\n\tRay J is doubling down on his assertion that Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner have engaged in racketeering, saying in a new court filing that their family business empire is \u201ca criminal enterprise akin to the mob.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Friday (Dec. 12) filing is the latest salvo in a salacious legal battle that began with Kardashian and Jenner suing Ray J for defamation after they say he falsely talked about them being investigated for racketeering on both a TMZ broadcast and Twitch livestream. The R&B singer countersued, accusing Kardashian of intentionally leaking their infamous sex tape back in 2007.<\/p>\n

\n\tRay J (William Ray Norwood Jr.) is now asking a Los Angeles judge to throw out the defamation allegations under California\u2019s anti-SLAPP law, which bars meritless litigation that tramples on free speech. The singer says the claims will fail because, at the time he went on TMZ and Twitch, he genuinely believed Kardashian and Jenner had violated the Racketeer Influence and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cTo me, Kim and Kris have repeatedly engaged in a criminal enterprise and racketeering activity, violating RICO over and over again. I have no doubt about that,\u201d writes Ray J in his Friday declaration. \u201cEvery time someone does something the Kardashians don\u2019t like, they use their money and power to silence them. The Kardashian enterprise has made billions of dollars off their racketeering activities.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tRay J\u2019s filing then makes a very 2025 assertion: that his beliefs about the Kardashian family\u2019s supposed racketeering activity were confirmed by ChatGPT. He says that when prompted with his claims against the family \u2014 including that they lied about the 2007 sex tape and extorted him into signing a fraudulent settlement agreement \u2014 the AI chatbot responded that he had a \u201cstrong\u201d case for RICO.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis unusual argument is a creative one for clearing the \u201cactual malice\u201d threshold of libel law, in which a plaintiff must show that their defamer lied on purpose. AI chatbots like ChatGPT have often been criticized for being overly sycophantic, meaning they tend to echo back what you tell them. This can have the effect of entrenching false beliefs, which could theoretically make someone like Ray J believe they were telling the truth, even if a statement was actually specious.<\/p>\n

\n\tRay J\u2019s Friday court filing also argues that regardless of whether he really believed what he said on TMZ and Twitch, the defamation claims should be thrown out because the broadcasts were not intended to be \u201ctaken seriously or at face value.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cNorwood is also widely known as a successful \u2018troll\u2019 \u2014 a person who engages in provocation, insults people and talks a lot of \u2018smack\u2019 online,\u201d writes his attorney, Howard King<\/strong>, in the anti-SLAPP motion. \u201c\u2018Trolling\u2019 is not slander; rather, it is a skill that streamers (like Norwood) wield to generate public discourse and create chaos which, in turn, increases viewership, online following, popularity and influence.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tReps for Kardashian and Jenner did not immediately return a request for comment on Monday (Dec. 15). Their lawyer, Alex Spiro<\/strong>, has previously written in court filings that Ray J\u2019s RICO claims are \u201cblatantly false\u201d and aimed merely at \u201creviving his own fading notoriety.\u201d<\/p>\n
