Lorbin, welcome, man. Thank you. I'm excited to have you. I mean, just like, how is your heart, man? How are you feeling? I feel good, you know. I mean, leaving the villa, it was for sure a 180. You know, I came in there as a regular person.

You know, I could walk into an airport and stuff and no one would recognize me. Coming out of the villa, completely different. First night I was in that hotel, I was in the lobby or something when I got booted off the villa and someone recognized me off that. I was like, whoa, this is like a little glimpse. I was still in Fiji. I was still in Fiji.

Yeah. I was like, oh, this is a little glimpse of what's happened. happening now. And then they said, oh, giving your phones back and after sun and stuff. I was like, oh, that's when anxiety started kicking. I was like, oh, snap. Were you prepared for that? I mean, how familiar were you with, like, Love Island and just like the fan base and how intense it was? I knew it was big because season seven, that's when I watched a little bit. And I seen watch party starting to go up and stuff. And at that time, I was in Gainesville area. So I was like, oh, all those bars, the college town is like, oh, they're doing watch parties. I was like, oh,

This is pretty big. People are really interested in it. But I didn't really have much interest into the show. I didn't really watch too much. I didn't really get any attachment. Oh, this person, oh, they're moving like this, you know? And I was always like, if they put me on the show, I'll do it, I guess, you know? But never was my intention to go on the show.

Were you scouted? Were you scouted. I was scouting. I was scouting. I thought that shit was a scam. Yeah. Pretty sure everyone has said that because, you know, they reach out to Instagram DMs, you know. Everybody gets rare DMs, you know? So you're seeing.

someone say, hey, I work with. Some random casting page. Exactly. It's not verified or anything. Exactly. It's just a random account. You start looking through the page. Like, how is this the biggest show?

And this person has this account type. It's not making sense. Did you respond right away or did you wait a few days? No, I think two people probably reached out to me in the span of like in the scouting process of them reaching on my Instagram DMs is probably like over three months. Yeah, that was of 20, what's around 2027? No, so 2025, they reached out one. I seen it and I don't think I'd done anything.

Okay. And then that December they reached out again and I was like, okay, let me go through with it. I be-est it because I thought it was a scam. I was like, eh, whatever. They sent me a link, let me send the video on whatever. Some questions. Exactly, I be-assed it and then I ain't hear nothing back from them. And then someone else reached out again this year, I think in January or February, and I was

like, oh, I already applied. This is another person. I'm getting the same text. And they're like, oh yeah, we looked at the video and it was, Well, it was bad because I BS did. What did you do? Do you remember what you did? I just had no energy.

Okay. I had no energy. They asked me, what's your name? You know, introduce yourself basically. 30 second pitch, I guess, elevator pitch. I said, I'm Corvin, 22. If you want me. From Miami.

I'll do it. I work out. No emotion, no energy, no personality, no nothing. And then they're like, do it again. Because over the phone call, that's when my personality came out. And they're like, do it again. I think, you know, you have a good fit for. whatever whatever and then i submitted a video gave my personality because like oh i'm actually talking to

someone now i think this actually might be real i submitted a video and next thing you know i'm in la for meeting that's when i really i really felt like oh this is real like they paid for my flight they gave me a hotel like oh shit and then um fiji came once they gave me the call and i'm going to fiji i was like oh we're in it we're in it and then now you know we have that that you know when we go to So the villa is like, oh, are we going to stay in the villa? Now is the challenge. Like, are you going to stay in a villa? When are you going to leave?

That's kind of the ups and downs. When did you find out you were going to be a bombshell versus being the original cast? And did you have an awareness of what that meant? So, yeah, I had awareness of what original cast was in bombshell. I mean, I think I was always leading going into that bombshell route just because of like, I guess my looks. I get the stereotype of a fuckboy already, you know? So, and they told me that I was like, yo, you have fuckboy looks.

like you're good. I think you'll come in and cause them, you know. Exactly. Fuck it up. Do what a bomb show does. And I think I did that looking at the world. Have you gone back and watched your entrance? Yeah, that shit was fire. Yeah. I mean, like, you had a pretty dope entrance in terms of like looking like a rock star and like, did you ever have that much success in one moment with, with, or feel that much desired by a group of obviously very attractive women? So when I was there, they're moving me to the, to, to, I said something about, oh, we're rolling now. Ball is rolling. That means I'm like, ball is rolling.

Am I going in the villa? What's going on? I ain't know nothing. I'm get to the villa, basically. And it's the challenge, the boss bitch challenge. And I'm like, oh, this is a cool set. I'm thinking they're just showing me, giving me the lay of the land, you know. Oh, this is a cool set.

Wow, it's just fired. Like, okay. Nice thing you know, boom, I'm in a suit. Next thing you know, boom, I'm kissing girls back to back. I'm like, what the fuck? Now I'm in here. Like, I'm in it now. No, I'm an Islander.

I'm a bomb show. pretty surreal. Yeah, I was nervous. I'm not going to lie. The first, like, as soon as they said, oh, like, I heard all the Islanders come out, I was like, oh, these are people I was watching, like, you know, while I was in Fiji before I got into the villa. I was like, oh, now I'm actually here. This is the show. It's starting. So it is interesting because like anytime you see someone on TV, there's this like feeling of their famous, right? So even though you knew that this cast, the OG cast, was coming in, did it already feel even though you came in pretty early? You came in pretty Did they feel almost like celebrities in a way?

Were you nervous to meet them? Like they almost had like a leg up on you? Okay, no. I don't think that was the case because I literally went in there with no expectations and I knew I was walking into a villa full of individuals I did not know. They don't know my personality.

I don't know theirs. I don't know what type of friends, like how they are with each other or how they are by themselves. So I was literally walking in there like, oh, now I just got to be myself. So fuck it, just put on the table. And if they like it, they like it.

If they don't, they don't. It's always fascinating when you watch La Valle, especially with yourself and you come in at the challenge. And then everyone starts talking. So what is it like when you get done with the challenge? You've just made out with a bunch of women. Like how friendly or unfriendly is that as the cast? Who is the first person to come up to you and like kind of greet you and made you feel welcome?

There's a difference between a challenge kiss and kissing in a chat. Okay. So when I walked in as a bombshell, and I'm going to mention it because my famous line is, can I get a kiss? It's like, I didn't remember that. You know, can you remind me? Can I get a kiss? Yeah, I laugh on my own voice stems every day.

Anyways, walking into that challenge, the boss bitch, how I came in was kissing six girls back to back to back while having to get to another name. I haven't got to know the personality. Not trying, just walking in and kissing. So I'm like, all right, bet, this is what this game is. So now I'm in a chat. I'm like, oh, wait, we could just kiss. I can I get a kiss and I kept asking for it.

