Kim Kardashian another public sex tape (Video)

Kim Kardashian

The Kardashian family pulled in a whooping $65 million in 2015 and it all began with Kim’s sex tape is she being taken advantage of?

While many may poke fun at the Kardashian family for their seemingly ubiquitous presence, this reality clan is getting the last laugh all the way to the bank! The Hollywood Reporter reports in their new issue that the family made a whooping $65 million in 2015, more than superstar actors Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise and Sandra Bullock COMBINED! That is some serious cash!

The family first gained notoriety through middle sister Kim‘s sex tape with Ray J in 2006, and seems to have almost thrived off it. While others might hide or shy away from such an incident, it seems like this clan saw a business opportunity!

The key to the success of the family is their involvement in numerous businesses beyond just their E! reality show. “These shows are a 30-minute commercial,” Khloe says in the interview, and she couldn’t be more right. Through the reality show we see the girls swimwear line, diet pills, brand endorsements and most every other part of their life.

Most remarkable perhaps is the fact that the entire Kardashian industry is run by mom Kris Jenner, a former airline stewardess. As the story points out, in a year where most everyone in the industry struggled to make money, she thrived. “Look at Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg,” Kris’ longtime friend Scott Sassa explains. “Two guys that didn’t finish college ended up billionaires. Sometimes just raw energy and intelligence wins out.”
