Box office dominator Kevin Hart makes his return in season three
of the award-winning comedy "REAL

satire's all-star cast including Boris Kodjoe, Duane Martin, Nelly,
Nick Cannonand Cynthia Kaye McWilliams. This season will be
jammed packed with guest appearances starting with the first episode
featuring George Lopez, Jackie Longand music icon Mariah
Carey. The hit series returns with even more faux rivalries and
dis-adventures; new episodes air every Tuesday at 10 P.M. ET/PT.
However, no reality show would be complete without a knock-down,
drag-out reunion, and The "REAL
HUSBANDS OF HOLLYWOOD Reunion Special 2: Mitch, Please"
is no exception. Entertainment host, Rosci Diaz, wrangles Kevin Hart,
Nick Cannon, Boris Kodjoe, Duane Martin and Nelly to lay everything out
on the table. After the KevLita baby bump scandal, Kevin and Selita
Ebanks duke out their drama, while Nick Cannon stays mumm on the matter
as his Mariah prenuptial restrictions prevent him from speaking about
"previous engagements."
Meanwhile, the ladies of #RHOH return to duke out their own issues. Is
"the beef" settled between Kevin's ex-boo Nadine Velazquez and his
ex-wife, Bridgette (Erica Ash)? Did BFFs Tisha Campbell Martin and
Nicole Ari Parker bury the hatchet? Finally, Boris makes a last ditch
attempt to prove his singing pipes are all his own. Special appearances
by Chris Rock, Bobby Brown and Johnny Gill!
