Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner have hit back at Ray J’s new bombshell lawsuit against them, which came on the heels of them filing a defamation lawsuit against him.
Alex Spiro — the lawyer for Kardashian and Jenner — called the “One Wish” singer’s lawsuit “frivolous” in a statement to Page Six on Thursday.
“After realizing he is losing the case and losing his way, this disjointed rambling distraction is not intimidating anyone,” Spiro said. “Ray J will lose this frivolous case too.”
Ray J’s new lawsuit doubles down on his claims that Kardashian and Jenner have been lying about the infamous 2007 sex tape leak for two decades. The singer alleges the mother-daughter duo were behind his and Kardashian’s sex tape — which he claims was filmed consensually in 2003 when they were dating — getting leaked.
Ray J, 44, claimed in the filing obtained by Page Six that he and Kardashian, 45, discussed releasing the tape in 2006, and that she allegedly told him that her mother should be in charge of releasing it.
He claimed that Jenner and Kardashian are now “furious” that he “no longer wants to play along with their tall tale.”
Ray J, whose real name is William Ray Norwood Jr., also hit back at Kardashian and Jenner’s lawsuit against him for defamation, which they filed in October.
“Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner’s lawsuit is not about defamation — it’s about publicity, power, and punishment,” he claimed in the court docs.

Kardashian and Jenner filed the defamation lawsuit shortly after Ray J made the shocking claim that he’s working with the feds to build a RICO case against them.
“The federal RICO I’m about to drop on Kris and Kim is about to be crazy,” the singer told Chrisean Rock during a livestream that circulated on X.
“I’m talking about, I’m on the news every day. I’m gonna say a lot of s–t. Anybody that is cool with Kim, they need to tell her now, the feds is coming. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
He added, “It’s worse than Diddy.”
But in Kardashian and Jenner’s lawsuit against Ray J, they stated that “no such federal investigation exists.”
“No law enforcement agency has initiated any criminal proceedings or investigations related to racketeering charged against Ms. Kardashian or Ms. Jenner and no credible evidence whatsoever supports these inflammatory allegations,” their lawsuit reads, which was obtained by Page Six.
“Unable to accept the end of his fleeting relationship with Ms. Kardashian over 20 years ago, Ray J has repeatedly sought to attach himself to Plaintiffs’ names and exploit their prominence for personal gain,” the lawsuit also states.
