Last week, Kim Kardashian had the media in a frenzy when she unveiled her cover photo for Paper Magazine. Kim went completely naked for the cover, revealing both full-frontal and rear nudity. While reports show the reality star didn't receive a major lump sum for the magazine shoot, her ex-boyfriend Ray J seems to have made a hefty profit from it. Vivid Entertainment recently told TMZ sales for Kim and Ray J's sex tape, Kim K Superstar, have skyrocketed since the release of her magazine which means more money in Ray J's pockets.
A source from Vivid Entertainment says sales and views for the sex tape have escalated so much that Brandy's little brother will receive $50,000 for last week alone. President of Vivid Entertainment, Steve Hirsch, told TMZ the instantaneous spike has made Kim K Superstar the highest selling celebrity sex tape of all time. The video took the spot once held by Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee.
Remember when Ray J offered some of the profits he was making from the sex tape to Kim and Kanye as a wedding gift? Well, this recent increase in revenue probably won't be shared with anyone but his accountant.
