A total of seven men will enter the Love Island USA season 3 villa on day one, and they will need to fight to make a good impression and couple up with a girl to say in the game. Usually, it is bad news for the boys to enter Love Island with additional contestants, as it means that the girls will have all the power at first. With five girls and seven boys going into season 3, it means that there'll be at least two men without a couple at first.
With that said, Love Island keeps shifting the power as the season goes on, so it is possible that three new girls might come in right away. If so, it'd be up to those two boys without a pair to call the shots this time around. Last year, Johnny Middlebrooks stole Cely Vazquez from Tre Forte on day one. By the next re-coupling, however, two new girls had entered the villa, which meant that the first eliminated islander of the season was Kaitlynn Anderson. So, let's get to know the boys who'll be fighting for love in season 3.
Christian Longnecker
Coffee company owner Christian Longnecker is 24 years old and lives in Oahu, Hawaii. Given that the season will be filmed in Hawaii, Christian will surely feel right at home at the villa. More than anything, Chris says that he's just ready to form a real connection, so it seems like he's coming into the show for the right reasons!
Javonny Vega
Javonny Vega is a real estate investor from Boca Raton, Florida. In his introductory interview with Love Island, Javonny says that he "got a tiger tattoo for my 21st birthday because I'm a Leo." That was a few years ago, as Javonny is now 26. However, the fans still can't miss that large tattoo on his chest.
Jeremy Hershberg
Jeremy Hershberg is clearly a very athletic guy, so it checks out that he works as a personal trainer in New York City. However, the 27-year-old doesn't want to be defined by his exterior. Instead, Jeremy calls himself a "pretty nice, quiet guy. A big nerd, actually." As such, he wants to come onto the show to try something new.
Josh Goldstein
At 24 years old, Josh Goldstein is one of the youngest day-one cast members on Love Island USA season 3. Josh is of Hungarian descent, but he actually lives in Haverhill, Massachusetts. As a college athlete, he's had a successful career in baseball. However, Josh doesn't want to be defined as a player, claiming that he's actually a "nice guy."
Korey Gandy
Korey Gandy is 28 years old, lives in Virginia Beach, California, and works as a rental car agent. At this point, Korey thinks that he knows exactly what he wants in life and exactly how to get there. As such, he is more than ready to find a soulmate on Love Island USA season 3.
Cinco a.k.a. Melvin Holland Jr.
From Ashburn, Virginia, Melvin Holland Jr. would rather have you call him Cinco. Currently, Cinco is 25 years old and works as a delivery driver. Overall, he's a competitive guy who wants to find a like-minded partner. After all, Cinco knows that it takes a couple to stick together in order to win the show.
Will Moncada
Originally from Colombia, Will Moncada has been living in the United States for seven years. He is 26 years old and works as a budtender (a.k.a. a bartender for weed). Will is very proud to be living in the US, and he loves that he's become an American citizen over the years. Last but certainly not least, Will is also vegan.
Love Island USA season 3 premieres Wednesday, July 7 at 9:30 pm on CBS.
