PACIFIC HARBOUR, FIJI: Fans were excited knowing that 'Love Island USA' Season 5 Episode 18 will have an elimination round. However, the same did not happen. And, it left fans furious seeing that there has not been an elimination since a long time. However, what shocked everyone the most was Carsten 'Bergie' Bergersen being saved once again.
There has been a lot of rumors about 'Love Island USA' Season 5's producers favoring Bergie. But, are they really? Fans wonder who is voting for Bergie as he is the only one in the villa who viewers believe is not meant for 'Love Island USA.' Moreover, he hasn't yet found anyone who he can connect with romantically.
Why was there no elimination in 'Love Island USA' Season 5?
Peacock has been teasing us since the last episode that the voting for the cast members have started. This directly meant that the only with the least vote will get ruled out of the house. However, ahead of the elimination in Sudnay's episode, Bergie wishes that it would have been better if no one had to be eliminated from the villa. And, no one was actually eliminated. Well, this might have been a good news for the cast members but not much of a good news for the viewers.
After the episode ended with no elimination, a fan wrote, "If the Bachelor/Bachelorette can prioritize ending an episode w/ a rose ceremony, it should be a cardinal rule to end eps of #LoveIslandUSA w/ an elimination. I can’t wait 23 hours to find out who goes home." Another tweeted, "Bergie safe again?! Damn. No elimination in this episode? And Casa Amor already?!! Huh. This is way too much." Another wrote, "i hope there’s a elimination today #LoveIslandUSA bc i’m really tired of seeing the same people i’m not going to lie."
'Who is still voting for Bergie'?
Seeing Bergie constantly get saved in the show despite having made a romantic connection with anyone in the villa ever since the start made fans furious. One tweeted, "#LoveIslandUSA I’m honestly going to stop voting because it’s clear the producers pick. Why is Bergie still here? When will this sob story and allowing him to stay end?" Another asked, "WHY ARE Y’ALL VOTING FOR BERGIE FOREAL The sob story/pity moment was cute for the first two episodes. It’s done." Furthermore, a fan slammed the show, "Smh I have so many questions. Like who tf is voting for and keeping bergie around!? Who does he know in production? likeeee he hasn’t been in a real couple yet. He’s just there." Another asked, "Who is still voting for Bergie!?" Another questioned, "America what was y’all on with the voting?? Bergie and Marco y’all favorites REALLY???"
