'Love Island USA' breakout star Leah Kateb says she doesn’t even know why she got invited to play #ExpensiveTasteTest, but the humble Calabasas queen has us—and all of America—fangirling. From nailing the pricier smoothie (of course it’s Erewhon) to reluctantly deciding which overalls are cheaper (Rob's, maybe? ), Leah tries to figure out which items give more bang for their buck and which she might try to take home herself. Watch as Leah admits she can barely look at the 'Love Island' water bottles because they’re too triggering, raves about Serena pushing her plate of avocado toast onto Kordell, and reveals who the biggest partier from the villa is.

00:00Hi, I'm Lia Katev, and I'm playing
00:02Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
00:05Lessons I've learned from being in Love Island
00:10is however I think I'm gonna do,
00:11it ends up being the opposite.
00:13I don't even know why I got invited here,
00:15but we're here, so let's f***ing do it.
00:17Bring him out.
00:18I'm ready.
00:20♪♪
00:25I think this is the Kendall Jenner Erwan smoothie,
00:29but I will say I have not tried this one
00:33before ever in my life, so I could f*** this up bad.
00:36And this looks like it's from Jamba Juice.
00:38Okay, here we go.
00:44It's giving Jamba Juice, you guys.
00:46Not, no hate, no shade.
00:47I love Jamba.
00:51It's mango-y-ish peach.
00:54All of the above, not sure.
00:56Okay.
01:00This tastes good.
01:02If this is the Kendall Jenner one she popped off.
01:07I think this is more expensive.
01:08Are you kidding me? Look at this.
01:10Look at these two compared to each other.
01:12Do I even have to say words?
01:13This has the little coconut cream that Erwan does.
01:16I see coconut crisps on top.
01:19It's everything.
01:20This is good. I'm gonna save this.
01:22I'm gonna leave with this.
01:23♪♪
01:25Yeah! I knew it!
01:28I knew it!
01:29Okay, let's actually save this for me,
01:30because it's good.
01:31But I love Erwan.
01:32Shout out, Erwan.
01:33Super Calabasas of me, I know.
01:40We have water bottles in front of me.
01:42This one is a bit triggering-looking, but.
01:48This one looks like it would be more expensive
01:50if I could open it.
01:51I don't think I can.
01:54Oh, I'm giving it a handy.
01:55Okay.
01:58Hmm.
02:01I want to say this one's more expensive,
02:03but I feel like it's gonna be this one.
02:07I'm gonna say 10.
02:12Ooh.
02:13Hmm.
02:14I think this one might be more expensive.
02:17I do.
02:18Okay, final answer.
02:19I'm probably wrong,
02:20but I do think this one is.
02:25Okay.
02:26I'm f***ing up.
02:27I had one right.
02:28See, a humble queen, yeah.
02:29I know that's right.
02:31I do have my water bottle from the villa.
02:32My sister keeps saying we need to put it
02:34in one of those plexiglass things and frame it.
02:36And I'm like, every time I see it, I'm like, ugh.
02:39I have a bodily reaction.
02:41It's stuffed away in a corner.
02:42My mom put a towel over it.
02:51We have lip gloss, and it's tinted.
02:54And I don't like tinted lip gloss.
02:57So I'm dreading putting it on, but I will for you guys.
03:02Okay, based off of just the bottles,
03:06I want to say, you guys are foul.
03:08You want me to put on red lips gloss right now?
03:11Okay, from the bottle, I want to say
03:14that this is the more expensive one.
03:18Let me play around.
03:22I already know I'm gonna be wrong.
03:24Might as well just say the red.
03:26I do, I think it's the red.
03:28I think it's the red.
03:30It feels nice.
03:32Look at the way it just comes off.
03:33This one is like, okay, she's spreading.
03:35She's happy to be here.
03:37I don't know, I do think it's the red.
03:39I do.
03:43Finally, come back, let's go.
03:46Okay, to be honest, I thought this one
03:48was gonna be more like a lipstick-y type vibe,
03:51but it wasn't when I swatched it.
03:52I do like a tinted moment.
03:54I love like a dark brown tinted gloss, love that.
03:57I slept with it.
03:58It was always stuffed right here in my bathing suit.
04:01They would have to like pry that shit out my hand.
04:03We were like going back and forth with it.
04:05Like.
04:12I think we have something I like.
04:17Is this vodka?
04:17Nevermind, I don't like it anymore.
04:21I think we have vodka.
04:22Also though, disclaimer, I can't tell good alcohol
04:26from bad alcohol.
04:27Whatever is in front of me will get drank.
04:29I don't care if it's Hornitos or Clasé Azul.
04:32It's getting thrown back regardless.
04:42Hell, it tastes like hell.
04:43That's bad.
04:44My mouth's watering.
04:52Oh, that was even worse.
04:56Oh, it's burning.
04:57Solely because this is more disgusting and potent,
04:59I'm gonna say that's the more expensive one.
05:04Hey!
05:08Yeah, you know me.
05:09The cast and I went to Universal together.
05:12Kendall and I were just sitting by the bar,
05:14just like throwing shots back.
05:16We're sitting down drinking.
05:17We're just talking about everything.
05:19He's so funny though.
05:20He's still talking like he's in the villa.
05:22He's like, yeah, I'm thinking about pulling like,
05:23blah for a shot.
