Island of the Famous 2024a sensational background story emerges on the reality show: “They only paid me 100 euros a day…” The indiscretion surprises fans.
The current edition of The Island of the famous did not receive the hoped-for consensus. The changes made to the castaway reality show, requested directly by Mediaset management, did not obtain public approval. After all Piersilvio Berlusconi has implemented an adaptation policy to various prime time programs and beyond, he asked for less trash and more content, but apparently reality shows like Big Brother And The Island of the famous they cannot be deprived of those characters considered colorful.
The Island suffered a drastic drop in ratings justified by a series of new features. Among these was the choice of castaways which seemed inadequate to many, some of whom left the reality show earlier than expected. In the past there had never been so many withdrawals and this jeopardized the success of the programme, usually the public becomes fond of the competitors and seeing them leave daytime was not pleasant. Today The Island of the Famous 2024 is approaching its conclusion in a low-key manner, also because further twists have emerged in recent days.
All eyes were on Matilde Brandi. The former dancer received criticism from fellow travelers who defined her as a strategist and insincere. Brandi herself invited the castaways to play the game of truth and Edoardo Franco and Alvina defined her as too composed, not very spontaneous and only interested in making a good impression and not falling into certain dynamics. The countess then invited Matilde to let herself go and show some sides of her character that she has kept hidden until now.
Island of the famous, Pietro Fanelli: “I wasn’t well known enough”
Also causing particular outcry are the recent statements by the former castaway Pietro Fanelli. The young man, considered among the most atypical competitors of the latest editions, left Honduras convinced that he had completed his personal mission. The poet then reported that his compensation for participating in the reality show was minimal, in his opinion he was underpaid:
“Being a “penniless” I thought I could get some money to live more dignified. Unfortunately, however, the expected financial compensation for my character it was miserable. Since I wasn’t already a well-known face, they only paid me 100 euros a day, therefore 700 a week.” Fanelli’s revelation was truly unexpected.
Recall that the former castaway also revealed that he had a heated discussion via chat with Tommaso Zorzi and in a completely natural way he made the contents of the conversations known: “He told me he was with his lawyer and that he would report me. But then she let me know that, if I hadn’t posted other material, he would not have made any complaint”
