boxing's most unforgiving division

British sporting rivalries have a unique way of trumping any other hand on the table. In truth, we are an emotional nation, easily seduced by tribalistic loyalties and addictive storytelling. Whether it's geographical, historical or simply born out of close competition, a worthy dance partner can ultimately define your standing in your chosen sport's annals. And these dance partners can rarely be spoken of in isolation. You are bound together as alternating chapters inside the same story, battling for an edge in relevance way beyond your day of retirement. Advertisement It's the conversations down the pub that still end in blazing arguments, even after the dust has seemingly settled on years of debate. It's Steve Evett vs. Sebastian Coe, Steve Davis vs. Dennis Taylor, Chris Eubank Sr. vs. Nigel Benn, Liverpool vs. Manchester United, and even before they have touched gloves, it's Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua. Fury and Joshua's names have followed each other's around the globe across the last decade. Both have scaled the summit of the heavyweight mountain from opposite sides taking contrasting routes, have lost their footing, have fallen off, have climbed back up, but are yet to have laid eyes upon each other through the mist of one of sport's steepest and most dangerous climbs. Roll the clock back 13 years and you'd be laughed out of the Finchley ABC for suggesting the hypothetical decision Joshua may have to make in the summer of 2025: Continue making more money than he and his great grandchildren could ever spend, or wait for a legacy-defining fight with his ultimate dance partner: Fury. Advertisement At 35 years of age, this decision is now more important than ever. Joshua has been kept on the shelf since suffering the fourth defeat of his career to Daniel Dubois this past September due to required elbow surgery, and despite what his dough-eyed promotor Eddie Hearn will claim, Joshua isn't getting any better. Turki Alalshikh and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia don't care about Joshua's legacy or what stories will be told about him down the local pub in 25 years time, but the pride of a fighter should never be underestimated. A reported two-fight deal with Riyadh Season is on the table for Joshua's return, topping up his staggering bank balance but, importantly, rolling the dice on what remains of his career. Dillian Whyte and Jared Anderson are the two opponents rumored to be part of this deal and both are men that, on their day, could beat a faded Joshua. Hearn has since confirmed this, adding that there are possibly another three names in the mix. Alalshikh's pit of money seemingly has no floor, but how much is enough when you're risking bowing out against an opponent that you: A) did beat, and, B) would have beaten handedly in your pomp? Fortunately for Joshua, he has carved out a career of such success that the decision on the path he takes will be solely left up to him — but that's not to say he won't be pulled left and right by those who still wish to benefit by his behemoth pull as a prizefighter. Does Tyson Fury have one more left in him? (REUTERS/Hamad I Mohammed) (REUTERS / Reuters) Both Joshua and Fury are two-time heavyweight champions of the world and deep into their 30s. They have both expressed an internal addiction to the sport, but perhaps only a meeting between the pair could now come close to scratching what itch is left for either in boxing. Advertisement Fury is retired at the time of writing. But he continues to drop hints on social media regarding a return to action — something that won't be a surprise in the slightest from a man who changes his mind and behavior more often than the British summer. The 'Gypsy King' claims a third fight with Oleksandr Usyk — an undisputed king of the division who handed him his two career losses — is his only route back into the ring, but that ship has rightly sailed. Fury options are perhaps more limited than Joshua's himself, and the quicker he realizes this, the quicker this all-British heavyweight fight can be penned. Chris Eubank Jr. and Conor Benn's slugfest at the end of April underlined the British appetite for a domestic rivalry. There were no official accolades on the line that evening inside the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but pride and bragging rights would've trumped any trinket that the governing bodies could've attempted to throw at the pair of born adversaries. Joshua and Fury's rivalry has been born through competition — and if they decide to pass on fighting each other, then both of their boxing stories will end unfinished.
