VH1 Makes Production Changes for ‘Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood’

VH1 reportedly hired a new production company for the “Love and Hip Hop: Hollywood” series.

In October, it was reported that the reality show was undergoing some major changes including getting rid of its current production company, Eastern TV. Well, it seems the VH1 series will allegedly be produced by “Big Fish Entertainment” which already produces VH1’s “Black Ink Crew” and programming for MTV, Discovery, WE TV, TLC and more.

VH1 reportedly gave Eastern TV the boot in September because they were looking to direct “LHHH” in a new direction, Deadline reported. The network wanted to the show to only consist of cast-members who were in a relationship, according to Jasmine Brand sources.

“They want the cast to only focus on actual couples and big names,” an insider told the media outlet Monday, Oct. 29.

Although Eastern TV was reportedly pulled from the “LHHH” series, the company will continue to produce the other “Love and Hip Hop” franchises including, Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta,  Love and Hip Hop: New York, and  Love and Hip Hop: Miami.

VH1’s choice to bring on a new production company will not affect Mona Scott-Young‘s position as the “LHH” franchise creator and executive producer.

The “LHH” franchise as a whole has undergone several changes and recently announced its two newest additions to “LHHMIA.” Television host Jessie Woo confirmed on Twitter in November that she’ll be joining the reality series.

“Y’all ready to see Mama Woo on #LHHMIA? 😭😭😭🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹,” she tweeted Nov. 19.

Underground rapper Khaotic also confirmed he too would be joining the VH1 series. Folks seemed excited about the new additions to “LHHMIA” and are looking forward to seeing the stars.

One fan responded, “My good sis is about to be on some ‘Hey ya’ll, it’s ya girl – Jessie Woo’ 😭…. SO SO proud of what you’re about to do!! TO THE TOP!! ✊🏾🇭🇹❤️”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
