Another Love Island USA season 8 contestant is under fire after an old video resurfaced online. Alannah Keyser entered the villa as a Casa Amor bombshell on Sunday night’s episode, and a few hours later, a viral video began making the rounds on social media.
A 10-second video allegedly shows Keyser singing along to the hit Roddy Ricch song, “The Box.”
The show has not publicly addressed the viral video at this time, but considering the precedent that has been set by producers over the past two years, it would be a surprise if some action was not taken in the coming days.

WARNING: Video contains language that some viewers may find offensive.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time this season that Love Island USA has had to deal with a resurfaced video of a contestant using a racial slur. Before the season even premiered, Vasana Montgomery was removed from the villa for a similar situation.
Last season, Yulissa Escobar was removed from the show during the second episode after a video of her using the same slur during a podcast appearance went viral. Cierra Ortega was later removed from the show for using a racial slur for Asian people.
