The Puerto Rican Princess, Joseline Hernandez, is reality TV royalty! From the time she premiered on Love and Hip Hop Atlanta in 2012, we knew she was not one to play with. We were presented with a savvy who was all about her money, has a business mindset, and made for some good reality television.
After a few discrepancies during a Love and Hip Hop reunion show, we saw one of the most popular cast members leave the show in 2017 after 6 good seasons of one of our favorite guilty pleasures. She quit the show that night claiming “I AM Love and Hip Hop!” and wanting to move onto bigger and better things for herself and her daughter, Bonnie Bella. Since then we have not seen much of Joseline other than a few cameos like on the reality show Married to Medicine on Bravo and appearances on Marriage Boot Camp, but as we see now it was all for good reasons.
Joseline has been working hard behind the scenes by creating and executive producing her own show, Joseline’s Cabaret. Joseline went on The Breakfast Club this morning to say, “I’ve been writing Joseline’s Cabaret for like 5 years and it just came together with Zeus network. Shoutout to Lemmy (Lemuel Plummer) that helped me put it together, he’s the CEO of the network. But he really understood my vision. So basically what I did was when I left Love and Hip Hop, of course there was a lot of TV networks interested in me. ‘What are you doing? What are you going to do moving forward?’ and I felt like I needed to do something about where I came from.” She continued by saying, “Why not bring my real lifestyle, which is coming from the strip club, and putting it together.”

Now that she is a producer herself, co-host Angela Yee asked Joseline if she now understands Mona Scott Young (Executive Producer of LHH) more from a business side. She explains, “I’m not in her culture, her culture is different from mine. So automatically our energy and the way we think and the way we do things are different. You can’t compare us.” This explains why they butted heads so much in the past but now they have grown and upgraded where they are in life and there is no hate. We see this growth now that Joseline has returned to Love and Hip Hop but by coming to Miami this time.
“I am in a very happy space because I can have control of my IP, my Intellectual Property. Being able to have control of intellectual property is very important for the community we come from. We’re black, we’re young, we’re strong and we need to have IP ownership and we need to do it well. We need to teach each other how to do that and if you have goI’d content and you have good product you should have ownership.”
She’s in the happiest place she has ever been because she is able to have control of her own live without feeling the need to constantly being on 10 to entertain others. That what happens when you make a name for yourself and now she is passing the knowledge to young women on Joseline’s Cabaret, which premieres January 2020. Watch the full trailer below.
