Love Island star Iain Stirling reveals he records his voiceover NAKED and admits why he’ll never be seen on screen
LOVE Island narrator Iain Stirling has revealed he records his voiceover for the show naked.
The Scottish comedian also said fans will never see him appear on the programme, which is presented by his wife Laura Whitmore, in the flesh.
Speaking to the , he said: "It's not my gig, man.
"I'm just in the vibes, I don't need to be in the front.
"It makes my life easier because I don't have to do hair, make-up, and stuff. I don't have to put clothes on. I'm just naked in a cabin. Lockdown vibes."
Iain's quick wit and acerbic observations have proved a successful formula, with other reality shows now borrowing heavily from his narration style.

Gemma has insisted she doesn't want to be known as "Michael's daughter" as she shows off her talents in the villa.

Football legend Michael isn't doing cartwheels about his daughter joining the latest series of the reality show.
She told "I still wouldn't say that my dad is buzzing about me doing Love Island.
"He's very supportive in whatever I decide to do. He didn't have a massive tantrum or anything like that. He was pretty chilled, he trusts me not to do anything to embarrass him. He took it quite well."
