Ace Greene, Austin Shepard and Jeremiah Brown: Meet the male contestants of Love Island USA season 7
A post shared by Peacock (@peacock)
The cast will reportedly expand and revolve throughout the run of the season.
Here's all we know about three of the male members set to connect (or break) hearts this season:
At 22 years old, Ace Greene is set to become the youngest islander this season. As a native Los Angeles boy, Greene has lived in California all his life. He has made a name for himself as a content creator with moves by frequently sharing posts on Tiktok demonstrating his superior dancing skills. He recently hit a milestone of one million followers on the platform.
Growing up with Hollywood all around him, dance probably came quite naturally to Greene and has now materialized into a lifelong passion. Using this skill, Greene frequently invites creators to collaborate and create challenges with him besides giving tutorials to his fan base. Fans of the show are likely already familiar with Greene given his frequent interactions on Instagram Live and regular posts from his daily life. He also appeared in an interview at The Jennifer Hudson Show earlier this year.

Though his grid leave much up to imagination, Austin Shepard's sharp looks and mysterious aura have already led fans to be curious about him. The 26-year-old Floridian was originally born in native Northville, Michigan, and recently made the switch to sunny settings. He did a couple of small jobs to get through the early years but found his calling in creating social media content and cleaning pools.
Shepard appears to have been a party-obsessed guy in his earlier years but hopefully now expects to find love on the show (or not, you never know). Although his grid is relatively empty, Shepard's TikTok and Instagram stories have always been quite filled with content from his daily life.

Self-described as a 'communication nerd' and an 'emotional type of guy who isn't afraid to cry in front of his girl', Jeremiah Brown has quite an active social media profile. The model appears to enjoy basketball and shares frequent posts from his modeling gigs with brands such as Jaxxon and True Religion. He ranks himself as a three to four on the good guy to f**k boy scale, signaling loads of swoon-worthy and tear-jerking moments from his time on the show.

Sydney Sweeney's denim ad got cancelled for Nazi propaganda? Now American Eagle just dropped the mic saying, 'it's just jeans, not genes'
Sydney Sweeney and American Eagle are deep in the fashion trenches this week, and it is all because of... jeans. Or rather, genes. The 27-year-old Euphoria actress starred in a denim ad campaign with the cheeky line, 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' and the internet immediately lost its collective mind. American Eagle vs the internet: The great jeans meltdown The pun, clearly riffing on both genetics and denim, was too much for some users to handle. Social media lit up with backlash, accusing the brand of toeing dangerously close to Nazi ideology due to the campaign's emphasis on Sweeney's blonde hair and blue eyes. One user even predicted the ad would end up 'in history books.' Talk about drama in the group chat. Critics cry fascism, others call it a stretch TikTok and Instagram users had some strong opinions, calling the ad 'Nazi propaganda weird' and 'fascist-coded.' The combination of a conventionally attractive white woman praising her 'great genes' stirred a cultural pot no brand wants to boil over. One person remarked that the visual message felt straight out of a fascist handbook. Another chimed in saying the ad felt 'like Nazi s–t,' throwing all chill out the window. Even celebrities jumped in. Lizzo posted a photoshopped version of herself in the same denim outfit, captioned, 'My jeans are black…' Meanwhile, Doja Cat made a TikTok mocking Sweeney's ad voiceover with an exaggerated accent. The sarcasm was thick, the eye-rolls even thicker. AE finally responds… kinda After days of being dragged, American Eagle issued a statement trying to pull the brakes on the internet spiral. They clarified the campaign was only about the jeans—her jeans, her story, her confidence. The brand reassured fans that their denim is for everyone and that 'great jeans look good on everyone.' However, AE seems to be slowly nudging Sydney out of the spotlight. Their latest promo featured other models, captioned: 'Denim on denim on denim… AE has great jeans.' Subtle? Maybe. Strategic? Absolutely. Controversy sells… apparently Despite the drama, AE's stock surged over 10% after the campaign launched. While the court of public opinion is still divided, the brand's bottom line says otherwise. Whether accidental or genius marketing, one thing is clear, this campaign has legs.

After 8 years, the lo-fi girl has finally graduated- and the internet is nostalgic
For years, she was always there, hunched over her desk, headphones on, scribbling in her notebook while a cat dozed nearby. Day or night, rain or shine, the Lofi Girl never stopped studying. But this week, something changed. Jade graduated. In a quiet yet emotional update, the beloved animated character from YouTube's Lofi Hip Hop Radio – Beats to Relax/Study/Livestream was seen in a clip wearing a graduation cap and holding a laptop that simply read: 'THE END.' 'Finally finished with all my homework. I don't know what I learnt, but I know I'm done learning,' she said with a laugh, recreating the dialogue from a teen sitcom that has become a trend on TikTok. After nearly eight years of nonstop studying, she finally closed the books—and fans everywhere are feeling it. Created by French producer Dimitri Somogyi (formerly under the alias ChilledCow), the channel began streaming chill, instrumental hip hop beats in 2017. Colombian-French artist Juan Pablo Machado brought the iconic study girl to life visually, drawing her in a softly lit room, always focused, always listening. That looped animation, paired with the constant music, turned into a kind of digital sanctuary for students, remote workers, coders, writers, or anyone needing some background calm. What made it more than just music was the routine. She became a companion. Through all-nighters, study marathons, and lonely work sessions, Lofi Girl was the quiet friend who never left the room. The stream even played continuously to avoid YouTube ads from cutting in. Over the years, the channel survived takedowns, copyright strikes, and even a rebrand—switching from ChilledCow to Lofi Girl in 2021. And it grew. With more than 15 million subscribers today, the original stream now has siblings: synthwave radio, summer lofi, jazz lofi. But none have the same emotional pull. It's not the end of the stream, the music still plays on, but it does mark the end of an era. And on social media, the reactions say it all: One user said, 'NO! It can't be! What will I listen to now?!' Another commented, 'She studied longer than most of us ever did, she deserves all the honors and a lifetime playlist of relaxation.' A third user said, 'Can we petition to have her studied for like 10 more years? We need her.' What happens next is anyone's guess. However, it will be interesting to see what happens next in the universe of Lo-Fi Girl.
