But who are the 10 singles hoping to find their perfect match? As the show kicks off on BBC iPlayer, here’s everything you need to know about the cast of I Kissed a Girl.

Job: Make-up artist and hair stylist

Funny and flamboyant, Amy has been single for three years and is beginning to feel like she has been “left on the shelf”. A hopeless romantic, Amy wants to find a “princess” in the Masseria that she hopes she can take home and live happily ever after with.
Amy had feelings about her sexuality at 13 years old, but didn’t find the confidence to come out to her family until she was 21.

Demi lives with her family in Hemel Hempstead and coming out had its challenges. The 23-year-old is very close with her mother but her father is very traditional and she says he found it difficult to accept.

“I’m very proud to be a part of the show, especially the first season for the girls,” Fiorenza said. “It should have existed years ago. We need more representation for lesbian relationships.”
