Snooki's cell phone pics are now online.

Are the leaked photos from a cell phone showing off Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi real?

Yes.

Snooki's rep confirmed to E! News that the leaked cell phone snaps are real.

Cue the rep:

"Clearly these are old and personal photos that were not meant for the public. It's a shame someone decided to leak them for obvious personal gain."

Some think it was Snooki who released the photos to gain a bit of publicity for her show.

The UK Daily Mail reveals that "in one photo a woman, who appears to be the 24-year-old, is wearing a white robe."

The paper describes the other shots, and all the pics are here:

"The grainy photo is of the girl, wearing bright green nail polish, looking seductively into her own mobile device, as if she’s taking a self-portrait.

The next shot shows the robe being opened to reveal private parts, which have been crossed out by black bars.

The photos appear to have been taken in a hotel room as the sheets look like hotel-issued linens and there is a room service tray on the bed.

The third picture in the series is a close up of a girl’s full nude body. Again, the private parts have been black-boxed out."

Is this nothing more than publicity for Snooki’s reality show?
