A special VIP is making an appearance on Love Island tonight
The Islanders are in for a treat
Last updated 16th Jul 2024
Although there's only a few weeks left of this year's Love Island, there's certainly no sign of the drama slowing down, with Islanders like Joey Essex, Grace Jackson, Ayo Odukoya and Mimii Ngulube still keeping us all entertained.
And whilst the drama from Snog, Marry, Pie continues on tonight's episode (Tuesday 16th July), there's also a guest appearance from a very famous VIP!
With Hip-Hop legend Eve already gracing the villa, tonight its the turn of British artist Jess Glynne, who pops by as the Islanders enjoy an exclusive Summer of Vibe party.
The Islanders are woken up to an unexpected text which reads: 'Islanders, it’s time for you to get ready and leave the Villa as you’re off to an exclusive party #SummerOfVibe #VIPsOnly'.
Heading out of the villa to the exclusive pool party at the Love Island Beach Club, the Islanders are greeted by Jess, as she performs some of her biggest hits, as well as her brand new single 'Summer's back'.
Revealing she's a huge fan of the show, Jess tells the Islanders: “I’ve been watching the show and I’m actually invested!’”
Check out which other famous faces have entered the villa:
Stormzy
Remember when Stormzy called out Olivia Attwood on Twitter for the way she treated Chris Hughes? Well, they came face-to-face when the rapper was beamed into the villa for a video call with the contestants. Viewers were loving it and hailed the incredible moment as "the best TV ever".
Tom Zanetti
Before he was known as a reality TV personality in his own right, DJ and producer Tom Zanetti entered the villa in series four to spin some tunes at the Islanders' Ministry of Sound party. It was here that he first met Hayley Hughes, who he later dated after she left the show.
Craig David
Craig David accidentally provided one of the most iconic Love Island moments of all time when he brought Anton Danyluk to tears by entering the villa to belt out some of his greatest hits.
Mark Wright
Way back when Love Island began in 2015, Mark Wright entered the villa in one of the series' most shocking moments. No, he wasn't looking for love - he's happily married to Michelle Keegan, of course. He appeared on the show to DJ for contestant Lauren Richardson's 27th birthday.
Danny Dyer
Love Island viewers were left devastated when Dani Dyer's dad Danny didn't enter the villa for the Meet The Parents day. However, he did still manage to give Jack Fincham a grilling when he appeared via video call.
Sean Paul
Ah, when Sean Paul met Shaughna Phillips. Yep, the legendary singer jetted to South Africa especially to perform at a Spotify party in the villa on the ITV2 dating show's first ever winter edition.

As fans will know, when the Islanders head off to the Beach Club, host Maya Jama isn't usually far behind them, and this series is no different!
Maya will make a dramatic entrance on tonight's show to interrupt the party, revealing one couple will be dumped following a public vote.
She tells them: “Islanders, sorry to interrupt your little shindig, the party is over…can you please all line up in front of the pool. The public have been voting for the most compatible couple…”
Who will it be?
Love Island continues every night at 9pm on ITV2/STV2.
