KUWTK became a huge hit for years afterward, and the Kardashians built an empire off their fame. If it was indeed a scheme, it worked like gangbusters. Or perhaps even on momager Kris Jenner‘s, as she is usually credited in speculation as the mastermind behind it all.
FARRAH GAWKER PLUS
That deal - plus the timing - has led people to believe for years this was a calculated move on Kim’s part. Like BFF Paris, Kim sued Vivid Entertainment over the release of Kim Kardashian, Superstar (seriously? that’s the best they could do?) but then settled for a reported $5 million - in a deal which gave her consent to the tape’s release. But this time it was not Ray J who leaked the video - or profited from it. In this case it was a tape she had apparently made years earlier in 2002 with then-boyfriend Ray J. Just a few short years after her friend’s sex tape made headlines and (probably) gave her reality show a much bigger launch than it would have gotten otherwise, Kim Kardashian ALSO had a sex tape leak right before Keeping Up With The Kardashians premiered in 2007. Kim Kardashian West (c) Robert Wallace/WENN Ultimately Rick agreed to pay Paris $400,000 plus a cut of the profit on the back end (no pun intended), but she later claimed she “never made a dime” on it. Paris sued, but believe it or not the lawsuit was actually thrown out of court! Inneresting, considering by today’s standards this would probably qualify as a violation of revenge porn laws. People actually thought of Paris as a porn star for years - even though she fought to stop the tape’s release. Rick filmed it and subsequently distributed it under the title One Night In Paris, and it was a huge hit in adult video stores, which were a thing back then. You Didn't Think Those People Shouting at Town Mee.In 2003, a sex tape featuring Paris Hilton and then-boyfriend Rick Salomon leaked online, and it would open the floodgates for years - largely because a lot of people in the industry saw it as great publicity as it leaked right before the premiere of her upcoming reality show, The Simple Life.But Ryan recently admitted to hitting on his daughter at Farrah's funeral. Hard to know what's true and what's not true. Griffin confirmed to Larry that he was banned from the funeral, despite his good relationship with Farrah. Beings Ryan allegedly tried to shoot Griffin, and all. I said they probably meant Tatum and Patrick. I don't mean to toot my own gossipy horn, but at the time of Farrah's funeral, the media reported that Tatum and Griffin were at the service. In an attempt to be balanced, Larry reads from a piece of paper that Griffin was acquitted of manslaughter in the death of Francis Ford Coppola's son John Carlo in 1986, but charged with negligent operation of a boat. So why were charges dropped? It didn't make too much sense. And also weird that Griffin said he was stabbed with the poker by Ryan. Griffin's pregnant wife got a face injury from a fire poker, but because no one could say for sure how she got it, no one was charged. That weird altercation a few years ago where Ryan was arrested for trying to shoot Griffin, but was later not charged, stemmed from Griffin trying to get brother Redmond off of drugs. The interview with Ryan right before Farrah's death was odd, with Ryan saying he would marry Farrah as soon as she could talk (again, I agree- that was odd) Ryan and Alana were exploiting Farrah (I can't disagree with him.Griffin also claimed that Alana was selling Farrah's items on eBay the day she died, and that he knows the eBay seller's name) He said his Dad was violent, was not faithful to Farrah, and that he may be having intimate relations with Alana Stewart (Farrah's best friend- and he did not have any proof, just speculation). Griffin O'Neal, son of Ryan, was on Larry King last night and he wasn't afraid to dish the dirt.
