A Fazenda 15

A Fazenda 15 was the fifteenth season of the Brazilian reality television series A Fazenda, which premiered Tuesday, September 19, 2023, at 10:30/9:30 p.m. (BRT/AMT) on RecordTV, following a special preview episode that aired on September 18.

Development
Adriane Galisteu returned for her third season as the main host, alongside Lucas Selfie as the show's online host and correspondent.

Like the previous seasons, the contestants moved into the Farm on Sunday, September 17, 2023, two days before the season premiere.

Contestants
The celebrities were officially revealed by RecordTV on September 14, 2023.

The Warehouse
This season, 10 celebrities (7 former reality show contestants and 3 digital influencers from Kwai, one of the sponsors from this season) enter the Warehouse to compete in a public vote for the final 4 spots (2 men and 2 women) in the Farm, bringing the total number of contestants up to 22.

Pessoa and Haghbin previously appeared in A Fazenda 10 and A Fazenda 14 respectively. Both were ejected after aggressive behaviours. Nadja finished in 10th place, while Haghbin shared 16th-15th place with Tiago Ramos.

Fire challenge
Each week, contestants (determined by a random draw) compete in the Fire challenge to win the Lamp power. The Lamp power entitles the holder two flames (white and orange), which may unleash good or bad consequences on the nomination process, with the orange flame power defined by the public through the show's profile on Kwai among two options.

The winner chooses a flame for itself and delegates which contestant holds the other. The Flame holder's choice is marked in bold.

Accusations of racism
During the second live nominations on October 3, 2023, Cariúcha accused Rachel Sheherazade of being racist when she claimed that, during an argument, Rachel had told her to not spit on her to "not contract any disease". She also added that it would be because she is black. The following night, host Adriane Galisteu clarified to both of them that Rachel's comment actually was: "Don't spit on me because you could be ejected".

Accusations of homophobia
On October 4, 2023, both Cariúcha and Yuri Meirelles made offensive comments using homophobic slurs to Lucas Souza during two separate arguments. During the live show, the contestants were given a formal warning by host Adriane Galisteu, who warned them that, regardless of sexual orientation, these behaviors are unacceptable, criminal and can lead to an ejection from the game.
