“Kim Kardashian is in a panic over Kanye West’s rumored sex tapes — and sources say the alleged pornographic video is already tearing the couple apart,” reports OK! magazine.
According to the tabloid, Kardashian was “ambushed” by the reports of West allegedly having shot hardcore home movies, and the “swarm of negative publicity” is supposedly “truly gnawing” at her.
“You’d think Kim would be somewhat cool about this since she has a sex tape of her own with her then-beau Ray J, but she’s so not,” a “very close pal” explains to the mag. “She’s totally freaking out since she found out. She and Kanye have been fighting viciously over it.”
The OK! source says, “She’s worked so hard to distance herself from her own sex tape. She feels like now they’re going to be known as the sex tape couple, instead of the high fashion couple she’s been shaping them to be.”
West, meanwhile, is purportedly upset about Kardashian’s attitude, leading to arguments and what OK! calls “their first real crisis as a couple.”
Of course, none of this makes any sense.

West’s alleged sex tapes have not led to much “negative publicity,” and Kardashian’s supposed “humiliation” over the rumors is pure tabloid exaggeration.
While Kardashian may have mixed feelings about her own sex tape legacy, she’s never pretended it didn’t happen, and it hasn’t stopped her from creating a merchandise and reality TV empire worth millions.
West even boasts about Kardashian’s “home movie” in his song “Clique,” and the reference had no impact whatsoever on their relationship.
And it’s amusing to see OK! reaching for any kind of big “crisis” scoop about the couple after months of sloppy, wrong reporting.
Last May, the tabloid published a false cover story about Kardashian having a baby, following it up with bogus reports about West allegedly spying on Kardashian, and Kardashian being set to dump him for someone with “more fame.”
OK! got those stories wrong, and this newest one is more of the same speculative nonsense.
A source close to the situation tells Gossip Cop that Kardashian and West are absolutely not fighting over his sex tape rumors, calling the tab report “untrue.”
