'Who's That Girl?'

Author: Alex RossPublished 27th Jun 2024

With tensions at boiling point in the Love Island villa right now, mainly thanks to the latest row between Harriett Blackmore and Ciaran Davies, bosses are about to throw the Islanders a mega party, with a VIP guest in the form of Eve!

Eve, best known for hits such as 'Who's That Girl?' and 'Tambourine' in the Noughties, enters the villa to perform some of her hits and have fun with the Islanders.

Nicole Samuel gets an exciting text which reads: 'Islanders, it’s time to slay as tonight the Villa will host a VIP performance that will blow your mind. #whosthatgirl'

From the text, it doesn't take long for the Islanders to realise who is joining them for the party, with Ronnie Vint saying: "Boys, are we buzzing for Eve?!”

Eve tells the Islanders: “We came to have some fun with you tonight - ya’ll look great," before taking a cheeky selfie with them.

Check out all of the celebrity guests to appear on Love Island:

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 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.

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.

Elsewhere on Thursday night's (27th June) episode, the fallout from Ciaran's savage comment to Harriett continues, with Harriett saying to Matilda Draper: “Why has he just embarrassed me? If I was Nicole I’d be so embarrassed. I’m not talking to him ever again.”

Trying to reassure her, Grace Jackson says: “This is your journey and it’s fine that it’s been this way. Ronnie straight away was like ‘No, she’s the first option.’”

Meanwhile, Ciaran speaks to the rest of the Islanders at the Fire Pit, where he says: “She said her piece, I said my piece, leave it.”

Later speaking privately to partner Nicole Samuel, he adds: “I said what I meant, I’m not apologising for it.”

Love Island continues every night at 9pm on ITV2/STV2.
