The second season of the American Spanish-language reality television series La casa de los famosos premiered on May 10, 2022, with a live move-in on Telemundo.[1][2] The show follows a group of celebrities living in a house together while being constantly filmed with no communication with the outside world as they compete to be the last competitor remaining to win the cash grand prize.[3]
The season concluded on August 8, 2022, after 91 days of competition with Ivonne Montero being crowned the winner, and Salvador Zerboni the runner-up.[6]
Format
The season follows 17 celebrities living in a house together with no communication with the outside world and are constantly filmed during their time in the house. During their stay the Housemates share their thoughts on events of the house inside a private room referred to as the Confesionario (Confession Room). Each week, the housemates compete in the Head of Household competition, with the winner being immune from eviction. Each housemate has three nomination points to give to two housemates, giving 2 points to one housemate and 1 point to the other. The housemates with the most nomination points are put up for eviction and the Head of Household must save one of the nominees. A change this season is that the four housemates with the most nomination points are put up for eviction, unlike the previous season where the top three were put up for eviction. The public at home is able to vote on which housemate to evict via the show's main website. Beginning the eighth week, the public had to vote on which housemate they wanted to stay in the house, with the least voted housemate being evicted. Each week the housemates are assigned tasks in order to win their allowance for food.
Twists
Spontaneous Nomination
During episode 6, the Spontaneous Nomination was introduced. The spontaneous nomination gives only one houseguest per week the advantage to give nomination points of 3 and 2 instead of the usual 2 and 1. The spontaneous nomination is open immediately after the eviction and closes before the regular nomination process. The spontaneous nomination phase concluded after week 6 nominations.
Housemates
The seventeen HouseGuests were announced throughout April and May 2022.[7][8]
Every week, each participant is called to nominate two of their housemates, with the exception of that week's Head of Household. The first person a housemate nominates is for 2 points, whilst the second nomination is for just 1 point. The three participants with highest points, are nominated for elimination and it is up to the public's vote through Telemundo.com who gets evicted that week.
