As fans brand Kaz Crossley the most ‘snakey’ Love Islander, 5 moves that give her away revealed by expert

KAZ Crossley wrapped up Wednesday’s episode of Love Island with quite a surprise, sharing an unexpected kiss with Ronnie Vint.

Just moments after the 28-year-old had locked lips with Elma Pazar, Kaz and Ronnie were seen sneaking a smooch in the Secret Garden.

Although Kaz admitted she "felt bad" for Elma, she didn't hesitate to whisk Ronnie away from prying eyes for their secret kiss.

Even Ekin-Su took notice, reaching out to Elma to warn her about Kaz and Ronnie, all while keeping an eye on their hiding spot.

This isn’t the first time Kaz has stirred things up on Love Island All Stars.

Fans have pointed out her numerous “snakey" moves since the series began, and how she's not a "girls, girl."

Earlier on, Kaz sparked the first row of the series by clashing with bombshell Casey O'Gorman within moments of his arrival.

Fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts. One wrote: “Kaz done p***ed me off. I was rooting for her too. She had the most to say about Casey just to have sneaky intentions regarding Ronnie.

"Ekin Su looked like she was tripping whole time she felt the snakey energy. Elma defo needed that chat with Ekin-Su."

A second commented: "Kaz is not giving girls girl its like she wants a guy cos someone else wants him."

Another added: "Kaz is getting way too much airtime!!! How do you go from Curtis, to Luca, to Ronnie?!? I know it's a game but she's overdoing it!"

Someone else said: "Thought Kaz was a girls’ girl, even asked for permission to speak to him and everything. Why would you kiss him wait, didn’t they watch Ronnie’s season? Lmaoo."

Body language expert Judi James, who is working with throughout Love Island All Stars, exclusively told Fabulous: “When a girl gets Ekin-Su throwing disapproving looks for her actions, she should know she’s crossed the line.

"That girl is Kaz, whose flair for drama and flirting suggests she saw Ekin-Su as the star of this series and immediately set out to challenge that crown.”

Here, Judi reveals the five key moves that show how Kaz, 29, may not be the ‘girls, girl’ she’s trying to portray. 

Taking Out Casey

Love Island’s Casey O’Gorman, 29, was left blindsided after Kaz launched a verbal attack on him as he entered the villa.

She tells him: "I’ve heard you have been with a lot of girls. That puts me off."

And fans on X were left slightly baffled by her reaction, with one writing: "I don’t even like Casey but very weird of Kaz to jump on him the minute he got in the villa and then says he’s taking it personally? Umm yeah? Cos it is getting personal?"

Judi says: “Her instant destruction of Casey’s reputation as she openly and very loudly accused him of not having a ‘good reputation with girls’ helped to pin her very smartly as a totally loyal and legendary girls’ girl.

“She made it look like she would get revenge on behalf of her girlfriends, have their backs and not back down in an argument.

Her handshake came with a limp wrist disdain and a wicked-sounding laugh

Judi James

“It set up her reputation for what was to follow, i.e a series of disloyal acts aimed primarily at the other girls in the villa.

“Her body language with Casey showed her ability to confuse via the use of counter-intuitive facial displays and gesticulation. 

“She verbally pasted him, using a toxic non-specific list of examples of his behaviour but teamed with shrugs, arm splays and upturned palms to suggest she was being fair and friendly.

“Her ‘maybe I just felt like saying it’ made her sound like a free spirit rather than an assassin but her ‘I’m sorry’ came with hair-preening, pit-baring rituals that suggested she’d achieved her objective. 

“Her handshake came with a limp wrist disdain and a wicked-sounding laugh.”

Stirring the pot with Luca

Luca decided to confide in Kaz to seek her advice about how Olivia Hawkins, nicknamed Liv, knows one of his friends outside the villa, and that he felt that this meant he couldn’t date her. 

However, before Luca Bish had a chance to speak with Liv about it, Kaz had already told her - which evidently caused her to cry. 

Fans thinks Kaz had an ulterior motive, with one writing on X: "Kaz wants Luca fairs but to go and tell Liv what he said under the guise of girl code is messy bootsss man."

