Love Island USA alum JaNa Craig can feel the heat while watching the newest group of islanders search for love in Fiji.
“I think they are very passionate this season,” JaNa, 29, exclusively shared with Us Weekly while celebrating the 60th birthday of the 7-Eleven Slurpee drink. “I had to think back to my season. Like, were we doing all that? I can’t remember anyone dropping to splits every 30 seconds. I don’t remember, like, ‘What’s your favorite color?’ Kiss, kiss, kiss. ‘Where are you from?’ Kiss, kiss, kiss.”
During season 8 of the Peacock reality show, the contestants have made headlines for enjoying sexy time while coupled up. As for the splits, Kenzie Annis has the internet talking with her flexibility — especially during hot challenges.
“I can’t judge them. They’re a little bit on the younger end,” JaNa explained to Us. “They’re in the earlier 20s, so maybe they’re just really, really exploring, but the only thing that could separate them from all that sexual tension is literally a Slurpee.”
She continued while laughing, “If there’s a Slurpee in between them, you know, like social distancing, it would be a safer place. If you want to share saliva, share with the Slurpee. I’m just kidding.”
On Saturday, July 11, participating 7-Eleven, Speedway and Stripes stores nationwide will once again hand out free small Slurpee drinks to fans ready to enjoy the iconic frozen beverage, including a new Mountain Dew confetti chill Slurpee drink flavor.
“I literally grew up going to 7-Eleven after school almost every day,” JaNa recalled to Us. “There was a 7-Eleven across the street from my elementary, middle and high school, so it’s like a tradition after school to just go get a Slurpee and Hawaiian snacks, because I grew up in Hawaii.”
On Slurpee Day, select 7-Eleven and Speedway stores will also host a special Slurpee Date experience, featuring a unique photo-op bench and limited-edition, bedazzled Slurpee “S” double straws.
While JaNa was recently spotted grabbing a Slurpee drink with a mystery man at a local 7-Eleven, the reality star is staying mum on her dating life.
“The only thing I want to address is, whoever you think it is, it’s not,” she told Us. “I want to keep the love life as low key as possible, and that’s why I make everyone that I’m out with wear shades and a hat.”
Two years after appearing on Love Island USA, JaNa said she doesn’t have an interest in doing another dating show on TV. While she’s open to going on The Traitors if her former costar Rob Rausch can “train me,” she has her eyes set on scripted projects in both movies and TV.
As for all the fans who say her season of Love Island USA with Kaylor Martin, Leah Kateb, Serena Page and more was superior, she appreciates the flattery but promises every cast is doing its own great thing.
“I get that people compare. I guess it’s natural because we’re all from the same world, but respectfully, humbly, I don’t think there will ever be a season six like us,” JaNa proclaimed. “Each and every one of us was so unique. We all had our own story, our own moment. But the other seasons, I think they’re doing good, I think the only way a new season could beat us is if they had Slurpees in the kitchen.”
New episodes of Love Island USA are released six days a week — except for Wednesdays — on Peacock at 9 p.m. ET.
