Anthony "Tony" Padalino is a contestant and Famous Star who competed on season 3 of Fishtank, as part of season 3's third act, Famous House 2.0.

Before Fishtank[]

Tony was born and raised in Italy before moving to New York, and speaks multiple languages. He quit his job as a waiter prior to coming onto the show.

Fishtank Season 3[]

Tony entered the house on Day 29 (November 24) along with the rest of the new fish, who were under the belief that the show was Famous House and intermingled with the plants, the final four from the original cast. Tony emerged as the house's resident cook, embracing his Italian heritage.

On Day 30, Tony developed a close relationship with Lily, and they began to frequently make out. He also won a hot dog eating challenge hosted by Alex Stein and received an immunity token to save himself from elimination when used.

On Day 32, conflict between Tony and Burt intensified. Later that night, Vance brought Tony into the confessional and told him that someone on the outside was attempting to contact him and that he needed to leave. This fabricated story was part of a wider move from production on Day 32 that purged much of the Famous House 2.0 cast.

After Fishtank[]

It seems that upon leaving fishtank (already having been exposed by Alex Stein for cheating), Tony nonchalantly tried to return to his normal life. Posting the day after exiting the house, Thanksgiving day, on Instagram stories, a picture of him and his girl friend with a caption reading “happy thanksgiving. I love you baby.” It’s hard to tell if he really she thinks it was scripted or if she’s just an idiot dumb enough to take Mr. Soprano back. Frank Hassle reposted the story to his own with another caption “This guy is not real loool”
