Kris Jenner accuses Ray J of 'publicly terrorizing' Kim Kardashian Kris Jenner has filed a legal declaration that outlines years of alleged mistreatment by Ray J, accusing the singer of publicly harassing and terrorizing her daughter Kim Kardashian to maintain relevance. The filing, submitted on February 23, 2026, in Los Angeles Superior Court, marks a significant escalation in the ongoing defamation lawsuit between the families. Jenner, who has never pursued a defamation case before, describes the situation as a “campaign of harassment” that has caused her daughter immense emotional distress. The declaration details how Ray J has allegedly used false press statements to draw attention to himself, creating a cycle of scrutiny for Kim and her family. Jenner claims that every public statement from Ray J has generated renewed media focus on her daughter, perpetuating a pattern of pain. She expressed deep anger and frustration, stating that the accusations could harm her business empire and the well-being of her family. The legal battle between the parties has been intense. Ray J initially sued Jenner and Kim in November 2025, alleging they violated a $6 million settlement agreement by releasing their sex tape. In response, Jenner and Kim filed a defamation lawsuit in October 2025, accusing Ray J of orchestrating a sustained campaign of harassment. The latest filing from Jenner adds a new layer to the dispute, framing Ray J’s actions as a deliberate effort to undermine Kim’s public image. Key allegations include Ray J’s claims during a September 2025 X livestream that federal agents were investigating Kris and Kim for crimes worse than those of Sean “Diddy” Combs. He also suggested in a documentary that racketeering charges could be appropriate against the family.#kim_kardashian #ray_j #los_angeles_superior_court #kris_jenner #x_livestream
Ray J Seeks Dismissal of Defamation Suit Over Comments About Kim Kardashian Attorneys for Ray J, the singer and reality TV personality, have asked a Los Angeles Superior Court judge to dismiss a defamation lawsuit filed by his former partner, Kim Kardashian. The motion, submitted on Tuesday, argues that the claims against Ray J are not legally valid under defamation laws. Ray J, whose real name is William Norwood, made controversial remarks during a Fox talk show special discussing the Sean “Diddy” Combs RICO trial. He criticized the Kardashian family, stating, “If you told me that the Kardashians were being charged for racketeering, I might believe it.” He later repeated this claim on a livestream, saying, “The federal RICO I’m about to drop on Kris and Kim is about to be crazy.” Norwood filed an anti-SLAPP motion, which aims to dismiss cases involving protected speech, arguing his statements were not factual assertions but rather “trolling” or hyperbole. He also claimed he relied on ChatGPT for research, citing a query where he asked the AI about filing a RICO lawsuit against the Kardashians. ChatGPT reportedly responded that his case was “strong.” Norwood also claimed he was unaware the livestream was being recorded. Defamation lawsuits require proof that the statements were false, factual, made with malice or reckless disregard, and caused harm. Kim Kardashian’s attorney, Bob Schwartz, argued that Norwood’s remarks were not rhetorical but repeated specific claims about potential legal actions. “He knew they were false,” Schwartz stated, noting Norwood had a history of legal disputes with the Kardashians. A voice on the livestream warned, “We’re live,” suggesting Norwood was aware of the recording. Norwood’s attorney, Jackson Trugman, defended the livestream as a casual conversation, not a news report.#kim_kardashian #ray_j #fox_talk_show #chatgpt #los_angeles_superior_court
