‘Love Island’ Star Huda Mustafa Dropped by Huda Beauty After Laughing During Livestream Where Racial Slur Was Used

‘Love Island USA’ alum Huda Mustafa has been dropped by Huda Beauty after a controversial livestream in which she appeared to laugh when a viewer used a racial slur directed at another cast member, Olandria. ?

In a statement posted to Instagram, Huda Beauty said the incident “upset members of our team and community” and announced that the brand had officially ended its partnership with Mustafa. The company added that while it believes her actions didn’t reflect her true character, it stood by its commitment to accountability.

As previously reported, Mustafa later responded, saying she and her boyfriend “did not hear [the slur] very well” at the time and that her reaction was nervous laughter because she was “caught off guard.”

Huda Beauty said it hopes “something meaningful comes out of the situation” as the brand continues removing related content from its platforms.

What do you think — should brands immediately cut ties after moments like this, or give people room to explain?
