We always knew #SerenaPage would shine during a blind date. We just didn't realize that we would *also* get the tea about her relationship with #KordellBeckham, learn about what it's like dating on Love Island, and her stance on looking through your partner's phone. In this episode of #BlindDate, Cosmo Editor-in-Chief Willa Bennett sits down with the Love Island: Beyond the Villa star for a flirty dinner full of surprise confessions and dating non-negotiables. From the one thing Kordell still doesn't know about her to her desire (or not) to be in a throuple to a truly show-stopping rendition of L.O.V.E., nothing's off-limits.

00:00I let him read my diary, like, journal diary, I know.
00:02What did he learn about you?
00:03It was basically a crash out journal.
00:05Like, once we were reading it,
00:06I was just cussing everybody out.
00:10My name is Willa Bennett, and this is Blind Date.
00:21All right, let's go.
00:23Do you call yourself a Cosmo girl?
00:27Okay, so you've been in Cosmo.
00:29What was your first impression of Cosmo?
00:31Love them down.
00:33I think I told you that, too.
00:35Would you go on a date with me?
00:36Of course.
00:38Oh, so you're single.
00:39Oh, no.
00:40No, you're not single.
00:42No, not at all.
00:43How did you meet your partner?
00:44On TV, and our first date was also on TV.
00:50What can you tell me about them?
00:52They.
00:53They.
00:54Mm-hmm.
00:56So you're queer.
00:57Um, no.
01:01I was trying not to give it away.
01:03Oh, so you're not queer.
01:05No, no, he's a man.
01:06Have I seen the TV show you're on?
01:08Yes.
01:08Do you think I like it?
01:09Like, am I the type of girl that, like, you would be like,
01:12she probably watches this so hard?
01:14Yes, 100%.
01:15Yes, 100%.
01:17OK, so it's Serena.
01:18Yeah.
01:19Yeah.
01:21I do watch Love Island, it's true.
01:24How are you?
01:24Good.
01:25How are you?
01:26I can't believe on a date with you, does Crudel know about this?
01:29No, not yet.
01:30Yeah.
01:31OK, wait, I'm literally so excited.
01:34Wait, cheers.
01:34I ordered us drinks.
01:35I hope that's OK.
01:36Yes.
01:39How has life been since your Cosmo shoot?
01:41Ooh.
01:43It's been amazing.
01:45Shout out to Cosmo.
01:46Literally my favorite shoot up to date.
01:48That shoot did ruin my weekend, but no worries.
01:51Because it got leaked?
01:52Yeah, your fans found it, and it was kind of a scandal, actually,
01:56at Cosmo HQ.
01:57I was like, how did they get it?
01:59No, I didn't even know how they got it.
02:00How did they get it?
02:01I have no clue.
02:03Because you didn't even have it.
02:04I did not have it.
02:05I found out from them.
02:06I was like, oh, this is cute.
02:08OK, so he knows that you're on a date with me.
02:10Yeah.
02:10What's dating on TV like?
02:12It's definitely very weird.
02:13So in the villa, there's no cameraman in your face.
02:18And then on dates, you can see people present with cameras.
02:21So it's like, ooh, people are really watching me.
02:24I don't forget people are watching me before,
02:26but people were really watching me then.
02:28How did it feel?
02:28Was it vulnerable?
02:29Yeah.
02:30Because certain parts of your relationship
02:32you don't want shared on TV.
02:35But at this point, American stars argue.
02:38They saw it off.
02:39Not at all.
02:40But.
02:43You know, I feel like such an important thing
02:45in relationships is when you hard launch.
02:46So you guys were hard launched from before.
02:49Day one.
02:50The world shipped us together for so long.
02:51Yeah, obviously, I shipped you.
02:52I was like, look no further.
02:55What like stood out about him to you
02:56that you were like, you're my person?
02:58We're like the same person.
03:00And I love me.
03:01I love that advice.
03:03But no, he's literally like my twin flame.
03:05Everything just was like, perfect.
03:10OK, so we're going to ask you some questions from Cosmo
03:13from 2017.
03:16And these are questions that Cosmopolitan says
03:19you should ask on a first date.
03:21So some will be fun.
03:22Some will be silly.
03:23Which movie are you very embarrassed to love?
03:26Ooh.
03:27I would say Home.
03:30That or like The Notebook.
03:31It's so cliche.
03:32But.
03:33Spicy.
03:34I ordered a spicy ragatoni.
03:35This is my jam.
03:37I had to ball out for you.
03:38What's an activity that you don't do enough?
03:41Mm.
03:42Roller skate.
03:43Roller skate.