I kept asking for it. I was like, oh. So you asked multiple. Yeah, so I think I asked Kenzie and they're right with Kenzie. I asked Kate him. So no one explained to you

the difference before you came in. You didn't know. No, I didn't know. I didn't, yeah, I thought everybody was just having fun but it is deeper than that apparently and I figured that out

throughout, you know, days of being. I was like, oh, challenge kisses are different because, you know, it's for the challenge. You can't, You can say no if you want to, but hey, we're here to have fun.

You know, it's the summer. We're in a villa. We're in Love Island. Yeah. But then in the chat, that's when it's more intimate. You get to know the person. It's like, oh, now you have an emotional connection. So that's what I was like, ah, that's what I fucked up at.

So who, and who was the first person who kind of greeted you and made you feel welcome after that challenge? First, oh, after the challenge. Or just in general. In general, so that first day or that first night, I was like, wow, I'm sleeping here. First of all, they put me on a hard-ass couch. They didn't even give me a bed. I'm pissed off at that first of all.

They put me in the corner and that bed was hard. Like I don't even know how to describe it. It's probably like Patrick's bed. I don't know. It's like that sand bed. That's what it was like, my back, eh, anyways, whatever. That first night I was like, oh, this is weird. Like everyone's coupled up and I'm in here just sleeping.

All right, fuck it. Next thing you know, I'm trying to get the lay of the land when I wake up. Like, okay, what's the routine? I'm looking at the guys just looking at them, seeing what they're doing. And they're brushing the teeth, da, da, da, da, and then they go out to make breakfast. I'm like, okay, is this the routine? Boom. First person I was out there was, I think Sean was out there. Yeah, because Sean was with Kenzie. And Kenzie likes her breakfast, her breakfast cook, like the first, like, he needs to be the first one in the room. That's how she liked it. So he was

up cooking breakfast and I walked out. And he was like, oh, Corey, what's up? Come. Give me show the later land. And then, yeah, so I'll say Sean. Sean was for sure that first person and sincere also after Sean he was like yeah yeah so I think he was I think he called me bubs at the time I don't know he's like yeah bobs yeah you know when someone doesn't know your name when they give you like a nickname right right something it's like how we say yeah what's up bro you know you don't know the name was oh bro it's up yeah Sean sincere and then everybody else just started trickling down and then yeah so in terms of like knowing the difference between challenge kiss and just the chat kiss did you have to did you kind of figure that out when you got weird reactions or did someone have to be like yo bro

Yo, first day, at first night when I came in, I kissed Kenzie and then I kissed Kada, the next morning I was dealing with shit. I was like, whoa, how did I get into this? Like, well, Kenzie's mad at me because I went to ask for Kada, a kiss from Kada. And I'm like, are you mad at me already? I didn't even do nothing. But I was like, oh, it's spread. And then someone talked and this, this and now.

I'm like, oh, okay. And at that point you kind of realized. And then it's also like Bryce, too, he helped me, you know, understand a little bit more because he was talking about me and he was like, yo. you have to move, you have to, you know, get to know each individual to see if you actually have a connection. And instead of just going into it like a challenge basically where you're just doing it for the fun of it, you don't really care, kind of vibe. So Bryce also changed my mindset on how to approach conversations and just be more emotionally tuned, I guess. Yeah, nice, nice.

Who are you closest with these days? Casey. Casey. Casey is my boy. You boy. I don't know how. I don't know how. Because Casey was there.

Was that different than when you were in the, No, no, no. Yeah, it was always the same. But in the beginning, I think Casey was just like nonchalant. He would just be there. He wouldn't really laugh too much of all the inside jokes we had and stuff. I was like, okay. And I peeped.

I was out. He's just chill, you know, chill dude, not too much personality. I don't know. I don't know where. For some reason, we just started laughing. I guess he started clicking or something. And then literally for like a week straight, we would just laugh nonstop at nothing. Like, we literally just make eye contact and just.

bust out laughing. And then we'll do that in bed too. Like when we're sleeping at night, no one would sleep with us. No one would sleep around us. Anaya, Kenzie. Melanie was in the middle of us with sincere. So they wasn't even getting any sleep.

We were just up talking and shit. Bro's gonna be, bro. That's my dog. When you got your phone back, obviously you mentioned there's just a lot of anxiety. What was like the first thing you noticed about what people were saying? My memes.

Corbin GPT. Did you pick up on, like someone referred to you AI. They did. AI. Did you realize that was something that people were saying? Or did anyone tell you about that? You know, looking back at it, I can see how, yeah, it was call me AI because my mannerisms are very robotic.

But inside the villa, that's just how I am. And it started off with when I walked in to the villa, the first night, I think Sean said, yo, they got you from Mount Olympus and just drop you in here. And I think someone said, yo, you're just, you're created in a lab. Like this dude's AI, he's not real. And then that's when that running joke started just happening. And then when I zoned out, they're like, oh, he's rebooting. Did you feel like overall outside of the memes that you felt like well received?

Or did you feel the criticism at all? Or how did you like prepare for that? For sure, I gave the world ups and downs with emotions. And I know at the beginning was Rocky, for sure. And then also Casa More happened was Rocky. But then also I rebuilt the world and how they played. perceive me after that challenge like cupid challenge i think when we were voting and talking it when i basically talked about sincere and just put them you know say i held them accountable yeah yeah i thought

that was a great moment for you i mean i i was a fan of you from the beginning like i just felt like there was more to you than we were seeing but like that moment was sincere i really appreciated because i think you know it's just easy with the boys that do like you know just the you know fist pumped a locker room talk and like you know everyone's having fun but like it at it and you know i It takes a great friend, obviously, to hold your friend accountable. Like, I loved how afterwards you went to sincere, you kind of cracked a joke about it. Like, what compelled you to want to do that? And is that something that you're, you know, like, is that who you are with your friends outside of the villa?

So, yeah, I'm always going to speak up if something's not right. But in that moment, we had to pick two couples that, I guess, was picking two couples that were that had the least connection or something like that, I guess, at least compatible, or something like that. I already knew Melanie sincere they're going to be good, you know? And I didn't think about them because they're my friends. Sincere's my dog. I was like, okay, I don't even want to think about kicking them out the villa.

Makes no sense. Armita told me her pros and cons of why, because she was new. She came in from Casa and she didn't really have that connection that I did. So she gave me that outside perspective of, oh, I'm not friends of this person, but this is what I'm seeing. So I had to exclude that friendship and start looking at everything, like, very logical, basically, looking at it. And I was like, okay, it makes sense. Now, let me come out here and what? I didn't really have a speech in mine.

