Ray J breaks silence on second Kim Kardashian sex tape

-

RAY J has confirmed that there is a second sex tape featuring him and Kim Kardashian but he claims she is the only person who has a copy of the X-rated footage.

The 41-year-old singer-and-actor and his ex-girlfriend Kim, also 41, dated from 2003 to 2006, and in 2007, a year after their split, a sex tape was unveiled by Vivid Entertainm­ent.

Kim took legal action against the company and settled for $5 million and the footage was released to purchase as the adult film Kim Kardashian, Superstar, and it is still available.

In the new Hulu reality TV series, Kim has been seen discussing the possibilit­y of there being more unseen footage in Ray’s possession.

Viewers also saw Kim thanking estranged husband Kanye West for obtaining a laptop from Ray which

was alleged to contain all sexual videos that she ever filmed with her ex-lover and delivering it to her.

Ray has now hit back in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com in which he claims there is another explicit home movie but insists she has always been the only person in possession of it.

The Celebrity Big Brother star is adamant that he was never responsibl­e for giving the footage to Vivid Entertainm­ent and that the entire sex tape deal was orchestrat­ed between Kim, her mother Kris Jenner and himself for profit and to increase Kim’s fame and launch her as a major global celebrity, in the same way that the 1 Night In Paris sex tape made Paris Hilton a major star in 2004.

Ray claims that the final contract, which was signed by both himself and Kim, was for three videos including two sex tapes, one made at the Esperanza Hotel in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and one created in Santa Barbara, and a third tape that is listed as an intro to the Cabo footage.

In the interview, Ray said: “It was something we did in Cabo on a trip for her birthday and it was something extra we were doing in the hotel. She kept them all. I never had a tape in my possession in our whole relationsh­ip …

“That’s how it all came about. Once I pitched the idea to her, just playing around a little bit, that’s when she jumped on the idea, talked to her mom and it was out of my hands from there.

“She knows there’s nothing else. I don’t have a tape to leak. I don’t have a plan to ruin them.”

Ray also detailed his meeting with 44-year-old Kanye – who, in 2021, split from Kim, who he married in 2014 – at which he gave him the laptop that he presented to Kim.

Ray insists the only material on the electronic device that he willingly gave to the hip-hop icon was intimate photos and “mini-videos” that Kim had sent to him during their four-year relationsh­ip and he handed it over to alleviate Kim’s concerns that he might have more graphic content.

The aggrieved star, who is adamant he received no money from Kanye for giving him the laptop, said: “It wasn’t a sex tape. It was a lot of pictures, a lot of little mini-videos.”

He added: “I’ve sat in the shadows for over 14 years allowing the Kardashian­s to use my name, to abuse my name, make billions of dollars over a decade-and-a-half talking about a topic I’ve never really spoken about.

“I’ve never leaked anything. I have never leaked a sex tape in my life. It has never been a leak. It’s always been a deal and a partnershi­p between Kris Jenner and Kim and me and we’ve always been partners since the beginning of this thing.”