03:44Are you good?
03:45Yeah, I've been skating since I was like five.
03:46Is there anything you genuinely suck at?
03:49Ooh.
03:50I would say singing.
03:51Can we hear?
03:52What do you want to hear?
03:53I want to hear a love song.
03:56OK.
03:59L is for the way you look at me.
04:05Oh, it's for the only one.
04:09I see.
04:12Oh.
04:13That was beautiful.
04:14What's something that Cordell doesn't know about you
04:16that I could know?
04:17He doesn't know this because he doesn't know anything
04:20about astrology.
04:22But my big three.
04:23Virgo, sun, Scorpio rising, Capricorn moon.
04:28Wow.
04:29How perfect that we're so compatible.
04:31Ooh, what's your big three?
04:32Libra, Libra, Libra.
04:35A triple Libra, period.
04:38After the show, what was the first date you guys went on?
04:40We actually went to the restaurant I used to work at
04:43because they had named a drink after me
04:45when I was on the show.
04:46So I was like, let's go try that.
04:48And was it crazy because you were like,
04:49I'm actually in love with this person
04:51and you missed all of the normal steps?
04:54Yeah, that must be so awesome.
04:55No, the catch up on the Lord took weeks.
04:57I think we're still going down the timeline of each other.
05:01Like one time, I let him read my diary.
05:03Like my old, like journal diary.
05:06What?
05:07I know, very.
05:08I would never.
05:09I know.
05:10What did he learn about you?
05:11It was basically a crash out journal.
05:12Like once we were reading it,
05:13I was just cussing everybody out.
05:14And then I was just literally cussing everybody out.
05:19Would you ever look through someone's phone
05:21that you're dating?
05:22Hell yeah.
05:23Wow.
05:23I think my ex, I had his whole like Instagram
05:27on my phone for like a year and a half
05:28and he never knew.
05:29And I would tell him.
05:30You ever done?
05:31Guys are so stupid.
05:33Every time I would find something
05:35in like the Instagram or whatever,
05:36I would tell him that I had a dream about it.
05:38And this was like every other day.
05:40And he fully believed,
05:41like I ended up seeing in his DMs
05:43that he would tell his friends like,
05:44I think she's psychic.
05:45Like she's dreaming.
05:46Fool, I have your Instagram.
05:48It wasn't until we broke up that he caught on.
05:50I never told him because I'm like,
05:51Oh, you're dumb.
05:53Oh, now I have questions that were prepared for me
05:56that I haven't seen before.
05:57So if there's anything problematic,
05:59you can't hold me accountable.
06:03Do you like tiramisu?
06:05I don't think I've tried it before.
06:06Okay, then you go first.
06:07Okay.
06:08Is it like chocolatey?
06:10It's basically perfect.
06:12I don't know how else to say it.
06:14Mmm.
06:15I was hoping you'd like it.
06:17What's a non-negotiable for you in a relationship?
06:19Dating someone who struggles like really bad
06:22at this age with like communicating,
06:25I don't think the relationship would work out.
06:26So I think that's where I would be like,
06:27uh, no.
06:28Would you ever date someone your friend
06:30has previously hooked up with?
06:32Hell no.
06:32I don't want to be like coochie cousins
06:34with my friend or something.
06:36Would you say you're a girl's girl?
06:38I'm 100% a girl's girl.
06:39Yeah.
06:40When you're in the wrong in a conflict in general,
06:43like are you someone that's like,
06:44I'm so sorry, or do you get defensive?
06:46This is hard because I'm like rarely ever wrong.
06:49What's the craziest excuse you've used
06:53to end things in a relationship?
06:55So I've never like broken up with someone before.
06:57Wow, really?
06:58Yeah, that I do struggle with.
07:00It's a lot easier when they end it,
07:02but like when you try to end things with a man,
07:04like they be coming back.
07:05They be like, are you sure?
07:06And it's like, I don't want to do it anymore.
07:07So like you break up with me.
07:09So like, you know, y'all have a conversation.
07:11You're just like, well, like,
07:13don't you like want to break up with me?
07:14If someone said to me, don't you want to break up with me?
07:19I'd be like, bye.
07:21I mean, that's kind of low-key how like my last relationship
07:23I did.
07:24He was kind of like, uh, yeah, I guess.
07:26And I was like, okay.
07:28Okay. Would you ever be in a throuple?
07:29I actually want to know this.
07:30Oh, hell no.
07:32I don't like to share this.
07:33What's your advice for someone who's falling in love
07:35for the first time?
07:36I would say buckle up and I hope it lasts forever
07:41because heartbreak is a...
