Love Island Australia is accepting applications through Tinder for 2021
Calling all single people, Love Island Australia has started casting for their upcoming season through Tinder.
The world’s most popular dating app has been named ‘official casting partner’ for the reality show, which will begin filming later this year.
While the first two seasons were filmed in Spain and Fiji, the villa is being relocated to the Gold Coast for 2021 due to international travel restrictions.
Tinder users can apply to be on Love Island through the app by swiping right on application cards that will appear on the main page.
Their profile will then be reviewed and verified by the team at Tinder.
If selected, they will be added to a ‘Priority List’, which means they are guaranteed to be seen by the show’s casting team.
