Kim Kardashian & Kris Jenner Sue Ray J For Defamation Over Racketeering Claims
Written by b87fm on 10/02/2025
Ray J is facing a major legal battle after Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner filed a defamation lawsuit against him, marking the first time the famous family has taken such legal action.
According to PEOPLE, the suit centers on Ray J’s recent remarks suggesting that Kardashian and Jenner were under federal investigation for racketeering. The claims were made during TMZ’s Tubi documentary United States vs. Sean Combs and amplified during one of Ray J’s livestreams to “millions of social media followers.”
Attorney Alex Spiro, representing Kardashian and Jenner, called the comments both false and dangerous.
“Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian have never brought a defamation claim before nor have they been distracted by noise. But this false and serious allegation left no choice,” he said in a statement.
In the filing, Spiro accused Ray J of engaging in a “sustained campaign of harassment and defamation” for over two decades.
“Unable to accept the end of his fleeting relationship with Ms. Kardashian over twenty years ago, Ray J has repeatedly sought to attach himself to Plaintiffs’ names and exploit their prominence for personal gain,” the lawsuit reads.
Spiro further dismissed the allegations, stating:
“Ray J’s public statements are blatantly false. No such federal investigation exists; no law enforcement agency has initiated any criminal proceedings or investigations related to racketeering charges against Ms. Kardashian or Ms. Jenner; and no credible evidence whatsoever supports these inflammatory allegations.”
The Kardashians’ move to sue underscores how seriously they view Ray J’s latest remarks. The two have had a long and messy history since their relationship ended in 2005. Just two years later, their infamous sex tape leaked and went viral, cementing one of pop culture’s most notorious scandals.
This time, though, the family isn’t brushing it off — they’re taking it to court.
