Love Island Season 7 editing errors revealed

Hindustan Times15 hours ago
Love Island Season 7 is back. But the latest offering of the popular reality show seems to be catching more eyeballs for its editing slips rather than the steamy participants. Eagle-eyed viewers have been quick to spot multiple editing gaffes in the latest season and poke fun at them. Love Island USA Season 7 (Love Island USA)
During episode 8 which aired on June 10, a noticeable slip appeared during a game of 'pucker or pie' in the Fiji Villa. Olandria Carthen stood in front of the audience and asked her fellow islanders, 'Which islander do you think is most likely to take a relationship to make it to the final?" In a hilarious yet awkward moment, the scene cuts to Carthen seated on the bleachers behind Cierra Ortega and Nic Vansteenberghe, reacting to the question with shock. Orange to blue
New Islander Vanna Einderson was seen chatting with TJ Palma during a Casa Amor episode. The scene showed her starting the conversation with an orange cup in hand which promptly switches to a blue one mid-conversation. The much-anticipated Casa Amor twist kicked off on the show in the episode aired on June 23.

Carthen's stint with editing errors continued in a subsequent episode when her former beau Taylor Williams pulled her in for a conversation after being paired up with Clarke Carraway in the Casa Amor shift. The scene started with Carthen in a black bikini which instantly switched to a brown one-piece mid-scene with no explanation. Huda Mustafa's side-eye
One of the major editing slips happened during a particular episode where Jeremiah Brown was seen bringing Iris Kendall and Andreina Santos breakfast in their dressing room, an action read as 'making a move' in the Love Island universe. The scene cuts to Brown's former flame Huda Mastafa making a side glance at the move. Many viewers pointed out gaps in this edit by claiming that Mustafa wasn't even present in the room for this to happen.
As per USA Today, a team of 30 editors and 20 producers (as of 2024) is responsible for making sure that the 24-hour-long footage recorded at the villa gets cut and parceled into an hour-long episode by the next evening.

"A lot of people look at conversations and they seem a little bit cut up or they seem very short. You're only seeing two to three minutes of maybe like two to three hour long conversations," explained Season 5 cast member Johnny Garcia in a TikTok posted on June 19. "So just remember that. It's easy to cut thing up, and it's easy to make things look a certain way." The show also makes use of opaque cups to avoid visible continuity errors that might be spotted with the liquid levels in transparent glasses.
New episodes of Love Island Season 7 are released daily (except Wednesdays) at 9 PM ET on Peacock.

Love Island USA fans want Cierra Ortega removed after racial slur resurfaces

Love Island USA fans are not too happy with contestant Cierra Ortega right now. A screenshot of her Instagram Stories, from 2020, has resurfaced. In the post, Ortega, who was 25 at the time, shared a selfie while sitting in a medspa chair. She was talking about getting Botox and how it helps her stop frowning when she is thinking or focusing. As per a report by Perez Hilton, Ortega wrote, 'Botox isn't for everyone but I love it for me!!! I am incredibly expressive with my face and I catch myself frowning for no reason throughout the day when I'm focusing on something or thinking too hard lol' But things took a wrong turn when Ortega made an insensitive comment while describing her smile.

The participant's old post is now going viral. Love Island USA fans are expressing their disappointment by sharing posts on social media platforms. Many are even calling for her to be removed from season 7 of the popular reality show. A user wrote, 'Get Cierra Ortega off your show. This is now the third time I'm seeing she used the slur for asians. Y'all rightfully kicked off Yulissa for saying the n word, what about Cierra? Or does racism against asians not matter to you guys?' Someone asked, 'So will the show address the racial slur used by Cierra? A lot of rumblings happening online and there's supposedly 2-3 instances of her using the racial slur. Just curious if Love island is aware?' A person reposted screenshots of Ortega's post. 'Found this on a fp and this should definitely be shared,' they wrote. Premiered on June 3, Love Island USA Season 7 is available for streaming on Peacock. This time, a brand-new cast of singles has entered the villa. Contestants, including Andreina Santos, Austin Shepard and Huda Mustafa, are all hoping to find love.

In one clip, he was seen strolling down the city's streets, exuding his usual calm and composed demeanor. The ruler, without any apparent security entourage or fanfare, appeared completely at ease, blending into the vibrant London environment with little attention. Another video captured Sheikh Mohammed entering a building lobby in the upscale Knightsbridge area. His visit was brief and low-key, reflecting his preference for simplicity and privacy while abroad. Perhaps the most engaging video was captured at a traffic light, where Sheikh Mohammed was seen waiting in his car. A passerby noticed him, waved, and the ruler responded with a brief wave of his own. The interaction was fleeting but highlighted his approachable and down-to-earth nature. The user who shared the video added the caption: "POV: Chatting with the ruler of Dubai while waiting for a traffic light!" This light-hearted moment quickly gained traction online, with many viewers noting the ruler's openness during the casual encounter. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Secure Your Child's Future with Strong English Fluency Planet Spark Learn More Undo The Royal Family's Strong Connection to London The UAE royal family, especially Sheikh Mohammed, has a long-standing relationship with London.

During that visit, he became the first official guest at the opening of Parker's London, the UK branch of the popular Dubai-born restaurant chain. His visit was considered a significant moment for the Emirati brand, which proudly shared images of the visit online, underscoring the ruler's support for local businesses and talent on the international stage. Despite the grandeur of the occasion, Sheikh Mohammed's presence remained humble, embodying his characteristic simplicity and grace.
