Love Island's Shakira Khan reveals the only former star of show she would crack on with - and warns cast 'I'll argue until I have no breath left' thanks to fiery temper
Love Island's Shakira Khan has revealed the former star of the show she would crack on with and has issued a warning over her fiery personality.
Shakira, from Manchester, is one of the 12 new islanders who have jetted off to Mallorca and is set to step into the iconic villa tomorrow.
The 22-year-old has revealed she has bumped into several islanders when out partying.
'So I'm a bit of a Manchester gal on a night out, and I definitely like to be in the VIP area sometimes,' she said.
'I've run into the likes of Callum Jones, Jess White, Tom Clare, Casey, Adam from season two. So definitely a few islanders bopping about in Manny.'

Though nothing has come from her meetings with the former Love Island stars, Shakira shared there was one in particular who takes her fancy.
'If Callum Jones was single, I would have give that a little try I think,' she revealed. 'I knew he had a girlfriend, so I stayed clear, I did get a little wink though.'
The stunner has admitted she is 'so stubborn' and is good at 'winning arguments'.
Her fiery personality could come out in the villa as she's warned: 'I could argue with a brick wall.
'If arguing was an Olympic sport, I'd have gold medal, and I will just argue in the face I'm even if I'm wrong, I will argue in your face just until, until I have no breath left. I'm stubborn.'
Shakira explained how she's 'not the one to start the argument' but is willing to 'finish it'.
'I won't go hunting for the drama but if someone wants to pick a fight with me, girls or not, then they're gonna get a response,' she added.
The new islander said: 'I'm definitely a friends girl. So if you're one of my really close girls, everything's off limits, like I won't speak to your fella.
'Got your back for everything. But in general, as the general female population, that's a lot of people to have everyone's back. So yeah, I'd say I'm a friends girl.'
The stunner's Instagram page is filled with picturesque travel snaps from Haiti, Dubai and New York - and she's not afraid of modelling a bikini.
Shakira's requirements in a partner include being 'tall, charming, witty, with big arms, a good smile and just really funny'.

The 1% Club wipes out seven players instantly on easy 90% question – but would you have known the answer?
A QUESTION on The 1% Club wiped out players from the get-go - despite being deemed as easy. The popular quiz show, fronted by Lee Mack, is known for leaving players with their minds boggling thanks to its tough questions as the game goes on. 3 3 However for most of the 100 players, they manage to sail through the first few round which are deemed easy thanks to most of the general public being able to correctly answer them. But for one episode of the Saturday night quiz favourite, seven people fell at the very first hurdle. They all failed to correctly identify the answer to the opening 90% question - which was all about letters. Reading the question aloud, Lee said: "Which of the following words still makes a valid word if you change the first letter to the next letter in the alphabet?" Lee then told the players of the three choices they had to pick from, which were - Page, Rage and Wage. With 30 seconds on the clock, the 100 players did their best to attempt to answer the question. However, for seven of them, they could not get to the right answer. Lee then confirmed that the answer was in fact, Rage. By switching the 'R' to an 'S' - the following letter in the alphabet - players were left with the word, Sage. Page would have produced "oage", whilst Wage would have read "xage". The 1% Club wipes out 20 people on tricky numbers question One player who got it wrong admitted it was his "biggest fear" to go out on the 90% question. He told Lee that he panicked and failed to read the question properly before selecting the answer as "wage". Hardest Quiz Show Questions Would you know the answers to some of quizzing TV's hardest questions Who Wants To Be A Millionaire - Earlier this year, fans were left outraged after what they described as the "worst" question in the show's history. Host Jeremy Clarkson asked: 'From the 2000 awards ceremony onwards, the Best Actress Oscar has never been won by a woman whose surname begins with which one of these letters?' The multiple choice answers were between G, K, M and W. In the end, and with the £32,000 safe, player Glen had to make a guess and went for G. It turned out to be correct as Nicole Kidman, Frances McDormand and Kate Winslet are among the stars who have won the Best Actress gong since 2000. The 1% Club - Viewers of Lee Mack's popular ITV show were left dumbfounded by a question that also left the players perplexed. The query went as follows: "Edna's birthday is on the 6th of April and Jen's birthday falls on the 15th of October, therefore Amir's birthday must be the 'X' of January." It turns out the conundrum links the numbers with its position in the sentence, so 6th is the sixth word and 15th is the fifteenth word. Therefore, Amir's birthday is January 24th, corresponding to the 24th word in the sentence. The Chase - The ITV daytime favourite left fans scratching their heads when it threw up one of the most bizarre questions to ever grace the programme. One of the questions asked the player: "Someone with a nightshade intolerance should avoid eating what?" The options were - sweetcorn, potatoes, carrots - with Steve selecting sweetcorn but the correct answer was potatoes. 3

