A hot new bombshell has entered the villa.
After being announced as the new host of “Love Island USA,” Ariana Madix, 38, made her debut — and a major style statement — on Peacock’s reality dating show Tuesday night.
The “Vanderpump Rules” star appeared onscreen rocking a body-hugging metallic gown from Di Petsa, a celeb-approved brand that’s known for its wet-looking designs.
The piece included a plunging neckline with a cutout in the middle, and featured a handful of beaded details and a pendant that hung by her bellybutton.
Madix and her stylist, Emily Men, clearly chose to lean into the mermaid vibes for the show’s Season 6 premiere, adding coordinating gold heels from Alexandre Birman and sparkling jewels from Simon G. and Gemma Azzuro.
The reality star kept the theme going with her glam, opting for bronzed makeup and beach waves.
Taking to Instagram, Madix shared a photo of her outfit and shouted out previous “Love Island” hosts, which includes actress Sarah Hyland, who held the gig before her.
“to follow in the slo-mo footsteps of such iconic women to host my favorite show is beyond an honor,” Madix captioned the post. “thank you for welcoming me to the love island family! @loveislandusa season 6 premieres NOW on @peacock!!”
Fellow “Vanderpump Rules” cast members and alums showed support for their pal, with James Kennedy writing “HERE WE GOOOOO!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩 @loveisland @peacock 👏” while Kristen Doute joked “i wanna be on you. i mean, hi gorgeous 💛💫✨”
“A Golden Goddess! 💫” commented Scheana Shay, who is currently on rocky terms with Madix after the Season 11 reunion, to which the latter responded “good as gold vibes!” referencing the former’s song.
It’s likely the fashion hits will keep coming all season long, especially given Madix’s style history.
The “Chicago” star famously went viral with her red, cutout revenge dress from the “Pump Rules” Season 10 reunion and, since then, has sported plenty of breathtaking looks, from sheer styles to pink lace designs.
New episodes of “Love Island USA” will drop on 9 p.m. ET on Peacock every day this week and, afterward, will follow a Thursday through Tuesday schedule until the finale.
