Love Island USA alum Mackenzie Dipman will shake things up on Season 4 as she prepares to enter the villa for a second time.
Mackenzie will make history as the first-ever former islander to return to the show.
Season 2 featured Mackenzie, and she spent most of her time fretting over her relationship with Connor Trott. They coupled up early in the season but endured several ups and downs inside the villa.
Although they left the villa separately, Connor and Mackenzie rekindled their romance, dating for months after the reality TV show ended.
Over a year after their split, Mackenzie remains single and ready to mingle with the hunky Season 4 islander men.
The blonde beauty will have a huge advantage over the current islanders in the villa. Mackenzie has done this before, and this time around,...

"There's one more thing... you can talk to animals." Viva Pictures has debuted a new full-length official Us trailer for an animated film titled The Son of Bigfoot, produced by StudioCanal in France, and animated by nWave Pictures in Belgium. The film is aimed towards younger kids and families, and is about a boy who goes "on an epic and daring quest to uncover the mystery behind his long-lost dad, only to find out that he is none other than the legendary Bigfoot." Surprise! Don't confuse this with the other animated bigfoot movie coming out this year - Smallfoot - which is made by Warner Bros. The voice cast for Son of Bigfoot includes Cinda Adams, Mari Devon, and Kirk Thornton. This really looks really bad, and I always wonder how animation this awful still gets made, because it seems like no one even tried to make a good movie.
