Example Sentences
- "Worlds apart! Love Islanders Camilla Thurlow and Jamie Jewitt post about their 'incredible' trip to Greek refugee camp (while their co-stars 'charge thousands' to hit the party circuit)"
- "I spotted five soap stars, three Love Island finalists, two Hollywood A-listers and… GLORY BE. Sam Heughan himself. He was deep in conversation with one of the Love Islanders, who’d dressed as if she was still on a desert island in the middle of the summer."
- "But beneath the tattooed skin it soon turned out that the Rainbow Islanders were pretty much as boring as the Love Island'''ers had been. Without the romantic tension that had been the only reason for the show ever existing, the whole thing was a bust."
- "I’ve not seen Love Island, but Poppy told me the contestants have sex with each other right in front of the cameras – Faith didn’t sleep with Jerry, nor was she planning to, but we all agreed he’d make an interesting on-screen date. Jerry was well up for it throughout the planning process, though Poppy had warned that many ex-Love Islanders require psychological counselling after they exit the show."
- "The Love Islanders are tempted to participate by the seductive offer of public attention, “the scarcest of all commodities” (Bauman 1992, xx). Such attention is in itself potentially damaging. Caroline Flack, the presenter of the first five seasons of Love Island, took her own life in February 2020, with “damaging social media posts” and intrusive media coverage cited as contributing to her death (Proctor 2020)."
- "Many broad-brushstroke criticisms have been applied to Love Islanders, one of the most widespread being our stupidity. I found that particularly frustrating. It is very dangerous to characterise a group of people as stupid."
