The reality series La Casa de los Famosos México began its 2026 season by opening a public voting phase after the first nomination round, allowing viewers to vote to save contestants. The initial nominees were Yanet García, Mariana Ochoa, Arantza Ruiz, Ximena Herrera, Luis Chaparro and Memo Schutz, with voting available via the show’s website and a QR code. During the second week, the show incorporated AI-driven predictions for the upcoming nomination round. Google’s Gemini model forecasted a new set of nominees—Yanet García, Luis Chaparro, Memo Schutz, Ese Pérez and Brianda Deyanara—while suggesting that Aldo Rendón would retain his leadership role and that either Chaparro or Deyanara might be saved. Tensions rose as former contestant Mariana Ochoa, who was eliminated after refusing to leave the carousel, publicly accused Aldo Rendón of personal dislike. Ochoa cited a conflict involving a request for hair styling for a Latin Grammy submission and noted Rendón's previous negative remarks about her. As the nomination process continued, the list for the second elimination gala was updated. Following subsequent challenges, Moisés Peñaloza secured the salvation benefit by defeating Masad Altamimi and Memo Schutz. Peñaloza used his power to remove Gema Garoa from the nomination list, leaving Ximena Herrera, Masad Altamimi, Memo Schutz, and Ernesto Laguardia facing the public vote. Additionally, the house is experiencing food shortages after failing a weekly challenge, resulting in a half-budget food supply that has sparked disputes between contestants Yahir and Cynthia Klitbo regarding resource management. In a significant turn of events, Fede Vigevani concluded a 17-day undercover mission, fulfilling a promise to gift a Leapmotor B10 vehicle to Karina Torres before his departure. Mariana Ochoa, the first contestant eliminated, has officially rejoined the competition after receiving over five million votes during the ‘Exile’ phase. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-11: Mariana Ochoa returns to La Casa de los Famosos México Mariana Ochoa has returned to La Casa de los Famosos México after a public vote, while undercover participant Fede Vigevani has departed the competition. 11 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/mariana-ochoa-returns-to-la-casa-de-los-famosos-mxico ### 2026-08-08: Moisés Peñaloza wins salvation in La Casa de los Famosos México Moisés Peñaloza won the salvation challenge in La Casa de los Famosos México, saving Gema Garoa and leaving four contestants nominated for elimination amidst rising tensions over food budget cuts. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/la-casa-de-los-famosos-mxico-nomination-list-updated ### 2026-08-05: La Casa de los Famosos México: AI predicts week‑2 nominations amid contestant tensions AI Gemini forecasts week‑2 nominees for La Casa de los Famosos México, while eliminated star Mariana Ochoa calls fellow contestant Aldo Rendón “puro pico,” underscoring rising tensions. 4 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/la-casa-de-los-famosos-mxico-ai-predicts-week2-nominations-amid-contestant-tensions ### 2026-07-30: La Casa de los Famosos México opens public voting to save contestants La Casa de los Famosos México opens voting after the first nominations, letting viewers save contestants like Yanet García and Mariana Ochoa.
