Love Island USA Season 8 is here with a group of 12 new sexy singles who are all hoping to find love. During the June 2 premiere, we'll see the cast meet in the Villa for the first time as they kick off a summer full of makeouts, breakups, and makeups. In the weeks to come the Islanders will get to know one another and test their connections, all in the hopes of finding love and being the final couple standing to go home with $100,000.
The best part? Love Island is filmed in real-time, meaning all the drama watched at home happens just hours before — miles away in Fiji. This also provides plenty of opportunity for viewers to weigh-in with fan votes throughout the season and participate in all of the drama, ensuring it'll be a summer to remember.

"I'm always surprised by who ends up coupling up," Host Ariana Madix told Peacock Blog. "Sometimes I think you can feel an energy between people that maybe you don't even see on camera but when you're there in person you can always kinda feel like, 'Oooh, there's some chemistry here.'"
While it may be too early to tell who will actually couple up, get to know the first Islanders of the season. Find out more, below.
