Love Island Season 3
You’re supposed to be a superfan to get the job, but if you’re looking to cram and get the job anyway (shame!), here’s the scoop. Love Island USA is an American version of the popular show Love Island. Wikipedia actually does a pretty good job explaining the format of the show; “Love Island involves a group of contestants, referred to as Islanders, living in isolation from the outside world in a villa in [a tropical destination], constantly under video surveillance. To survive in the villa the Islanders must be coupled up with another Islander, whether it be for love, friendship or survival, as the overall winning couple receives $100,000. On the first day, the Islanders couple up for the first time based on first impressions, but over the duration of the series, they are forced to ‘re-couple’ where they can choose (or be chosen) to remain in their current couple or swap and change.
Any Islander who remains single after the coupling is eliminated and ‘dumped’ from the island. Islanders can also be eliminated via a public vote during the series. The public can vote for their favorite couple or who they think is the most compatible through the Love Island app available on smartphones. Couples who receive the fewest votes risk being eliminated. Occasionally, twists may occur where the islanders must eliminate each other. During the final week, the public vote for which couple they want to win the series and take home the prize.
Whilst in the villa, each Islander has their own phone with which they can only contact other Islanders via text – or receive texts informing them of the latest challenges, dumping, or re-coupling. Islanders and couples must typically take part in many games and challenges designed to test their physical and mental abilities, with the winners receiving special prizes afterward. Some Islanders are also sent on dates outside the villa or can win dates by winning challenges.”
Season 3 episode 1 aired on July 7, 2021, bringing back Arielle Vandenberg as the host and Matthew Hoffman as the voiceover narrator. Season 3 is filmed in Nīnole, Hawaii.
The job to watch and hype Season 3 sounds like any true fan’s dream come true. All you have to do is strap on your Love Island pants, head over to the job listing, and shoot for the stars.
