Lamar Odom became distressed at the Love Ranch because of ‘KUWTK’

wenn5834119

Throughout this morning, the news about Lamar Odom has been all over the place. I actually believe that TMZ is trying to stay on top of the breaking news. If and when TMZ breaks something about Lamar’s condition, we will update. For now, right at this moment, they’re saying he’s in critical condition, that it does not look good, but he has not passed on. Lamar’s publicist and friend issued a statement to Us Weekly asking people to stop wildly speculating about his medical condition and to give Lamar’s family and friends some room.

We know for sure Kris Jenner and Khloe Kardashian are by Lamar’s side in the Las Vegas hospital. It’s also being reported that Rob Kardashian is on his way (or possibly already there), and that Kim is there too. The LA Lakers played Vegas last night and Kobe Bryant apparently left the game early when he heard about Lamar, and Kobe joined Kris Jenner and Khloe at the hospital. There’s a lot of different information about Lamar’s ex-wife and his kids, so I don’t want to go there. There’s also some varying information about what Lamar was taking/drinking. I feel like the people at the Love Ranch are selling their stories already. Here’s what TMZ has up now:

Lamar Odom lost it Sunday … and the trigger was an episode of “Keeping Up with the Kardashians.” Sources at Dennis Hof’s Love Ranch South tell us, Lamar seemed normal during his stay until he got a call from someone about the show. Some of the women who were around Lamar say he became irate, complaining about the way he had just been portrayed on the show.

As for what was on the show … Khloe got 2 calls from Lamar. When she got off the phone Kim criticized Khloe for being flirty with Lamar. In another clip, Lamar called Khloe to tell her that his good friend Jamie had died. When she got off the phone she worried Lamar might spin out of control. And in another scene Khloe fled a club after she heard Lamar was trying to get in.

We’re told Lamar remained upset until he was found unconscious. Up until getting the call, people at the Ranch say Lamar was “chill.” There was no evidence he had been high on drugs or alcohol. We’re told when he arrived Saturday, he ordered a single bottle of cognac and when he was found unconscious a third of the bottle was left. As we reported, people at the Ranch say Lamar had been using an herbal substitute for Viagra. Someone at the Ranch who was around Lamar tells us he was popping 8 to 10 herbal Viagras at a time. There are perils to the drug — it can cause dangerously low blood pressure and it can restrict blood flow to vital organs. Another source at the ranch says Lamar was taking the actual Viagra drug from a prescription bottle.

[From TMZ]

What I keep thinking about Lamar and Khloe’s relationship is that it just became toxic at some point. I’ve always given Khloe the benefit of the doubt on how it ended – I think she really and truly loved him and really tried to make her marriage work. I think in the end, she felt like she had to get out to protect herself. And I think losing Khloe made Lamar go even further off the rails. I don’t blame Khloe for protecting herself or for not wanting to be Lamar’s caretaker or enabler, and I don’t think other people should blame her either. She really did try and I believe she’s really and truly devastated.

Update: According to E! News, drugs were found in Lamar’s system and there’s a “likely” chance he has brain damage.

    *rubs temples* OF COURSE IT WAS , Of. F*cking.course

    These women make a habit that when they are done with a dude it’s time to put his business everywhere and film footage having convos that should be private on speakers and whatever unflattering sh!t else, that’s be upsetting and he’s said as much recently, that thanks to them not even home depot would take him…

    This is a disgrace, this poor man has had a terrible life and then these vultures visited upon him

    ALSO I don’t for a second believe that working girls and their pimp would cop out to anything pointing to illegal drug use in their midst

    • Tiffany :) says:

      “Vultures” is absolutely correct. When I saw the photos of Kris Jenner looking “sad” outside of the hospital, that was the first word that popped into my head.

      • Savannah says:

        Haven’t these people heard of a little thing called protected health information or HIPAA??? For the love of Pete!
        If the Kardashians are behind all this information getting out then they really, truly make me sick. Just one more reason (and it’s not like I needed another one) to never watch their show. Or any E!/Seacrest programming for that matter.

    • Mrs. Wellen-Mellon says:

      110 correct. All of them knew Lamar’s fragility. They all exploited it for money and fame.

      • Mihaela says:

        Lay off the hate, people. This man hurt Khloe, her family, od-ed, was found in a brothel, for God’s sake, and yet she is right there, by his side, with the entire family. How many of you would have done the same? Really.

