Kanye West has responded to the allegation that he paid $250,000 to prevent his sex tape with an unidentified woman from coming out.
The allegations were made by former adult entertainment marketer Kevin Blatt, who took to Instagram to slam the "Donda" rapper following his recent spate of hateful remarks toward Jewish people.
It comes amid reports that Kanye West and Bianca Censori have split following their scandalous appearance on the Grammys red carpet.
Kanye West Responds To Sex Tape Scandal

West has seemingly addressed reports that he paid a substantial amount of money to prevent an alleged sex tape from going public.
Responding to a post that shared screenshots of reports he paid to keep the sex tape out of the market, West wrote, "THAT WAS A FUN NIGHT CANT WAIT TO SEE IT AGAIN," per Page Six.
The allegations surfaced after Kevin Blatt, who worked in the online adult entertainment industry, took to his Instagram story to share a shirtless photo of the "Carnival" rapper in what appears to be a hotel room.
"Remember that sex tape I helped take off the market for you in 2012 with that hooker in Vegas?" Blatt wrote.
"Yeah, this JEW didn't forget what a horrible performance and small [eggplant emoji] u had on MDMA," he continued. "Hey, why don't you GO F-ck Your favorite person in the world YOURSELF."
The Sex Tape Broker Slammed The Rapper's Video As 'Embarrassing'

Blatt's claims follow West's recent spate of antisemitic remarks, among which he called himself a "Nazi" and wrote said, "Jews are arrogant."
Blatt, who is Jewish, told Page Six that he hoped to teach West "a lesson" with his Instagram attack after sharing that the said sex tape was "embarrassing."
In an interview with the U.S. Sun, the former sex tape broker explained that he's only coming out now with the claims because of West's recent attack on Jews, saying he wanted the "Vultures 1" rapper to remember how Jewish people have come through for him before.
He claimed that if he had not helped West prevent it from going out, "people would have laughed at him" because he "is out of it and it's embarrassing as hell."
The Sex Tape Would Have 'Destroyed' Kanye West's 'Loverboy Image'

Blatt further noted that West's image as a "loverboy" would have been affected by the release of the sex tape at the time.
"Let's just say that any loverboy image he thought he might have had would have been completely destroyed," he said. "I'm not trying to make money out of this now, that's not what this is about."
Blatt added, "The only reason I am talking about it now is because I want Kanye to realize that his actions have consequences – I don't want him to forget how many Jewish people - like me - have helped him over the course of his career."
"He is surrounded by Jewish people every day, and they have helped him reach the top of his game – and then he's going to say these disgusting things?" he explained.
The Video Could Have Affected Kanye West's Chances Of Marrying Kim Kardashian

Blatt explained that the video had been tossed around during the closing stages of 2012, and if he'd not stepped in to help West, his chances of marrying ex-wife Kim Kardashian were pretty slim.
West started dating Kardashian earlier that year before she announced that she was expecting his baby in December, around the time the video hit the market.
"The tape was being shopped around in late 2012 and that was when I got involved," Blatt told The U.S. Sun. "Kanye had the video saved on his laptop and I found out later his cousin had stolen the laptop and that is what he raps about on No More Parties In LA."
He continued, "At the time I did not know that. The tape was being shopped around, Kanye did not want the tape getting out there and I helped make sure it didn't, like I have helped many celebrities do. That's how Hollywood works and I made a decent living out of sex tapes for a while."
"Kanye didn't want it getting out because he was with Kim Kardashian at the time. I don't think she would have married him if she'd seen it because it was with an escort and there were drugs involved – it wasn't the best look," Blatt added.
Have Kanye West And Bianca Censori Split?

It comes amid reports that West and his wife Bianca Censori have called time on their marriage following a scandalous appearance at the Grammys.
According to Page Six, a source shared that Censori was "exhausted" from West's antisemitic comments and that his decision to sell swastika merchandise on his website was the breaking point.
"She's been an awesome wife and awesome collaborator, she's been through so many crazy moments, but this one may be unsurvivable," the insider said.
The insider explained that the former Yeezy architect was "upset" that West had referred to himself as a "Nazi" and also claimed to "love Hitler."
"To embrace Hitler is a Satanic move," the source explained, adding that the situation has become "so extreme" for her as she's unsure how to bring the rapper back "to earth" but knows she "has to move on."
However, since reports of divorce made headlines, West and Censori's rep has shut it down, branding it "tabloid rumors."
