Kelsey Nicole: From Megan Thee Stallion’s Assistant to Love & Hip Hop: Houston Star
Former assistant and best friend to Megan Thee Stallion, Kelsey Nicole, is reportedly making her way into the reality television world as she joins the cast of Love & Hip Hop: Houston. The news comes from The Jasmine Brand, highlighting Nicole’s significant ties to the music industry and her controversial past.
Nicole: A Key Addition to ‘Love & Hip Hop: Houston’
Nicole’s involvement in the show, the fifth installment in the well-known franchise, is seen as a key development. Initially, the show had plans to feature Megan Thee Stallion, but those plans were scrapped. Now, the series is gaining momentum since its revival last October, and Nicole’s addition appears to be a strategic move.
Nicole’s connections to the music industry are not limited to her past association with Megan Thee Stallion. Her son’s father, Darien ‘Dboy’ Smith, is a former executive at Megan’s old record label, 1501 Certified Entertainment, and is the current manager of rapper Erica Banks. These connections undoubtedly make Nicole a compelling figure for the series.
A Controversial Past
Nicole’s relationship with Megan Thee Stallion came to a dramatic halt following the infamous shooting incident involving Tory Lanez in 2020, an event that shook the music industry. Lanez is currently serving a 10-year sentence for the incident. Despite the mounting evidence and past testimonies, Nicole chose to plead the fifth during her testimony and has not publicly identified Lanez as the shooter.
Upcoming Developments
The show is set to air on MTV, and the casting process is in its final stages. Nicole’s involvement with the show not only underscores her ties to the music industry but also brings an intriguing dynamic to the series, given her history with Megan Thee Stallion and her role in the Tory Lanez trial.
