Ekin-Su Culculoglu has recreated her iconic Love Island crawl scene alongside Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi.
The duo are currently appearing on a Big Brother-style Netflix show called Inside alongside a mix of US celebrities.
In one episode, Ekin-Su, 31, referred to herself as the ‘queen of crawl’ before being seen crawling to eavesdrop on the boys’ conversation.
There has been a clear divide between the boys and girls in the Inside house just days into the show beginning.
Fans will remember Ekin crawling onto the Love Island villa terrace to have a sneaky snog with Jay Younger behind Davide Sanclimenti’s back.
She previously did the crawl during her racy Dancing On Ice Toxic routine, which received 112 Ofcom complaints.

It was revealed that Ekin-Su had signed up to a huge US show after admitting she hit ‘rock bottom’ following her stint on Celebrity Big Brother.
The reality star was evicted fourth from the ITV series in March 2024, after fellow housemates accused her of being fake and playing up for the cameras.
Earlier this year, Ekin-Su opened up about the difficult aftermath during an appearance on Jamie Laing’s Great Company podcast.
The star revealed she received death threats after the show aired, describing it as the ‘wrong show at the wrong time.’
The backlash took a toll on her mental health, leading her to spend hours crying on the floor before seeking help from a therapist.
Now, Ekin-Su is ready for a fresh start as she has become one of the cast members for Inside: USA.
The reality show, which landed on Netflix on September 21, is based on a hit format created by UK YouTube group the Sidemen.
The show brings together internet personalities to live under one roof, where they’re constantly filmed and pushed to their limits through a series of challenges for a shared cash prize.

While the setup echoes Celebrity Big Brother – with its confined living space and 24/7 surveillance – Inside: USA introduces a competitive edge.
Contestants must work together to complete tasks and protect their prize fund, with even basic necessities coming at a cost.
Ekin-Su will be sharing the house with a mix of US celebrities, including Selling Sunset star Breana ‘Bre’ Tiesi, along with popular streamers and YouTubers such as Sketch, Jay Cinco, Sydney Thomas, and Max Fosh.
Elsewhere, Ekin-Su revealed she is quitting reality TV and making a pivot back to serious acting.
The Love Island winner starred in a Turkish TV series and soap opera before rising to fame on the ITV dating show in 2022.
And now she seems keen to get back to her roots by making a return to scripted acting – and she even has her sights set on breaking America.
Speaking to The Sun, Ekin revealed she is moving away from reality TV as she said: ‘I’m just keeping everything hush right now, everyone’s onto me, but yeah, it’s good.

Shedding light on the tough period of her like, Ekin-Su told how her road to rock bottom started with her split from her Love Island ex Davide Sanclimenti
‘I’m not against reality, it’s where I came from, but I think it’s good to go back to my roots now with more scripted stuff.’
Ekin-Su went on to say that she has upcoming plans to spend a month in America and dreams of making it big in Hollywood.
‘[Cracking America] is always everyone’s dream to make it in Hollywood, but we know in reality, it’s not easy.’
‘One day… manifestation… it’s true,’ she added.
Daily Mail has contacted Ekin-Su’s representatives for comment.
