Eighth series (2014)

Secret Story 8 is the eighth season of the French reality television series Secret Story, a show which is based loosely on the international Big Brother format. TF1 has formalized an eighth season on January 27, 2014.[1]

Whereas several rumors explain that Benjamin Castaldi would not host the eighth season of Secret Story, he stated that he will. It was said Benjamin Castaldi will only host the live shows and not the daily recaps anymore, unlike previous seasons [2] and that La Voix (Big Brother) will voice off the daily recaps,[3] but it was revealed at the press release that Benjamin Castaldi would still host daily recaps and that nothing changes compared to previous seasons. Adrien Lemaitre returns to host the spin-off show: After Secret.

Due to the 2014 FIFA World Cup, this season is shortened and lasted 10 weeks. It started on Friday 18 July 2014 on TF1. It was confirmed the finale is on Friday 26 September 2014 at 10:45 p.m.

Leila Ben Khalifa, ex contestant of Grande Fratello 6, is the winner of Secret Story 8.

House of Secrets

For the first time, this season's house is located on the rooftop of the studios of AB Productions which was used in the 1990s where many popular sitcoms were filmed, as Hélène et les Garçons and Premiers baisers. Perched on a building, the House of Secrets offers to the contestants a wide view of Paris.

The house has three different levels. The first and second floor, and a mysterious secret basement. The garden has a floating pool and for the first time in Secret Story's history a jacuzzi, a small terrace with a large table for breakfasts and dinners. Bedrooms are in the second floor and have windows with charming shutters.

The house has 64 cameras with most of them hidden behind countless mirrors and 40 microphones.

Later, as they were chosen by the housemates, Aymeric and Leila had a dilemma to choose between Stéfan and Sara to enter the house, they chose Stéfan. Later, Stéfan received a dilemma, if he accepts to pick Sara's place to face the public vote, all the imposters (Aymeric, Leila, Sara and Stéfan) are immune. He accepted.

Then, Leila received a dilemma: she could give Aymeric the possibility to see his brother but she would take Vivian's nomination. She accepted. Then, Sara and Steph could nominate Jessica but all the housemates money would be divided by two. They accepted, Jessica therefore became nominated next to Leila. But, Aymeric and Julie could replace Jessica and Leila with Nathalie and Vivian. They accepted, Nathalie and Vivian therefore became the nominees. Finally, Nathalie and Vivian had the possibility to save one of them, but clues of their secret would be revealed to the house. They accepted and saved Nathalie.
