Controversial hip hop star Kanye West has once again come under fire following his post involving his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, singer Ray J, and Caitlyn Jenner via Yahoo. The now-viral tweet reads:
“Kris Jenner just sent me Kim and Ray J the contract to shoot part 2 of the s*x tape. I’m like Not without Caitlyn.”
The post sent social media into a rage, drawing immediate backlash from fans, critics, and public figures alike. Many have accused the rapper of crossing serious boundaries by making light of one of the most controversial moments in Kardashian’s past, her infamous 2007 tape with Ray J.
The tweet West has not yet deleted or addressed further came amidst an ongoing series of erratic public statements and social media tirades from the 47-year-old artist.
Kim Kardashian’s s*x tape with Ray J was released in 2007, catapulting her into the public spotlight. The tape, reportedly leaked without her consent, became a pivotal moment in pop culture history and launched her reality TV empire.
For years, Kardashian has tried to distance herself from the tape, focusing instead on her career as a business mogul, a legal reform advocate, and a mother. West’s recent comments have reopened old wounds, drawing both the Kardashian family and Ray J back into an uncomfortable spotlight.
What truly shocked audiences was Kanye’s inclusion of Caitlyn Jenner in the narrative. It is unclear whether this was intended as a jab at Jenner, a sarcastic punchline, or simply another instance of West’s increasingly erratic behavior.
Social media users expressed confusion and outrage, with many questioning whether West was making an offensive joke or attempting to provoke the Kardashian family.
Well, this isn’t the first time Kanye has dropped reference of the s*x tape saga. In 2022, West had claimed during an interview that he retrieved a laptop from Ray J containing an unreleased second s*x tape involving Kardashian. He claimed he delivered it to Kim in person, describing it as a gesture of protection.
Kardashian’s team later clarified that the footage was merely “vacation content,” and no new explicit material was found. Ray J also denied the existence of a second tape, stating that the entire scandal had taken a significant emotional toll on him and his family.