      • JenniferJustice says:

        But is she there because she really cares or is she there for another photo op? It’s pretty hard not to give her the side eye – they haven’t been supportive of Odom or their own brother in regards to their health. Instead, they’ve used them both for fodder for ratings, ergo money. She may care, maybe even probably does care, but I bet she still enjoys the attention, the photogs, and the money she’ll make from all of it. They all have an ulterior motive even if there is a hint of sincerity. They can’t seem to help themselves. And yes, I blame her/them to some extent. While nobody forced Lamar to do drugs or whatever he’s done, they definitely exploited him rather than keep his problems private. He was fragile and they portrayed him in a bad light and used him for their benefit. Forgive me for not being uber sensitive to the KKlan. My prayers go to Lamar. My sympathy goes to his actual family and children.

    • Jellybean says:

      I have never seen an episode of this show, but today I saw a clip showing the wife’s reaction when he phoned her to say his best friend had died. She did seem genuinely upset by the news, but the look on her face when she saw who was ringing was not very nice. This is not really a negative about her, I know nothing about her and most of us have had to go through difficult interactions with exes, but to have that flickering look of irritation and/or contempt broadcast across the world must be incredibly difficult to deal with, especially when the call was probably made out of grief and desperation. I am sure there were many scenes of her reactions to their relationships that must have cut really deep. I hate these shows.

    • Shambles says:

      Hear you, QQ. Though I’m not blaming Khloe or the fam directly on this one, it’s completely inappropriate that his phone call about the death of his friend was aired. That doesn’t help matters, not in the least. Like a poster below said, he was probably desperately calling his one lifeline out of pure grief, and they exploited that. Of course they did. That doesn’t mean this is their fault, but they’re not an innocent party here. Still sending all the good vibes to Lamar and hoping he pulls out of this.

    • knower says:

      Radar is reporting that cameras were rolling the minute the Kardashians entered the hospital…….sick.

      • Dani says:

        Cameras cannot ‘roll’ in the hospital due to HIPAA regulations. My dad was in a very very similar state and we were barely allowed to use our phones in the ICU, which is where Lamar likely is as well if he’s on ventilators due to collapsed lungs.

      • Nancy says:

        @knower: Don’t think that’s true. They certainly couldn’t film Lamar, and they are panic stricken and not camera ready, unless Kim is there, she’s always ready. This is just sad all the way around. The man had accolades as a pro baller and all you see on line is the Kardashians. They seem to be near tragedy a lot don’t they. PMK was best friends with Nicole Brown. Warning to all: stay away from them.

      • Nicole says:

        What the actual…? We all know people who have died, some tragically. PMK didn’t have anything to do with Nicole Brown’s death. That’s an awful thing to say.

    • The Eternal Side-Eye says:

      100% and no I’m not giving these women any benefit of the doubt. I think theyre poison, I think they take men already on the edge and push them over and make sure the cameras are rolling while they do. See ya’ll when this is Kanye’s headline…

      • Naya says:

        Lmao! Kanye may have been a coup for these schemers in that he took them to the next level but they are screwed if he ever turns on them. Kanye is crazy. He’ll bitch about them on awards shows, concerts, interviews and on random street corners. He’ll put it on albums, base entire fashion lines on the hate, he’ll even get his own reality show in which all he’ll do is air them out. You Can’t Win Against Crazy That Doesn’t Care.

        Tyga on the other hand is going down. I look forward to PMKs tearful scene where she grieves that she “wasn’t able to protect Kylie from the child molester’. They’ll even have Child Protection contacts on the bottom of the screen. Get ready Tyga- it couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy.

      • anna says:

        it is interesting that they seem to get involved with men with limited or no family, scott was an only child and both parents have now passed, kanye raised by his mom who has passed and we know about lamar

      • LA Juice says:

        THIS!

    • iseepinkelefants says:

      This comment is everything. I’m not going to pretend to know what would have happened but imagine what Lamar’s life would have been without the Kaddashian vultures. Remember he was the biggest name in the family for a while and then Kim go pissed that she was being one upped by Khloe and had to marry Kris Humphries. For a brief short moment Khloe stepped out of the shadows and had the most famous boyfriend. And then Khloe left him and that family made sure to skewer him when just a year before he was getting all of the glory. That family is evil. If Kanye ever left Kim imagine the stories… Word of caution never leave them. Just look at Humphries, Disick, they even tried to get back at Rita Ora when she left Rob. Toxic, toxic family.

      • Jen43 says:

        Thanks for posting that link. Reading that article made me so very sad for him. I hope he recovers.

