Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner Sue Ray J for Defamation Over Federal Investigation Claims

Kim Kardashian and her mother, Kris Jenner, have filed a defamation lawsuit against Kim's ex-boyfriend Ray J, accusing him of falsely claiming that they are under federal investigation and facing racketeering charges. The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, asserts that Ray J's statements are part of a long-standing campaign of harassment and defamation aimed at exploiting their fame for personal gain. Ray J made these claims during a TMZ special and a widely viewed livestream, alleging imminent federal indictments without providing any evidence. The Kardashian-Jenner legal team insists no such investigations or criminal proceedings exist and that Ray J's accusations have caused significant reputational and financial damage. Their attorney, Alex Spiro, highlighted Ray J's inability to move past his relationship with Kim Kardashian, which ended over 20 years ago, and his ongoing attempts to attach himself to their prominence. This legal action is a direct and aggressive response to what they characterize as baseless and defamatory allegations.
