Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, has once again stirred controversy, this time by claiming that Kris Jenner, the mother of Kim Kardashian, orchestrated the infamous sex tape scandal involving her daughter and Ray J. In a recent interview and several social media posts, Ye stated that Kris Jenner not only knew about the original 2007 tape but also allegedly sent him, Kim, and Ray J a contract to film a second part of the sex tape.
The claims, as shocking as they are, reignite a long-standing controversy surrounding the origins and handling of the sex tape that launched Kim Kardashian into fame. According to Ye, this wasn’t a spontaneous scandal or a private moment leaked without consent, but rather a carefully managed move by the Kardashian-Jenner matriarch to propel her daughter’s career. “Kris made us do it. She planned everything,” Ye said in one post. “She sent the contract. She knew what she was doing.”
This isn’t the first time Ye has spoken out against the Kardashian family, particularly Kris Jenner, whom he has frequently criticized for her role in managing the lives and careers of her daughters. However, this is one of the most explosive accusations yet, suggesting deliberate involvement in one of pop culture’s most infamous scandals.
Ray J, the singer and reality TV personality involved in the tape, has previously made similar claims. In past interviews, he alleged that the release of the sex tape was not only consented to by Kim Kardashian but was also part of a broader publicity strategy. Ray J even claimed that multiple versions of the tape existed, and that Kris Jenner watched and approved one before choosing which version should be released to the public.
For years, the Kardashian family has denied such allegations, insisting that the sex tape was a private matter that was leaked without Kim’s consent. The new claims from Ye could potentially reopen public scrutiny and legal discussions, although no official legal action has followed so far.
The public response to Ye’s statements has been polarized. Some people are skeptical, questioning the timing and motive behind the allegations, especially considering Ye’s complicated relationship with the Kardashians following his divorce from Kim. Others believe the accusations deserve attention, especially in light of Ray J’s past remarks and the unusual nature of how the scandal originally unfolded.
As of now, neither Kim Kardashian nor Kris Jenner has issued an official response to Ye’s latest claims. Whether these statements will lead to further investigation or simply add to the ongoing drama surrounding the Kardashian-West saga remains to be seen. In any case, Ye’s words have once again placed the family in the center of controversy, challenging the narratives that have shaped their legacy for over a decade.
