'Celebs' set for Love Island
Tuesday 11th July 2006, 17:37
A host of "celebrities" are packing their bags to head out to ITV's Love Island in Fiji. Glamour models, former Playboy playmates, soap stars, singers, socialites and those related to famous people are among the contestants on the television show.
Lady Victoria Hervey and Sophie Anderton are representing the socialites, while Gazza's step-daughter Bianca Gascoigne and glamour model Alicia Douvall are some of the names not everyone may have heard of.
Playboy playmate Colleen Shannon has said that she is going to the island in search of someone spiritual, while Bianca stated that she hopes to find a man who is "caring, comfortable in their own skin, good looking and loving".
The boy's side of the celebrity crew are represented by slightly more famous names, such as singer Leo Ihenancho from The Streets, while ex-Boyzone star Shane Lynch has had more distant chart success.
However, not all the boys are as famous, such as dancer Brendan Cole, Pierce Brosnan's son Chris and former Hollyoaks star Lee Otway, all looking for romance or whatever comes their way.
If this assorted selection of "stars" does pique the interest, the show is on ITV1 and 2 every night, or on all the time on ITV play for those who can handle it.
