Candace Owens has made some incendiary statements regarding Kim Kardashian and her mother, Kris Jenner, accusing them of orchestrating the release of Kim’s infamous s.e.x t,.a.p.e with rapper Ray J for publicity. This commentary, which Owens delivered in a recent video, has stirred significant controversy and reignited discussions about the origins of Kardashian’s fame.
The s.e.x. t.a.p..e, originally leaked in 2007, played a crucial role in catapulting Kim Kardashian to stardom. At the time, the narrative was that the t.a.p.e. was leaked without Kardashian’s consent, positioning her as a victim of a personal invasion. This perception was bolstered by the public’s sympathy and her portrayal on the reality show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.”
Owens supports Ray J’s claims, describing Kardashian as a “prostitute” and Jenner as a “pimp,” asserting that their actions were driven by a desire for fame and wealth. She criticizes the mainstream media for continuously portraying Kardashian as a victim while allegedly ignoring the orchestrated nature of the t.a.p.e’s release.
To add fuel to the fire, Kris Jenner recently took a lie detector test on “The Late Late Show with James Corden,” where she denied involvement in releasing the t.a.p.e. The test results indicated she was telling the truth, but Owens and others have questioned the validity of the test and the qualifications of the individual administering it. Ray J has also dismissed the lie detector test as fake, claiming that it was a publicity stunt designed to maintain their innocence.
Owens’ remarks highlight the persistent fascination and skepticism surrounding the Kardashian-Jenner family’s rise to fame. The narrative of the s.e.x. t.a.p.e has evolved from one of victimhood to one of alleged manipulation and premeditation, challenging the public’s perception of Kim Kardashian and her mother.
This controversy underscores broader discussions about the nature of celebrity and the lengths to which individuals might go to achieve fame. It raises ethical questions about the exploitation of personal privacy for public gain and the role of media in shaping and perpetuating celebrity narratives.
While the truth behind the release of Kim Kardashian’s s.e.x. t.a.p.e remains a matter of debate, Owens’ comments and Ray J’s allegations have certainly reignited interest in the story, prompting many to re-examine the origins of one of the most famous families in the entertainment industry. The ongoing discourse will likely continue to evolve as more information and perspectives come to light.
