LOS ANGELES — Vivid Entertainment Group on Monday said that Kim Kardashian had agreed to a deal and has dropped her suit against the adult video company over the release of “Kim Kardashian Superstar.”
Vivid, which did not disclose terms of the deal, released the video last month on DVD and through download-to-DVD on AllAdultChannel.com, as well as an online stream at KimKSuperstar.com.
“Kim Kardashian Superstar” is a three-year-old sex video Kardashian made three years ago with then-boyfriend and recording artist William Ray Norwood Jr., also known as Ray J.
Kardashian, daughter of O.J. Simpson lawyer Robert Kardashian and a close friend of Paris Hilton, claimed she had not authorized release of the video.
Vivid claims it paid an unidentified third party for $1 million.
“We are pleased that Kim has dropped her legal action against us,” said Steven Hirsch, co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment. “We met with her several times and finally reached a financial arrangement that we both feel is fair.”
“We’ve always known we had the legal right to distribute this video which became an instant best-seller, and we’ve always want to work something out with Kim so she could share in the profits,” he said.
