Love Island USA Star Daia Mcghee Slams Rumors of Using Kordell Beckham to Get Close to Brother Odell Beckham Jr.
Love Island USA star Daia McGhee addresses rumors about using Kordell Beckham to get close to NFL star Odell Beckham Jr.
In a recent interview, Love Island USA contestant Daia McGhee strongly refuted claims that she used her connection with Kordell Beckham to get closer to his famous brother, NFL star Odell Beckham Jr.
The 27-year-old social media influencer spoke out against the swirling rumors, emphasizing the illogical nature of such accusations.
Daia McGhee setting the record straight
McGhee, who participated in the sixth season of the popular reality show, addressed the speculation during an exclusive interview with Page Six's Virtual Reali-Tea podcast.
McGhee expressed her frustration with the rumors, stating, "If people literally looked at logic just for, like, two seconds here, do you really think I was going to make out and allegedly dry-hump Kordell to then turn around and be like at the Thanksgiving dinner when I'm sitting around with his family like, 'Hey, OBJ, you wanna go in the room?'"
The controversy stemmed from McGhee's connection with Kordell Beckham, 22, during the show's infamous Casa Amor episodes.
This segment of the show tests existing couples by separating them and introducing new contestants. McGhee and Beckham's physical chemistry was evident, leading to Kordell bringing her back to the main villa.
McGhee also addressed claims about her previous interactions with Odell Beckham Jr. on social media. She explained that any past engagement with the NFL player's posts was likely related to a dinner her ex-boyfriend had with Beckham Jr.
"I'm sure the only [photo] that I ever would have liked or commented with your brother in it was, like, my ex went to dinner with him," McGhee recalled saying. "And I don't think your brother posted it, I think my ex posted it and maybe I commented."
The reality star expressed disappointment over a supposedly doctored image showing her account posting heart-eyes emojis on one of Odell's photos.
McGhee pointed out discrepancies in the image, saying, "There's, like, hearts on the side where you can like the comments and my comment, it's like a half-heart. Like, it's very clearly Photoshopped."
McGhee, who identifies as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, made it clear that athletes are not her type.
She emphatically stated, "I didn't have a mastermind plan to take [Kordell's] brother. That would never happen." Instead, she revealed her celebrity crush to be musician Kehlani.
