Love Island’s Indiyah gets new A-list superfan – but it’s too late to help her win the show
LOVE Island's Indiyah Polack has a very famous fan, but her support has come a little too late.
The London waitress came third in the ITV2 dating contest alongside her partner Dami Hope on Monday's finale.
They might have ranked higher if their celebrity fan had spoken up a bit sooner.
It turns out Good As Hell singer, Lizzo, was mad for Indiyah, 23.
The singer, 34, tweeted her support for Indiyah earlier this morning, but the finale had already aired.
Lizzo had been recommended Love Island to watch as she tried to get to sleep, but like most of us, got hooked instantly.
She tweeted: "Y’all I put on #LoveIsland to fall asleep and now I’m hooked… Indiyah the baddest in the villa no kizzy."
Indiyah's fans loved the shoutout from the Grammy award winning artist and encouraged Lizzo to follow Indiyah on all of her social media platforms.

Speaking about before joining the ITV show, Indiyah said: "I feel like I’m at a stage in my life now where I’m ready to meet new people and start dating properly.
"I have been single for some time and I feel like for my generation of people, it’s quite hard to date without being influenced by social media and stuff like that.
"Love Island particularly is like a closed space and I think it is a great place to get to know someone one-on-one and build a real connection."
Asked what she will bring to the villa, the stunner - who says her dating history is "random" - explained: "I feel like I’m going to bring a lot of flavour and vibrancy.
"I feel like I’m quite a down to earth person, so it shouldn’t be an issue to meet a lover or a friend."
Her and Dami started their Love Island journey off as friends before their respective partners, Amber Beckford and Ikenna Ekwonna, got sent home.
It wasn't long after that Indiyah and Dami became an item and things were going well.
However, both of their heads turned while they were in Casa Amor, which led to an awkward re-coupling.

Both were slightly stubborn towards revealing how they actually felt towards one another, but it wasn't long until all the drama was put behind them.
The pair made their relationship official during their final date, and their fellow islanders all agreed that they were the most "compatible" in the villa.