You know, I was like, I don't know what I'm going to say. Like, in my head, I was nervous. I was like, bro, I'm about to tell my dog I want to kick him out the villa. Yeah, that was pretty direct. Yeah, I don't even know, like, how I was going to do it. And I think I started off with, you know what, I'm just going to start with this. And then I started talking and whatever I just felt, felt. And, but that was just my chance to hold him accountable.

Were you nervous about how sincere would take that? Yeah, 100%. And I know we got to see a little bit of that conversation, but was he pretty chill about it at all? Or was there any awkwardness at first? No, no awkwardness because he understood. He understood. And then we also talked about us. And that chat after, he was like, yeah, I did feel some type of way because you're my dog.

And I was like, damn. He wanted to kick me off the island. But he really listened to what I said. And it was more so about me taking that time, that moment, to hold him accountable for his action. So he doesn't fuck up in the future anymore. That was like his moment to really realize like, okay, he's hurting his connection, which was Melanie. And then he's also hurting his boys.

And now, yeah, I could have chatted with him saying, yo, bro, you shouldn't be doing this. He might brush it, take. But, oh, it's a regular chat versus in a challenge where spotlights on you, it's like, okay, now you take that moment to really listen. Every challenge that we have or every moment where Ariana, Ariana is out there, it's like, oh, shit, what's about to happen? Like, let me lock in, let me focus.

There's always some, our energy is low. It's always low. It's either someone's getting booted or someone's coming in. That's going to fuck up a connection. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, so. But it's all good. We're still brothers.

Were you guys aware of just like how much sincere was kind of fucking up from the fans' perspective? Or was it not as obvious being in the villa? In the villa, I can't speak of everybody. In the villa, I didn't even know, like, how he was moving through. Because I think I had a chat with Melanie at one point where she was like, sincere is telling me one thing and telling soul the same thing. And I didn't know because I never really spoke to sincere about his connections, like what you're saying. So I was like, man, I don't think he's doing.

that because I don't think the whole villa really knew for real. It was kind of like he said she said kind of vibe. But when movie night came, I was like, ah shit, you was doing this, bro. So now I'm like defending you, but now I was like, ah, you were doing it? Was movie night awkward for you guys?

Like watching? I loved it. I loved it. I loved it. I was saying. Was it because it was like, you know what? Everyone's getting to heat and I'm pretty good. Yeah, like, at the end of the day,

I mean, I've seen my clips about what I said in Koston. And I was like, oh, shit this is this is bad like you know and that's something i do wish i took back how i said certain things when i was watching movie night bro i was seeing k c doing his shit i was like oh you you're cooked cooked i was looking at like but that's my dog you feel me and then um everybody i honestly thought movie night was casey's best moment because it gave like he i think he handled it the best way where he took accountability i'm curious like it must be easy to forget what you said like even the shit that you said and they played it at movie night was like,

the way, what I like so much about KC, because he honestly was like, I don't remember doing that. And then, you know, it's what you guys had the benefit of, and we were saying, we were talking about the show, it's like, you know, fans are critics, and everyone acts like they're a perfect human when they're watching, and if the world had the benefit of movie night, right? Where the world got to every day show you like shit you said

or how you interacted with strangers or when you maybe were like, you came across his route, but you didn't realize it. Yeah. I thought it was really cool how he just was like, man, I'm kind of embarrassed. And then he owned it in the best possible way, which is kind of all you can really do. That's the best thing you could do in that situation.

Just for me, like when I walked into recoupling from CASA, they said, I said certain things. And I was like, bro, I really don't know. And you guys said you seen a live footage. So I'm like, okay, I'm going to take your word that I said that. And if I did say them own up to it, I'm going to say sorry. And that's the same thing with Casey. That's the part where you're like, you were like, Kenzie and I are done. I think I said something like

what was it in the villa? I think it was like I wasn't thinking about her or something. Some. You said a lot. Something like, yeah, I didn't say a lot of shit in a while.

When you went like, when it comes to Casa, like what did you think Casa was going to bring and like what were your guys' expectations to how you thought you should move? So I'm going to start off when before I even went into Casa that night or that day before

Kenzie and I, at least I felt there, that I didn't know, there was ups and downs in our relationship. or our connection that I didn't get to speak to her about, and I wanted to speak to her, and then, boom, Kasa happened. So I was like, oh, shit, I didn't even get to speak about these things that we're having issues with.

What were some of those things that you were feeling? So there's a few things. First, I was on the strike list, like, you know, strike one, strike two, strike three, am I out? Like Kenzie's strike list. Yeah, Kenzie strike list. She said, strike one, something was, I didn't cook her a grilled cheese sandwich or something, even though I guess it was jokes, but strike one.

Strike two was, I didn't pull her for a, chat or something like that. And then I was like, okay, so what's going to be strike three, you know? So that happened. And then I think the other one was like, I don't even know, I think it was some little remarks she would say. And that was kind of like throwing me off. So when I'll talk to her, I think she got, in my opinion, I think she got a little defensive or started being like, being short with her answers. So I want to talk to her, but I didn't get the chance to. So now I'm like, okay, I have this built up in my head about our connection. And now I'm going to Casa with a whole set of a new set of six girls beautiful woman and I was like okay I didn't

get to speak about it so let me see what the connection is here and I found a connection yeah yeah you did um what was it about permita that really drew you to her I think at that time we just started like clicking it was like very more it was friendship for sure but it was also like she looked good so there was also that flirtiness in there so I was like oh this is fire like we're laughing we're chilling like you know best friends kind of vibe but then we also have that like spark of flirtiness. That flirty spark where you just want to catch a vibe with somebody. Yeah.

That was really it though. Our conversations always flowed. It was like I could be myself. I've seen her be herself when I was talking with her. So it was just good and you feel it. Yeah. But now you guys are no longer an item? Yeah, no.

We're not together. And how did you guys come to that decision? After the villa, when we left coming to Miami, we said that we're going to be exclusive. We're going to try and work, work our relationship and see how it is in the real world. Because, bro, that's a dream. Yeah, it's not real. You're not dealing with family.

You're not dealing with friends. You're not dealing with traffic. You're not dealing with some job issues, exes, everything, you know? So coming and say, you have to explore each other and see how you guys handle those situations. And then through that exploring, we have ups and downs. And then we just came to an agreement where it's like we just don't want to, you know, be in a relationship. It's not have a title on it. And just keep it cordial.

