"Protagonistas de la Fama," also known as "Protagonistas de la Fama VIP" is a
Spanish language reality television series airing inTelemundo ,Puerto Rico . It is based on the "Protagonistas..." franchise, akin to previous shows "Protagonistas de la Musica " and "Protagonistas de Novela ". In this show, contestants compete for leading roles on a Telemundo telenovela.On the show, a group of well-known Latin celebrities live in an isolated studio/house where they are filmed 24 hours a day. Each week, the contestants receive training and later compete in an acting challenge in front of a panel of judges. The judges nominate the person deemed to have performed the worst in the challenge ("amenazado por talento"), and the housemates nominate an additional contestant of the same gender ("amenazado por convivencia"). The television viewers then decide which contestant will be evicted by calling in their support. The show was televised each weekday for several months, with eliminations on a weekly basis.
