THE TRUTH ABOUT: Love island usa bombshell under fire over racial slur video | History Defined

Alannah Keyser, a new Casa Amor contestant on Love Island USA , is facing calls for her removal after a video surfaced appearing to show her mouthing a racial slur.
The 21-year-old film student was introduced in Sunday's episode as one of six new girls for the hit dating show's Casa Amor twist.
Further allegations include screenshots purportedly showing Keyser using the N-word in online conversations.
Fans also criticized Keyser for allegedly refusing to kiss the three Black contestants during a challenge while kissing the other three cast members.
Peacock has not yet confirmed Keyser's removal, though this would mark the fourth instance in the last year of a Love Island USA contestant being removed for similar reasons.