Is it just friends or is it friends with benefits? Not friends of benefits. Okay. Just friends. I'm curious, because you talked about the difference between a challenge kiss and a chat kiss. And then every night, you know, when you guys are coupled up, there's always like you guys go to bed. Yeah. You're sharing a bed.

The way they edit, you can't really tell if there's stuff going on. My first question is how much stuff is going on underneath the sheets? And is there an expectation with couples in terms of like if something happens under the sheets? Is that mean even more than a chat kiss? And did you, like, for example, you and Kenzie when you were dating, how much of that stuff, stuff was going on. And did you guys talk about, did that, like, move the relationship or how meaningful was that to both of you? So, I don't think we actually ever talked about how meaningful that was or anything. It was kind of just, like, biving the moment we're chilling. But, yeah,

I don't really think we talked about, like, how that makes us feel. Like, I think it probably grew the connection. You know, we have a deeper connection. But, yeah, I don't think you, no, we really talk about that. But I want to say some people may feel like, like with Zach and Kitt, then went to hideaway. That's pretty big, you know, and they got intimate, you know. So it's like, that bond that you build of somebody, at least that sexual bond that you build of somebody. And then also now you have an emotional attachment because you see this person as your future boyfriend, husband, whatever the case may be. So it's like, yeah, you get that soul tie almost, I guess. But are you hearing other couples like getting hot and heavy underneath the sheets?

And is that like hard to sleep sometimes or was that pretty? To be honest, I'll knock out. I'll knock out. I'll knock out. I mean, you would hear the kiss. and stuff, but I didn't really hear anything else too crazy. You know, I hear little chast, kissing. I didn't hear no crazy things that didn't sound like kissing. So, yeah, I didn't hear no creaking in the bed, no nothing. Where do you in Kenzie stand today? We're good.

You're good? Yeah, yeah, we're good. Did you guys have any, like, conversations, like getting out of the villa just to kind of settle any differences that you guys had? No, I think it was more so, like, when I left the villa, gave her a hug. She was saying, like, sorry for everything or something like that. that. He's like, yeah, it's all good. You know, we're still going to be good. And then, yeah, now I'm here. I think I'm like the middleman. I have no beef. Like, I'm just here. Like, I'm just existing at this point.

This is great. What do you think of some of the beef that's going on between the cast? It's hard to tell because, like, I hear about it when they tell me about it. You know, when people bring up certain things, they're like, oh, that's going on? For real? I didn't even notice. So who's been the most communicative to you in terms of the drama that they're experiencing? bro, to be honest, I think it's as a collective. So I talked to Casey, sincere, I talked to Bryce, I talked to Gabe, and they all tell me their own sides of what's going on. I'm like, oh, for real.

And I think maybe I'll check out, like, what's going on or see if there's something. But if it's not popping up on a for you page, real, like, I'm not going to do too much digging. It's not my life, but, like, I do wish the best for, you know, wish they handled everything and it's going good. Does it, I mean, do you feel like it's affecting some of your peers' ability to kind of enjoy this experience because kind of your point, you're just like, you know what? Yeah. It's not my problem. I want to enjoy this very unique time in my life.

But it seems like some of your peers are kind of getting wrapped up in it. I'll talk about KC's situation because I didn't even know that. In the reunion, he brought up that he was getting deaf threats and his family was getting threats. T.T. was getting threats, all of that stuff. I didn't really know where it stemmed from because I didn't know why he was getting those reactions.

Yeah, people are very passionate about KC. Yeah. Yeah, fans are crazy. And I didn't even know because I didn't do too much digging. So like when Gabe, no, not Gabe, I think Parmito would say, because she would talk to T.T. Almost every day. She would be like something, they're dealing with something right now. And then I'll call Casey, but, you know, he's busy trying to do his own life, deal with all that.

But I didn't know that. So reunion comes. And he talks about, you know, he's getting death threats and stuff. And that's crazy because I've just gotten like my address or my phone, my parents, phone numbers and their names, full names, whatever. to me, I'm like, oh, this is kind of scary. But to have someone say actual death threats to you, that's not, that's unacceptable. It's TV and how they edit the stuff. It makes you someone who you're not.

And that's like now coming out the villa, you have to show these people who you really are. Yeah. And I think that did affect Casey's experience because now he was like, or at least back then, he was in the shadows. You know, he wasn't posting too much. He was trying to get his mental right. But I think now he's, you know, good because the reunion, he talked about it, addressed it. And I think now he's at a mental place where he's able to come out and shoot content.

We're shooting content together, you know. I love seeing him as the first time seeing him at the villa. Who do you think, maybe he could just go down the list. I'd love from your perspective, because you've gotten to know these people in the villa. Yeah. From your awareness, like, let's start with Casey. How do you think Casey is the most understood versus like what you think fans think of them versus the man you got to know?

That's hard to explain because I barely watched the show too. So I didn't really see too many of those clips of how he was moving. All I can really go off of is movie night. Because that is just embedded in my brain. Casey was just in the villa. I'll say how he's perceived online was like a chill guy. You know, he had his ups and downs of happy and then also nonchalant. Then he had his goofy side with me, you know,

and that's when personality started coming out. But in the reality, bro, it was like his brain, he's strategically thinking about everything. Like, bro, from his photo shoot I seen it, I was like, whoa. to his podcast that he dropped. I was like, damn, all right. And I'm not talking with him now being now I'm in L.A. with him, I'm hearing his plans. I'm like, oh, this dude, actually thinks through everything.

Like, he does, he's not impulsive. He's not, like, immature on what he's thinking. He knows what he's going to do. And he knows, like, what it should, what the outcome should be. And that's what I really respect because he has that creative and strategic mindset. And I was like, oh, damn, bro, you're like locked in, dog. Yeah. So that's pretty cool to see that.

Because I didn't see that in the villa. You know, he's not faced with having. to make creative ideas, content. You were not faced with what outfits we want to wear for real to step out and, you know, show to the world. The villa, we don't have that stuff. You know, it's kind of like, put on our shorts, take off our shirt, cook breakfast, call it days, have some chats.

Yeah. Sincere's had, obviously, to do, like, the whole apology tour. He apologized. It seems like a lot at the reunion. Yeah. But obviously, it seems like sincere pretty close to a lot of people. And it sounds like he's a pretty likable guy. What are some of the good qualities that aren't.

aren't being talked about the sincere that you've gotten to know as a human being. He's a good friend. He's a good friend. He talks with you. He's good with his words because he would understand you. He'll sit there, listen, understand. And then he'll drop one of his famous metaphor lines. Swear every time, every conversation that happens. Sincere is a, he's a good dude and he would understand every situation that you're in. And he'll be, he'll try and make the light, the better light come out of it. You know, even if you're having like a bad day, it would be like, it's okay, Pups, but, you know, at the end of the day, this is a new 24 hours and something, something, something. That's a pretty good impression.

