Surviving love and heartbreak on Love Island is not for the weak, which is why season 7 of USA has provided us with some strong-ass betches. Olandria, Chelley, and, yes, Huda are all serious emergency contact material. But of all the lovely women (the boys are lucky to breathe the same air), as I’m pretty sure Amaya is truly one of one. Like, I know 100 men would lose to a gorilla, but I’m pretty sure Amaya would win somehow?? The next time someone asks me what the one travel thing I’d bring with me on a desert island is, the obvious answer is Amaya Espinal.
When I say women contain multitudes, I’m definitely talking about how Amaya is a lover girl, a telenovela star, a Dominican princess, someone you definitely don’t want to fuck with, and a comedian at the same damn time. Basically, this is officially an Amaya Papaya stan page so naturally, here all off Amaya’s funniest moments and quotes from Love Island USA.
“No, we don’t want to do that. We don’t want to do that, though!” – me, before doing literally anything that requires me to leave my house (especially when a new episode of Love Island drops). Amaya also gets bonus points for definitely annoying the dickens out of Ace during this iconic meltdown.
The way that Amaya pushes Ace’s buttons without trying? Masterful work! Ace and Amaya’s energy towards each other pays homage to some of my favorite duos: Tom and Jerry, Pain and Panic, Jesse and Walter, to name a few. Things veered quickly to the left, all because Amaya called Ace her favorite pet name, babe.
Note to self: make sure face is 10/10 when yelling at a dude, always.
Eventually, she gave up trying to make Ace comfortable and settled for laughing in his face over his nitpicky behavior. You know, queen shit.
This massive thumbs down is my energy towards almost everything these days so it’s an instant save to camera roll.
“I don’t know how to iron clothes, how am I supposed to get married?” Okay, valid question, but I regret to inform Amaya that people get married not knowing how to verbalize big emotions, so she’s actually way ahead of the game!
Even though the pool boy apparently got the ick pretty quickly, Amaya’s big energy for her crushes is a good thing. Since when is manifesting mutual obsession and matching each other’s energy bad? In my book, it’s the ultimate couple goals.
“I feel like I can fart in front of him and he will just fart back!” Shakespeare could never.
I’ve watched this clip, IDK, 25 times, and I still don’t understand “leopart”. Will I be saying it anyway? Yes, I will!
After Amaya was saved by the skin of her teeth during another dramatic AF recoupling, she questioned if she was really meant to be in Fiji anymore (thanks to Ace and others giving her the stank face). But our optimistic Latina princess still found a reason to smile through it all! “I’m feeling sadness, and I’m also feeling a huge weight of grat-ti-tuily.” MW, add it to the dictionary ASAP.
In fact, go ahead and add all of these.
And ofc she follows the number one motto: when a man starts moving mad, move yourself out of the picture.
Stand on biz, baddie.
I think she should drop a mixtape at this point, forreal.
