Alexa has nothing on LANA, who has the daunting task of keeping all these horny hot people from hooking up with each other and costing everyone money. It’s very much a losing battle.
But alas, get your look at the all-new season with this crazy batch of conventionally pretty people on a yacht trying not to do some forbidden dances with one another!