      • Charm says:

        Trust me, Somthings is not right, what is happening to the men that goes into this family? Lemar don’t deserve all these humiliation. Whatever conversation him and his ex wife have, should be private, and why did Kloe pretend to fled the seen when she heard that Lemar was in the club, what kind of strategy were they trying to pull on the guy to let him look like a flipping stalker, Kloe was a good, nice and loving girl, but who put her up to start acting like this all of a sudden, they should show some respects for Lemar, he’s being famous for his true God given talent. Why should you’ll feel the need to humiliate him like that? He’s as vulnerable already, it’s not an easy thing to live with loosing your mother at such young age, having a wear – wood father, lost a career due to all these scenarios. . Then having people letting you feel like you’re worth nothing. Some people need Jesus christ! Cause money can’t buy everything. ….

    • Corrie says:

      Totally Agree. He’s been preyed upon, eaten and thrown out and still his headlines read: Khloe’s ex, Khloe rushes to his side. Ummm – did so many forget Lamar was a 2-time NBA all time champ and a Olympic NBA champ. He’s not some scrub who needed the Kardashians to give him cred. And while I see needing to make sure you protect yourself, you do make sure your ex partner who’s in trouble is getting rehab or therapy or a caretaker (privately off air). But Lamar is played out to the media like some scrub ex druggie. He’s so much more than that. Show him some respect. He’s only ever talked about the Kardashians respectfully but i don’t think they can say the same.

      • Edwin says:

        Corrie I totally agree with your comment however it’s such a shame that most people (non basketball fans) will only know him as the one Khloe loved but could not save him from his addictions. His hospital stay will be shown on the next season of there reality show. I pray for him and his children.

    • Maxine7 says:

      Something has been bothering me the whole day about this story and I think it has something to do with this. We’ve all been in horrible relationships with people who were abusive, drug addicts, or just not nice people. So then you move on and whatever happens to them happens. OR you care about them and try to help them but can’t. There’s something very . . . . self serving about the reaction of this family to the tragedy that has befallen Odom. The poor man was in a brothel for days and who knows where he was before that. It appears the family cut him off and had moved on. Fine. . . . but then when he’s critically injured and on death’s door that’s when they “rally” around him???? What if he’d just gone on another bender but been somewhat coherent? Or called Khloe 223 times telling her he loved her? What then??? What 20 days after then??

      Caring for someone who is mentally ill or a drug addict is tough. . . . it’s hard . . . it’s painful. Letting them go is all of those things as well. . . .But being somewhere in between is . . . well. . . convenient.. . . and somewhat shameless. . .

  2. snowflake says:

    Oh come on! The article says he was popping 8 herbal Viagra plus prescription Viagra but its the klans fault he’s in this condition! Wow talk about reaching. I saw that episode, Khloe talked to lamar, there was nothing on there that would have caused it. Sad that already be stories are going around. I believe the pill popping though

    • The bottom line here is that someone who is stable wouldn’t freak out like that over the tv show. That is Lamar’s weakness, and his alone.

      What I’m saying is that he had many problems before his marriage, and then he cheated and messed up very publicly. He spiraled publicly. We all saw him go over the rails in his own right. He messed around on Khloe, who STILL tried to make it work with him. He wasn’t kicked to the curb just out of nowhere and then slandered. The family actually wanted him in it!

      So no, I won’t allow the family to be blamed here.

      • Armenthrowup says:

        Same here – I kind of think it’s disgusting how people jump on the K Klan about EVERYTHING. LEt’s get some perspective – they may be as deep as a puddle and morally corrupt but they haven’t killed anyone nor in fact broken any laws! This is a sad enough situation without starting the blame game. Jeez 🙁

      • Tiffany :) says:

        At the same time, though, if you are married to a person with substance abuse issues and you use substances around them…you aren’t being supportive.

        Additionally, if you use that person’s struggles as a commodity in a product you are selling, like a tv show, you aren’t being a decent person. He’s solely responsible for his addiction issues, but she is responsible for exploiting them for an audience on TV.

      • me says:

        They sure did break laws letting their minor daughter screw a 25 year old.

      • parissucksliterally says:

        Tiffany, I agree with you 100%.

      • snowflake says:

        .

