Kanye West is currently facing allegations of paying $250,000 to suppress a sex tape allegedly made with a prostitute in 2012.
Former Hollywood fixer Kevin Blatt, known for distributing Paris Hilton’s 2001 sex tape, recently appeared in an Instagram post featuring a purported screenshot of the tape.
Blatt’s post on Instagram, where he accused West of a subpar performance during an encounter in Las Vegas while under the influence of MDMA, also included derogatory remarks about West’s physical attributes and suggested the rapper should focus on himself.

TMZ reported that in 2012 when West started dating Kim Kardashian, he actively offered two sex tapes to the highest bidders. This period has resurfaced as West faces new personal turmoil, including his impending divorce from Bianca Censori shortly after her controversial Grammy appearance. Rumours suggest that the couple, who married in December 2022, have agreed on a $5 million settlement following their brief marriage.
Blatt, who has labelled himself as the “Scandal Specialist,” claims to have witnessed a wide array of celebrity scandals, many of which he cannot disclose due to non-disclosure agreements. His past comments to The Sun highlight his unique perspective on celebrity culture, tainted by the secrets he holds.
The unfolding drama around West continues as he remains out of the public eye, with reports suggesting he might return to Tokyo, where he previously spent an extended period. Meanwhile, Censori’s discomfort during their Grammy appearance, where West reportedly asked her to drop her fur coat to “make a scene,” adds another layer to the ongoing saga. West later reflected on the event in a post on X, expressing admiration for his wife’s courage and attributes.
This incident is a stark reminder of the persisting intersection of celebrity personal lives with public consumption and the implications of unregulated actions within the entertainment industry. As the situation develops, it underscores the need for a balanced understanding of privacy, consent, and the ethical responsibilities of those in the public eye.
