TV SCOOP: Lee Daniels’ ‘Empire’ Spinoff ‘Star’ Picked Up To Series At Fox

During a recent interview with VH1, the “Puerto Rican Princess” gave the scoop on working with the famed director on his latest project.

Do you think it’s hard for reality stars to transition into other avenues, like acting or music?
Joseline Hernandez: You just gotta do your own thing and then you’ll be successful like me, and then you’ll end up having your own show and then you’ll end up doing something for Lee Daniels on FOX or different things like that.

Wait. You’re working with Lee Daniels? What can you tell us about that?
Yes, I did. I did something for FOX. I’ve worked his new show, and it just got picked up.

Is this the show that Queen Latifah is connected to?
Yes, it just got picked up. So that’s amazing so, yeah, you know you’ve got to do you. And be yourself and then people will really gravitate to you and then you won’t be here today and they vote your ass off the island next week.

“Star” revolves around three talented young singers (Jude Demorest, Ryan Destiny and Brittany O’Grady) who navigate the cut-throat music business on their road to success. The series will feature original music, along with musical fantasy sequences, as the girls dream of their future.

Benjamin Bratt, Queen Latifah, and Lenny Kravitz will also star on the show.

Transgender model Amiyah Scott has also been cast in the forthcoming series.

This should be very interesting.
