Kaz Crossley claimed Love Island contestants would “speak in accents” to stop certain conversations being shown on television.
The reality star claimed they would use certain tactics to avoid conversations or comments being aired to the public.
“You knew what they could show or not – like they couldn’t put in a lot of swearing, bad words or if you talked about racist jokes, anything like that,” she told Cambridge Union.
“So sometimes, and we got into trouble for it, if you talk in an accent and say what you wanted to say then you knew they were never going to show it because they don’t want to offend people.”
“They show accents from the UK but not others, to avoid offending other countries,” she claimed.
Kaz also revealed that she didn’t apply for the show, but instead was scouted by producers after they saw her Instagram.
“I didn’t actually apply, I got scouted. I found that a lot of people were scouted and that’s because of the ‘Love Island look.'”
“They want everyone to look pretty, so they scout the hottest people and that’s who they get on the show,” she added.
