L'Isola dei Famosi
L'Isola dei Famosi (pronounced [ li zola dei fa mo zi;ˈ ː ˈ ː
-o si]ː ; Italian for The Celebrity Island or The Island of the
Famous) is an Italian reality show which was first aired on Rai
Due in 2003, before moving to Canale 5 in 2015. The first eight
editions of the show, held between 2003 and 2012, were hosted
by Simona Ventura. After her departure to Sky Italia, with
whom she signed a two-year contract, the show underwent a
change in format. Starting from the ninth edition, the show
now has two hosts, Nicola Savino in studio and Vladimir
Luxuria on the island, both of whom were replaced in2015
by Alessia Marcuzzi in studio, and Alberto 'Alvin' Bonato on
the island.
The format is the Italian edition of the programme Celebrity

2. Survivor, created by Charlie Parsons. In February 2001 a
show with a similar format, called Survivor, was aired on Italia
1, hosted by Benedetta Corbi. That show did not have
celebrity competitors, and had disappointing viewership
(probably because it was not live and because of the rigid
division of the show into two parts: a montage of the week of
the castaways and the studio talk show).
On The Island of the Famous a group of celebrity competitors
(beginning with the fifth edition a non-celebrity competitor
was also added) must survive on a desert island with no
facilities by building shelter, procuring food and water, and
finding ways to maintain warmth. Candidates have a basic
survival kit which, through group efforts, can be enhanced
with new objects created.
Once a week there is a challenge winner, determined through
contests of skill, balance, strength, etc. The competitor who
wins the week’s challenge becomes immune from elimination
in the next episode.
A live "nomination" takes place on a weekly basis, whereby
competitors are gradually eliminated. The last remaining
contenders compete for the final prize during the season

3. finale.
The first three editions took place in the Dominican
Republic on the Samaná Peninsula. From fourth to sixth
season the show moved to Cayos Cochinos,Honduras. Due to
the coup in Honduras, however, the seventh edition of the
reality show was held in Corn Islands, Nicaragua only to
return to Honduras for the eighth season.
After some uncertainty at RAI about scheduling the show for
2011/2012 (due to the loss of Simona Ventura upon her
transfer to Sky), on September 15, 2011 the Board of RAI gave
the green light to the ninth edition of the program with the
dual hosts, Nicola Savino and Vladimir Luxuria.
