In A Black Mood Kim?

Keeping Up With The Kardashians star looks glum after it emerges her ex could block sex tape sale

With her infamous sex tape hitting the headlines again you would be forgiven for thinking newlywed Kim Kardashian would be feeling a tad red-faced.
And the reality TV star was keeping her head down as she left her hotel in the Gramercy Park area of New York yesterday covered in an all-black outfit.
The 30-year-old wore an unflattering combo of a dress covered by a sheer skirt, topped off with a sleeveless jacket and platform shoes.

Take me to the Kar: Kim leaves her hotel in New York yesterday as a battle over the rights to her sex tape looks set to erupt

Perhaps there was a hint of symbolism in the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star donning the universal colour of mourning, as it seems a feud is ready to erupt over ownership the rights to the video.
It has emerged her former boyfriend and 'co-star' RnB singer Ray J could block the 'mystery buyer' who is trying to pull the video that shot her to fame from the market

 

Supposedly the 30-year-old singer is fine with the sale of Kim K Superstar, as long as he gets a big cut of the sales.

However he also does not seem to mind if the world continues to see the sex tape that made his ex famous. 

 

Old flames: Kim and Ray became porn phenomenons because of their sex tape

His lawyer sent a letter to porn giant Vivid Entertainment's co-chairman Steve Hirsch making it clear that he has partial copyright ownership of the video.
The letter reads: 'Any attempts to transfer the copyright outside of these parameters will result in filing a motion with the courts to seen an injunction of any sale until Ray J's rights are protected.'

Water you going to do? The 30-year-old newlywed is still unsure about the private sale of her sex tape

Which means the singer wants to get paid. The tape is said to be worth $30 million.
Now a non-paid-for porn website has come forward and wants to buy the rights to the video from Hirsch - offering $5m - to put it online for for free.
A spokesman for the named website told TMZ it 'respectfully disagrees with Hirsch's more inflated value of the tape.
It has been said that Ray J has already financially benefited from prior sales of the tape, which has reportedly made millions, although his lawyer's letter says it's caused him nothing but pain.
'My client rarely has a conversation with industry professionals where the Tape has not been mentioned or questioned,' he wrote.
He added: 'No amount of money can relieve him from this nightmare.'
An undisclosed private party recently offered to buy all the rights to the 2007 amateur XXX video. 
The buyer has indicated that he or she wants to take said video off the market.
While Ray J and Kim, 30, still have ongoing drama, it's actually the reality star's new husband that had a recent run-in with her ex.
Kris Humphries, 26, and Ray J were on the same flight from Los Angeles to New Orleans last Sunday.

Although the two sat directly across from one another in first class, the NBA star pretended not to recognize his new wife's ex-boyfriend.

A source told the New York Post: 'Ray J said, "Come on, you know who I am. I just want to say congratulations."
Humphries eventual response: 'Oh yeah, yeah, I’m sorry I know who you are.'
