Alannah Keyser Fired from Love Island USA Over Resurfaced Racial Slur Video

Alannah Keyser, a 21‑year‑old USC film student who entered Love Island USA as a Casa Amor bombshell, was removed from the Peacock series after a resurfaced video appeared to show her using the N‑word. Producers edited her out of pre‑taped episodes and confirmed she would not appear in new episodes airing from Thursday onward.

The controversy follows a similar incident earlier this season when contestant Vasana Montgomery was dismissed before the show launched after a video allegedly showing her using a racial slur circulated online. Keyser’s father defended her, calling her “an educated sweetheart,” but the backlash on social media prompted the show's producers to act.