    • Naya says:

      Sure he has had a drug problem but it doesn’t help that the woman he loves airs fictionalized versions of their interraction on the show. I strongly urge everybody who watches that trash to read Gawkers weekly piece on the shows production. There’s not a single authentic moment on that show. If Lamar rang Khloe while she is both coincidentally being filmed and near her disapproving sister, I bet that either 1) the call is fake OR 2) she asked him to call at that precise moment. My point is Khloe needed a storyline and she has happily exploited Lamar for that purpose. A guy in his right mind would say to himself “this girl chases after me one minute then depicts me as a deranged stalker the next. She is the last thing I need right now” . But Lamar is ill. Instead he gives TMZ interviews explaining that he is being set up and nobody believes him. He may be unstable but Khloe ans her producers have been gaslightibg him

      • Tiffany :) says:

        ^^^^^THIS!!!!

        “There’s not a single authentic moment on that show.”
        100% correct.

      • Saywhatwhen says:

        Right Naya!!!! 100% with you. Wake up people. The storyline where Khloe is a long suffering wife with a husband with a drug/hooker/crack problem is hugely manufactured!!

      • chaine says:

        I so agree, Naya! This is a very troubled man, and if Khloe truly cared for him, she would know better than to display his troubles on camera for a worldwide audience just to make a buck.

      • Jayna says:

        I was disgusted how they used his severe problems for a storyline.

    • Heat says:

      As someone who has lost a family member due to drug addiction, I can honestly say that he was on a mission to self-destruct. He may have used an episode of KUWTK as his excuse-du-jour, but I think it is extremely unfair to point the finger squarely on that. If it hadn’t been an episode of the show (which he would have chosen to watch, knowing that seeing Khloe would be painful), it would have been some other excuse.

      Also, if these reports are true, how did he suddenly go from taking ‘herbal viagra’ to having hard core drugs miraculously onhand??? That “ranch” owner is trying to cover his own a$$ to avoid any legal implications in all this.

      • Jayna says:

        I agree about that. Drug addicts use every excuse for why they are using or binging. I don’t blame them for that. I do blame them as horrible, crass human beings who use a man’s suffering for a storyline, a man they claim to love. It turned me off from day one when they did this regarding Lamar.

        Does Khloe love him? Of course she did and suffered with him far more than we will ever know. That still doesn’t excuse the crass commercialization of a man’s spiral down all for ratings.

      • lucy2 says:

        Agree with you both. His addiction problems are his own, and he’s been out of the K family for a while now. But I fully agree they’ve used him when it suited them for their stupid, stupid show, and while they may not be the cause of his problems, they certainly contributed to it. At best they took advantage of his situation, and at worst, played into it to antagonize him for “drama”.
        I don’t blame her for leaving him, if he was in such a bad place, but the whole family should have respected him enough to leave him alone and not put it on the show, tip off paparazzi, leak to tabloids, etc.

      • Christin says:

        Agree with all the above. He made choices, certainly, but that is also a fragile state that should not be used for personal gain (as in, a storyline for ratings).

      • Kate says:

        This. People like Lamar will always find a reason.

        My ex once went on a suicidal bender because no one was taking his calls. Of course he was only calling people he knew were at work and wouldn’t have their personal phone on them…There were dozens of other people he could have called, but no, he was manufacturing a reason to do what he did. He survived, and 3 months later created another situation like that, and on and on it goes.

      • JenniferJustice says:

        It wasn’t one episode that dragged him down, it was their entire relationship and his involvement with that family on any level that added to his already fragile state. You can’t use a person who has problems for your own gain and then say it’s not my fault he has problems. No, none of the kardashians put pills in his mouth or made his snort Coke, but they gave him lots of reasons to want to escape and dull his pain. They exploited what should have been private. They used what should have been protected. They made money off someone who needed trust and reliability. Every one of these statements describes a wolf preying on the vulnerable. I swear, some people need a magnifying glass to see what’s so obvious.

    • Sam says:

      Just picking up on the detail about his call to Khloe being aired on the show (I’ve not seen but it sounds like they play his voice?). Maybe someone can advise… Would the tv show be allowed to just air his coversation without his consent? Or would Lamar have had to sign off beforethey could use his the recording of his voice on air?

      • jwoolman says:

        Sam- they probably have a long-term provision in the original contract allowing them to do that without his ongoing consent. Otherwise reruns would be a problem also. They certainly do the “fake phone call” routine frequently. Look at all the biased edits and outright fakery they engaged in to smear Humphries once Kim decided to upgrade to Kanye – he certainly never wanted that, but he couldn’t do anything about it legally.,

    • Nev says:

      WORD.

  3. Amy Tennant says:

    I wonder if the fleeing the club thing was before or after he confronted her outside the gym? I don’t blame Lamar for being upset with how he was portrayed of course, but neither do I blame her. I’d take steps to avoid my ex, too. I do hope he pulls through, and it’s sad all around.

