Love Island: All Stars fans were left cringing over Curtis Pritchard’s attempts to flirt with Kaz Crossley.
The ITV2 dating show returned to screens on Monday night, with twelve former Islanders entering the villa for another try at love.
And as the islanders carefully considered their options, it was Curtis who was the first of the boys to make a move, with the dancer approaching the beauty, 29, as he pulled her along for a chat.
Working his magic, 28-year-old Curtis hit the stunner with his best lyrics, calling her ‘red hot’ and ‘fire’ before promising he would ‘give her rhythm’ on the dance floor.
But while Kaz seemed receptive to Curtis’ charms, viewers at home weren’t so accommodating, calling out his flirting skills, with one harsh critic even calling it ‘painful’.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, Love Island fans were quick to make their feelings clear.

It was Curtis who was the first of the boys to make a move, with the dancer approaching the beauty, 29, as he pulled her along for a chat.
Using his magic, Curtis, 28, hit the stunner with his best lyrics, calling her ‘red hot’ and ‘fire’ before promising he would ‘give her rhythm’ on the dance floor
They wrote: ‘I swear Curtis keeps coming on these reality shows to prove he doesn’t cringe, he fails every time
‘Curtis is cringing so much, why is he back on my screen man’; ‘Gosh Curtis’ flirting is terrible’
‘I forgot how painful it is to see Curtis try to flirt’
“Curtis is so fit that until he opens his mouth he cringes so much.”
“Go on Curtis, make the first move. Too bad he still cringes so much.”
“Curtis makes me cringe so much.”
Curtis brought Kaz to the sunbeds for their first chat and told her: ‘You look beautiful darling, you look red hot! You look sick.
When Kaz noted she was wearing pink to match the villa’s decor, Curtis amped up the charm by adding: “You look absolutely fire, you look amazing.”
But while Kaz seemed receptive to Curtis’ charms, viewers at home weren’t so accommodating, calling out his flirting skills, with one harsh critic even calling it ‘painful’.

The former Hollyoaks actor then questioned Kaz’s intentions, asking: ‘What do you feel, what do you think? Where are your thoughts?’
While the stunner confirmed she’s open to “talking to anyone,” Curtis confessed she made him “nervous.”
Revealing what she thought of him, Kaz explained: “I think you’re very masculine and I like the energy.”
The professional dancer then responded that he was thinking about dancing with her, with Kaz protesting that she couldn’t dance and “had no rhythm.”
Undaunted, Curtis then exclaimed, “Girl, I’ll give you rhythm!” I’ll find the rhythm somewhere in you…or later.’
Luckily for Curtis, viewers later voted for them to be a couple, meaning his flirtation with Kaz could continue.
