“Love & Hip-Hop: Houston” Is In The Works: Details

by

Fans of the Love & Hip Hop franchise will be excited to hear news of a new Love & Hip Hop Houston spinoff that includes notable artists from the city. It has been reported that a new show is in the works as of now. Rumors began in 2016 of a new Love & Hip Hop franchise that was set to expand to the city but there wasn’t much development on the subject. During that time, there were talks of potential cast members such as Jhonni Blaze, Mehgan James, Kirko Bangz, and Just Brittany. Additionally, a roster of several other renowned Houston natives who are embedded in the music industry were considered.

However, production was reportedly stopped indefinitely due to safety concerns for the crew on set. According to insiders, there were alleged acts of extreme violence between cast members and issues with those local to the area, citing the set as “too chaotic”. As months turned to years, there was little insight on whether or not the plans for Love & Hip Hop: Houston would ever come to fruition.

In 2018, efforts to create a Houston version of the reality franchise resurfaced. There were even reports that suggested that form Destiny’s Child member Letoya Luckett may be part of the cast. She quickly denied the claims in a social media post in which she stated, “Hey Loves! So yeaaa NO! I am NT on the new season of ‘Love & Hip Hop Houston’. Not sure where that even came from. BUT u can catch me on Season 3 of Single Ladies on VH1 #Felicia.”

Now, according to inside sources, executives at the Love & Hip Hop franchise are determined to make Love & Hip Hop: Houston a reality. Conversations regarding the potential spin-off have reportedly resumed, and VH1 is actively searching for talent. They have not specified the individuals they are considering for the cast. Although, it is possible that a completely new lineup will be assembled. Overall, this would counter the rumored participants of 2016 and 2018. Let us know what you think of all of this, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the music world.

Letoya Luckett Reveals Destiny’s Child Took A Toll On Her Confidence

Letoya Luckett opened up about how being a member of Destiny’s Child affected her confidence.

During a visit to the “Good Moms, Bad Choices” podcast, the original  member said being in the group took a toll on her confidence. Before entering the group at age 11, she was singing lead in church and in her previous singing group. Once she became a member of Destiny’s Child, she had to compromise and while in midst of that she lost her confidence.

“With a lot of partnerships, we lose ourselves to become one or we feel it’s going to make us cohesive or make the situation work out better,” Luckett said.

While in the group, she said she had to be flexible and “play her role” not knowing how that would change how she felt about herself.

“I didn’t feel like I couldn’t sing lead when I came out of [Destiny’s Child] because for so long I felt like I had sacrificed myself for the greater good,” the 41-year-old added.

Looking back, she reflected about what she would tell her younger self.

“What I would’ve told my younger self is to not lose myself even being a team player in that situation,” she said. “That I still matter. I still have a voice.”

“Still remain confident in who God created you to be and the gift that He gave you,” she continued. “You don’t have to shrink yourself to be good at your role….I learned so much from that situation.”

The Preacher’s Kid star also spoke about her relationship with her former group members, saying that her departure didn’t ruin their lifelong friendship.

“It’s beautiful that after so many years the love is still there. Through everything we’ve been through people can assume that we hate each other and it didn’t work out and blah blah blah but we were friends first.”
