The official countdown has begun, reality TV fans! Love Island is making its highly anticipated return on June 1, meaning it is time to clear out your 9 PM schedules.

While the full line-up has fans buzzing, all eyes are currently on Mica Harris, who has just been unveiled as the absolute youngest contestant entering the villa this summer.

At just 21 years old, the stunning student is originally from Barbados but currently resides in London. While stepping into the high-pressure environment of the villa can intimidate younger islanders, Mica Harris is making it very clear that she is ready to dive straight into the deep end—drama included.

"Obviously the whole point is finding love and that’s going to be my main goal," Mica Harris revealed ahead of her debut. "I’m not saying I’m going to start drama but if there is drama going on, I would obviously be a little bit nosey and want to know what’s going on."

When it comes to her strategy for turning heads and turning the boys' heads, Mica plans to keep things balanced but competitive. While she intends to be "as respectful as possible" to her fellow islanders, she isn't planning to hold back if she locks eyes with a guy she likes.

Still, her strategy relies heavily on maintaining a solid sisterhood with the other women. "It's super important that I get along with the girls there," Mica added.

So, what exactly is her ultimate "type on paper"? Mica Harris is strictly on the hunt for a tall guy—specifically noting that she gets major bonus points if a guy is built big enough to make her feel slightly small beside him. However, anyone trying to play games with her will get left behind quickly.

"If I have my eyes set on someone, obviously I'm going to pursue them," Mica warned. "But if they're not reciprocating that, then I'm going to take a step back, have a think, and change directions."