    • Dawn says:

      Amy, I do believe that she had been calling Lamar for a few days and asking him about a reconciliation and asked him to meet her there so they could talk. And that is why he was so surprised to see the cameras and she started to act like she was in danger. TMZ than went on to rip him a new one when it was all on Khloe. After that happened Lamar threatened to bring down the family with everything he knew. There are two sides to this story and I do not believe that Khloe was showing much love for this man after all.

  4. Annie says:

    I believe she’s devastated too because she still loves him. I don’t like this family but I don’t think they are to blame. Addiction runs in his family, and he is the one who’s made bad decisions.
    That being said, I hope it’s not true that there is already a camera at the hospital hoping to film whatever happens for the show.

    • JenniferJustice says:

      Oh for God’s sake! My sister is an alocholic and while it’s nobody’s fault how she copes or doesn’t cope, it would definitely be on us if we exploited her, made fun of her alcoholism, portrayed her as a skank, or anything else to add to her already fragile state. Why does it have to be direct in order to blame? I don’t put alcohol in my sisters mouth, but if I purposely do things to make her feel even sh!ttier about herself KNOWING she has an addiction, you really think I shouldn’t be held accountable for my part?

  5. Nancy says:

    It is so unfair of TMZ to run this story while he is fighting for his life. I saw a clip on E where Khloe was once again getting maligned by Kim for her feelings towards Lamar. Khloe has always been his advocate even while he was at his worst. I can only imagine why the exes of these women get upset that they continually use them as storylines while they’re long gone….he’s not there to defend himself, as Reggie wasn’t, Kris Humphries, Scott won’t be and all the others. Reality tv is a curse and it finally is getting deadly for the Kardashians. Things aren’t pointing in the direction of his survival and all hell will break lose. End this show.

    • Chrissy says:

      Everything you said, Nancy.

    • Saywhatwhen says:

      I pray for his survival for his sake, for his children’s sake and for those who genuinely love him and want him in their lives…for those who see his value as a person, a human, a father. God grant him strength and let him live to see better days!!!

    • Jayna says:

      I agree with everything you said. Except the show won’t end. They are like cockroaches. You can’t get rid of them.

    • swack says:

      Yet she also said he was stalking her, was afraid and needed extra body guards. It’s conflicting stories like this that makes it hard to sort out what is the truth with their relationship and what is not. Just saying.

  6. anniefannie says:

    Poor Lamar therenwasnt must chance of this story not becoming sensationalized given where he was. Those ranch people are pond scum and I have no doubt there will be inaccurate, over-hyped stories being sold to any/all takers.

    • jwoolman says:

      Maybe not so much. It’s a legal business in that area, a safer place than illegal ones for the employees (and therefore a desirable job comparatively), and confidentiality is probably part of what they are selling. He apparently was staying with his friend the owner and was not just a regular customer. The little bit of info available so far may be from the 911 call, which is accessible to anybody who pays for the recordings and fills out the proper forms. The rest is probably coming straight from the Kardashians.

  7. Tiffany :) says:

    If you truly care for someone, you don’t use their struggles a plot point for your character arch on a cheap tv show.

    • Josephine says:

      This. People who use their relationships to fuel a tv show love no one but themselves. I don’t believe that a single one of these people has a real relationship with another human being. It’s all about the angle, the story, the sell. Love means cherishing and protecting your relationship and those you love — these horrid, greedy monsters are exactly opposite of that.

      • The Eternal Side-Eye says:

        Pretty much this. Everyone was singing up and down how genuine Khloe was and different from Kim till she did a complete 180. I’m sure she thought she could just use him for a few story and it wouldn’t end up like this.

    • Saywhatwhen says:

      Exactly!! She does not love Lamar. That is a storyline. A successful one apparently because people here believe it. She loves money and attention and the never ending cycle of what those two things bring her!!!!

    • Jayna says:

      Amen.

    • ldub says:

      E films their lives.
      ALL OF IT. The good, bad, and the ugly.
      Khloe protected Lamar as much as she could while filming so his issues were never seen.
      Its when they broke up that they filmed the fall out of the marriage/drug use.
      Its a “reality” show not a scripted drama.

