Verne 'Mini Me' Troyer Sex Tape Leaked By His Girlfriend

The woman filmed in Verne ‘Mini Me’ Troyer’s raunchy sex tape has admitted she is responsible for leaking footage of their kinky escapades.

Ex-girlfriend Ranae Shrider was seen kissing the Austin Powers star as he focused the camera for their taped sex romp in brief footage posted on TMZ.

Troyer then filed a $20 million (£10 million) lawsuit against the website's owners, claiming they violated his rights by publishing clips from the film last week.

The diminutive actor obtained a temporary restraining order forcing TMZ to pull the sex tape from the internet, but Shrider's revelation in a signed declaration filed at a Los Angeles court earlier this week has prompted a judge to reverse the ruling.

The footage was reinstated on the website on Tuesday evening.

However, the judge has still imposed a ban on an adult film distributor from selling or taking orders for the tape.
