After leaked celebrity sex tape with Ray J helped her face become a regular in tabloids and the media, Kim Kardashian is now rumored to appear in an upcoming issue of Playboy.
The rumors are true. BallerStatus.com has confirmed with a source close to the celebrity socialite that she will definitely appear in an upcoming issue of the popular men's magazine, but it is a non-nude spread.
The issue Kim will appear in was unclear at press time.
Kardashian rose to fame, largely due to her friendship with Paris Hilton, but she became an internet and tabloid attraction due to a stolen sex tape featuring herself and at-the-time-boyfriend Ray J, brother of singer/actress Brandy.
This was the first public acknowledgement of the existence of the video, which she had previously denied.
Despite the pending lawsuit, adult retailers started offering the tape for pre-order in February. Vivid made the sex tape available online in March. In April, Kim settled with Vivid Entertainment (see "Kim Kardashian Drops Lawsuit Against Vivid Entertainment Regarding Sex Tape"), who paid $1 million to an unidentified source for the video, and dropped her suit for a reported $5 million.
On Saturday (July 20), Kim Kardashian will be hosting at La Direct magazine party in Los Angeles, celebrating her June cover of the mag.
