Love Island fans left incredulous after Siânnise likens partner Nas to Aladdin... and claim they're phoning Ofcom after 'racist' joke
Love Island fans have been left outraged after the only Asian contestant was likened to Aladdin during Sunday night's launch show.
Siânnise Fudge was paired up with Nas Majeed when no one chose to step forward for him, citing 'I'm not too sure about the shorts' as her excuse when she was quizzed why she didn't fancy him.
Trying to make a joke out of the situation, the Disney fan piped up that Nas 'looked like Aladdin' - despite bearing no resemblance to the animated character.

Nas, 23, described himself as 'funny, always myself, caring and considerate'' in his VT, yet failed to impress the ladies with his entrance.
After he picked Siânnise, the Bristolian beauty declared: 'He’s lovely. I love Princess Jasmine and he looks a bit like Aladdin.'
Her partner took it well, enthusing, 'Don't even do that to me! I'm actually gassed now'.
Twitter was awash with incredulous fan reaction as viewers were left in disbelief by her 'racist' comparison.

One fan joked, 'LOOOOOOL did she just compare Nas to Aladdin? Surely ITV has HR #LoveIsland#, while another posted, 'Turned on #Loveisland to see the one Asian already be referred to as Aladdin'.
Another shared, 'she keeps calling him Aladdin and it’s so so racist lmfaooooo. when did Aladdin ever have a beard? he’s just asian, not even fully?!????'.
'How she calling him Aladdin on national television? Nah I’m calling OFCOM #loveisland', one posted alongside a meme of someone shouting 'Ofcom'.
During a conversation with posh boy Ollie, Siânnise admitted she didn't fancy her partner Nas, who she repeatedly said 'wasn't her type'.
'I'm calling Ofcom!': Viewers were quick to express their disappointment at her comment
Discussing her feelings about her couple, she said: '[Nas is] lovely... but I don't think I fancy him.'
Quizzed further about what kind of guys she goes for, Siânnise said: 'I like tall, dark and handsome. I like dark skin...'
However, there is one criteria Nas isn't fulfilling her, as she said: '[The height] is bothering me a little bit.'
Continuing with her Disney comparisons, Siânnise likened Ollie to another animated character, saying, 'I feel like you look like John Smith from Pocahontas'.
