VH1's original east coast franchise is back. As we reported yesterday, Erica Mena, Cyn Santana, Rich Dollaz, Yandy Smith, Mendecees, Peter Gunz, Tara and Amina will all return to the show. But, in order to keep up with the large number of cast mates on their west coast import, Love and Hip Hop Hollywood, they added five more new members to the cast. Not much is know about them besides what's in the statement, but their names- Chink Santana, Chrissy Crastanda, Cisco Rosado, Diamond Strawberry, Precious Paris- have started to make waves on social media.

Now, VH1 has shared a new first look at the explosive season, due to premiere on Dec. 15.

In the new 23 second clip, Erica, Cyn, Peter and Tara are all seen in conflict. Cyn, who is obviously no longer Erica's significant other as she is currently engaged to Bow Wow, gets into a physical altercation with her former flame. Tara, who was embarrassed on last season's reunion when Amina and Peter performed together, seems to be fighting her deep feelings for Peter again.

EXCLUSIVE: Watch Tahiry Jose Reveal Why She Isn't Returning to Love and Hip Hop NY

A clip of Yandy and Mendecees shows possible trouble in paradise as she glances at a pregnancy test and apologizes to her man, who she waited to be with all last season. Basically, from the 20 seconds alone, there is definitely enough drama to last all season long.

Watch the clip for yourself, below.