West Lothian star Paige Turley to join fellow Scottish musician on the Pride of Scotland red carpet
Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners. You can check out at any time. More info West Lothian Love Island star Paige Turley and Saint Phnx's Stevie Jukes are used to gracing the red carpet but both agree no other awards show will ever top Pride of Scotland. The bubbly pair, who are red carpet hosts at Monday night's (June 23) glittering event, will chat to the inspirational winners and celebrity guests as they make their way into Glasgow's Hilton for this year's star-studded ceremony, reports The Daily Record. They say they can't wait to bring the nation all the gossip and style live from the red carpet which promises to be one of the most star-studded yet. This is Paige's fourth year as red carpet host and the singer from Fauldhouse, West Lothian, is looking forward to teaming up with Stevie and being the ying to his yang. The 27-year-old, who co-hosted last year with Love Island's Laura Anderson, said: 'I'm excited about hosting with Stevie as he is a really lovely guy and hopefully we will compliment each other. 'I'm all about the style and fashion and he can talk to folk about other things. Our job is to put everyone at their ease because the red carpet can be a daunting place, especially for the winners. 'It's my absolutely favourite night of the year as the awards shine a light on people who have been doing so much for others but never seek any recognition.' Paige, who has been travelling all over Scotland with the Big Shiny Disco Brunch Crew, added: 'I'm bringing my dad with me again this year as he absolutely loves it. 'Two years ago he was carrying my handbag for me and his hero Graeme Souness came across to him and said 'Like your bag big man.' He was stoked. 'I'm also bringing my boyfriend Kieran with me. It will be his first time on a red carpet in Scotland and I know he is going to love it as much as I do.' It's the first time Stevie, 40, who formed chart toppers Saint Phnx with brother Alan, 37, in 2016, has been on the other side of the mic but says he is suited and booted and raring to go. The dad-of-two, from Wishaw, North Lanarkshire, said: 'I'm buzzing about Monday night and have had my velvet jacket, shiny shoes and dickie bow looked out for weeks. 'My brother has been ribbing me about it and keeps saying things like 'Here comes big red carpet Steve.' He thinks he is hilarious but just wait until it's his turn to be interviewed! 'It's the first time I have ever done anything like this but I would love to work in radio so this will be good practice as I will have to think on my feet. 'You would think I would be nervous but I'm not. For the past year Alan and I have been doing workshops in schools and trying to sing on a Monday morning in a gold gym hall in front o0 kids pretty much prepares you for anything.' Stevie, whose new single 'Arabella' - a collaboration with singer Nathan Evans - is out next week, added: 'I'm really looking forward to working with Paige. We met at the Pride of Scotland awards a few years ago when Saint Phnx were performing and we hit it off right away. 'I've been given a sneak peak at all the winners and I can't wait to meet them on the red carpet and put a face to their names. 'The only thing I am a wee bit worried about is recognising the celebrities but I'll just give Paige a wee nudge and hopefully she will tell me who they are.' From acts of kindness and selfless bravery to raising millions for charity, it's no wonder the Daily Record Pride of Scotland Awards with P&O Cruises is the People's Oscars. The combination of big hearts and big stars have made our annual awards, which began in 2020 and will once again be compared by Elaine C Smith and Sanjeev Kohli, a runaway success. Although Stevie, who is dad to Jacob, 18 and Charlie, nine, has never presented at the awards before he has performed twice and knows just how emotional the night can be. Join Edinburgh Live's Whatsapp Community here and get the latest news sent straight to your messages. He says he will never forget meeting Child of Courage Zac Gunn, who sadly passed away earlier this month after receiving a long-awaited lung transplant. Stevie, whose single Happy Place - written after losing his dad to pulmonary fibrosis - topped the Scottish charts in 2021, said: 'That wee boy's cheeky smile will stay with me forever. He was such a funny wee guy and he had an aura which lit up the room. 'My wife is a neonatal midwife at Wishaw General and looked after Zac when he was born. We were both devastated when he passed away. 'We met him when he won his award and we have kept in touch with the family ever since. Like Zac, so many of the Pride of Scotland winners end up leaving a massive impression on your heart.' He added: 'Last year it was Lochlan Murdoch whose story really impressed me. The teenager has Type 1 diabetes and set up a charity to help educate sports teams and clubs about the condition. 'He's just a wee guy who has taken a difficult scenario in his life and done something positive about it to help others which I find really inspiring.' Paige, who won season six of Love Island with ex Finley Tapp, admits she will be stocking up on paper hankies before Monday as she always has a good greet. The singer, who is also a Pride of Scotland judge, said: 'I was blubbing in the judging room and I haven't even met the winners yet. 'So many of the unsung heroes have made a lasting impression on me. People like the beautiful little Mila Sneddon who battled leukaemia and won the heart of the Princess of Wales during lockdown. 'I also love the pure Scottishness of the winners. Where else in the world would you meet a granny who tackled a burglar and a wee pony wearing a kilt?' Stevie, who is working on a Collaboration album with Nathan Evans and is just back from a joint European tour, recalls the moment he met his hero Rangers goalie Allan McGregor. He said: 'As everyone knows Alan and I are massive Rangers fans. We met Greegsy at the awards a couple of years ago and ended up having a few drinks with him in the bar afterwards. 'My brother ended up getting Allan to take invisible penalties at him. We ended up becoming friends with him and he invited us into the box at his testimonial. 'We've been out with him a few times now he has publicly admitted Saint Phnx are his favourite band. I've gone to heaven with that one.' He added: 'Pride has become a very special part of my life and I am honoured to have been asked to be a part of it again this year. There's just something magical about the awards and I can't wait to pull on my suit and go red carpet live.'