05:24And I'm like, you don't have mics on.
05:27Like, just be like, yeah, I wanna talk to that bitch.
05:29No, I'm just kidding.
05:36So you guys are not slick.
05:39Very funny, guys.
05:40From visual right now,
05:42this one looks like it wants to be the expensive one,
05:44but it's not actually.
05:46You know when you go to those fancy restaurants
05:48and they have like one leaf on the plate
05:50and it's like $100, that's what this is giving.
05:54And this one's giving like,
05:55you're gonna get a bang for your buck.
05:57The bread's not feeling, it's feeling a bit,
05:59she's not toasted.
06:01This one's doing a bit too much for me.
06:08It has balsamic vinaigrette.
06:10Yeah.
06:11This is good.
06:12This is good.
06:13I wanna keep this too.
06:16That sounded like I'm cutting into a brick.
06:21This is also not a good day to have one nail missing
06:24and I'm not flipping you off, but whoops.
06:26Napta.
06:27Okay, here we go.
06:28She's looking a bit brown as well.
06:31I do say so myself.
06:37No.
06:39This is the more expensive one.
06:41And if this is it, no, no.
06:43This was good.
06:45This is not.
06:48I don't believe that, but okay.
06:51No, I'm not sick of avocado toast.
06:52I like avocado toast.
06:53I just don't think we eat it as much
06:55as everyone thinks we do.
06:56Like, I swear you guys,
06:57like when Serena threw the plate at Cordell,
07:01I literally was just like this.
07:03Proud mom moment.
07:04That's my girl.
07:05Get that shit out of here.
07:06Love you though, Cordell, but get that shit out of here.
07:08And why the was Rob with you?
07:17Helmet for horseback riding.
07:21Very important.
07:22Let's always be safe when we are riding our horses.
07:23I don't care if you think you look stupid.
07:26This one looks a bit, I'm drunk from that one sip.
07:28No, I'm just kidding.
07:30This one looks familiar.
07:32I feel like just all based off of looking,
07:33like I have this helmet.
07:36I love this helmet.
07:42See, they both have insulation.
07:44This one has a thing.
07:45This one, a little visor moves.
07:47I do think I have this helmet,
07:48but my helmet's not that expensive.
07:51So I'm like, is she more expensive?
07:51But this is just calling my name to say it's more expensive.
07:55I'm not going to lie,
07:55even though I think this one might be more expensive,
07:58unfortunately.
08:02No, I think this one's more expensive.
08:05I do.
08:05Final answer.
08:08It's wrong.
08:09Really?
08:10This one feels like you're going to break your neck.
08:13I am a humble queen.
08:14I have the cheaper helmet.
08:16Look at me.
08:17My horse only has like two saddle pads as well.
08:19I love this helmet.
08:21I have three horses.
08:22I am so excited for Miguel to meet all my animals.
08:24I know he's excited to meet the pigs as well.
08:26He was saying he's never horseback rode before.
08:30So I'm really excited to show him.
08:32And I ride English and he's my little London boy.
08:35So we'll have fun.
08:42The ghost of Rob's past.
08:45Cosmo, I had a great day with you,
08:47but our journey has come to an end.
08:49No, I'm just kidding.
08:51Okay. Yeah.
08:52You guys are super foul, but overalls.
08:55Now, why is this for me?
08:57I'm not sure.
08:58I did touch Rob's overalls a lot, clearly.
09:02You didn't want me to?
09:03No, I'm just kidding.
09:04I think these are the exact overalls.
09:05You guys want to know a funny story?
09:06My sister and my best friend,
09:08when they were going to pick me up from the airport,
09:11they were going to wear overalls as a joke,
09:14but my parents said, don't do it.
09:18You don't know how she's going to react.
09:19She's probably traumatized.
09:21They said these were like $35 on Amazon.
09:24And just by touching them,
09:26I want to say this is the more expensive one.
09:29This fabric just feels a lot thicker.
09:31Plus it has like fleece on the inside.
09:34This one's just kind of like a thin little number.
09:37And I don't know.
09:40I do think this one, this one just feels very like sturdy.
09:44I think this is.
09:48Yeah.
09:51All right, get these away.
09:53Do I wake up and like want a man in overalls?
09:56Like not necessarily,
09:57but I also wasn't like some of the other people
09:59that were like, what the is he wearing?
10:01Like, it's just, it was very him.
10:03Like it was very like on brand.
10:11Vlog clips.
10:12I didn't know that everyone loved these
10:15until like yesterday, saying the Lia claw clip.
10:18Guys, come on, be for real.
10:21The claw clip was a savior
10:23because my hair was frizzing so bad in Fiji,
10:27no matter what I put in it,
10:29no matter what I did to it, nothing was helping it.
10:32So at that point I was like,
10:33these people, f*** it, whatever.
10:35Yeah, it's gonna look like I don't brush my hair.
10:37Like I would find like a random one on the floor
10:40and just take it and use it.
10:42This one feels a lot more sturdy.
10:44This one feels like I could just like snap it.
10:46It literally just feels like, I don't know,
10:49the way that it's moving feels very not smooth, I guess.
10:53This one like goes in and out so like easily, quickly.
10:57Can I have this?
10:59I like this one.
11:02Step it away.
11:04I think this is the more expensive one.
11:06I'm very proud of myself.
11:08I am still the Calabasas queen.
