MiMi Faust Sets The Record Straight About Stevie J, Joseline and Karlie Redd

Love & Hip Hop Atlanta has left a lot of questions unanswered that many wanted to know. Well Love & Hip Hop's Mimi Faust joined Atlanta's very own Egypt to set a few things straight. Mimi opened up about her business with Stevie J, what she really thinks about Joseline and why she ain't quite digging Karlie Redd anymore. Peep the interview below courtesy of theybf.


Egypt: So I watched your face when you found out on camera that Joseline said she was having a thing with him (Stevie J), that she was in love with him. How did that feel in the middle of a room with people and why do it?

Mimi: Um, I think Joseline she just says whatever out of her mouth with no regard and I mean… (pauses and gets emotional)

Egypt: There were a lot of questions when people knew you were coming on the show, like how long were you guys really dating? I heard you say 15 years on tv.

Mimi: I want to clear this up. I’ve known him for 15 years. We have dated off and on. I have not been with Stevie straight for 15 years. I was absolutely not with Stevie when he was with Eve. I wasn’t with Stevie when he was with Alex, Whoopi Goldberg’s daughter. I was not with Stevie when he was in any other relationship. So I’ve known Stevie for 15 years and we’ve dated off and on but for the past 3.5/4 years we have been together.

Egypt: Ok. What is it about this man? Just keep it real. What is it about him that has these women going crazy? Because it’s not the singing- what is it? Is it the… pow pow

Mimi: If you watch the first episode I clearly stated I have never met a… that has made me do cartwheels. I clearly said that in the first episode. What I think what it is for me the connection that him and I had and also I’m just flat out he lies to me a lot. I mean that’s just the bottom line. He’ll say one thing to me and he’ll say one thing to her or whoever else but and im not with him when he’s out with anyone else. I only know what goes on when we’re together.

Egypt: Most of us have either been there or have been there, where we love someone so much they tell us the right things we wanna hear. They lie to us just enough for us to say okay and sleep at night. But now you’ve seen it on tv. What has changed now that you actually see it for what it is.

Mimi: A lot has changed. You guys, when you’re in a relationship and things happen, it’s a process of getting out. One thing will happen and you just don’t leave your family because one thing happened. So it’s definitely a process of a transition and process stage that you go through so that’s what I’m going through right now.

Egypt: Is it that you want to keep your family together? I know you have a two-year-old.

Mimi: I would love to keep my family together. But at this point I don’t see that happening so I’m willing to just let this do what it do.

Egypt:  I was a little upset with you last night when you decided to take a commission of Stevie’s business in exchange…well it felt like you were accepting all of the mess that had happened on the prior episode. That everything was forgiven as long as you got 10% or 20% What did you get? 10 or 20?

Mimi: No no no no no. What it was was I wanted to be more involved in the business. It wasn’t I was accepting a payoff. I actually wanted to be involved. If I put in this work and I have been dealing with this this long I want to be more hands-on with the situation as far as making the money and everything that goes along with it.

Egypt: There was one thing I wanted to address. You said Karlie last night surprised you on the show. Why?

Mimi: She kinda threw me under the bus last night. Joseline came to see her and it was a gym scene and she told Joseline that I was talking about her or something along those lines and said it more than once and I’m like were we watching the same show?!

See here's my thing Mimi is actually one of my favorites on the show. So I don't wanna see my girl get played but that Karlie Redd something ain't right about her. I feel as if she is only in it for herself. I think Karlie Redd is trying to play Mimi in the process of trying to make a come up for herself. Joseline is just whatever I'm just tired of her a$$ and Stevie J *ROLLS EYES* Hell if I was Mimi I would find a way to get a cut also. You making me look crazy on TV cut the check boo cause imma be rich and crazy!
