Kris Jenner sued for conning video game developer

Kris Jenner has been dragged to court by a video game developer for jacking his Kardashian Hollywood video game idea and dumping him in the end. According to TMZ, the Kungu Fu Factory developer is claiming that Kris’s agent led him on until they were able to steal their idea.
Kris Jenner and her agent allegedly strung along videogame developers just long enough to rip off their ideas and create the cash cow known as “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” … according to a new lawsuit.

Kung Fu Factory, the developer, says it was contacted through a rep for the Kardashians in 2011, saying they were interested in creating a Kardashian-themed videogame. According to the suit, obtained by TMZ, Kung Fu says it did the deed … presenting a proposal for the game to Kris’ rep.

Kung Fu says its version was very specific … including everything from how Kim, Khloe and Kourtney’s characters would look, to how the game would be played. However, months went by without any final decision from the Jenner/Kardashian camp … until Kung Fu finally heard the game talks were “dead.”

The videogame jocks say “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” — released in 2014 — has many similarities to their copyrighted proposal.

Kung Fu wants unspecified damages, including profits from the game … which are huge. Forbes estimated it would haul in $200 million in its first year alone!

Kris’ agent mentioned in the suit is named Brian Siegrest — who sounds like the evil twin of Ryan Seacrest, who of course is executive producer of ‘KUWTK.’”
