Love Island All Stars viewers were amused as noughties boyband Blue made a surprise cameo on Tuesday night’s episode.
Simon Webbe, 47, Duncan James, 47, Antony Costa, 44, and Lee Ryan, 42, arrived to give the islanders a special performance of their biggest hits – but admitted that the songs might be too old for many of the cast to remember.
With most islanders in their twenties, fans commented on how AJ Bunker, 33, was the only one to know the lyrics.
As the band sang All Rise and One Love, they said: ‘I don’t know how old you are’, to which AJ replied: ‘I had your poster on my wall’.
The reality star later told the girls: ‘They have aged like a fine wine’.

Fans wrote on X: ‘The slow mo dancing and lip syncing the wrong lyric is killing me’;
‘Only AJ knows the lyrics’ and ‘I don’t know who Blue is but I’m vibing’;
‘Blue in 2026 is crazy, budget must be tight’ and ‘Were these islanders born when Blue was around’;
‘I can’t take this Blue performance seriously. But I’m over here bobbing my head’;
‘Some of these islanders are more famous than Blue’;
‘The only person who is singing the words to this song is AJ’.
The band jetted off to South Africa as part of their ongoing 25th anniversary celebrations to sing some of their best hits.
Blue formed in 2000 and were together until 2005. The band reformed in 2011 and have been releasing music ever since.
