Lately, several scandals on the famous reality TV have fallen. The former candidates leaked surprising secrets about the TV show . This is the example of Cindy, a participant in season 3 who revealed in an interview:
“Once, they made me sleep outside in a kind of campsite. I freaked out, I swallowed two boxes of Doliprane, no one cared. I don't think they took me seriously. They didn't believe me. So the next day I was stoned, I stayed all day in the trampoline, no one had the right to come and piss me off. »
Despite this, the producers of 'Secret Story' have confirmed his return. Were they influenced by the trend to remakes of old cult TV programs ?
That said, many believe in the culmination of this idea. Indeed, the current public consumes a lot of reality TV .
The rumors on the subject intensified when 'the Voice' of 'Secret Story' dropped an explosive message on Twitter . This one said:
“Here the Voice, to all Internet users: beware of appearances… That’s all for the moment! »
The new season of “Secret Story” could take place on Amazon Prime . It was Benjamin Castaldi who gave the information, this Friday, February 3, 2023 on the set of TPMP.