      • jwoolman says:

        It is scripted. Even Kim had to admit that under oath. They set up scenes, I suspect that certain people are not entirely let in on the plotline (like Humphries and Kris’s ex). They’re not very good actors, even playing themselves, you can tell just from the way they talk on the show that they are playing parts. They rehearse and reshoot. And make up scenes after the fact, trying to spin things a certain way (they did that to Humphries, months after Kim filed for divorce, to pretend that while they were together she was “having doubts”; they were caught because they forgot to change clothes for the scene). They fake phone calls to and from their targets – they’ve done that to Rob and Lamar and apparently Reggie.

        My bet is that the secrets Lamar was threatening to spill involved not only the scripting (which others have already revealed) but also about Khloe’s drug use. Maybe about Kris also, she certainly acts like an alcoholic at the very least.

      • McMe says:

        It is 100% a scripted show with re-takes, out-takes, written dialogue, make up, craft services..the whole nine yards. You don’t need a team of “writers” for a “reality” show!

      • Tiffany :) says:

        “E films their lives.
        ALL OF IT.”

        This is 100% absolutely not true. I know someone who was a writer for the show. This show is scripted, they chose when and where to film. It is NOT a documentary. They do not have all of their lives on tape and they have not given all editing power to the network.

        “Reality” in regards to television means either soft scripted where they give plot points, general lines of dialogue and do retakes, or a storyline is created from existing footage, like a mosaic. In either situation, the show is NOT a reflection of reality. Reality TV is not Documentary TV.

      • JenniferJustice says:

        Awwww….Bless your heart you poor niaive thing!

    • saras says:

      Gross the latest pics of Kim at the hospital with her veiny bust hanging out and pap walking. These slores would wear net catsuits to your dang funeral. Now Scott is supposedly in rehab because of Lamar!?! Ugh… Sad all around.

  8. thaisajs says:

    I think it’s extremely unfair of people to try to blame Khloe or the Kardashians on this. Clearly, Lamar had emotional issues that had nothing to do with her (loss of NBA career, family issues etc). I’m not a Kardashian fan and it drives me crazy that they’re still a daily thing in my life (as I read sites like this one), but seems like that guy was self-destructive long before he heard about the latest episode.

    • Nancy says:

      True that. But this is KUWTK. It doesn’t give them the right to drag exes into their money maker unless they have signed on to do so. Given Lamar’s history of drug abuse and depression, this would only be a catalyst for more destructive behavior. If she loves him as much as she claims she does (that is between running the town with French Montana and James Harden) she would allow him to heal or not in his reality, not hers. Kanye doesn’t want his daughter on there understandably, so why is it okay to exploit a troubled ex. These bitches played with fire and now a man lay dying, can’t blame them, but it sure didn’t help. Shame.

      • Le sigh. says:

        Does everyone know that you have to give consent for your name or likeness to be used? He consented to that phone call being aired. He knew the deal. If he didn’t like the stories, he has plenty of legal resources to stop it. Any number of LA lawyers would be happy to take on the K’s for the cash.

        It’s not okay to down play addiction, by placing the blame on other people. NOT SAYING YOU DID. But the tone of the threads in general is a bit much.

        Plus we talk about the K’s taking advantage, while is father already sold his story to Us Weekly.

      • Tiffany :) says:

        Le sigh, sometimes consent can be “in perpetuity”. For example, if he signed a contract that allowed his name and likeness to be used in Season 2 and that contract said “in perpetuity”, it might extend beyond that season. We can’t really make assumptions either way.

      • Tifygodess24 says:

        @le sigh we also don’t know what kind of contract he signed off on in the past so he may not be ok with being filmed now, or his likeness being used still or so on. You don’t need a release each time you are on tv if you have a contract. And trust me Kris got in there with all that paperwork a long time ago. Let’s not forget if Lamar passes Khloe also gets a rather large life insurance policy off of him. Again Kris’s doing…..

    • Saywhatwhen says:

      The man was a successful ball player in the NBA. She drained him like a vampire!!! #IBLAMEKHLOE. Here is hoping that catches on and that succubus colony go straight to hell.

      • snowflake says:

        You do know his dads an addict, right? And that makes Lamar more likely to be an addict. can’t blame it all on them. There is personal choice involved and a family history of addiction.

    • Ponygirl says:

      Khloe cheated FIRST which sent Lamar into a spin.

      No one ever talks about it because PMK has a tight lid on any articles that are printed about that family. It happened when she was hosting that singing show.

      Why do we know so much about this incident? Lamar has become a private citizen over the last year. Why do we need to see the ambulance, see PMK, see all the articles about this event?

      If anything, the man, AND his children, deserve PRIVACY.

      All this info is coming from the Kardashians. And for that, I WILL NEVER FORGIVE THEM FOR TRASHING LAMAR.

