Love Island USA‘s snake handler, Rob Rausch, isn’t opposed to handling Ariana Madix in the hideaway. During an interview on the Call Her Daddy podcast, host Alex Cooper asked the most-coupled boy from Fiji the question on many fans’ minds …
A trip to the hideaway:
Alex asked the overalls enthusiast, “If you could go into the the Hideaway with one person from the season … right now … who would it be?” True to form, Rob acted coy. “That’s nuts, nutty.” The TikTok prankster got serious quick when he finally gave an answer.
“Ariana!” Giggling, he tried to divert the conversation. “Anyways. Next question.”
Rob couldn’t stop gushing over the record-breaking LI USA host. “She looked so good.” He added, Ariana “was always wearing see-through clothes. I was like, ‘What’s up with her not really wearing clothes half the time.'”
Rob admitted that “once” he mistook Ariana as a new bombshell. “I thought she was an Islander because she was sitting there with the [cast].” So, “I went around and shook everyone’s hand. I was like, ‘Nice to meet you. I’m Rob.’ Then, I was like, ‘Oh my god. You’re the host.’ It was really embarrassing.”

Team Ariana:
Rob wasn’t the only Islander who became a fan of Ariana this summer. The Islanders came together to make a video for Ariana celebrating her season as host. As Vanderpump Rules fans know, this is a stark contrast to how Ariana’s ‘friends’/fellow cast members from Bravo TV treated her in the aftermath of Scandoval.
Islanders took to the confessional room to share love for the reality tv turned Broadway bound beauty.

While the Islanders showed love for Ariana, her former bestie, Scheana Shay, low-key admitted she didn’t watch the show. In the same breath, she noted she’d like to see “girl power” at the forefront of Pump Rules’s 12th season, if one is ordered.
