'Bachelor in Paradise''s Hannah Brown reacts to Justin's rose ceremony shocker: 'I did NOT see that coming'
Each week during Bachelor in Paradise, Head of Paradise relations (and former Bachelorette) Hannah Brown will answer a few questions about the cast's "journey" to find "love." Today, Hannah shares her thoughts on the "chemistry test" smooch-fest, Justin's attempt to sacrifice his spot on the beach for Susie, and more. ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Brian immediately started ignoring Zoe the morning after she gave him a rose, and then ultimately dumped her for Parisa. What do you think of the way Zoe handled the situation, and what advice would you give Parisa in terms of moving forward with Brian? HANNAH BROWN: My heart went out to Zoe, y'all. There was a clear shift the morning after the rose ceremony — especially once Parisa showed up. Zoe is just the sweetest, but Paradise is all about exploring new connections... even though I totally get why she felt thrown off. Brian's energy was confusing, and when she did try to speak up, it felt like he wasn't really hearing her — just kind of deflecting. Now I'm super curious to see where things go with Parisa and Brian. There might be something there, for sure — but I also hope Parisa takes full advantage of this experience and stays open to exploring other people, too. This week's "chemistry test" had the contestants smooching multiple people. Explain why this is a helpful exercise and not just unsanitary and a little awkward. Co-hosting the chemistry test date this week was so fun! I loved it. It's such a cool way to really check in with those early connections and test new ones — like, is there actually something there, or are you just caught up in the moment and not giving the others a shot? And the best part: No judgement or outside noise. It felt fresh, different from anything we've seen on the show before, and honestly... I think it helped people start asking the right questions early on. Jonathon gave Alexe his rose, but Wells says he's not sure he sees a romantic connection between them. Where do you stand on this question? I loved how Alexe opened up about their strong friendship — and honestly, that kind of bond can be such a good starting point for something more. Sometimes the best relationships come from a solid friendship first! I'm still holding out hope for these two. We'll see what happens next. What was your reaction to Justin's decision to give his rose to his ex Susie so she wouldn't go home? You can just tell there's something really genuine between those two. Like, even in the way they talk about respecting each other and their individual journeys — it's clear there's a deep friendship there. And honestly, the way he chose to protect her and give her a chance to stay one more week? That says a lot. He put her first in that moment, and there's something really admirable about that. Before Susie even arrived on the beach, Lexi temporarily broke it off with Justin because she's worried he still has feelings for Susie. Now that Justin tried (and failed) to give his rose to his ex, do you think there's any hope for him and Lexi? Okay that ending?! I did not see that coming. I'm honestly still processing. There is so much going on, and I'm real curious to see how it all unfolds next episode. My heart kinda hurts for everyone involved. This interview has been edited for length and clarity. Bachelor in Paradise airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC. Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly

'Love Island USA' Season 8 casting is now open. Here's how to join the villa
I've got a text! The hit reality TV show 'Love Island USA' — based on the U.K. version of the series with the same name — is looking for singles who want to try to find love in the villa. "Love Island USA" is now accepting applications for contestants for Season 8, expected to air in summer 2026. Seasons 6 and 7 brought in a whole new wave of fans, and people have even compared the new season of "Bachelor in Paradise" to the Peacock series. The "Love Island USA" Season 7 finale airs tonight, Sunday, July 13, but the "Love Island USA" app has already posted a casting announcement for Season 8. "Want to be the next Love Island USA Islander and turn heads in the upcoming season," the announcement said. "This is your moment to shine — don't sleep on it!" "Love Island USA," which airs on Peacock and CBS, follows Islanders who couple up to participate in games and challenges throughout their stay at the villa. Temptations and drama break up couples as bombshells arrive and connections are threatened. Contestants may recouple with someone new, and they can be eliminated by viewer votes. In the end, one winning couple walks away with the cash prize of $100,000 jointly or $50,000 each. If you want to be in on the action, here's how to apply to be on "Love Island USA." Yes. Casting is going on right now. It's likely that "Vanderpump Rules" star Ariana Madix will return as host of "Love Island USA" Season 8, but there has been no confirmation yet from Peacock. The only way you can apply for Season 8 of 'Love Island USA' is through the online application form: You must be 18 years of age or older. You'll be asked for your birth date to access the form. Get ready to share a lot of information about yourself: There are 80 questions on the online application form. Initial questions ask about your height, weight, hometown, education and job. You are also asked for links to your social media accounts. Here are some of the other questions on the "Love Island" application: "Do you have an ONLY FANS? Ever made an appearance on an Adult Film site or exclusive content site?" "Have you ever been in love? Do you fall in love easily?" "Why do you think you are currently single?" "What makes you a good boy/girlfriend? What makes you a bad boy/girlfriend?" "Have you ever been unfaithful in a relationship? (Be honest!)" "What's your parents' relationship status? Are they together? Married to new partners? Single? Do you look to them as relationship goals?" "Who is your celebrity crush and why?" "Do you have any close connections to celebrities or known public figures (e.g., family relation, dated in the past or friends with)?" "What is the most difficult thing you have ever been through?" "Have you ever seen any past seasons of Love Island (U.S. or U.K.)? If so, which ones?" "Is there any other information we should be made aware of concerning your application (including anything in your past that may attract negative press or publicity)? If YES, please provide details." There's no clear deadline on the application. It does say you must be at least 18 years old. The Season 8 premiere date has not been announced. The Season 6 application asked prospective cast members if they had any scheduling conflicts between June and August 2024. Season 6 of 'Love Island USA' aired June 11-July 21, 2024 and Season 7 was from June 3-July 13, 2025, so it can be assumed that Season 8 will be released around the same time.
