Will Kendra Wilkinson's Sex Tape Sell?

Now that
Kendra Wilkinson stands to gain 50% of the profits from sales of an old sex tape being released by Vivid Entertainment, folks are buzzing that she could make millions of dollars off of the illicit tape. And by the looks of the early pre-sale numbers, Kendra might be rolling in dough soon enough.
TMZ reports that Kendra's sex tape has the highest pre-sale numbers of any celebrity tape Vivid Video -- the company that distributed sex tapes from Kim Kardashian and others -- has ever had.
Apparently, the fact that most of America has seen Kendra naked already isn't much of an issue when it comes to the sex tape. That's half the draw for the novelty celebrity sex tape consumer -- the surprise. There's no surprise here. The woman was in Playboy. But when it comes to porn, there is an added value in seeing a live action sex tape of someone who has become a household name.

"There's a big difference between seeing someone naked and seeing someone having sex. When a popular nude model decides to do hardcore, it's always a huge story; similarly, the leaked sex tape of UK topless model
Keeley Hazell was a pretty big deal," explains Fleshbot.com editor-in-chief Lux Alptraum. "So yeah, people will care. Judging by the traffic we're getting on the story, they already do care."
Kendra has a ready-made audience for the tape. Men may not be keen to watch her reality show on E!, but you can bet their wives have made them watch it. And the tape is expected to be quite juicy.
According to Star magazine, Kendra's sex tape partner-in-crime, her ex Justin Frye, "had a tripod in his bedroom for the camera and a stripper pole in the apartment." A source told the mag, "Kendra definitely was not shy about being in these tapes. There are tapes of Kendra in really compromising positions ... doing a lot of embarrassing things."
In addition to the profits, Kendra could still receive damages from the sale of the tape since she didn't approve the sale herself (though reports say she did try to shop it around a little for personal gain). The precedent is definitely there. After a third party sold a tape made by Kim Kardashian and then-boyfriend Ray J in 2007, the reality television star sued for invasion of privacy, and within three months settled for $5 million.
Paris Hilton reportedly received $400,000 up front from her sex tape with former boyfriend Rick Salomon, in addition to a share in the profits. '1 Night in Paris' is believed to have sold over 1 million copies. If Kendra's sex tape does as well as Paris,' the reality television star could stand to earn several million dollars. With that kind of cash on the line, it might be wise for Kendra to talk about the tape on her show. She is, after all, branding herself as Hollywood's hottest mom, keyword being hottest.
"She's started a new phase in her life as a wife and new mom, so there's no reason to visit her past in great detail on the show. However, if she quietly wants to sell the tape on her own, there's nothing wrong with that. After all it is her body," says Tamika Morrison of TWS Marketing and Communications.

Who, on this earth would want to see this 'woman' naked, and 'in action'? Who, would pay money to see this?
And why? Why would ANYONE want to see this thing, with, or with out clothes?
The thing is not pretty,, AT ALL. Shes plain nasty looking.
I guess, for some men,,, thats what they want?

Yeah... that IS what men want. She may have a butt-ugly face (in some people's eyes), but she's got one bangin' body, even if portions of it aren't 'real'.
But what I will also say is that this "sex tape scandal" was anythind but. It was purposly 'leaked' so that she would make the millions that she WILL eventually make from it.
You said it baby! Im a hetro guy and this women reminds me of a little troll doll I saw as a kid, and I didnt wanna play with THAT either LOL. A transvetite lebrachaun..plain an simple!
Maybe because her husband sucks at football and they need the money.
HATER!!!
HAHAHAHA jealous much?
Pam and Donna, please reread cutie Jo Piazza`s article more carefully. She said: Men may not be keen to watch her reality show on E!, but you can bet their wives have made them watch it. Capice? WOMEN allegedly want Kendra, which is why a WOMAN, Jo Piazza, is promoting Kendra`s porn for Aol. You may think it is a shame. But lots of WOMEN lust Kendra, wish they could be her, and buy the video. That is why sales are expected to be much more than they would be if only men were fools for her.
things that are wildly popular in this culture are generally base, dumbed-down, and have huge support of women. the smartest thing said on the thread is that bi-women will make it a best seller. the most popular pornstar of all time, jenna jameson is big w/bi women. this, and the fact that vivid knows how to polish up turds to dumb america better than any other porn outfit, will make it a bestseller..
Kendra is just kendry... but you referring to her a this "thing" makes you look bitter and jealous....
Everyone that wants to has already seen her hoohah a zillion times. Not interested. I hope she loses her shirt for being so stupid and greedy. But of course who hasn't seen those?

I DON'T KNOW WHY PEOPLE R SO JEALOUS. THIS GIRL IS VERY PRETTY AND SEXY. CAN'T W8
I am getting soooo very sick and tired of everybody's sex lives being put on tape, then, oops, the tape gets stolen, and put up for sale!! Nobody, and I mean NOBODY would want to see my husband and I doing the deed, not even if we had perfect bodies!! This stuff has to stop. Keep your sex lives TO YOURSELF!!! ( It is even grosser when your children can see the videos of their parents when they grow up doing the nasty which is NASTY for your children )

Ok I am replying to you, but I am talking to everyone that is hating about this.... First off, no, the only reason no one wants to see you and ur husband do the deed is because ur not famous and the only people you know are family and friends! If you had a perfect bodies then yes, there would be alot of STRANGERS that would want to watch you two. And trust me, kendra has ALOT of strangers who find her to be extremely sexy. And second it's not like she did the tape now, it was done a long time ago, so ppls needs to get over it, and WHY NOT make a profit off of it, if the tape is going to be put everywhere anyways!? If she is going to go thru' this she might as well make some money! duh!
If you guys had perfect bodies, I'D watch you two screw for sure.
Hank got himself a nice girl.haaaaaaaaaaa.

More realistically, Beth, she`ll probably want her son to do exactly the same thing his alleged daddy did, video tape himself having sex with her for money so other men can see his private parts. It makes money! That is the only morality which matters to some folks.
Well, if you don't have anything between your ears, it's nice to know there's something between one's legs.
