Love Island Australia

Australia, it's time for beautiful singles

to come to a beautiful place to fall in love.

Send.

- -

-That's fantastic, love the energy. -

Today we're cooking my magic meatballs.

Step number one, chop the tip off your carrot.

- -

You have arrived at Love Island.

Taxi.

Australia, let there be love.

There's a beautiful place ready for all the beautiful singles.

It's time for romance, it's time for Love Island.

Welcome to Love Island, where Australia's hottest singles

are taking six weeks off Tinder to find love the old-fashioned way.

On a reality TV show.

The Islanders must couple up ASAP,

or they risk being dumped from the island.

We're in a brand-new location this year, and incredibly,

we found another villa packed with cameras, microphones

and a full TV crew.

What are the chances?

So, we've got sexy singles, surf and sunshine.

We don't have sunshine, but we're hoping you won't notice.

So, let's meet the girls.

Oh, my God.

Woo-hoo! Whoo!

Oh...

-Yes! -

God, it's so beautiful.

-Hi! -Hi!

-I'm Cartier. -Vanessa.

Oh, my God, look at you.

-Stop. -So hot.

All right, let's check it out.

-How are you feeling? -I'm nervous, how are you?

Same.

-Oh, my goodness. -Oh, my God.

-This is freaking amazing. -Look at that view!

This is not Sydney.

Are you from Sydney?

-Yeah. -I'm from Sydney as well.

-Yeah, where? -Bondi.

-Ah, like Western suburbs. -Okay.

Oh, my goodness.

They've got the flamingo.

I think we're the first ones here.

-Look, there's champagne. -Hello.

-How old are you? -Can you guess?

Twenty-four? 25?

I'm 19.

-Are you 19? -Yeah.

-Fuck off. -So you're 24?

-I'm 24. -You're so beautiful.

So, both of my parents are French, I grew up speaking French.

- I don't like idiots. -

My name's Vanessa, I'm 24 years old and I'm from Sydney.

I'm the whole package.

I'm pretty, I'm educated,

graduated with a double major in finance and economics.

Tattoos might disappoint your mum a little bit, I don't know,

but I'm really good with your family, so we'll get over that.

I'll go for the guy that I want,

even if there's someone else interested in him,

I'm gonna take him.

I'm not gonna settle for less just because of someone else's feelings.

I'm not usually single for that long,

so I'm sure that I won't have any trouble finding anyone.

So what sort of guy are you into?

Tall. Blue, green eyes.

I want a sweetheart.

Yeah, like a mummy's boy.

I don't mind a mummy's boy, but...

I like a family man.

I'm Cartier, I'm from Sydney and I'm a lifeguard.

Yes, I'm a good girl.

I'm sweet.

I'm like the church girl. I go to church every Sunday,

I attend Bible studies through the week and I'm in love with Jesus.

So coming from a Croatian background,

we've been taught the woman does everything.

My bubba always says a man is not going to want a wife

that cannot clean.

I've got the morals that a man wants.

They don't have to question me, I'm trustworthy.

I'm honest and I'm loving.

And I just happen to be pretty.

If a man meets me and doesn't see me as his wife, I've done it wrong.

Let's reintroduce each other.

"Hi, I'm Cartier, yes, your wife, okay."

Please let there be some good guys, please.

-I'm nervous! -It hasn't hit me yet.

-It hasn't? -No.

-Really? -Yeah.

Like I'm just gonna wake up tomorrow.

Like "Shit, I've got a man next to me."

Oh, my... I'm gonna have a guy next to me.

Like, "What happened last night?"

Yeah!

Oh, my goodness, hi.

Hello!

Hi!

I'm Cynthia, I'm 22, I'm from Brisbane and I'm a model.

I was born in West Africa, Liberia,

and I moved to Australia when I was seven years old.

I've actually never had a boyfriend.

Which is also fine, because I'm an independent woman.

I feel like I've got so much love to give.

But it's more so I haven't been giving that love

to the right people, and therefore have become a bit

broken-hearted at times.

When I do like someone, I'm very shy.

And I probably don't say a lot, which is bad.

I would say that I am a relationship girl

who has never been in a relationship.

Where are you from?

So, I'm originally from West Africa, Liberia,

and then I moved to Australia when I was seven,

and I live in Brisbane.

-What about you? -I'm French.

My first language is French, I learnt English when I was five.

-Stop. - Bonjour. Je m'appelle ...

-Tu parles francais? -Un petit francais.

Un petit peu?

-And it stops there. -That's good, you've got it.

We can speak to the boys in French.

You can, I can't.

I'm Australian, I don't speak any other languages.

Come at me, Love Island.

Come at me, a man.

Hi!

-This is so weird. -

I definitely think that people underesti-bate me,

I definitely think that people underestimate me.

Ugh. I can't even say the word.

I'm Jessie, I'm 23, and I'm a waitress from Tasmania.

I would describe myself as a bit of a scatterbrain.

I think I speak a little bit too fast for my brain to, like,

comprehend what I'm actually saying.

Not that I'm dumb, but I don't say the smartest things, so...

My best feature is my boobs.

I didn't pay all that money for them not to be my best feature.

I'm just so drawn to the guy that's the loudest and the funniest,

but with that usually comes a lot of other girls

you don't know about.

Don't cheat on me, it's not that hard.

I'm going into Love Island looking for love.

I'm here for the real deal.

Let me just say it. Estimate, underestimate.

-I'm so excited for the boys to walk in. -I know.

What are they gonna...

Be like? Yeah.

-Hope there's one for me. -What's your type?

Okay, tall is out for me, 'cause I'm short, so...

Take the tall one, honey.

What if, like, a six-foot-five guy came in?

Grab the ladder.

Love Island!

- -

All right, ladies?

-Oh, my God! -Hey!

I'm Cassie, I'm 26, I'm from Sydney,

and I'm an EA.

My best physical feature is my bum.

My mum's an author and I've wrote my whole life,

and I recently wrote a book of poetry.

I grew up in London, but I came here six years ago

and because of the Aussie boys, I just couldn't leave.

Aussie boys usually love my accent and my looks, and the tattoos.

When you look at me and my hard exterior,

you wouldn't think so, but I am, deep down, a real hopeless romantic.

I want a guy that looks like a bad guy but acts like a good guy,

they need to be best of both worlds.

Yeah, they're just like a unicorn.

-Do you have an accent? -I'm from London.

-Oh, my God. -Wow.

The boys are gonna die.

What's your type?

I'm a personality girl, as long as he makes me laugh.

-Don't care what they look like? -To be honest, looks fade.

If they can keep me entertained...

See, I love the cocky guy.

Do you? Okay, you can have him.

Let's crunch the numbers, Australia.
