Joseline's Cabaret is a reality television series that premiered on January 19, 2020, on the Zeus Network.[1] It documents the interactions between Puerto Rican rapper Joseline Hernandez and several young women that compete to dance with Hernandez during her cabaret shows, which often involve verbal and physical altercations.

Overview and casting

[edit]

Miami (season 1)

[edit]

Joseline's Cabaret: Miami chronicles the everyday life of Joseline Hernandez as she struggles to launch a cabaret show in Miami, Florida. The show is set in G5ive Miami, a strip club where Joseline worked a decade ago, and provides an inside look into the everyday lives of strippers and sex workers, reminiscent of the 1998 film The Players Club.[20] The dancers featured in the cabaret appear as supporting cast members in confessional interview segments throughout the series. They include Daisy (Seanyce Bishop) from Miami, Joseline's friend and self-professed "bottom bitch",[21] as well as dancers Ms. JaaDreams (Coriana Singleton), Lucky Hu$tla (Nieja Howell), Chazzity Leslie and Sapphire Eden (Tierra Williams) from Cleveland, Ohio. The show also features interludes with original music by Joseline and her fiancé Balistic Beats (Robin Ingouma), who is credited as the show's music producer. Midway through the season, after Joseline and Chazzity get into a brawl, the cabaret's future hangs in balance. After several sit-downs with the cast, Joseline meets with Daisy, Chazzity, Lucky and Sapphire at the club for a final "trial run" of the cabaret. Ultimately, she decides to scrap the project and move it to Atlanta, with only Lucky and Sapphire returning.

Atlanta (season 2)
