K. Michelle spin off news? K. Michelle was easily one of the breakout stars of “Love and Hip Hop Atlanta,” but she decided to walk away from the show after two seasons of lots of on-screen drama with her castmates. It’s been confirmed that she will appear on season four of “Love and Hip Hop New York,” but the singer has made it clear her new spot on the show is just to transition into her own spinoff show which will also feature fellow R&B singer Elle Varner. With her debut studio album “Rebellious Soul” doing well and a tour coming up, it’s apparent K. Michelle’s music career is really taking off. She recently chatted it up with Ebony Magazine and she revealed her role on LHHNY is a lot smaller than people think. She says:
“I’m really not on there as much as people expect. I’m not in every episode. I’m more of like a guest. It wasn’t a lot of transition for me. I’ve done the taping and everything. It’s easy for me to come and talk to my friends and [handle] our situations. But it wasn’t a transition because I wasn’t filming everyday.”
K. Michelle also reveals that her spinoff show may premiere as soon as March:
“We’re beginning the process. We start shooting really soon but full production doesn’t kick off until January really because I’m still busy with everything for the album. But I’ve had meetings with Mona and everything. You guys should see it in March around my birthday though.”
And when it comes to her upcoming tour, K. Michelle revealed she is excited and thrilled to have R&B singer Sevyn Streeter join her:
“I’m very excited! It starts November 4th. It’s my first tour that I’m headlining. I’m going out on tour next year also with some other people. But this is something for the fans who’ve been with me for a while. I’m giving them something one on one. Sevyn Streeter is opening, which I thought was a good idea because I respect her as a songwriter and as a new artist.”
Well good for her because the reality show thing was a bad look for her. I hope her own show will be a great and more positive platform for her.
She’s not going to be on it like that? Well that’s even more reason for me not to watch LHHNY. Just sayin…
Oh boo. False advertisement because they sure did put her all up on that trailer like she was a star.
That a-s tho…
Oh really? I thought she was really going to be on the show. Oh well. I wasn’t really trying to watch it anyway. I’m tired of LHH.
I am tired of LHH too. I can add LHH to reality shows I don’t to watch anymore RHOA and BBwives.
Yeah I think I’m over all of them. I didn’t realize so many good scripted shows were on TV. I just watched all the seasons of The Walking Dead, so I’m going to watch the new season on Sunday. Breaking Bad’s finale was great, and Scandal is my favorite show out right now. I think I’m really done with reality TV. It’s boring in comparison to the scripted shows.
Yea it really is a lot of good scripted shows I have been watching Homeland and the Blacklist. I was watching Ray Donovan and that was good but the season is over. I can’t get into Breaking Bad I just can’t lol I don’t know why. Maybe I will try to watch Walking Dead. I really liked vh1’s Hit the floor I don’t know when its coming back on. I am just waiting until January until my favorite show Justified comes on I love that show.
The season just got lame.
Good for K and onward and upward and its definitely a good look to have Sevyn on tour because she is talented and underrated she should be a big star in my opinion.
I would think K.’s management has something to do with her not being on the show as much. She does have an image to protect now and LHH isn’t exactly the most tasteful show to be on.
She’s smartening up. LHHATL wasn’t a good look for her and we know Mona likes the drama. She has her deal now and she shouldn’t compromise her career for a reality show.
Now I don’t want to watch! She’s the only person I like on the NY cast!
GOOD! Time to focus on her career and a show that won’t damage her image anymore. And I’m glad Sevyn is touring with her. I may have to get tickets now.
She’s taking Sevyn on tour? Oh wow. That was smart.
