Despite unleashing an arsenal of legal tactics, Kim Kardashian has been unable to stop Vivid Entertainment from going forward with a March 21 release of “Kim Kardashian Superstar” — the sex video she made with ex-boyfriend, Ray-J.

Steven Hirsch, Co-Chairman of Vivid, says:

“I met with Kim yesterday and unfortunately, we didn’t even come close to reaching an agreement. We will now immediately move forward with the release.”

Kim filed suit last month and Vivid announced that they would temporarily halt production. The company feels confident that they have a legal right to distribute the DVD of the video. They paid an unidentified third party (that’s celebrity speak for Ray J) $1 million for rights to the tape, which was made three years ago.

Vivid promises a new preview clip will be available next week on www.kimksuperstar.com.

Steve continues: “Kim has all of the qualities that we look for in a Vivid Girl. She’s both beautiful and well-spoken which is a rare combination. In fact, if she was a Vivid Girl I might have cast her as ‘Debbie’ in our ‘Debbie Does Dallas…Again’ TV series which debuts [Friday] night at 11pm on Showtime.”

A rep for Kardashian confirms Kim and her manager met briefly with Vivid, but says nothing was resolved. She says Kim will “continue to vigorously defend and protect her legal rights” and adds that her lawsuit against Vivid is still very much active.

Vivid Entertainment has agreed to Ray-J’s controversial sex tape has agreed to halt distribution of the controversial video, this development comes one week after Kim filed a lawsuit to stop the release of the coveated footage.

Vivid Entertainment says that “Kim Superstar” will go on “temporary hold,” while they attempt to work things out with Kardashian in person:

“We feel that it is most important that we have an opportunity to meet with Ms. Kardashian as soon as possible. We have reached out to her to try and set up a meeting.”

Vivid claims they purchased the tape from a third party for a whopping $1 million, and firmly believe that they have a “legal right to distribute the video.

The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Wednesday

The vid, entitled “Kim K Superstar,” is set to hit stores next Tuesday.

“This tape, which was made three years ago, and was meant to be something private between myself and my then boyfriend is extremely hurtful not only to me, but to my family as well. I am filing legal charges against the company who is distributing this tape since it is being sold completely without my permission or consent.”

Vivid Entertainment Co-Chairman, Steven Hirsch, says, “We are very confident in our legal position.”

Wild’N Out star Nick Cannon claims that he hasn’t seen the infamous recorded romp of his girl Kim Kardashian getting her back blown out by R&B recording artist Ray J in spite of the fact that the tape has set the World Wide Web ablaze.

Nick was spotted just after the Justin Timberlake concert on Friday night. The paparrazi asked N.C “Have you seen it?” To which Nick responded “I ain’t seen it.”

He also put to rest any rumors that he has a sex tape of his own-”I don’t have one.”

The March 2007 Complex Mag covergirl and Kim Kardashian Superstar sex tape star Kim Kardashian hosted this weekend’s House of Hype Pre-Grammy Party at Hollywood’s Roosevelt Hotel where the socialite had her sex tape co-star and ex-BF Ray J kicked out by security.

Ray J arrived at the bash driving a brand-new $300,000 Lambourghini convertible-when KK learned he had arrived she bolted to hide in a poolside cabana.

“She refused to come out until he left… She demanded security remove him, and they did,” a snitching source at the party reports. The Hilton, Ashlee Simpson, Fall Out Boy frontman Pete Wentz, Brooke Hogan, John Legend, and other A-listers were on hand for the soiree.

Kim, who ironically came to the party in an all-white number, also has some words about the sex tape that will be hitting the shelves of adult bookstores across the country on Feb. 28th:

“It’s really hurtful to me and my family and, contrary to rumors, it’s all happening against my will,” the twenty-six year old, who formerly said that she never made any sex tapes with Brandy’s baby bro, said. “I’m sure any woman can understand what it feels like to be betrayed like this. I’m exploring all my legal options.”

K.K claims to have had “nothing to do” with the release of the tape, which is actually a collection of sex tapes made while Kim was still a couple with Brandy’s baby brother.

Kim is “hurt and embarrassed” about the prospect of the tape, acquired by Vivid Entertainment for a reported $1 million, being offered for retail sale.

K.K will release press releases about case developments to prevent a planned DVD release. She plans to take legal action as soon as today.

The now infamous Ray J-Kim Kardashian sex tape will hit the Net and the shelves of adult DVD retailers on February 28th-without the equally infamous golden shower scene.

Steven Hirsch is co-chairman of Vivid Entertainment, the company that dropped a cool million to purchase the rights to the sex tape. S.H claims that the sex tape that they received and are currently marketing does not contain any water sports.

Kim K. has not been involved in the sale of the tape:

“We have tried to contact Kim,” he says, “The tape can generate a tremendous amount of interest and we would like her to take part in that.”

Soon Paris Hilton’s BFF will be following in her diseased and poorly dressed footsteps. Adult film giant Vivid Video purchases the Ray J/Kim Kardashian sex tape for one millon dollars on Tuesday and promises to have the golden shower filled fun on store shelves by February 28th.

Vivid co-chairman Steven Hirsch told New York City sources:

“We are comfortable that we have the legal right to distribute this video . . . I’ve seen the video and it’s really great. It has over 30 minutes of explicit sex that fans of erotica will find very appealing . . . Apparently, the video was shot by Ray J about three years ago when he and Kim were in a relationship. Viewers will definitely get their money’s worth.”

Ray J couldn’t be reached for comment, but the news came as a shock to K.K’s reps:

“Are you fucking me? Kim is going to die . . . are you sure?” Later, he added, “She will be taking legal action against anyone responsible for this. She was unaware of this and caught completely off-guard.”

After weeks of adamantly denying that she let Brandy’s baby brother piss on her on video, Paris Hilton’s BFF Kim Kardashian has come clean-more than one sex tape exist.

Sal Masekela of E!’s “Daily 10″ – and admitted there is more than one.

“Have there been tapes? Maybe, yes,” she confessed. “But are they for sale? No. Not for sale. That’s our business.”

K.K hit up the New York Daily News to adamantly deny that she is trying to peddle the footage of her golden shower courtesy of “One Wish” singer Ray-J:

I’m not poor; I’m not desperate. I would never attempt to sell a tape. It would humiliate me and ruin my family. I have two successful businesses, and I don’t need the money.”

Sugar DVDs and Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis have reportedly purchased the tape, which has yet to be seen by the public:

“Sugar DVD are getting so much press and so many Web site hits out of this, it’s the best free publicity they could hope for,” Kim lamented.

Kim, who has been romantically linked to the Game, was supposedly dumped by MTV star Nick Cannon last month.

New York City sources are snitching that R&B “singer” Ray-J (baby brother of singer Brandy) may have a sex tape for sale.

Ray-J is supposedly trying to market a sex tape featuring Nicole Ritchie’s replacement as Paris Hilton’s best friend, Kim Kardashian, as the star. Kim’s Camp is screaming that no sex tape exists. Ray-J briefly dated Kim, who has also been romantically linked to Nick Cannon and The Game.

“It’s your typical graphic sex tape,” says the snitch alleged to have taped it. But he does dish that “there’s a golden shower at the end…”
