The recent death of Silvio Berlusconi has led to a profound and obvious change in Mediaset's leadership. Piersilvio Berlusconi, who wanted to make a name for himself in the world of television entertainment, accepted the offer significant decisionsincluding the removal of Barbara D'Urso from Pomeriggio Cinque to give a less trashy and more journalistic touch to the afternoon of Canale 5 thanks to the moderation of Myrta Merlin. If this revolution has sparked a profound discussion among fans, it seems that it will not be the last. In fact, a new change of direction seems to be imminent, which will also affect the management of the Island of the Famous Ilary Blasi now in danger replaced.
Ilary Blasi, the management of the Island of the Famous is in danger
According to a backstory published by Dagospia yesterday afternoon, the possibility of Ilary's exit from hosting the Castaway reality show (which she has been leading since 2021) appears to be related to several factors. First of all, the decision to let go Unique – the documentary that reveals Blasi's truth about the separation from Totti – on Netflix, a gesture that nowas not well received by Piersilvio Berlusconi, given the direct competition with Mediaset's streaming platform Infinity TV. In addition, Berlusconi's intentions to finally remove garbage from the Mediaset networks could play a role an influence on durability from Ilary, who runs the reality show.
Ilary Blasi's personal situation with the recent divorce from Francesco Totti and the resulting rumors does not improve her position. The changing public image does not seem to be in line with the new direction that Berlusconi wants to give to Mediaset programming.
Vladimir Luxuria and possible participation in the project
In addition, Dagospia has also revealed the hypothesis of a possible replacement for Ilary Blasi as host of Island of the Famous, which could be Vladimir Luxuria, a real veteran of the program in which many people have participated: competitor (he won the 2008 edition), On-site correspondent (2012) and in-studio commentator (2017 and the biennium 2022-2023). It even seems that Berlusconi has already commissioned the former parliamentarian to do this a zero bet to test your skills as a presenter. This move could be part of the broader plan to eliminate the Mediaset networks desired by Berlusconi.
Ilary Blasi seems to find herself in a delicate position in this context of change and uncertainty. His change in media, the release of the documentary on Netflix and Berlusconi's intention to radically change the tone of television programs could lead to his replacement as manager the island of the famous. In addition, the change in this character from a media perspective, including criticism and comments on his image, creates an element of uncertainty regarding his continued hosting of the Mediaset broadcast. In short, to be sure that change is on the horizon, all that remains to be seen is whether the qualities of Vladimir Luxuria, proposed as a possible successor, can convince Piersilvio Berlusconi to take this important decision for the future of reality. However, at the moment these are just unconfirmed rumors. In fact, there is also a denial, namely that of Luxuria, who, when asked by Fanpage, provided clarity by denying the rumors circulating about her. “There is nothing true and I would like to continue to be a commentator alongside Ilary Blasi,” he explained yesterday afternoon. Even the top management of Mediaset they deny unofficially about an impending change in management of the Island of the Famous. It remains to be seen whether these are cosmetic denials or full confidence in Ilary's abilities.
