Love Island USA Season 7 Episode 27: Release Date, Where to Watch, What to Expect From Voting Day, More
What secrets unfolded in Love Island Season 7 Episode 26?
Pepe Garcia did not hold back, boldly asking Chelley Bissainthe, Cierra Ortega, and Olandria Carthen about their unexpected plan to kick out Hannah Fields. Amaya Espinal's overly romantic actions towards many Islanders put her on the back burner with them, as they questioned her real intentions in the game. A lot of fingers are being pointed at each other. Arguably, this season's controversial contestant, Huda Mustafa, was put back on the hot seat, this time alongside Chris Seeley, who had his own set of troubles brewing.
While Love Island Season 7 will not be on today, it is expected to resume airing on Thursday, where a crucial vote awaits the participants. More Bombshells are likely to be introduced soon and send shockwaves running through the program. As the show nears its end, the girls looking to find love get more desperate, while the boys remain passive and unresponsive to their forthcoming passes. On the other hand, Nic Vansteenberghe and Cierra Ortega's relationship hit a milestone as they decided to stop exploring; however, the consequences of their actions are yet to hit them, as doubt follows them.
Curious viewers can tune into Love Island USA Season 7 Episode 27 on Thursday, July 3, on Peacock and Bravo at 9 PM ET and 6 PM PT. Indian fans do not have direct access to the new episodes even as the show continues to ride the popularity ladder. It remains to be seen which Islander is voted out of the villa after so much drama.

Love Island USA Season 7 fans call for Cierra Ortega to be dumped after racist TikTok resurfaces: ‘She needs to go like Yulissa'
Love Island USA Season 7 star Cierra Ortega is facing backlash after a resurfaced TikTok video in which she used a racist slur against Asians went viral online. The clip, which quickly went viral, has sparked widespread outrage, leading to a loss of over 200,000 Instagram followers and calls for a boycott. Although the video is from years ago, it recently resurfaced amid her rising popularity on the reality show. The controversy comes on the heels of accusations that producers have been giving Cierra preferential treatment over other contestants. What Asian racist slur did Cierra Ortega use in her now-viral TikTok? In the now-viral TikTok post that was originally shared in 2020, Love Island USA star Cierra Ortega shared a photo of herself pouting inside what appears to be a doctor's office while undergoing cosmetic procedures. She captioned the image: 'Botox isn't for everyone, but I love it for me! I'm incredibly expressive with my face, and I catch myself frowning for no reason throughout the day when I'm focusing or thinking too hard lol.' However, the backlash stems from a later part of the caption where Cierra used a racial slur against Asians, describing her smile as 'a little ch*nky'. She went on to say, 'I can also be a little chubby when I laugh or smile, so I love getting a mini brow lift to open up my eyes and get that snatched look. This is not me encouraging, but more so sharing.' In another Instagram post from 2015, she was seen using the same slur as she captioned it, "Still ch*nkin' at the top." The screenshots of both posts have now gone viral. something very crazy to me about Cierra using a slur twice and being friends with racists like brooke schofield and then having the audacity to bully other women at her grown adult age on live television.. not only a racist but also a massive loser #loveislandusa Cierra loses nearly 200,000 followers on Instagram Cierra, who was on track to hit one million followers on Instagram, has seen a massive drop in her follower count since the controversy erupted. Before the backlash, she had 921,000 followers, but that number has now plunged to around 727,000, and it continues to fall by the second. something very crazy to me about Cierra using a slur twice and being friends with racists like brooke schofield and then having the audacity to bully other women at her grown adult age on live television.. not only a racist but also a massive loser #loveislandusa Fans demand Cierra be dropped from the villa Notably, another contestant, Yulissa Escobar, was abruptly removed from the Love Island USA villa with little explanation from narrator Iain Stirling during Season 7's second episode, which aired on June 4. Unlike typical eliminations, where contestants are voted off by the public or their fellow Islanders, Escobar's exit came without any on-screen acknowledgement. The 27-year-old Miami businesswoman had become the centre of controversy after clips surfaced of her using a racial slur on a podcast. The backlash online was massive, with fans vowing to vote her off at the first opportunity. Now, many are calling for Cierra to face similar consequences and be dumped from the villa as well. One user wrote, "Something very crazy to me about Cierra using a slur twice and being friends with racists like Brooke Schofield and then having the audacity to bully other women at her grown adult age on live television… not only a racist but also a massive loser." Another mentioned, "Why has Cierra not been dropped from the villa? She's fucking racist, using slurs. Y'all got Yulissa up out of there quick, but not Cierra???" why has cierra not been dropped from the villa,,,, she's fucking racist using slursyall got yulissa up out of there quick but not cierra ??? @loveislandusa #loveislandusa "Cierra posted this TikTok video ON HER OWN FREE WILL on 6.14.20 using the same slur she did in the IG story. At this point, if the producers choose to ignore this, they're rigging it, and for what? To defend a racist?" last thing…. cierra posted this tiktok video ON HER OWN FREE WILL on 6.14.20 using the same slur she did in the ig story. at this point if the producers choose to ignore this they're rigging and for what? to defend a racist? #LoveIslandUSA @loveislandusa @peacock "Quickly adding to this because it's gaining traction… the fact that Yulissa was pushed out for saying a slur but Cierra has been saying the same slur for YEARS and hasn't been packed up is wild. You can't allow one and not the other. Racism is Racism," a third fan noted. quickly adding to this bc it's gaining traction.. the fact that yulissa was pushed out for saying a slur but cierra has been saying the same slur for YEARS and hasn't been packed up is wild. you can't allow one and not the other @loveislandusa @peacock racism is racism! One person mentioned, "Cierra is racist, saying slurs, and overall a fake person; please get her out of the villa immediately along with Austin, Ace and Zak." Cierra racist, saying slurs, and overall a fake person pls get her out of the villa immediately along with Austin, Ace and Zak "Love Island USA Cierra needs to be gone like Yulissa; she used a racial slur as well. We can't pick and choose to save the show. She and Nic were running stale anyway. I have a huge problem with the producers enabling all of the cast's terrible behaviour," one fan wrote. #LoveIslandUSA Cierra needs to be gone like yulissa she used a racial slur as well. We can't pick and choose to save the show. Her and Nic were running stale anyway. I have a huge problem with the producers enabling all of the cast's terrible behavior. The showrunners have yet to address the controversy, and since phones aren't allowed inside the villa, Cierra is most likely unaware of the situation unfolding outside and has not responded. Meanwhile, fans online continue to amplify boycott calls and demand action. Love Island USA Season 7 airs daily on Peacock, with new episodes dropping every night except Wednesdays.

