Ray J Sparks Debate With Bold Claim About Sleeping With 12,500 Women
By Paul Joseph
US singer and reality TV personality Ray J has ignited widespread reactions after making a striking claim about his past relationships, saying the number of women he has been involved with has reached 12,500.
Speaking during a recent interview with former NFL quarterback Cam Newton, the 45-year-old entertainer born William Ray Norwood Jr. revisited an earlier statement from November 2025, when he said the figure stood at 1,000.
In the latest discussion, however, Ray J dramatically revised the number upward.
“I had a party when I reached 10,000,” he said. “We had a celebration to mark my 10,000th. It’s a little bit more now.”
He emphasized that the figure referred to individual partners rather than the number of encounters.
“It’s not about how many times it’s about different people,” he explained. “It’s at 12,500 now.”
The singer also claimed that during tours, his lifestyle could involve meeting multiple partners daily, adding that others in the industry may have even higher numbers.
The comments have triggered mixed reactions across social media, with many questioning the accuracy of the claims, while others criticised the openness of the disclosure.
The remarks come months after Ray J revealed health concerns earlier in the year, including a hospitalisation linked to pneumonia and heart-related complications.
