In horrifying screen grabs from the video, one man can be seen hiding his face with a red scarf, while the driver’s face was in full view.
The two men appear to force their way into her Tesla, before roughly forcing her into their waiting Toyota Corolla.
She was seen trying to shut the door of the Corolla, before attempting to escape into her own car.
She briefly struggled between the pair, who eventually get her into their car before accelerating away.
The duo allegedly snatched the popular adult star in broad daylight on Tuesday, outside a shopping mall.
Her Cybertruck was later found abandoned at the scene.
Nicole was taken from Tachiquilte Avenue and San Esteban Street in Culiacán at around 5pm.
Culiacán is a region in north-west Mexico City in Mexico.
The State Attorney General’s Office has issued a missing person alert for the content creator.
Police described her as 5’3″ tall with straight light brown hair and large coffee-coloured eyes.

Police have not released any update on her disappearance or the potential motive for her alleged kidnapping.
Investigators removed her Cybertruck from the scene to examine it for evidence.
The investigation remains ongoing.
Known online as La Nicholette online, the young adult star has 168,000 Instagram followers and 119,000 TikTok fans.
She posts clips of her dancing as well as comedic content related to her luxurious lifestyle.

Nicole also uploads content to Twitch, Snapchat and OnlyFans on a daily basis.
She was born and raised in the US, and her parents live in Phoenix, Arizona, where she regularly visits, according to El Pais.
She rose to fame in Mexico after commissioning a corrido – a traditional Mexican narrative ballad – for herself on her 16th birthday in 2022.
The song, called “La Muchacha del Salado”, paid for using money she had saved from her quinceañera, now has more than 27 million views on YouTube.
After going viral she started a jewellery business and bought a hat and clothing store in the mall where she was kidnapped.
The area where she lived, and where her father is from, is known to be controlled by Los Mayos, a faction of the infamous Sinaloa Cartel led by drug lord Ismael Zambada.
In some of her older videos, Nicole referred to “the man with the hat”, which is a common nickname for Zambada, however there are no confirmed links between her and any criminal group.
Last year, 398 women were kidnapped or vanished in Sinaloa alone, according to official figures.
Nicole’s kidnapping follows the murder of TikTok creator Valeria Marquez, who was murdered on livestream.
An escalating number of youth influencers in Mexico have died or faced threats for promoting or alluding to rival cartel factions.