      • Anon33 says:

        Are you kidding. This is a man who was found unconscious in a wh*rehouse!!!! But ok, I’m sure Khloe cheated first and drove him to hookers….SMDH. Nobody drives anyone to use hookers.

      • Ponygirl says:

        Anon33
        You completely missed my point.

        Why do we know that he passed out in a whorehouse? Why do we know he has taken every drug in the world? Why do we know that Khloe rushed to his side?
        BECAUSE the Kardashians are telling the world.

        Lamar has two children, for god’s sake. PMK could have easily put a lid on the entire affair but instead she is calling TMZ hourly with updates.

        This man and his children deserve PRIVACY!

      • Christin says:

        It’s amazing how quickly the updates are being given by “sources at the hospital”. There is no privacy whatsoever for him.

        I sincerely hope his children are not getting these “updates” through the media as they are apparently trying to travel there with their mother.

  9. Tacos and TV says:

    I personally do not think it is fair for them to continue to include him in her storyline if he is not on the show without his consent. Especially with his issues. It is not fair and it really makes me a bit irate. I have always felt that way. There was a reason they ended Khloe and Lamar and it’s because he did not want to do it anymore because he was having personal issues. So as much as I feel bad for anyone who is the partner to a person suffering from abuse, it still does not look good that her and her family use him as a dramatic element of their show.

    • Janie says:

      I feel for Khloe, she does love him. I’m glad Rob will be there for Khloe as well. The rest need to go home and leave this man in peace. I’m sure Kim will only let him have the spotlight for so long. She’ll probably start having contractions. I hope I’m wrong, She and Kris are despicable. Prayers and good thoughts for Lamar, Khloe and his family.

      • WinnieCoopersMom says:

        Lol at the thought of her having fake contractions to get the spotlight back on her..she so would do that

    • Katy says:

      I agree with you Tacos – 100%! I don’t really blame Khole or that stupid disgusting family, but for them to continue to even mention his name on their show is wrong in so many ways. It’s cruel and selfish. This family is such TRASH!!

      • Tacos and TV says:

        Exactly. Even if he didn’t have a drug problem, and just wasn’t on the show, he should not f**king be discussed or featured at all. I am sick to my stomach that a person who suffers from depression and addiction was exploited for a godda*mn story line! Even Rob, he is not on the show. why do they keep discussing his issues publicly. I am just done. I rarely use the word hate, but I really could right now.

  10. Dottie says:

    Just found this while surfing MSN news… not sure how legit it is, but doesn’t surprise me in the least…

    http://www.msn.com/en-ca/tv/celebrity/lamar-odoms-struggle-to-survive-being-filmed-by-keeping-up-with-the-kardashians-camera-crews/ar-AAfr3Zh?li=AA59yo

    • FingerBinger says:

      I don’t know that you can come into a hospital with cameras rolling without the hospital’s permission.

    • Heat says:

      It’s since been disproven.
      The show is currently on hiatus, anyway, and it sounds like Khloe has ensured that no cameras be allowed anywhere near Lamar.

      • Josephine says:

        Sounds to me like they changed their tune when the reaction was overwhelmingly negative. These people are vile, and everything is about using and abusing people for the almighty dollar. I have no doubt the film crew is available to film all of them fake crying.

  11. Deborah D. Bowser says:

    Prayers for Lamar Odom and family. This is devastating news. Praying for your swift and complete recovery Lamar…

  12. vauvert says:

    I don’t think it is fair to say the klan is guilty for his condition. However, I will say this: remember a few weeks ago when Khloe made a big deal about how terrified she was that Lamar approached her in the morning on the way to the gym? A lot of people believed her and pitied her. I thought then, as I do now, that it was a complete setup for ratings.

    The last thing a woman would do if she was really so afraid of her ex would be to fly out with her family and Kamera krew to his hospital bed. I am willing to buy her being upset and sad, sure, but her going along with all the klan smells awfully like a media moment to me. Perhaps I am just a cynic….

    • Tiffany :) says:

      I thought about that event, too. I just don’t see that he would know she’d be there at that time if she didn’t tell him (and the photographers) to meet her there.

      • Saywhatwhen says:

        She asked him to meet her. He agreed and she ambushed him with the cameras/paps. That man spiraled mostly because he loved that vampire succubus. I am just sitting here in awe at how people believe the fiction these women sell. They don’t love anyone but themselves.

    • Christin says:

      I never understood that, either. I realize he has a long history of issues, but it was sad when he said his reputation was so shattered he likely could not get a job at a home improvement store.