At the reunion, like, a lot of, surprisingly, Seoul was a big part of the drama with, like, the core four. Oh, I did see that. Yeah, like, when I got out the village, she was on lives and stuff. I mean, she was making the most of it. Like, I think, like, the big, you know, her big accusation or critique was she didn't feel, like, welcomed by the rest of the women. Just like, from your perspective, someone who was there.

And then obviously the core four, they were like, no, we didn't see it that way. where did you see it? I think soul and the girl's relationship is separate. I can't speak on it because, you know, they go to the dressing room. They have, I don't know how it is on that intimate setting. But when we are out in the kitchen, I do see some interactions happening. But I can't really say if she was excluded or not because, you know, the guys are still trying to talk with her and do things. But I think looking back at it, if you have that mindset of, I think what was she saying in the reunion?

And she said, I feel like I was, I think she said I wasn't given a good, a fair chance or her experience was bad because she felt excluded and stuff. As a bombshell, it's going to be hard. Like, you can't go in there and be liked by everybody. Like, I knew I was going in there and not going to be liked by everybody. But at the end of the day, we're bombshell. That's what we're here to do. We're here to shake some shit up. And either these people don't want to be your friends or not, you still have to move for yourself.

You were more like, hey, I got to make these people, I got to show who I am. And you expected the kind of vibe that soul felt as well, but you just didn't let it stop you. Yeah, you're not supposed to because like if you want to have chats, pull him for chats. If this person's not interested or you feel like he's not interested in you, then I move to the next or pull another chat and address it like, oh, are you interested in me? And then if you're not interested, go into like a friendship conversation now instead of trying to move as I'm trying to get coupled up, try and move as, okay, let me just talk to you now as a friend because I know you're not interested no more. instead of just not shutting down, but feeling like you're excluded because no guy or some guys just felt like they're closed off, it's hard to be in a connection coupled up with somebody for a week and two. And someone comes in, it's like, now you have to do something better for this one instance that I'm seeing you,

or in these next few chats that I have that will sway my connection, be like, oh, maybe I am a little bit more interested in this new person that came in. You hear me? So it's like, it's levels to it. and you have to know how to play it, you can't let one thing stop it. Yeah. Like for me, all right, we'll bring up in the beginning.

Kada. Kada was cool. And then I got turned down for the kiss. I was like, all right, she don't fuck with me. Fuck it. Now I'm gonna go with a friendship vibe,

you know, and just I'm not gonna pull for chats. Like, I want to have a connection, but I'll still talk to a little here and there, you know, and just to small banter like we're friends. And that's just the way I moved

instead of being like, oh, Kada's not fucking with me. She didn't want to give me a kiss. All right. Let me not be here, friend. Let me not, you know, be cool with her. Yeah.

So I think you got to play it here by year. Sure, sure. Another person who's oddly gotten a lot of criticism and he to Zach, and he's kind of had a tough time post-villa. From your standpoint, who is Zach? And are you friends with him? You got to know. That's my dog.

I mean, I can't ask you why you think he's gotten the criticism. But, like, yeah, for some reason, people thought he was too strategic or he spoke out a lot and they guess took that as insincere. I mean, he was. He was like the narrator, right? So, like, he had, you know, you would hear, like, sound bites of him thinking about what I think is going to happen next. And I guess fans kind of took that as, like, almost him being too strategic rather than

leading with his heart, so to speak. I mean, that's one thing when it comes to reality TV, like, fans don't want to hear strategy. Yeah. They take that as, like, it being, like, disingenuous. Like, you're thinking too much and not leading with your heart or something. I don't know. Okay. All right.

So I remember Kip, when him and Bryce were on those, like, little pink chairs. And I think that's when Zach was like, I don't think Trinity likes you or something like that. Yeah, yeah. Like that, what you mean? People are like, then the fans are taking as like, oh, he's trying to, you know, he's trying to break them up or some shit or, you know. Hmm.

I don't know. I don't think Zach is like that. I do know he is in his head sometimes. He does think a lot for sure. But that dude has great intentions, man. He's a great guy. Specifically with Kada, you see a lot of love between. Yeah.

Oh, 100%, man. Yeah. Like, every time we're in that villa, he would always talk about Kada. like oh shit she's bad like damn yeah because she would like put him in his place sometimes like i don't know he says he loves dominant woman so it's funny because she's dominant towards him so it's like oh dog and he he gets all giddy and shit when um she does something very i guess dominant um she's like put this in the trash or Zach can you do this yeah it takes charge and then he's like oh okay so now you're you're a single guy yeah you're a little famous you know you got

a following what's your type i don't really have a specific type. I literally just date off of personality and energy. What kind of personality that usually attracts you? All right. So I guess my villa personality was different because I came into the villa. I was like, yo, I want someone that's very bubbly, energetic, someone that's 24-7 has energy high. But that was because I was coming from a low where I was basically secluded and I was like, oh, okay, this energy is nice. Let me be around it. I like that. I want it. But now being outside of the villa, I think, or through that whole experience, my time, has changed on the energy, I guess.

It's more like, I want you to be like someone who can be outgoing, but also know how to chill and relax, but also still have that high, but not so high where it's like clingy almost. Okay, yeah. You get me? Yeah, yeah. But that's kind of the energy that I flow with.

But I don't really know. What is something that would immediately turn you off on a first date? If you're too, not materialistic, but like, not bougie. Maybe bougie, yeah. Like, you coming in here talking about, like, bro, wonder if I want to take you to a coffee day and you're like coffee, man, fuck you're taking me the coffee for it. Like, bro, what?

If you don't buy me, fucking take me to SDK or something like that, you know? Spend $500 on me the first night or something. Like, bro, it takes time. Like, I got to get to know you. Let's get a coffee. Let's do a little days, do dinner, whatever. And then over time, if you're cool, then. Speaking of Bougie, a lot of people got to see Yur and Primita's exit video in the van.

What do you mean? You guys were kind of going back and forth and she was kind of giving you shit and then she's like you were more like hey it's a two-way street we got to get to know each other yeah and she she was like i'm i know miami i've dated djays i've dated athletes i've dated whatever the fuck uh the internet had some fun with with that clip what was that like in the moment to hear permeida talk about her kind of dating roster when it comes to miami when i heard that because i've you know i've been in situations with girls have said that to me before and that's like that is a turn off because like why are you telling me you

about that. But in that conversation, the beginning of it was like, I think she was like, hey, I'm 27, you're 22. These are people that I've already dealt with. And this is the type of vibe that I've already been with. So I know I've explored. But she worded it just horrible. And she knows that. I know that. And the world knows it. She said, I've been with rappers, athletes, all of that. I was like, oh, okay. Yeah, I was like, bro, why are you telling me? I don't give a fuck. You feel me? And that's why she was like, does that not change your mind? I was like, no, it doesn't. Because you could literally be a millionaire two weeks ago. You could be a millionaire.

