Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne is slamming Love Island for a good reason

She has a point.

So, we’ve established that I’m not all that in to Love Island, right?

However, it wasn’t really a personal thing against the show, until I saw what Leigh from Little Mix had to say.

Leigh-Anne Pinnock is has said that she will be boycotting the show.

Why? Due to Love Island’s lack of diversity.

Taking over Little Mix’s official Twitter page, Leigh-Anne wrote:

“How many weeks in and we are yet to see hardly any diversity in @LoveIsland.”

“I’m tuning off! #disappointed #diversity x Leigh.”

She has a point, lads.

Fans came out in support of Leigh Anne, tweeting in agreement:

And I also agree.

From what I’ve seen online, all the contestants of Love Island are slim, toned and of a similar aesthetic.

It goes beyond racial diversity in my opinion, where are all the fuller figures at? (asking for a friend).

Goodie. Another reason not to watch this show.
