Joseline Hernandez (born November 3, 1986),[1] also known as "The Puerto Rican Princess",[2] is an Puerto Rican-born American actress and reality television personality, best known for her appearances in the VH1 reality shows Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta and Stevie J & Joseline: Go Hollywood.
Early life
Joseline Hernandez was born in 1986 and endured a rough childhood within the public housing system of Puerto Rico.[1] Her biological father died from a heroin overdose. She moved to Florida at the age of 6, along with her mother Carmen, stepfather Luis, her older sister Yanira, and her four brothers, Jorge, Hisael, Kermit and Luis Jr.[3][4] Her youngest brother has autism and requires special care.[1] From the age of 16, she began stripping in order to provide for her family.[1] During this time, she was arrested in 2003 and 2007 under the name Shenellica Bettencourt, for lewd and lascivious behavior.[5] She also filmed a failed television pilot for Showtime, centred around a group of strippers working at the Diamond Cabaret in Miami.[6]
Career
Hernandez was discovered by Grammy Award-winning record producer Stevie J while performing as a stripper at the Onyx Club in Atlanta.[1] In 2012, she became part of the original cast of Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta, appearing as Stevie J's new artist, an aspiring rapper, singer and actress. It is later revealed that the two are romantically and sexually involved, much to the anger of his girlfriend, Mimi Faust. The trio's love triangle became Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's leading storyline and Hernandez continued as a main cast member for six seasons. It is the highest rated show of the Love & Hip Hop franchise and is one of the highest rating shows on VH1 overall, averaging 3.5 million viewers per episode.[7][8]
The show's success and notoriety catupulted Hernandez to stardom, leading to appearances at the 2013 AVN Awards, the 2013 BET Hip Hop Awards and the 2015 BET Awards, as well as guest spots on This Is Hot 97, K. Michelle: My Life and The Wendy Williams Show. She also made several cameo appearances with Stevie in various hip hop and R&B videos, including the music videos for Trey Songz's "Hail Mary", The Game's "I Remember", Ciara's "Body Party" and Faith Evans' "I Deserve It".
During the course of the show, Joseline released a series of reggaeton and dancehall-influenced singles and music videos, many of which are sung and spoken in Spanish, her native tongue. She performed her songs "Church" and "Stingy with My Kutty Katt" live at Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's fourth season reunion. She also appeared on Rocko's mixtape Wordplay 2 on the track "Girls Gone Wild" (with Young Dro).
In 2016, Joseline starred with Stevie in the spin-off show Stevie J & Joseline: Go Hollywood, which premiered to 2.6 million viewers.[9] In 2017, she starred in her own television special, Joseline's Special Delivery, which premiered on VH1 on May 1, 2017 and documented the birth of her child.[10][11]
On June 5, 2016, Joseline revealed that she had filmed an acting role on Lee Daniels' television series Star, which aired from December 14, 2016 on Fox.[12] She appeared in the pilot episode as Michelle, a stripper. She returned in a recurring role for three more episodes in 2017.
Joseline appeared as a guest co-host on the syndicated talk show The Real from January 23 to 27, 2017, and again from May 1 to 5, 2017.
On June 1, 2017, Hernandez dramatically quit Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta after six seasons during the taping of the sixth season's reunion, amid tensions with creator Mona Scott-Young and the show's producers.[13]
Personal life
Hernandez is openly bisexual.[14]
She and Stevie initially claimed to have married in 2013.[15] However, Stevie J admitted in 2016 that the marriage was faked for publicity[16] and in court documents released later that year, Joseline confirmed they were in a long term relationship and never legally married.[17] The couple's break up was documented in Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's fifth season, although they have reconciled on-and-off since then.
During filming of Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta's fifth season reunion, Hernandez revealed she was pregnant with Stevie's sixth child. She gave birth to a daughter, Bonnie Bella, on December 28, 2016.[18]