And two weeks later, you're not. You know? So you could have that experience that say you don't want to do it. But then when that time comes, either whatever it may be, you might be back in that situation. I suppose she meant it in a way that she's like she's not easily, like, necessarily impressed, but like she, like she knows how to be around. Yeah.

Like. I think, I mean, I don't really know what was, I didn't really talk to her about. I was like, yeah, it sounds kind of fucked up. But I guess we know what we talked about. What's a red flag that you have realized that you will ignore when you're dating and you like really like a girl? Oh, shit. I don't know, bro. It's something about like, it's not toxic, the toxic vibe, but it's like, it's like, I don't know, bro.

It's just a red flag that I overlook. Yeah. Maybe like, yeah, being toxic, I guess. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's because, like, I don't know. It's like a fiery moment. moment you guys are talking i mean i hate it i don't like dealing with the arguments i don't argue for

nothing i don't do that drama stuff but it's like i don't know when it just happens it happens and say okay now we're we're here is bad and then oh it gets good so it's like highs and lows but you're fucking up you're fucking with your dopamine and shit do you have something you're kind of like embarrassingly attracted to nah no no pretty straightforward straightforward i tell you straight up like yeah i want to date you or not in color that's how we move forward like first two days of us talking like what do you want? Do you want a boyfriend? Do you see yourself in the future? If you say no, then I bet we're going to be friends with benefits call it other day. But then if you say, yeah, I want a relationship to that. And then I'll be, okay, do I want a relationship right now? And I'll

tell you, I don't want a relationship, but your body is cool. You know what I mean? And then we just go progressively. You never know what happens in the future. You know, you build a connection with someone and then might be your wife in the future. Who knows? You never know. You're a pretty young guy. You're only 22. Only two. And you seem obviously pretty self-aware. Are you kind of like, you know what? Dating's off the table for me.

I'm going to enjoy this experience. I'm not trying to like lock in or a couple. Are you still like, you know, because I think you talked about like you want a family someday. Yeah. While young, you also see mature for your age. You seem like you have a lot of hopes and dreams. So like what is like a dating in your head?

Like nothing's perfect. You can't predict the future. But what is your dating timeline? I think, you know, in the villa and after the villa, you know, exploring with Parmita and growing that connection. And now being that we're single, we're done with each other, I think I was pushing myself to grow up too fast. You know, because my mindset, I grew up with older parents. So I have that older mindset kind of vibe. So I don't really, I wasn't able to go out when I was young.

I wasn't able to go to parties, go to friends' house, I was able to do sleepovers, all of that. So I kind of grew up on my own, isolated kind of vibe. So I guess I'm a homebody. So I don't really go out to clubs. I don't party too crazy every week and stuff. So I was like, oh, I don't do that. That's not, and now I'm 21. I'm not doing that.

Now I'm 22. I'm still not doing it. So fuck it. Let me just try settling down, you know? So I always get them that gave me the idea. Like, okay, let me just settle down, settle down. I think now being that we're done, I think I'm going to take the step back and actually move as like, not an actual young person, but just have fun of my life, you know, explore, experience,

ups and downs, give me that experience. So when I'm at the age of 27 plus, whatever, I've been through those ups and downs where I was like, oh, I don't have that desire to do that anymore, you know? Yeah. But at the end of the day, I'm so business focused is that, like, I don't want a party unless there's, like, some business involved. If I'm connecting with someone or I'm around someone who has, who's going to help me in my future and I can help them in their future, I want to go.

You know, I want to grow my business. Cake was exclusive where it's like, okay, now how am I going to do this, this, and this to grow it into something big instead of going out the party getting blacked out? Because I've done that before. I was like, I'm waking up the next day. Like, fuck, bro, I'm not doing nothing the whole day now. Just wasted 48 hours. Yeah.

What, has there been like a surreal moment since coming down the villa of like either meeting a celebrity you didn't, like that kind of blew your mind or? To be honest, the streaming and YouTube world that I'm going down right, that route that I'm going down right now, it's crazy because these are individuals that I've watched when I was growing up. Like I was young, I was like, bro, they're celebrities, bro, they're famous. I'll never be there.

I'll never see them. And the fact that I was able to meet up with those individuals, I don't know, can I name job? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, the fact that I was able to meet up with DDG, Bender Don, J. Cinco, Nick, Nick Nassiera, and Nissiere, I'm butchering his last. name holy shit but I'm meeting up these individuals I've seen on the YouTube

and entertainment world and it's like wow I'm here with you guys and now it's like okay let me produce some content let me get my personality out there so I think yeah did you before you went on Love Island what what what did like a successful career look like to you and how has that changed now that you are okay an Islander yeah so I graduated December of 2025 with a marketing degree I jumped straight into a marketing agency. And I did that for like maybe two, three months almost. And I don't know, for some reason I just wasn't my vibe. I did want to work in a marketing agency. I would like that creative mindset almost. And then I was like, you know what? I don't want to do this no more.

Let me quit and figure out something else. At the time, I was building a new company where it was helping basically being a business promoter, not a club promoter, but being a business promoter and bringing vendors to events and events to vendors or certain things like that. And then Love Island came. And then now what? What success looked like to you? Or what do you hope to make of this moment you're having? I want to get into the modeling industry, the high fashion model industry.

My parents, when they were younger, they were models. My sister, she was a model when she was a kid. My brother, he tried modeling when he was a kid. When it came to me, they said, no. I didn't even put me in there. So I'm like, damn, I got to do it on my own. And so now that I have the platform, I'd love to get into some high fashion modeling. You got the face, man.

Acting would be pretty far, actually. Like, let me take some acting classes. Have you ever tried? Nah, I've never tried. But let me take some acting classes. I think I, no, let me perfect some things. Definitely take some classes, man. Get into that, do some movies, bro.

Then also right now growing into that real estate side, like I said, Kate was exclusive. Company I started in, I was a junior in college, I think, when I started that. So now it's like trying to grow those villas and those rentals out. that's another side aside from the entertainment. Then I also want to do the YouTube and the streaming and stuff. So I have two sides. Stay in the entertainment world, but then also this is something outside of the entertainment world.

