“Love and Hip Hop: Atlanta” viewers wondered if Tokyo Vanity was fired from the show after posting a recent picture of herself leaving Georgia.

Fans were confused when Tokyo Vanity posted a photo of her bags and luggage packed while heading back to New Orleans. The 23-year-old took to Instagram on Thursday and wrote, “Packaged and now being shipped back to New Orleans 🕺🏾 [Supa Cent]  [Judy] y’all baby sister is coming home to stay 🕺🏾 byeeeeeeeee Atl it’s been real.”

Vanity became a fan favorite on “LHHATL” season 7 and really made her mark on the show. Viewers deemed the star as one of the “realest” and most “mature” cast-member on the VH1 series. Fans immediately flooded her comments and asked: “so you’re not gonna be on the next season?”

Instagram wrote, “So u not goin to be on the show next season???? I’m not watching if u not on it.”

“Does that mean you’re not going to be on LHHATL next season?”

“Naw now! Sooooooooo are you moving back to ATL when they start back filming or is Mona giving us a #LHHNewOrleans?”

“Aww please tell me u will be on the next season we all literally fell in love with u.”

Another added, “Waiiiiit a damn minute! You aren’t going to be on LHHATL next season? I’m done with that show! I’m good luv, enjoy.”

People called Vanity a “breath of fresh air” because of her bluntness. The “B.A.P.S” rapper shared a list of messages from females viewers who were inspired by her presence on “LHH.” One woman thanked Vanity for displaying so much “confidence” on television and encouraging others to “love” themselves. The star wrote to her fans, “Love y’all so much thanks for loving me … helping me love me, and motivating me to help you love you.”

VH1 has yet to confirm whether or not Vanity will be back on “LHHATL” next season.

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
