Your support makes all the difference.Fresh from "breaking the internet", Kim Kardashian has broken Pornhub, with the porn site revealing that her sex tape with ex-boyfriend Ray J is its most popular video with well over 93 million views.
Porn might be a well-oiled (literally) multi-million dollar machine, but its number one video was never intended to be seen by more than one person.
In its surprisingly interesting Insights blog (SFW), Pornhub's statisticians revealed that the reality TV star's "leaked" sex tape, eventually uploaded by Vivid Entertainment, eclipses all other porn videos.
Kim Kardashian is also its number one porn star, being the most-searched for woman by far.
Her marriage to Kanye West only spurred on the video's popularity, while her recent Paper magazine nude cover caused searches to increase by 558% worldwide.