Do you hope, like the entire group remains friends, or do you envision it kind of some you'll be closer with others? With me? I know I'm going to be friends with everybody. I'm going to be cool with everybody. I can't speak for everybody else, but I know I would like to keep these relationships. It's going to be hard, though,

because I am horrible. I'm a horrible communicator through the phone. Like, I barely call and text people. I forget to text people back. Like, oh, I read the message, but, and then I read it, and I'll think I text back, and then I don't text back. Hours go by, and it's like, ah, shit, now I'm here. It's probably really fucked up your dating life.

I'm sure you've really got a lot of trouble with that. Communication is horrible, but I'm a phone call person. Like, call me on a phone, call it a day. But, yeah, I would reach out to everybody. And if we're in the same area, yeah. Okay. I think the world wants to know someday you're going to date and you're going to settle down.

Yeah. And so we want to ask you some more like, what are Corbyn's kind of dating preferences, do's and don'ts? Yeah. So question, should a couple know each other's phone password? Nah. I mean,

what would be a reason where you think that would be a red flag? Because don't put yourself in a position you don't want to be put in. Okay. Like, if you think you're, if you're already going into a relationship where I want to know this person's password, you have some intentions of, I want to go through his phone, apparently, or the person, they want to go through the phone. And that's never a good thing.

Like, I don't even go through phones anymore after my situation. Like, there's always one situation where you go through a phone is like, you'll never look at a phone ever again. You'll never go through it ever again. You did that? Yeah, I did it one time. And I was like, yep, I mean, shit, I put myself here. I found some shit on that.

PTSD, no, I don't want to look at your phone. What would, you know, as I got older and had relationships, that's, you know, began and ended. You realize that, like, if I got all my girlfriends together, I bet they would all say this shit about me, like a bad habit I have or, like, just something annoying I do. Like, what is something that if I got all your exes together, assuming they'd overall say you're a great guy,

but what would be one thing they're like, you know, this motherfucker? I've only been in, like, two relationships. Okay. Everything else's been situations. And those two relationships were polar opposites of each other. How so? Polar. First relationship, that was, that was my first one. I think I was 18. I was a freshman in college. Yeah, freshman second semester in college. And that was nice, right? I mean, that was my first time actually settling down with somebody. And that was like, oh, we can date. Like, it's like, this is what a relationship feels like having someone in your corner and stuff. But we just, we didn't work out. It was, you know, yeah. It was also very young. And my last, one that was my longest one so my first one I think I was in there for six months around six

months yeah I seen the video I don't know why she said a year but oh she made a video she made a video I don't know why she said a year and then my last relationship I was like a year and a half that one showed me like she was more she was very family oriented and I'm not family oriented no I like I'm not close to my family in that sense I meant and she's very she was very close to her family. In terms of like they spent a lot of time. Spent a lot of time. Like we don't,

we're not affectionate, you know, we don't say I love you at night and things like that. Now it's kind of going in because I'm not there 24-7 anymore. So they're like, oh,

I love you, you know, stuff like that. And I'm also opening up more with them. This experience helped me open up a lot. Like, now I know how to communicate about my emotions and stuff.

Did it feel like kind of like emotional therapy being there? No. Yeah. For real. Like, it's my first, look,

all right, Love Island, literally has team, like a team for our mental to be good. And that's the first, like, I was always against doing, you know, therapy and stuff. You could figure out your own stuff and your own problems and stuff.

You don't need to go comply with someone else. I was always against it until I went into it for real. And I was like, oh, this is amazing. Like, now I want to talk with you every day because now I need to get this off on my chest, right? So that helped me. And then my emotions through there, like I was a closed wall when I first came into the villa.

I was very nonchalant, very chill, it wasn't speaking too much, like, robotic. Yeah, robotic. Then through time of that experience, I started opening up, motherfuckers got me to cry. That was a great moment for you, man. They got me to cry. So I was like, damn.

Was that your first time crying in front of your friends? First time crying in a, like, a few years. I don't think I've cried for real, for real, or at least shut a tear in, like, probably over five, six years. Yeah, it's funny when you say that about, like, the therapy kind of brings me back when, I was on The Bachelor a long time ago, and I remember meeting up with one of my boys

were filming with, and he was like, man, I fucking miss, like, talking to the producers and stuff. Because, like, you just, you get so comfortable opening up, and then that ends, and you're just like, you want to get back in that chair. Exactly. Just because you want to be able to, like,

have this freedom. It's like this safe space and say whatever, and they're not judging you. Exactly. It feels, it feels good. Yeah, you know, you just get weight off your shoulders. Yeah. But I do, I do preach that, you know.

know if you have something in your head for sure for sure speak to someone about it and just taking their perspective on the whole situation but at the end of the day you're the person that makes a decision you know yeah you could have all these opinions you could have people saying words saying left right this this but at the end of the day you would be the one to make that decision to go through whatever you want to do yeah but it's for sure good to talk to someone and i've i've learned A lot is made, like, and just when we talk about dating in general, like the younger generation, and like Zach and Kada would kind of define it because they were like, we don't want to be exclusive or we don't want to be in a relationship.

And older guy like me is kind of like, it feels way too complicated the whole like defining relationships and like what's a situation? Yeah. Yeah. What is your stance on that? Because being a direct guy like yourself, it seems like a little. It's BS, bro. Yeah, it's like what's going on here?

It's out of there. You're going to date or you're not going to date? Like, for me. I don't go on breaks. There's no such thing as a break in a relationship. Like, you don't become boyfriend and girlfriend and go on a break and then do whatever you want to do and then come back to each other. Sometimes that's the case.

You come back to each other. It's like a free part of it. You're dating. You're not dating. Now, being that I was in a situation where I was exclusive with someone, I think that's a step before making it, you know, actually a title, girlfriend and boyfriend. But for me, it's like how long until after or how long,

are you going to be in this exclusive title before you make it an actual title title, title? Because, you know, it's like saying you're with your boyfriend and he hasn't proposed to you in five years. When is he going to propose? You know, but you kind of get at that coast where it's like,

we've been doing all these ups and downs are already moving like it. Like, what's the point, you know? And I think that's, that might be the difference. That's why I'm like, so direct. We're dating or we're not dating. I know your dating experience is limited, but what makes you feel the safest in your relationships,

be it friends, be it romantic partners? communication communication communication is what I stand on heavy because and as someone who you know who admits you're a bad communicator how like yeah does that make you like but you know listen like we're often attracted things we're not good at so is that if that's been really helpful for you when you have someone who really opens up well when I say communication I mean like just in terms of just texting and stuff and in person yeah I'll talk with you left right left right but like reaching out and actually doing texting a lot I don't really do too much of that I mean, now I'm getting better, but it's not so much, like, bad communicating, like,

about my emotions and how I feel. Like, now it's better because the whole experience, I know how to talk about my emotions and understand other people. So it's like, that's good. Now I can communicate with that. But it's more so being in the same line. So we're not, like, being misled between certain actions as someone's doing. Like, we're both, you tell me something.

