Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are suing YouTube co-founder
The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians‘
star and the rapper claim the billionaire
‘manipulated’ his way into AT and T Park
in San Francisco and released
unauthorised footage of the moment the
‘New Slaves‘ hitmaker proposed to her
on her 33rd birthday on October 21.
According to court documents, obtained
by TMZ, the couple is accusing Hurley of
scheming to post the video of the intimate
moment on his new Internet venture,
MixBit.
Their lawyer Eric George also trashes the
entrepreneur, claiming Hurley is desperate
to find a ‘second act’ because two of his
other businesses have flopped since he
sold YouTube for $1.65 billion. It was
previously reported that Kanye invited
Kim’s close family and friends, along with
several well known Silicon Valley founders
to watch his surprise proposal, but Hurley
wasn’t invited and they only let him stay
after he signed a confidentiality
agreement.
They attached a picture of him holding the
agreement to the lawsuit, which also
states: ‘Hurley proceeded to try to turn the
event into one starring himself,
broadcasting the images he knew were
the exclusive property rights of someone
else.‘
The couple is suing Hurley for unspecified
damages and claim the footage was
intended to be shown on MC Cable
Television, which is an arm of Bunim/
Murray and E!, which produces and
broadcasts Kim’s reality show.
