She announced the show's first ever American bombshell and immediately gave her the power to steal a boy.
Las Vegas VIP waitress Toni swiped Ben - leaving Burnley lass Shakira single.
Shakira then had 24 hours to make a new connection or be dumped from the island.
If Shakira could convince a boy to split from his partner she'd be saved.
When Maya Jama returned to the villa, three lads said they were willing to leave their couple and stood up for Shakira.
Harry, Conor and Blu all threw their hat in the ring.
But Conor, Helena's partner, and Blu, who is in a couple up with Alima, had to awkwardly sit back down.
Taking to X, one viewer said: "It must be so awkward to have stood up and not get chosen… the second hand embarrassment is crazy."
A second echoed: "Imagine having to sit back down next to the girl u just publicly said you'd dump after not getting chosen pmsl."
And a third said: "No because the thought of the boys that don't get picked having to sit back down acting like nothing has happened."
Love Island fans name show's real villain branding them 'rotten to the core' - blonde Meg during the divided girls chat
The ITV2 show beauties were left worried last night when Shakira confessed she was interested in "everyone".
Shakira, 22, ruffled feathers with her antics.
She pulled Dejon - who is coupled up with Meg - for a chat first.
Shakira then wasted no time and asked Harry for a chat on the terrace and things quickly turned flirty.
Shakira teases: 'Haza you little minx!'
Harry then replies: 'It's day two come on let's keep it PG.'
Putting the effort in to find a new connection, Shakira then pulled Conor for a chat and he told her: 'You surprised me, you came in with massive energy, but I feel like you're not like that, you're chill and smart.'
Shakira admitted: 'I love the Irish accent, it's sexy! I've never dated an Irish guy.'
She also caught up with Blu telling him: 'I think it's good cause it gives everyone a kick up the bum…I think you've got a good vibe…you're very calming and I don't have to put on a bravado.'
Their flirty banter came after fans had called for the lad to be kicked out - and his partner saved.
Shakira's effort didn't stop there as she also pulled Tommy by the pool telling him: 'I think it's best I try to get to know everyone.'
