This emblematic reality show has reopened its casting the candidates

A new season of this cult reality show has been confirmed. The applications to participate in the game are already open and the pills are known.

Only a year after having resurrected the famous program, the TF1 channel has just formalized the arrival of a new edition of Secret Story. Launched in 2007 on the front page, the show was a great audience success for 11 seasons, with a vague scent of scandal, before stopping in 2017. But the game of secrets made its comeback last year to the delight of fans.

Building on this success, the first channel has just announced in a press release the renewal of the program for 2025: “After having conquered viewers when it comes back to 2024 after 7 years of absence, ‘Secret Story‘, produced by Endemol France and presented by Christophe Beaugrand, returns in 2025 for a new season on the antennas of the TF1 group, “said the document.

No big changes to wait on the side of the concept, even if the production already promises “new unexpected secret missions” to spice up the game. The main unknowns remain for the moment the launch date of this new season and the broadcasting chain (TF1, TFX or TMC?).

On the other hand, if you dream of integrating the program, it’s time to try your luck since the cast is already open. To be part of the adventure, you must fill out a Online form. “Do you have an extraordinary secret? Are you ready to do anything to defend it and hide it at all costs? Are you determined to surprise the voice with a surprising secret?” Questions the page in the introduction, before requesting information about your profile, to answer a few questions, in particular on your secret, and to offer a video.

Better to have solid nerves to then hold the pace. Because if celebrity can be there, it will go through omnipresent cameras and repeated clashes in the famous “House of Secrets”. The jurisprudence having established between 2005 and 2009 that the reality TV candidates actually achieved “a work service” and should in return perceive a remuneration, the cachet given to the candidates of Secret Story Go from 500 euros per week to the house at 350 euros excluding house, much more than a minimum wage.

But the sum is deemed insufficient by some. Morgan Ouatta, former participant in season 5, had marked the spirits last year by revealing in Télé Loisirs having pocketed “between 8,000 and 10,000 euros” for four weeks in Secret Storyconcluding that “it’s not worth them in the end”. And to recall that TF1 is largely winner, with a program seen by “3 million viewers every Friday, and 2 million every day, not to mention the replays”. To the candidates of the new season to weigh the pros and cons before getting started.
