We have to hold ourselves responsible as well with where we are and what we contributed to. Yandy: I think that 2020 was a year that we have been the most woke we've ever been. Can you talk about the importance of fans seeing all sides of you. The franchise sometimes gets a bad rap for fights and drink throwing, but there’s obviously so much more that y’all do. But this woman is willing to sacrifice her own wellbeing just for people that she would probably never meet or don't know. When she was protesting for the guys that were in the Brooklyn prison that had no heat, a lot of them eventually came to where I was and they just came up to me and said, “Listen, I want you to tell your wife thank you for me.” Even though I didn't get it at, now I see the bigger picture. I see all the people that's affected by the injustice that she's protesting for. On another hand, I understand that it’s a sacrifice. Mendeecees: On one hand, I'm proud of her. Mendeecees, how was that for you knowing that she was doing good but was possibly putting herself in harm's way? So it's been something that's been a part of my life for a very long time. Yandy: Absolutely, more than just this year, but this year, the show actually aired it. So with Secrets Unlocked, you'll get to see a lot of behind the scenes of what it was like going to get Mendeecees, what it was like when he came home, all of that.Īnd Yandy, you were very active in the protests this year, right? Because like I said, we were mid-season, and we had so many things we wanted to share with the fans, and we stopped shooting. I hear that made it to this show that you guys are getting ready to see. ![]() So we had all of that footage that we shot and then the second half was pretty much him home-our family together. Mendeecees came home right before that pandemic shutdown on March 13th. Actually, when the shutdown happened, we were mid-season. Yandy: We were shooting our season before the pandemic hit. When do you guys actually start to tape your season of Love & Hip-Hop and when did you realize things were going to be different because of the pandemic? In anticipation of tonight's January 4th premiere, we caught up with fan favorites, Yandy and Mendeecees Harris-or Yandeecees-to chat about what viewers can expect from the special and how both they and the series have grown. The four-part VH1 special will feature the cast answering diehard fans’ questions-as well each other’s queries-about some of the most memorable moments in Love & Hip-Hop history, plus never-seen-before footage from the archives. On Love & Hip-Hop: Secrets Unlocked, cast members from all four cities will come together virtually for the very first time. Sure, we’ve seen compilation shows from this franchise before, but none like this one. Enter VH1’s Love & Hip-Hop: Secrets Unlocked. COVID -19 turned the world on its head, which meant that some of our favorite TV shows had to pivot and figure out how to move forward. The one thing no one saw coming was a global pandemic. Beyond the many infamous brawls, we’ve seen marriages and divorces, alliances and falling outs, and even a few children being born. As the series has grown so has its cast of characters. What started in New York has expanded to include a total of four cities, with memorable personalities from Miami, Atlanta, and Hollywood now in the mix. Several seasons and almost a decade later, it’s safe to say that it has been a long, but fantastic ride. The first ever episode of Love & Hip-Hop premiered on VH1 March 6, 2011. ![]()
