⦁ The Daily Mail is reporting that it has always been a partnership.
⦁ Ray J is speaking out about his role in the sex tape that leaked back in 2007 that skyrocketed Kim Kardashian into fame.
⦁ He says that he did not leak any tape and the release was and is a business partnership between him, Kim and Kris Jenner.
⦁ He made the claim after Kim claimed on her new Hulu show that she was worried he would leak a second tape of them.
⦁ He admits that there is a second tape of them but Kim has always been in possession of it and he’s never owned any copies.
⦁ Ray J says leaking the tape was his idea which he presented to Kim when he saw how Paris Hilton’s profile was boosted after the film she made was leaked.
⦁ Kim initially didn’t want to do it but ended up embracing the idea and she enlisted her mom, Kris Jenner to organize its release to Vivid Entertainment.
⦁ Earnings from the tape have reached an estimated $100 million worldwide.
