Casa Amor Carnage, 'Scamanda' Exits & BB28 Is Almost Here!

Casa Amor bombshell Alannah Keyser was removed from Love Island USA Season 8 after a resurfaced video showed her rapping along to Roddy Ricch's 'The Box' using the N-word. She debuted on June 21 and was quietly edited out of the June 23 episode before narrator Iain Stirling confirmed her exit on June 25. Keyser posted a TikTok apology on June 27 saying 'that word is just not in my vocabulary anymore.' She's the fourth Love Island USA contestant in two years to be ousted over racial slur use — and the second from Season 8 alone.

The other shoe has fully dropped in the Summer House scandal: Amanda Batula will not return for Season 11, Variety has confirmed. After beginning a romance with castmate West Wilson — who also confirmed his own exit on the June 24 Broadcast Boys podcast — the duo's presence proved impossible given the continued involvement of Batula's estranged husband Kyle Cooke and her former best friend Ciara Miller. A Bravo exec noted the cast 'has to live with one another as friends,' which is simply not possible given the fallout. Season 11 is set to begin filming in the Hamptons in July.

CBS has confirmed Big Brother Season 28 premieres Thursday, July 9 at 8 PM ET/PT with a 90-minute kickoff episode. The season carries a 'Time Trip' theme and will become the first primetime series in history to reach 1,000 original episodes. Julie Chen Moonves returns as sole host, and live feeds will be available on Paramount+ starting July 10. Companion series Big Brother: Unlocked also returns, airing Fridays throughout the season.

Monday night's Below Deck Mediterranean Season 11 Episode 4 brought a jaw-dropping tip to the crew following a chaotic charter with nightmare guest Josef. Meanwhile, a love triangle has officially formed between deckhands Luke, Gen, and chef Joy — and Gen is still furious she didn't land the second stew title. Nathan managed to keep his cool when Josef challenged him to an arm wrestling match, which is frankly a character arc nobody saw coming. The show airs Mondays on Bravo and streams on Peacock.

Netflix's America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Season 3 dropped all seven episodes on June 16 and the buzz has not slowed down. Season 3 follows the 2025–26 squad from high-pressure auditions through the NFL season with 30 veterans returning and only six spots open for rookies. The emotional centerpiece of the season is veteran Reece Weaver, who retired after her third year on the squad — a storyline Netflix's own Tudum is highlighting as a must-watch goodbye. Emmy-winning director Greg Whiteley returns at the helm.

Love Is Blind Season 1 alum Giannina Gibelli and Bachelorette alum Blake Horstmann officially tied the knot on June 20 in a stunning destination ceremony on St. Andrews Island off the coast of Rovinj, Croatia. The couple, who met filming All Star Shore, were surrounded by nearly 100 guests including fellow reality alums Jason Tartick, Colleen Reed, and Raven Ross. Giannina wore a Galia Lahav Couture gown and walked down the aisle to a violin rendition of Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You.' Their son Heath, 2, served as ring bearer.

Fans waiting on the next chapter of Top Chef will need to be patient: judge and executive producer Gail Simmons confirmed on The Watch podcast that Season 24 will not film in August and September as usual, breaking the show's longstanding production schedule. Simmons said she doesn't even know the new filming location yet, which is highly unusual given that location contracts are typically signed in May or June. Top Chef was renewed for Season 24 by Bravo earlier this year after Season 23 — Top Chef Carolinas — wrapped its Monday-night run on June 8.
