Two contestants on La Granja VIP, the Mexican celebrity reality competition broadcast on Azteca Uno, became the first confirmed nominees for the show's sixth week, according to reports published October 13 and 14, 2026. Kevyn "Bicolor" Contreras and Azalia "La Negra" Ojeda now face the risk of elimination ahead of the weekend's vote.
How the two nominations happened
Kevyn Contreras was placed on the nomination list through what producers call a "legacy" vote: Pascal Nadaud, the fifth contestant eliminated from the season, was given the power to name a nominee before leaving the farm and chose Kevyn, according to ClaroSports.com.
Azalia Ojeda landed on the list after losing the week's Nomination Duel to fellow contestant Mario "Mono" Osuna, according to ClaroSports.com. Losing the duel automatically placed her at risk.
Both sources described the two-name list as provisional. PorEsto reported that "la placa todavía podría cambiar conforme avance la dinámica del programa" (the nomination plate could still change as the show's dynamic advances), since more names were expected to be added during the Assembly broadcast on Wednesday, October 14.
The Assembly and this week's Capataz
According to ClaroSports.com, Pablo Montero won this week's Foreman (Capataz) competition, which grants immunity from nomination along with other privileges. Because the Capataz cannot be nominated, the remaining housemates voted in the Assembly to decide who else would join Kevyn and Azalia on the nomination plate, with the full list revealed during the October 14 broadcast on Azteca Uno, per ClaroSports.com.
ClaroSports.com also noted that five contestants have already left the competition this season: Abigail Pak, María Karunna, Carlos Trejo, Kenny Avilés and Pascal Nadaud.
How nominations and voting work
La Granja VIP follows a weekly cycle confirmed by TV Azteca's official site and ClaroSports.com: on Mondays, housemates compete for the Capataz (Foreman) role, which carries immunity and privileges; on Tuesdays, the Capataz picks a farmer and a farmhand for a Duel, and the loser is automatically nominated; later in the week, an Assembly adds further nominees through housemate votes.
Once the nomination plate is set, the public votes to decide who stays. TV Azteca's official recap of the October 8 nomination round described a 'Salvación' (Salvation) challenge held on Thursdays, in which nominees compete in a physical and mental test; the winner is automatically safe. Before that challenge, other housemates can cast symbolic votes called 'echar tierra' (throwing dirt) to block one nominee from taking part. The public then votes through the Azteca UNO website, each viewer receiving ten votes to distribute among the nominees as they choose, with TV Azteca describing the final elimination result as being revealed on a Friday episode billed as 'Viernes de Traición' (Friday of Betrayal).
Accounts of the elimination schedule differ between sources: TV Azteca's October 8 recap described the result being revealed on a Friday, while ClaroSports.com described the weekly cycle as concluding with a Sunday elimination episode.
Earlier in the season, Infobae reported that producers introduced a rule during the September 30 assembly requiring contestants to stand face-to-face with the person they nominate during the Assembly and explain their reasoning on air; that same session produced eight nominees at once, according to Infobae's report.
Background on the show
La Granja VIP is the Mexican adaptation of the Swedish format The Farm, produced for Azteca Uno. Its second season premiered on September 6, 2026, hosted by Adal Ramones alongside Kristal Silva and Alex Garza, with a panel of commentators including Linet Puente, Flor Rubio, Ferka and Rey Grupero, according to Wikipedia's entry on the series. The series follows celebrities who live isolated on a farm and perform agricultural tasks while being filmed continuously, per the same entry.
Season 1 of La Granja VIP averaged 1.86 million viewers and was won by Alfredo Adame, with Eleazar Gómez finishing as runner-up, per Wikipedia's sourcing; season 2 has averaged 1.80 million viewers so far.
What happens next
With the nomination plate finalized after the October 14 Assembly, the format calls for a Thursday Salvation challenge among the nominees, followed by a public vote through the Azteca UNO platform. Sources disagree on which day the result is announced: TV Azteca's October 8 recap described it as a Friday broadcast called 'Viernes de Traición,' while ClaroSports.com described the cycle as ending with a Sunday elimination episode.
