Once again, there’s a racial scandal involving Love Island USA. If you had a dollar for every time this happened, you’d almost have enough to cover a monthly Peacock subscription.
The latest controversy involves bombshell Alannah Keyser, who — yes, you guessed it — may have dropped the N-word in a resurfaced video.
Like clockwork, Love Island fans are activated, and the question on everyone’s mind is whether producers are going to toss her out for it.
Alannah Keyser controversy sparks backlash among Love Island USA viewers
We just met Alannah as a Casa Amor bombshell during Sunday night’s episode, and within hours of her debut, fans had already discovered a video allegedly showing her singing along to a song and using the N-word.
On top of that, sleuthing fans found an old Instagram comment where she appeared to use the word again. That was two too many for fans, who are now calling for producers to remove her from the villa immediately.
“You know the drill. GET HER OUT,” urged one person on Twitter/X, tagging the Love Island USA account.
“I’m deeply offended, kick her off or I’m deleting my Peacock account,” another fan threatened.
Of course, Love Island USA fans have been down this road before. They already removed one person from this season for similar behavior, and in Season 7, producers sent two Islanders packing for resurfaced racially insensitive comments.
At this point, the frustration from fans goes beyond just the Islanders. They’re also annoyed with the casting teams letting this stuff slip through the cracks.
“How is this such a common occurrence?” one fan questioned.
Another added, “Do they even f*cking do research at this point? Because how was this so simple for people to find and yet production didn’t? Love Island needs to f*cking step it up. second person this season dude.”
One fan even went as far as to theorize that producers were “doing this on purpose,” and while we can’t speak to that, what we do know is that this probably isn’t the last we’ll hear about Alannah. She raised more than a few eyebrows in her Casa Amor debut. But whether she gets to stay is now very much up in the air.
Love Island USA streams on Peacock with new episodes every night except Wednesdays at 9/8c.
