Meet the New Cast of ‘Love Island USA’ Season Six

Meet the New Cast of ‘Love Island USA’ Season Six

The villa is officially open! A new batch of bombshells are headed to Fiji for Season Six of Love Island USA — and Rolling Stone can exclusively reveal the cast of islanders.

To kick off the upcoming season, which premieres June 11 on Peacock, viewers will meet a spicy group of five men and five women hoping to find love. Among the group is Kordell Beckham, NFL star Odell Beckham Jr.’s younger brother, and Aaron Evans, the Traitors UK Season One winner. Robert Rausch, who fans will recognize from Love Island USA’s Season Five when the Islanders went to Casa Amor, is also entering the villa this season.


Like past seasons, the islanders will couple up before embarking on a series of challenges — including the arrival of new potential suitors — that will quickly put their budding relationships to the test.

Meet the cast of Season Six:

Kordell Beckham, Odell Beckham Jr.’s brother, is a 21-year-old model and aircraft fueler based in Dallas. According to Kordell, he’s a “yapper” who loves to talk and is also a country boy who loves to ride horses. His celebrity crushes are Megan Thee Stallion, Beyoncé, and Jene Aiko.

Aaron Evans, the winner of Traitors UK Season One, is a deckhand originally from Marbella, Spain, but currently living in the United Kingdom. The 26-year-old, who also calls himself a Harry Potter nerd, says one time he slept with a stewardess on his first week of working on a yacht and his mother apparently says he’s a “feral liability.”

Robert Rausch, best known for his Love Island USA Season Five appearance, is a 25-year-old snake wrangler from Florence, Alabama. Robert, whose favorite hobbies are karaoke and photography, is back for a second chance at finding love in the villa.

Coye Simmons, 28, is a school district director in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. After going to college on a basketball scholarship, Coye went on to play professional basketball in Germany. Since he’s 6’8” and wears a size 17 shoe, he says he has to get all of his clothes and shoes customized.

Kendall Washington works in medical device sales in Dallas. The 27-year-old, who comes from San Diego, says the first time he cried over a girl was at a country music concert when he saw her making out with another guy. Kendall’s celebrity crushes are Jessica Alba and Minka Kelly.

Hannah Smith is a 26-year-old bottle server who lives in Charlotte, North Carolina. She says one of her biggest red flags is lack of communication. Apparently Hannah’s celebrity crushes are Michael B. Jordan and Odell Beckham Jr., which should be interesting when she meets Kordell. 

JaNa Craig hails from both Kailua, Hawaii, and Okinawa, Japan, but the 27-year-old currently calls Las Vegas home. Working as a day trader, JaNa says she speaks Japanese and Spanish and that her “kryptonite” is facial hair on any man.

Kaylor Martin, 22, is a graduate student from Pittsburgh who lives in the small Pennsylvania town of Connellsville. According to Kaylor, her celebrity crushes include Harry Jowsey, Patrick Swayze, and Jacob Elordi, and her go-to dance move is the worm.

Leah Kateb, a 24-year-old Los Angeles native, is a college student whose parents immigrated to L.A. from Iran, making her first language Farsi. Her obsession with animals and her own pets inspired her to become a vegetarian for the past 11 years, and she says she’s “excellent” at spotting red flags.

Serena Page is a Southern belle from Houston who currently lives in Los Angeles. The 24-year-old media planner spent a decade as a cheerleader and is fluent in American Sign Language. Serena says she loves a “short king” and a bald man; her celebrity crushes are Michael Ealy and Method Man.

Vanderpump Rules star Ariana Madix will be taking over as host of Love Island USA this season, while Iain Stirling remains the hilarious and beloved narrator. Starting June 11, new episodes of the show will start streaming every day at 6 p.m. PT/9 p.m. E.T. In the following weeks, new episodes will be available on Peacock six days a week Thursdays through Tuesdays.

Anne Hathaway Urged ‘Devil Wears Prada 2’ Producers Not to Cast ‘Alarmingly Thin’ Models

A lot has changed in fashion, media, and culture since The Devil Wears Prada was released two decades ago. But as Anne Hathaway and Meryl Streep revive their characters for the upcoming sequel, The Devil Wears Prada 2, they’re realizing some things have unfortunately stayed the same. In a recent interview with Harper’s Bazaar, Streep revealed that Hathaway confronted producers about casting “skeletal” models in the film.

Streep recalled being “struck by how not only beautiful and young — everyone seems young to me — but alarmingly thin the models were,” noting, “I thought that all had been addressed years ago.” Hathaway, she continued, noticed, too. “She made a beeline to the producers about it, securing promises that the models in the show that we were putting together for our film would not be so skeletal,” Streep said. “She’s a stand-up girl.”

The video also offers sneak peeks at some of the most iconic moments from the book including Harry meeting the half-giant Hagrid (Nick Frost), crossing the magically concealed Platform 9¾ at King’s Cross Station, putting on the Sorting Hat, stepping onto the Quidditch pitch as Gryffindor’s seeker, and tons more scenes likely to conjure up feelings of nostalgia for longtime fans of the novels and previous films.
