Tiffany 'New York' Pollard -- I'm Back On VH1, Bitches ... It's About

Nobody messes with New York ... unless you're family -- "I Love New York" star Tiffany Pollard is bringing it home to mama with her first VH1 show since 2009.

Tiffany (AKA New York) made it clear back in the day ... if you get in her face you better run. But we're told that's all changing on her new untitled show that began taping in L.A. this week.

Production sources tell us it will be a completely different NY ... she's breaking away from "Flavor of Love" style dating shows and getting real personal with her mom, Sister Patterson. Amen.

There'll be less of her too ... she just finished shooting an episode of "Botched" where she got a breast reduction and nose job.

We reached out to VH1 but haven't heard back.
