Kinsley Ivy

Kinsley's Season 6 promo.

Season 3

21st-22nd (Season 3)

**Kinsley Ivy** most recently competed on Season 6 of Love Desert. She was eliminated at the semi-final alongside romantic interest Amina.

She previously competed on Season 5 of Love Desert, eliminated on episode 2 as a couple with Sirius Felony in 14th-15th place.

She originally competed on the unrecorded Season 3 of Love Desert, eliminated on episode 2 as a couple with Waldemar Goncalves in 21st-22nd place.

Kinsley is known best for her edgy queer aesthetic, and being the leader of the House of Leibniz.

## Background

Kinsley was created by Jude, specifically to compete on Season 3 of Love Desert. She started her run on episode 1 as part of the original 12, getting eliminated on episode 2.

### On Season 3

Kinsley's run on Season 3 was unique in that she won the 2 mini-challenges and 1 judge vote that she competed for, before the vote in which she was eliminated. This can be attributed to her partner being Bella Vu until the second recoupling. Since she went from coupling up with one of the most popular contestants to one of the least popular contestants, and her episode 2 choice Waldemar Goncalves was truly hated, her poor taste caused her elimination.

### On Season 5

Since competing on Season 3, Kinsley developed her aesthetic further, and moved into Mt. Komorebi with fresh faces Yerin and Rhea to create the unofficial *House of Leibniz*. The 3 of them tried the casting special of Season 5, and while Rhea was unfortunately given the chop, Yerin and Kinsley made the cut, granting Kinsley a second chance at success on a much higher platform than before.

Between the casting special and the promo, Kinsley has altered her aesthetic slightly, going for a new hairstyle in her promo look.

### On Season 6

Following a generally unanimous agreement that the season was getting too straight, Kinsley and two other lesbian characters were invited to arrive as bombshells on episode 3. Kinsley arrived to the villa with a fresh set of tattoos and a purpose.

During said episode, Kinsley won the mini-challenge, earning a date with Amina Bish, whom she later won the judge vote with.

For the rest of the season until episode 7, Kinsley and Amina were occasionally critiqued on falling into the background, placing high at every vote but not having many notable moments. On episode 7, the semi-final, they were voted out. Kinsley and Amina are considered the strongest semi-finalist couple to be eliminated in the show's history.

## Runway Looks

Kinsley's aesthetic on Season 5 was unapologetically queer and purple. Her aesthetic on Season 6 evolved to become more punk and gothic. Her change of tattoos can be seen between seasons, as the looks are in chronological order:

## Trivia

* Kinsley is the first sim to compete with purple hair.
* She's the first and only sim to win her first voting round on two different seasons (3 & 6).
* She's the second sim to compete on 3 mainline seasons, after Howl.
	+ Howl and Kinsley have competed on two of the same seasons (3 & 5), but since he entered as a bombshell after her elimination on both occasions, the two have never competed against one another.
* Of those that have both won a vote and been eliminated, she is the only contestant to always either get 1st place or eliminated on a judge vote during a season (Season 3).
* She's one of the exclusive few contestants to have won both the mini-challenge and the judge vote in the same episode, the others being Seink and Chad on All-Stars, Luigi and Bella on Season 3, Anelle, Jessica and Cannie on Season 4.
	+ She repeated this feat upon her arrival to Season 6, winning the makeup mini-challenge then winning the judge vote on episode 3.
* She's the first non-bombshell Season 3 contestant to return to a mainline season.
	+ The other four Season 3 contestants that returned before her: Howl, Stella, Lorelei or Mariela, never competed alongside her on Season 3, due to her early elimination before any of the mentioned bombshells arrived (with the exception of Zack, who arrived the episode of her elimination).
* She's the third sim created by Jude to be brought back to compete on a mainline season a second time, after Stella and Lorelei from Season 4.
	+ She's the fourth if you count Zack, who was brought back from Season 2 to Season 3.

* Kinsley was eliminated during the second voting round on both Season 3 and Season 5.
	+ On Season 6, as of episode 5, she has survived more than two episodes, breaking this curse.
