Bruh, the whole Kardashian family capitalized off that tape and to this day they stay in the spotlight. Had it not been for that sex tape no one would know who they are. That's why they keep bringing up the tape. That shit is the foundation of their success.
Ray J. Was already making moves in Hollywood and the music industry. That sex tape didn't make him.

Yep, I totally agree with you on this !!....
Not true, at the release of that tape their level of fame was about the same, she was Paris Hilton's friend, he was brandy's little brother. He wasn't able to capitalize on it as well as she did but that tape gave them both fame and fortune.
Bruh what are you talking about? nobody remembers her as Paris Hilton's friend. People barely remembers Paris Hilton.
The tape came out in 2007.
Ray J
He signed to Elektra Records in 1995 and he began to record his debut album Everything You Want the same year. The album, released in March 1997, spawned the lead single "Let It Go", which appeared on the Set It Off soundtrack. "Let It Go" peaked at number 25 in the U.S. and number 11 in New Zealand. The second single peaked at number 54 on the U.S. R&B chart. In 1997, he was dropped from the label. In 1998, he appeared on the Dr. Dolittle soundtrack with the single "That's Why I Lie". He produced for toy company Mattel, putting together the music for several commercials and a few of the demos for his second record.[1]
Ray J recorded "Another Day in Paradise" with Brandy, which was a Top Ten success in Austria, UK, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Belgium, Norway, Ireland, the Netherlands and number 11 in Australia and France. The song was the lead single of the R&B/Hip Hop tribute Urban Renewal, in which he co-produced and performed songs. Norwood also worked with the Neptunes, Rodney Jerkins and Lil' Kim, and several other producers and singers for his second studio album This Ain't A Game. The album was recorded over 18 months, and was released on June 26, 2001, with Atlantic Records. The lead single "Wait A Minute" peaked at #30 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and #8 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. "Formal Invite" followed at #54 on the R&B chart.[4]
After a two-year break, Norwood returned to recording studios, adding the finishing touches on his third studio album Raydiation with help from producers such as Rodney Jerkins, Timbaland, R. Kelly, and Rob Egerton. A joint venture by Sanctuary Records and Ray-J's own label, independent Knockout Entertainment, the album was finally released on September 27, 2005, in North America after several delays, debuting at number forty-eight on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 18,321 copies in the first week. The album's lead single "One Wish" was a top 20 success in the US, UK, Ireland, and New Zealand. Raydiation eventually sold over 400,000 copies domestically.[5]
In 2005, Norwood joined the cast of UPN's One On One,[6] where he played the character D-Mack for the final season. On both shows, Ray's character was related to Brandy's (cousin/half-brother on Moesha, brother on One on One).
Kim Kardashian
In 1996, at the age of 16, Kardashian began working at Body, a local clothing store in Encino, California. She had recently totaled her car. Her father agreed to buy her a new one on condition that she agree to be responsible for paying all expenses related to any future damages.[30] Kardashian worked at Body for four years, assisting in the opening of the Calabasas location. In 2000, after entering into her first marriage, she resigned.[31]
By 2003, Kardashian was working as a personal stylist to the R&B singer and actress, Brandy, who is the sister of Ray J. Later, those siblings’ mother (and manager) Sonja Norwood, alleged that in 2004 she had authorized Kardashian to make "one and only one" purchase on her American Express credit card and that nevertheless Kardashian and her sisters Khloé and Kourtney had incurred over $120,000 in unauthorized charges to that card. Norwood also alleged that the bulk of the charges were attributable to purchases made at Kardashian's family-owned boutique in 2006 and 2007, after Kardashian was no longer employed by Norwood’s daughter. Norwood further alleged that, at the request of her children, she did not file criminal charges, instead presenting her allegations personally to Kardashian, and that Kardashian apologized and promised to repay the debt. In 2008, no payments having been forthcoming, Norwood filed a lawsuit. Kardashian has denied all these allegations. In 2009, the parties reportedly reached a confidential settlement, and the lawsuit was dismissed.[32][33]
Around 2003, Kardashian had also begun working as a stylist and assistant for the socialite Paris Hilton, a childhood friend of hers. She also appeared in several episodes of Hilton and Nicole Richie's reality show The Simple Life.[34][35] In 2005, Sheeraz Hasan, a PR strategist working with Hilton, met Kardashian and her mother Kris Jenner. Hasan stated in an interview with 20/20 that Kardashian was "ready to do whatever it takes" to create a successful brand. Rick Mendozza, a freelance photographer on assignment for the tabloid TMZ, stated in the same interview that, when Kardashian accompanied Hilton to Hyde, which was a Hollywood hotspot at the time, he continued to get assignments from tabloids to get photographs of Kardashian for the next three years.[36] In 2021, Kardashian said that Hilton "literally gave me a career. And I totally acknowledge that."[37]
We're talking about at the release of the tape, The Simple Life was still on TV so Paris Hilton was well known at the time. I was aware of Ray J's resume, doesn't change the fact that at the time of the release of the tape he was known more as Brandy's little brother than for anything he had done in his career.
Might be calling up their lawyer(s) as we speak...
@4:19 mark, for those that want to quickly get to the point.
Kris Jenner says she had nothing to do with the release of the sex tape. That was a lie since she was part of inking the deal with vivid for sales, distribution, etc. It was a move to imply that Ray J was the "bully", and Kim K was a deer in headlights.
That was the last straw for Ray J as, according to him, he put up with a lot of shit from the Kardashians that he was silent about.