Judi says: “Based on her performance with Casey, Luca trusted her.

“Kaz’s non-verbal response was a signature ritual of utter delight that she uses a lot when she’s happy. 

“It’s called ‘Beetling’, where she lays on her back wriggling her arms and legs in the air like an up-turned beetle. 

“It’s a very huge ‘Tell’ but it seems to register a state of anticipational glee.

“But Kaz later chatted to Liv, starting with the kind of baby voice and touch rituals that suggest sympathy. 

“Her words ‘he’s not feeling you’ about Luca was misleadingly conclusive and led to tears from Liv, but Kaz won her to her side by revving her up with displays of concern and supportive phrases like ‘Who cares?’”

Flaunting with a kiss

As the Love Island games commenced, Scott Thomas picked Kaz for a kiss before she was then also picked by Luca for a three way kiss with India Reynolds. 

Judi says: “Love Island games always involve kissing and flirting but Kaz set out to prove her superior attractive status by taking the kissing several steps further than necessary in what looked like a power and status display to the other girls. 

“When Scott picked her, she stood up performing preening rituals to show her superior beauty. 

“She grabbed his face and set about Scott with an open mouth, prolonging the kiss and even going back for more. 

Her flirt signals with Curtis after finding out about the kiss are all about regaining control

Judi James

“When Luca picked her for a three-way kiss her teeth-baring suggested happy victory as she worked the kiss in front of Liv. 

“To finish the girl off she did a plank-off with Ekin-Su - leaving her main rival for star status lying helpless on the ground, while she performed a wriggling dance of victory after showing off her superior physical strength.”

Playing Curtis like a fiddle

Kaz hasn’t hidden her feelings for Curtis Pritchard in the villa.

But after he kissed Ekin-Su on the balcony, some may have thought that Kaz was put off.

And despite him being in a couple with Ekin-Su, she hasn’t ruled him out saying she “likes a challenge.” 

But this left viewers in uproar, as they blasted her for being snakey.

One wrote: "Kaz , shes not coming across very well. A little desperate , sly and sneaky.

"Kaz went for Ronnie coz she knew he wouldn’t say no as she that desperate to stay on the show."

Judi says: “When Ekin paired with Curtis the plotlines and camera time moved to them, but Kaz had other plans and has brilliantly won it back with her own self-spun dramas.

“Kaz performed set-pieces of open duplicity, but her amazing USP is her ability to still be likeable and to look like the most honest, free-spirited girl in the villa, with her wide smile, her body-bouncing behaviours and her guilt-free laugh.

“But her flirt signals with Curtis after finding out about the kiss are all about regaining control.

She then trotted off to Ronnie to discuss Elma, but then of course there was the high-drama kiss

Judi James

“Curtis wanted to re-brand as the good guy after the Amy incident and Kaz has the power to make him look guilty again. 

“She used it to signal power to Ekin-Su though, employing self-touch, eye-gazing and head closeness as well as verbal flattery on Curtis to get his body language suggesting he was compliant and smitten. 

“He fell back in fear when she told him she knew about the kiss but then she reeled him in via verbal and non-verbal ‘strokes’ until he was happily picking at and rubbing the neck of his water bottle.”

Picking off the low-hanging fruit

After chatting to Elma and dropping hints about being “very similar” to Ronnie, Kaz then went off to Ronnie to discuss his partner Elma - but this ended up with a kiss.

Judi says: “Kaz had a bland chat with Ronnie that ended with a distanced hug.

“She went back to Elma, holding her arm in an empathetic gesture to drop hints about being ‘very similar’ to Ronnie, coupled with a smug smile and a coy fiddling with her ear lobe. 

“However, she then trotted off to Ronnie to discuss Elma, but then of course there was the high-drama kiss at the end after a period of eye-flirting and encouragement signals. 

“The kiss also involved Ekin-Su, who has now been pushed in a massive role-reversal, out of her role as femme fatale in the villa to one of a woman who is watching the other girls’ backs and giving advice against the ‘free-wheeling’ Kaz.”
