Kanye West appeared for the first time on the new Kardashians reality show on Hulu, and he was the hero of the day.
Kanye West comes to the rescue
The rap-fashion billionaire can be credited for saving his ex-wife Kim Kardashian from decades of shame after he managed to retrieve a hard drive containing unseen parts of her notorious sextape with Ray J.
The footage corroborates claims Ye made on Drink Champs back in November 2021.
In that interview with N.O.R.E and DJ EFN, West recalled flying back from a meeting with Ray J at a Los Angeles airport to gift Kim, who was in New York at the time, the remaining footage of the sextape, only for her to, shortly thereafter, participate in a Saturday Night Live (SNL) episode where she locked lips with her current boyfriend Pete Davidson.
In the Kardashians episode snippet, which you can watch below, Kim appears visibly distraught, as she informs her mother Kris and sister Khloe of Ye’s heroics.
She pulls the hard drive out of a leather case and observes its contents, before breaking down into tears.
“Kanye did this for me, but he also did this for my kids. I wanna shield them from as much as I can, and if I have the power to, or if Kanye has the power to, like, that is just the most important thing to me, and I’m just like, so emotional because of it and I just , it just means a lot to me,” she said.
