La Granja VIP Premieres With Surprise Entrants, 24/7 Disney+ Feed and First Nominee

Adal Ramones set a tone of transparency with a pointed on‑air jab at Televisa’s rival show, as online reaction swung from memes to criticism.

Overview

  • TV Azteca launched the farm-based celebrity reality on Oct. 12 with 16 participants and a continuous live feed on Disney+, alongside weekly galas on Azteca Uno.
  • Lola Cortés, La Bea, Sergio Mayer Mori and Eleazar Gómez were revealed as surprise additions, and multiple outlets reported Fabiola Campomanes joined late; some reports also claim she replaced Wendolee.
  • Early game play put Alfredo Adame, Manola Díez, La Bea and César Doroteo (“Teo”) in the barn as peones, with Teo named the season’s first nominee.
  • Ramones told viewers there would be no shut-off cameras or production favorites, a comment widely read as a swipe at La Casa de los Famosos and a key promise of openness.
  • Social media lit up with memes, copycat claims and criticism over Eleazar Gómez’s inclusion given his 2020 assault case, while unconfirmed reports circulated that Lola Cortés negotiated roughly 500,000 pesos per week.
