La Academia (The Academy) is a Mexican reality musical talent show shown on Azteca, that premiered in June 2002 and it's currently in its tenth installment. Although the show itself is not affiliated with the Endemol franchise, which includes the "Star Academy" shows, it does share the competition format of many of the variants of the global franchise.

Over the first seasons, the show was a reliable dominator of its time-slot, which was shown by its triumph over Televisa's Operación Triunfo Mexico, in several countries including Chile, Argentina, Peru and Venezuela. The rival show was only produced for one season, and was in fact the official Endemol entry in Mexico. However, the last seasons of La Academia have had declining ratings, being aired against the Mexican version of The Voice, produced by Televisa.

The show has been franchised to other countries: Azerbaijan (Akademiya), Malaysia (Akademi Fantasia), Indonesia (Akademi Fantasi Indosiar), United States (La Academia USA), Paraguay (La Academia Paraguay), Singapore (Sunsilk Academy Fantasia), Thailand (True Academy Fantasia), and Central America (La Academia Centroamérica).

The winner of the first and most successful season was Myriam Montemayor Cruz in December 2002.

Format

Each year, 14-49 people are selected to live together in a house isolated from the rest of the world, spending their days taking classes in singing, dancing, acting, and related fields, each preparing one or two songs for a 3-hour concert which they give each Sunday evening for TV viewers and a live studio audience. Each week, one of the contestants is eliminated based on the number of votes each one receives, until 4 to 10 students become the finalists and compete for the top prize. Viewers can vote by telephone, but calls are not free. Each vote costs over MN$25.00 (around US$2.50). Since The Sixth Generation, voting is by text message and each one cost MN$3.00. Camino a la Fama aired during weekday afternoons, but it was cancelled after The Ninth Generation. This show taped what the students' lives within the La Academia house. It also demonstrated the singing, dancing, and acting classes.

Outstanding Careers

La Academia has been the most important reality show of Azteca, but not all of the contestants have transcended to a successful career. There are some examples of former La Academia contestants, that have been constantly under the spotlight:

Carlos Rivera.

  1. Yuridia, earned the second place of The Fourth Generation, and has recorded 5 albums since, they have managed to sell 3.5 million copies in Latin America and have received Gold, Platinum and Diamond certifications.
  2. María Inés Guerra, released only one album after her participation in La Academia. Instead, she kept going as an acknowledged hostess of important television shows in Azteca, furthermore she was the main antagonist of the 2003 soap opera Enamórate and hosted shows for other networks like Glitz, E! Entertainment Television and Disney Channel.
  3. Carlos Rivera, was the winner of The Third Generation, and decided to switch from a singing career to musical theater. He has done five plays, one of them being The Lion King Musical in Spain which got him international recognition. Since 2015 he joined Azteca's rival network, Televisa. He plays in El hotel de los secretos ("The Hotel of Secrets"), a Mexican soap-opera based the Spanish TV series Grand Hotel.
  4. Yahir was part of The First Generation of this reality, and so far he has been one of the contestants with the most achievements, he has starred in 4 soap-operas and recorded 7 albums which garnered different recognitions.
  5. Nadia was the fifth place of The First Generation, and her 2003 album received Gold and Platinum recognitions, as well as having her duet with Yahir, Contigo Si, on the top charts for 24 weeks. She has recorded several albums in different genres, and one of them earned a Grammy nomination, in addition to 3 Gold and 1 Platinum certifications.
  6. Myriam was the first winner of the reality show, and has sold many records throughout her career. Her discography consists of 6 studio albums and 3 compilations, which have received Gold and Platinum certifications.

Other former contestants have been in different plays (e.g. Lety Lopez, Hiromi, Mario, Vince), films (e.g. Laura Caro, Victor García), T.V Shows (e.g. Ricardo, Cynthia, Esmeralda, Melissa Barrera), or having at least one successful studio album (e.g. Victor, Raúl, Toñita, Erika, Erasmo, Colette, Ma.Fernanda, TOBBY), but have never been able to reach the popularity of the aforementioned.