I tell you something. You tell me how you feel. I tell you how I feel. Okay, now, let's how we're going to move forward. You know, so we're on the same page instead of being one on this chapter and the other one and this one. Outside of communication, what has being on Love Island taught you the most about having a successful relationship? It's hard because being in the villa, it's different. It's a different vibe. You're not really seeing someone that you're connecting, like you hit up.

You're not seeing them 24-7 chatting with them sleeping next to them in the next 30 minutes for however long that couple goes on for. But I think through that experience, it's for sure communication. Like that's the only way things will go good. So that's why I'm like big on it because if you tell one person, one thing and you tell another person another thing, now it's like, okay, we're playing telephone here. Someone's going to say this and then they're going to be, oh, you said this though, and then it's going to contradict everything. And you're going to be a whole world of shit.

Communication for sure. And then also just being there because during the villa, we had ups and downs, you know, challenges were stressful for some islanders after like, oh, they had to see their partner kiss somebody, you know, and now they would have to talk with their partner and not like, okay, why does this make you feel like this? Okay, now you have to be like, oh, no, I understand where you're coming from, but that's not the case. It's a challenge. You talk with them through it. But then also you have recoupling now. That's like, okay, that's very high stress moment because you don't expect to go sleep with another person now after you're building a connection with

someone or you might get booted off the villa so it's not you're dealing with all the stress and you know it's just all ups and down so learning how to just talk with people yeah and understand them that's as big is there anything we didn't see or that they didn't show that you wish they did i mean with parmita and i we were given that we just kiss and we're just that we're just too hot people you're high i'm high we're almost perfect kind of vibe you know but we did have a lot more chats than that you know that were longer there was one edit or one scene where it was like she asked me, I want to get to know you or something on a deeper level. And I said, yeah, slapped her eyes and said, give me a kiss or something like,

or they cut that whole combo out. And I was like, ah, so I see how they, now I can see why the world says, okay, we're, we're just kissing, we're intimate, we're just two sexual people, you know, or lustful. That's the word that they use, not lustful people. As someone who now is getting recognized in public, what is the best way someone can approach you in public that makes you still feel like safe? and it's a fun situation. And do you like being approached in public?

Oh, I love it. 100% I love it. Like, it's amazing seeing how they just... So it's funny. There's two types of individuals that come up. There's some that just... They'll walk, walk, walk. They'll recognize you.

They'll be like, wait. If we look like, you know they're scared to kind of ask for a photo or just say hi or something. And then I'll see them. I'll make an icon. I'll be, hey. And they come, yeah.

You can take a picture. You know, that's funny. Because then their whole vibe changes. It's like, oh, my God. I thought you were going to say no, or I thought you were just going to be stuck up or something like that. You're actually very chilled, dude, and just seeing that smile. And the second person is like, they see you from a mile away. All 32 is just smiling like, oh my gosh, Corvin.

They tell me, they say all my voice stems. Before they say my name, they say my voice names. They're like, and my voice stems. They're like, Melanie. They're like, this is a smoothie or something. Like, they say all of those before they say, oh, Corvin is you. But sometimes they say, oh, Corbyn is you from Love Island. This is so cool.

But I love all the interactions. Have you had any family members send memes to you about yourself? Or have you sent your own memes? My grandma. My grandma. All right, that's one thing I did not expect because I didn't tell her about it because she's very religious. And I didn't tell her anything about me going on a show where I'm kissing multiple women and putting my body out there. So she was like, oh, she was just praying for me every time she's seen it because she just watches YouTube.

or live television and YouTube showed all my god damn clips on the shorts so she's over there she's what she's 80 81 now so she's over there on the tv just scrolling scrolling and she sees all these clips of her grandchild just on there like what is corvin doing oh my gosh and now she's seen all the voice stems she said she sent me a video saying Melanie and she said i think she said can i get a kiss and her like voice and so i was like oh my god grandma how do you know this you know but she's my biggest, she's my biggest supporter. That's awesome, man. Well, I know you how you're going. It's been great getting to know you, man. I wish you the best of luck. I really enjoyed watching you, man. I thought you're really a unique person. And I always like the people who like present

as one way. You can tell her something more. You know, like reality TV puts us all these in these silos, you know, and now we have an opportunity to get to know you, the human being. So I look forward to get to know you more as you put yourself out there. And, and just best luck with everything, man. And it's fun to see you have the success. Thank you. Yeah, yeah. I mean, I don't know. Can I name drop, like, my YouTube and stuff?

What I was going to do? Because what you're talking about is, you know, getting to know me and stuff. I've already built a long form kind of, I already built a platform on Love Island with long form content. And they've seen a certain side. And now for me to show my actual personality, yeah, I might have robotic mannerisms and stuff. But I have a personality, you know, I'm human. And in case anyone didn't know, he's a real version. I didn't know.

I am human. I'm a real person. But the one way to bring that out is through my YouTube channel, you know, and just doing that long form content and also getting into streaming and just interacting with everyone that just wants to ask me questions or just be a part of my life. And that's just where I'm going through now. And where can they find it? Oh, y'all can find my YouTube at Corbiski, C-O-R-B-S-K-I-I, Twitch is the same thing, Instagram

the same thing and TikTok's the same. You a gamer? Nah, no game. What are you doing on Twitch? Twitch is just for live stream. IRL live stream. Gotcha. So day to day, you know, I might be going to the gym.

I might be going out. I might be going on a trip. So I'm trying to get into the luxury, the lifestyle, to traveling, the having fun. I'm 22 in Miami. You know, let's see where the connections take me. All right, man. Any TV in your future outside of Love Competition shows?

Oh, yeah. I can't do no more dating shows. I can't do it. That was a one and done experience and I'm glad I did it with the biggest one, Love Island. So, but I would probably do like, what is it? Traders?

Traders? Yeah. Traders is pretty cool, right? I think that's like with challenges and stuff. Yeah, I like that one. I would do something competitive, nothing kissing related anymore. Okay.

I think I'll put myself to that. Yeah. But I think I'll go into that. All right. Well, best of luck, man, again. It's been, I appreciate you taking the time. It's been great, getting to know you. Of course.

And excited to see how things take off for you, man. Yeah, me too. Thank you so much. Appreciate you.
