Empire Girls: Julissa & Adrienne

In the series premiere, former "106 and Park" cohost Julissa Bermudez moves back home to New York to kick-start her TV hosting career--and be closer to her bestie, former Cheetah Girl Adrienne Bailon! Tired of being overlooked because of her accent and looks, Julissa is a bit disappointed when she's asked to model--and not host--at New York Fashion Week. Will she take her agent's advice to go mainstream and lose her thick, Spanish accent--or will she stay true to her Latina self? Meanwhile, Adrienne is ready to ditch her MO as Rob Kardashian's ex-girlfriend and push forward with her singing career. But she's in for a rude awakening when she tanks a rehearsal in front of singer-songwriter Ne-Yo because she can't seem to let go of the past. Can Adrienne get focused in time before she loses Ne-Yo and her management's support?

Family means everything to Adrienne, so when her sister Claudette is about to give birth, the singer can't help but throw her the shower of the year! While Adrienne spends her time prepping for the newest member of her family, Julissa lands a second date with New York Giants player Antrel Rolle. Adrienne thinks that Julissa may be falling too fast and fears for her bestie who's been hurt by pro athletes in the past. But it's out with the old and in with the new for Julissa who lands a new gig, a new man and a new apartment! Can Adrienne be on her best behavior when Julissa hosts her housewarming bash? Or will her protective side get the best of her? Plus, see Adrienne's life change in an instant when she welcomes her adorable new baby niece!

Adrienne struggles with her personal style and image for an upcoming "OK! Magazine" photo shoot--and the last thing she wants is to look "too pretty!" After meeting with celeb stylist extraordinaire Atiba Newsome, Adrienne is worried that she won't be able to find her edge and pull it off. Meanwhile, Julissa runs into her ex-fiance Larry Johnson at a concert. After meeting later to catch up, she asks him about how his life is now. Is LJ still the same man that he once was?

The pressure's on! Adrienne is asked to sing the national anthem at a Knicks game--and while it's an awesome opportunity to showcase her talent as a solo artist, it also serves as a great birthday gift for her patriotic stepdad. But finding a man is also on the top of Adrienne's list, and when online dating reveals no takers, both her and Julissa's moms take on the role of matchmakers! But before Julissa and Adrienne get a chance to meet their moms' pick of suitors, the girls get into a huge fight when Ne-Yo bans Julissa from the studio.

Julissa is serious about making moves to launch her TV hosting career, but when Adrienne sets her up with radio queen Angie Martinez, will she see her potential? Meanwhile, the girls decide they are sick of being single and that it's time to take matters into their own hands. Will they be able to pull off a singles' mixer to meet some new men? Plus, Julissa and Adrienne get invited to the New York premiere of "Think Like a Man"--and "US Weekly" snaps a photograph of Adrienne's new nail polish line! After the positive publicity, Adrienne decides to push up the date of her soft launch party-- and after weeks of planning and preparing, will she be able to pull off an event that screams fabulous?

Adrienne realizes that she's more well known for her days as a Cheetah Girl than her time spent acting-- so she ups the ante by auditioning for a lesbian role in a new independent film production. But will her Christian mother approve of her bold career move? Plus, Julissa's agent tells her she might be perfect as a red carpet correspondent for a hip Latino channel, but she needs to update her hosting reel if she wants to land the gig. The catch is the reel needs to be done by the end of the week and she only has limited resources to pull it off. Meanwhile, Layla and her husband quarrel about her bicoastal lifestyle.
