Love Island USA: 5 Contestants Sent Home After Dramatic Elimination
On Thursday, Love Island USA Season 7 took a dramatic turn with a public vote and recoupling, leading to the elimination of five islanders. The episode airing on Peacock at 9:00 pm ET left the fans shocked as it followed a tense fallout from a game where the Islanders sent postcards with sharp questions, sparking conflicts and arguments.
A public vote identified Austin Shephard, Andreina Santos, Gracyn Blackman, Taylor Williams, Jaden Duggar, and TJ Palma as the least favourite Islanders. Safe islanders were given the power to save one person by voting, and they chose to save Taylor, which resulted in the elimination of the other five contestants. After these five Islanders' shocking departure, the recoupling left Iris, Bryan and Pepe single.
This latest episode picked up from a previous game that exposed high tensions among Huda Mustafa, Olandria Carthen, and Chris Seeley. In the previous game, Huda clashed with Olandria over her pursuit of Chris, despite his clear interest in Michelle 'Chelley" Bissainthe. Although Huda survived this elimination, the public vote announced by host Ariana Madix shocked the contestants as the bottom five Islanders faced immediate elimination.
In the previous episodes, Charlie Georgiou, Jeremiah Brown, and Hannah Fields were eliminated as Casa Amor introduced new bombshells and shook things up at the villa. The latest 5-person elimination marked the largest elimination in the season, leaving only 20 contestants at the villa. This recent elimination reflected the show's accelerated pace of approaching the finale. However, the results left fans stunned as the elimination featured those contestants who were perceived as more genuine or entertaining than others, further showcasing the disconnection between the show's participants and its audiences.
Season 7 of Love Island USA has become Peacock's highest-performing show so far. After a rocky start to the American iteration of the reality dating show, the series was able to hit a stride in Season 6, and it's safe to say, despite the unwanted eliminations of this season, Love Island USA 7 has become one of the favourite shows of the audience. As per Deadline reports, the streaming platform revealed that this season of Love Island USA has reached an audience high as Casa Amor began. The show airs every day except Wednesdays on Peacock at 7:00 pm ET.

Bella Thorne accuses Charlie Puth of spreading hate against her after REJECTING him
Bella Thorne has accused singer Charlie Puth of spreading lies and turning people against her because she refused to sleep with him. Bella made a strong accusation against the singer in a viral clip that showed singer Jade Thirlwall saying she wouldn't want to collaborate with Charlie Puth. In response, Bella commented, 'Yeah, I mean… he lied to the entire world about me and started a hate train. All because I wouldn't … do the deed with him.' This statement quickly gained attention and brought back an old controversy from 2016 involving both Bella and Charlie. At that time, the two were spotted together on a beach in Miami, and people started speculating that they were dating. Bella had been invited by Charlie to his Jingle Ball concert, after which their public appearance sparked romance rumours, especially since she had recently been in a relationship with actor Tyler Posey . Soon after, Charlie tweeted that he was hurt because he believed Bella had cheated on her boyfriend with him. However, he was reacting to an old article that made it seem like Bella and Tyler were still together, even though they had already broken up. Bella responded to Charlie's tweet on Twitter, clarifying that she and Tyler had broken up 'over two weeks' before she met Charlie. She explained that she and the singer were just friends and that he misunderstood the situation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo She said that instead of talking to her privately, he went online and made it public, which led to a lot of negative comments and hate directed at her. In 2017, Bella also addressed the situation during a SiriusXM interview. She shared that her breakup with Tyler had been very emotional, and that she had only met Charlie twice. There was no romantic relationship between them. Bella explained that Charlie saw an old article, thought she was still dating Tyler, and wrongly assumed she was cheating. He didn't call or text her to ask; instead, he tweeted his feelings and didn't answer her calls. This caused people to believe Bella had done something wrong, and she was trolled online. Charlie, who tied the knot this year, has not yet responded to Bella's latest statement.