'Delivering original content experiences with world-class partners, especially around sports, is a top priority for X,' said Mitchell Smith, Head of Original Content at X, in his statement.

Love Island Season 7 editing errors revealed
Love Island Season 7 is back. But the latest offering of the popular reality show seems to be catching more eyeballs for its editing slips rather than the steamy participants. Eagle-eyed viewers have been quick to spot multiple editing gaffes in the latest season and poke fun at them. Love Island USA Season 7 (Love Island USA) During episode 8 which aired on June 10, a noticeable slip appeared during a game of 'pucker or pie' in the Fiji Villa. Olandria Carthen stood in front of the audience and asked her fellow islanders, 'Which islander do you think is most likely to take a relationship to make it to the final?" In a hilarious yet awkward moment, the scene cuts to Carthen seated on the bleachers behind Cierra Ortega and Nic Vansteenberghe, reacting to the question with shock. Orange to blue New Islander Vanna Einderson was seen chatting with TJ Palma during a Casa Amor episode. The scene showed her starting the conversation with an orange cup in hand which promptly switches to a blue one mid-conversation. The much-anticipated Casa Amor twist kicked off on the show in the episode aired on June 23.

The scene started with Carthen in a black bikini which instantly switched to a brown one-piece mid-scene with no explanation. Huda Mustafa's side-eye One of the major editing slips happened during a particular episode where Jeremiah Brown was seen bringing Iris Kendall and Andreina Santos breakfast in their dressing room, an action read as 'making a move' in the Love Island universe. The scene cuts to Brown's former flame Huda Mastafa making a side glance at the move. Many viewers pointed out gaps in this edit by claiming that Mustafa wasn't even present in the room for this to happen. As per USA Today, a team of 30 editors and 20 producers (as of 2024) is responsible for making sure that the 24-hour-long footage recorded at the villa gets cut and parceled into an hour-long episode by the next evening. Also read: 'Love Island USA' voting now open: Here's how to vote for your favorite contestant "A lot of people look at conversations and they seem a little bit cut up or they seem very short. You're only seeing two to three minutes of maybe like two to three hour long conversations," explained Season 5 cast member Johnny Garcia in a TikTok posted on June 19. "So just remember that. It's easy to cut thing up, and it's easy to make things look a certain way." The show also makes use of opaque cups to avoid visible continuity errors that might be spotted with the liquid levels in transparent glasses. New episodes of Love Island Season 7 are released daily (except Wednesdays) at 9 PM ET on Peacock. By Stuti Gupta
