‘Love Island’ Vasana Montgomery
Shown the Villa Door …
After Videos Showing Alleged Slur Use Surface
Published
Vasana Montgomery — one of the announced cast members for season 8 of “Love Island USA” — has already been kicked off the show … TMZ has learned, after allegedly using a racial slur.
Here’s the deal … videos surfaced online which appear to show the contestant from Beaverton, Oregon using the n-word.
In one clip, Montgomery appears to say it while rapping along to a song … while, in another, she yells it out while her friend is playing an arcade game.
Production sources tell TMZ … Vasana will no longer be on the show.
Our sources say the videos that have surfaced on social media appear to be private videos — clips not publicly shared until after the cast was announced, which is why they wouldn’t have come up when production vetted Vasana.
We’ve reached out to Vasana … no word back yet.
This season’s cast has been under a microscope since they were all announced just a few days ago … with contestant Kenzie Annis catching flak for posing with people who appear to be wearing MAGA attire.
Kenzie’s family later pushed back … with her dad, Tim, telling TMZ his daughter is not a Trumper and the family is not either.
This isn’t the first time “Love Island USA” producers have had to deal with a cast member allegedly saying racist remarks. Remember, last year Yulissa Escobar was kicked off the show after dropping the n-word on multiple podcast clips.
