Who are the new Love Island contestants? An analysis based entirely on their looks

There are 11 new contestants going into the house. This is (probably) what they're like...

Here we…… here we……. here we fucking go!

There’s a gaggle of new contestants entering Love Island on Thursday night and I for one am sufficiently horned about it.

It’s all going to kick off, there’s going to be so many love triangles they’re probably going to use this year’s house as a point of reference in the GCSEs:

‘Kem fancies Amber, but Amber fancies Simon. If you add eleven new contestants to the island, how many of these boys on paper will be literally Amber’s type? Please explain your workings’.

Because I’ve little else to do with my time, I’ve already decided what every single one of these contestants is going to be like, based purely on their promotional photographs.

Steve

Occupation: He’s a personal trainer and former member of So Solid Crew, noted rivals of Blazin Squad. Steve once modelled for stock images, which ended up being used in a commercial for haemorrhoid cream.

Fancies: Katie Price, but will settle for Olivia or Camilla “if she’d put out”.

Interesting Fact: Steve’s favourite movie is Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp’s Adventure

Occupation: Chyna is a glamour model who’s worked on such prestigious campaigns as the Argos Summer Sale Bonanza, Aldi’s Toilet Cleaner Giveaway and Krufts’ Dog Handler Callout.

Hobbies: She likes watching YouTube makeup tutorials and updating her lifestyle blog which centres around the nutritional benefits of licking yoghurt lids.

Fancies: Jason Statham, but will settle for Dom since he’s likely to be vulnerable yet angry after “his Mrs went off shagging Mike”.

Marino
