Ray J has claimed he slept with as many as 12,500 women, making the remark on Cam Newton’s Funky Friday podcast — a statement that has sparked widespread debate online and it’s turning heads for all the wrong reasons.
According to Ray J, the milestone wasn’t just a number — it was a celebration. He claims that after reaching 10,000 partners, a party was held at an adult entertainment venue (Booby Trap) complete with hundreds of attendees he said had been part of his past.
“It was a massive parade,” he told Newton, describing the event in detail. Pressed on whether he meant different individuals, Ray J doubled down, insisting the figure referred to unique partners before later revising the total upward.
A claim that raises eyebrows
The conversation quickly turned to the maths behind the statement — and that’s where things became even more questionable.
Newton pointed out that such a number would require averaging more than one partner per day over three decades. Ray J’s response? The pace, he suggested, varied depending on circumstances — particularly while touring, when he claimed the numbers were significantly higher.
Even in the world of celebrity exaggeration, the figures have drawn scepticism online, with many questioning whether the claims are believable.
Not the first time he’s said it
This isn’t the first occasion the One Wish singer has floated the claim. During a 2025 appearance on the BagFuel podcast, he similarly spoke about surpassing 10,000 partners, again referencing a celebratory event to mark the milestone.
At the time, he estimated the figure was closer to 11,900 — though he admitted uncertainty around the exact number.
A shift in tone
Despite the bravado, Ray J suggested his lifestyle has slowed in recent years.
“I’ve got a limit now,” he said, hinting that age has brought a change in perspective.
The comments arrive amid a series of more reflective — and at times concerning — public statements. Earlier this year, the singer sparked alarm among fans after suggesting he may not have long to live, referencing 2027 in a cryptic social media video.
In that same clip, he spoke about providing for his family, including his children and estranged wife, and made unusual remarks about how he wished to be remembered.
A long history in the spotlight
Ray J has remained a familiar figure in entertainment circles for decades, both for his music career and high-profile relationships — most notably with Kim Kardashian.
While his latest claims have generated headlines, they also highlight the often-blurred line between personal branding, shock value and reality in celebrity culture.
Whether taken seriously or not, the remarks have certainly achieved one thing: keeping Ray J firmly in the public conversation.
