Melissa Gate Joins ‘La Casa de los Famosos: All-Stars’ from Colombia

Mexico City, Mexico — Melissa Gate, a popular participant from ‘La Casa de los Famosos Colombia,’ joined the cast of ‘La Casa de los Famosos: All-Stars’ on April 8, 2025, in a much-anticipated exchange between the two reality franchises. The transition was initially revealed to viewers a week prior, although details remained undisclosed to the competitors of both shows until the official announcement was made.

Arriving in a secure vehicle, Melissa was escorted by a production team member as she entered the All-Stars studio amid high expectations. Her presence was highly publicized on social media leading up to the event, positioning her as a rising star within the reality television sphere.

The event sparked significant buzz, especially as viewers anticipated interactions between Melissa and the existing All-Stars cast. Upon her arrival, while many cast members welcomed her warmly, Lupillo Rivera‘s lukewarm greeting was notably criticized by social media users. The singer, who had previously been involved with contestant Ariadna Gutiérrez, greeted Melissa with a mere kiss on the cheek before quickly stepping away.

“The most famous exchange in Latin America,” Melissa dubbed the crossover, highlighting its significance across thirteen countries, including the upcoming debut in Dubai.

In a lighthearted moment, she described her integration as “an excellent work environment,” fueling excitement for the championship season ahead. Following her introduction, the All-Stars contestants watched clips revealing newcomer Manelyk González‘s arrival at ‘La Casa de los Famosos Colombia’ and witnessed an awkward snub from fellow contestant Yina Calderón during her welcome.

Melissa took the opportunity to engage in playful banter, recalling her rivalry with Yina. “She accused me of being a nobody, so I humorously fired back, pointing out her makeup failures and encouraging her to watch my past shows,” she said, affirming her narrative with a smile. Her open and bold personality quickly captivated the attention of both contestants and fans alike.

As the reality show unfolds, viewers are keen on the dynamics between Melissa and the All-Stars participants, especially the tension rooted in previous rivalries. Telemundo continues to anticipate a thrilling season with the new addition.
