Kris Humphries was stone-faced while seated next to his new wife Kim Kardashian’s ex-boyfriend, Ray J, on a Delta Air Lines flight from Los Angeles to New Orleans, the New York Post reported Thursday.

Humphries, who boarded the Sunday flight in Minneapolis, was in an aisle seat across from the singer in first class, sources said. He sat there for a few minutes before moving to a seat in front of Ray J.

After minutes of “awkward silence,” Ray J walked up to Humphries’ seat to congratulate him on his recent marriage to Kardashian, but the basketball player reportedly acted like he did not recognize him.

"Ray J said, ‘Come on, you know who I am. I just want to say congratulations.’ Then Kris, realizing he was cornered, said, ‘Oh yeah, yeah, I’m sorry I know who you are.’”

Meanwhile, a mystery buyer was reportedly offering Vivid Entertainment a large sum to buy Kardashian’s sex tape with the singer in order to take it off the market.

Kardashian initially fought to keep the sex video from going public in 2007 but ended up settling with its distributor for an undisclosed sum that reportedly included a cut of future sales.

Some suspect that the buyer might be a member of either the Kardashian or Humphries families who may not want their relatives to see the tape.

Humphries’ representative did not respond to a request for comment. Ray J’s representative declined to comment.
