Talk:Fame Academy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I believe this format was created in Sweden under the name Fame Factory. I'm not 100% sure it's the same show, so I'm not going to add it to the article, but it sure sounds like it.

Well...In a way it is the same, the backbone format was something that was spread in various countries with different names.for example
- 'Fame Academy' was the UK version,
- In Belgium, the Netherlands and France there was 'Star Academy',
- In Argentina it was 'Operacion Triunfo',
- the latest in the line is the South African version: 'Project Fame'
All of them including the Swedish 'Fame Factory' were produced by one company: Endemol I only don't know in which country was the first that started it all...
The format was developed in Spain, and Operacion Triunfo is the original version (although the French version actually broadcast first)
