Images from the sex tape hit the Internet the same day as her reality show’s season 3 trailer, which has caused some to question whether this is all a public relations stunt to lure viewers to tune into the program.
Either way, the tape is now in the hands of Vivid Entertainment and the adult film company is officially planning to release the explicit footage in its entirety under the title Mimi and Nikko: Scandal in Atlanta.
A snippet from the trailer shows Faust and Smith being presented with an offer to sell the tape and profit from its release.
In the end, the sex tape leak has generated major buzz so far and is sure to entice viewers to check out the new season of Love & Hip-Hop: Atlanta, which premieres May 5th.
