The spotlight is set to shine brightly on January 9, 2025, as Prime Video welcomes viewers to the dazzling world of 'Red Carpet – Vip al tappeto,' a new game show featuring some of Italy's most beloved celebrities. Hosted by the charismatic Alessia Marcuzzi, the show promises not only fun and entertainment but also high-stakes challenges, all laid out upon the iconic red carpet.
'Red Carpet – Vip al tappeto' is adapted from the original Asian format developed by Nippon TV and is poised to become one of the most talked-about programs of the month. The show will feature renowned personalities Giulia De Lellis, Valeria Marini, Cristiano Malgioglio, Melissa Satta, and Elettra Lamborghini, all dressed to impress for the occasion. With four episodes slated for release, audiences can expect laughter and surprises as these stars navigate through outrageous challenges against the backdrop of glamour.
Each celebrity is paired with their own team of bodyguards, made up of popular comedians including Francesco Arienzo, Awed, Herbert Ballerina, Ginevra Fenyes, and more. The twist? Whenever one of the stars fumbles during their tasks, they risk losing one member of their protective team. The ultimate goal is to keep their celebrity clients on the red carpet and prevent any disastrous falls from grace.
Host Alessia Marcuzzi, who not only leads the show but also plays the role of head of security, stated during the promotional events, "This is not just about fashion and fame; it’s about strategy, teamwork, and above all, having fun." Her experience and charm are expected to carry the show, keeping audiences engaged and entertained.
Fans of Lamborghini, who is both singer and television personality, can look forward to seeing her shine on screen. Having amassed a staggering 7.1 million followers on social media, she recently wowed fans with her eye-catching red carpet attire during the show's premiere launch event. Sporting a stunning satin gown with a daring thigh-high slit, she aptly confirmed her status as the 'queen of entertainment' on her Instagram, captioning one of her posts with "Like wine."
The entertainer has carved out her niche through various successful music hits, such as 'Pem Pem' and 'Musica (e il resto scompare),' and has been no stranger to the small screen, previously serving as coach on 'The Voice of Italy' and judge on 'Italia’s Got Talent'. Since her wedding to Dutch DJ Afrojack on September 26, 2020, at the picturesque Villa Balbiano on Lake Como, Lamborghini continues to be one of the most colorful characters of Italian pop culture.
Alongside the game show, Prime Video is rolling out other notable releases for January 2025, including the emotional film 'Unstoppable' featuring Jennifer Lopez, which tells the inspiring true story of Tony Robles, and the romantic comedy 'A Wedding Too Much,' starring Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell. These new additions aim to bolster Prime Video's appeal, catering to various tastes and showcasing the breadth of original Italian content.
The feature will be available for streaming through Prime Video and accessible on Sky Glass, Sky Q, and Now, ensuring viewers can join the fun wherever they are. Fans can binge all four episodes of 'Red Carpet – Vip al tappeto' right from the comfort of their homes.
These exciting developments come as part of Prime Video's strategic efforts to enrich its offerings and capture larger audience engagement, especially with its focus on local productions. The introduction of unique formats like 'Red Carpet – Vip al tappeto' is aimed at drawing attention to Italy’s vibrant entertainment scene and fulfilling the growing demand for diverse streaming content.
With buzz surrounding its debut, 'Red Carpet – Vip al tappeto' stands as not only a reflection of the charm of Italian celebrity culture but also as an example of innovative entertainment leveraging familiar themes of competition and camaraderie among famous faces. Audiences can hardly wait for the glitz and thrill to kick off on January 9.