Lmao bruh you reaching..... Ray J. Was well established in the Entertainment
industry as an actor and singer before that sex tape, that's one of the reasons people took notice of it and he Kardashian are still capitalizing off it to this day.
I find it funny how all these people think they're so influential. Just a bunch of hoes with wack ass products. I never understood how they made it.
Like the other guy said, chill out Kanye. Ray J was definitely famous already. Moesha, One Wish, Wait A Minute, and other songs came out way before that tape.
Naw man, well established means he was a household name. He had a few acting gigs but that was off his sisters fame.
Not comprehending a black man standing up and defending himself from a sadistic, evil cancerous whore of a white bitch while she and the family she coaches constantly tries to salt his name, ruining business deals, personal relationships ETC ETC is beta male shit
What does that mean? He was Ray J. He still Brandy lil brother, but he’s also Ray J. That sextape didn’t say Kim K and Brandy’s lil brother. Ray J was already a celebrity, who cares how he arrived, he was in the building already
She was brandi assistantDamn, I aint know none of this. A house cleaner?! She went from cleaning people house to... a billionaire from thieving & sucking dick on camera?
And here i am being loyal to my race (ethnicity) with darkskin natural hair chicks.
I need to rethink this Hotep shit
In other words, he was known as Brandy's little brother.
You and a buddy start a business, the business is huge success and you both make a lot of money. You're ambitious, you make moves to further increase your wealth far beyond your initial success, your buddy however, for whatever reason can't keep up with you. He comes up to you one day and says, all the success you have achieved was only possible because of the business you guys started together, so he feels he's entitled to the money in your other pockets. Do you agree?I hope they owe him royalties ...the whole dam family dam near billionaires cuz of that shit ..
they should cut him a check for the rest of his life.....
Ray J wasn't no super big name back then. He was mid level at best, but he was known enough for the sextape to be a messy situation. I feel like it became popular because of the actual perceived drama around the sextape, just as much as it was who was in it Plus sextapes at that time were usually some low res bullshit. Their shit was shot with a decent camera and decent angles.

I think because you used the word "Established" is what has people disputing you. Established for many means "Big Name Celebrity"
He's mad because he was basically called a liar by Kris Jenner when she had that lie detector test on that late night TV show.
If they had done that in the first place this certainly wouldn't have popped offI hope they owe him royalties ...the whole dam family dam near billionaires cuz of that shit ..
they should cut him a check for the rest of his life.....
Does anyone care how the tape got out?
Peep game: Kris Jenner is talented, she knows how to create a family of only victims. More recently, Kanye talked about her on his ig and then she responded to him: Kris went on about how she was 67 years old and can't stand all of his drama. The leader of Kardashian Klan knows how to throw the stone and then hide her hand. Kris wants the whole family to have a veneer of innocence so how the tape got out is crucial, they want to low-key blame Ray J.