      If he recovers, I hope he will get his life on track and focus on his children, not people who place a show’s storylines above all else.

    • The Eternal Side-Eye says:

      So the question becomes, as it always does with a Kardashian, was she lying then or is she lying now?

    • Heat says:

      No, I don’t believe the two events can even be compared in this way.
      Just because she was nervous or uncomfortable about him tracking her down at the gym, does not mean that she didn’t love him. A person on drugs can be extremely unpredictable, and I have no doubt that Khloe witnessed that, firsthand, with Lamar in the past.

  13. Lilacflowers says:

    There is no way all those unrelated people are being allowed into an ICU at the same time.

    • Josephine says:

      That’s why Kris is outside with her crocodile tears – gotta get that footage somewhere.

    • Dani says:

      There isn’t really a limit on the amount of people allowed in the ICU unit. In the room, 3-4 are allowed at the same time and there’s a sitting area within the ICU unit for remaining visitors. I don’t know how every hospital runs but that’s how it was with my dad. Only family was allowed in and only visitors approved by the ‘next of kin’ were allowed in.

      • Lilacflowers says:

        We had to deal with limits when my father was on life support. Twice. The hospital gave us a waiting room of our own so we could discuss our decisions away from the families of other patients. One of the factors is actual space. They need quick access to patient and equipment, which you don’t have with 6-8 people in the way.

  14. kitty orchid says:

    At the end of every Narcotics Anonymous meeting, the members collectively remind themselves of the inevitable result of untreated addiction: jails, institutions, and death. They also say a silent prayer for the “still suffering addicts” that are out in the world. Let us all say a “silent prayer” for Lamar.

  15. yuck says:

    If Khloe had really cared about her marriage, she should’ve dropped out of her reality TV program(s) when it was clear this was making her husband uncomfortable. She has to have plenty of money, and at one point, he had a very lucrative career. Is it about the money for her or the attention? It does make one wonder if the whole marriage was just a plot line in the first place. Reality TV in general rarely seems to have positive outcomes for the participants. Too bad these programs have become such huge profit centers for their producers and networks.

    • Christin says:

      It’s similar to child stars and how tough it is to think of many that have turned out halfway normal.

      With reality shows, the lines between storylines and what should be private life are blurred if non-existent. I really do wonder if he realized his recent conversations would become fodder for an episode.

    • platypus says:

      I seriously doubt these people are even able to separate genuine emotion from a plot line at this point, knowing every personal choice they make in life will get broadcast and monetized. If that’s not selling your soul to the devil, I don’t know what is.

  16. Sam says:

    I don’t blame Khloe, I do think she has genuine feelings for him and tried. But I do blame that family for how they treated him. They leaked all kinds of vicious stories about him when he and Khloe first separated, including allegations that he was a crack smoker (something I don’t think was ever substantiated). They tried to turn him into a villain during one of the most vulnerable phases of his life. And that is shameful, and they should be criticized for it.

    • jwoolman says:

      And all those stories from “sources” had a definite female tone to them. Men and women tend to use language differently (being basically raised in different cultures) and the style differences are quite distinctive. They really sounded straight from Kris Jenner. I doubted the accuracy of them at the time because there were inconsistencies. The K Klan was just being busy trying to deflect from the embarrassing story about Lamar’s cheating. They have been so relentless that I do blame them as a real factor in his downward spiral. Not the only factor, but they exploited him for ratings and to spin stories they didn’t like about themselves. And Khloe was certainly involved in that – details had to be coming straight from her at various points, she would tell Demon Mother and then DM would concoct her little “a source says” stories.

  17. paolanqar says:

    Why are the Kardashians even involved in this?
    Going to hospital for visits, getting inconsolable and play happy family?
    Khloè divorced him and she obtained a restraining order after Lamar was used as a bait to get the media’s attention and none of the evil sisters wanted to be around him anymore or be nominated in the same sentence as with Lamar.
    They didn’t want to have anything to do with recently, him but now they do?

    Now he’s in hospital and they want to milk the crap out of it. His family should be there and his close friends, no one else.
    This family is 100% asshole.

    I wish the Kardashians would take this as a lesson and learn from it. I wish they could start thinking of what a shallow life they live and that this is a tragic happening to a terrible life style.
    If Myda was able to turn everything he touched into gold, they can turn anyone they touch into a loser alcoholic-drugged mess with no self respect, no prospect of a career and no life whatsoever.

    They’re the human version of a praying manta.

  18. meme says:

    The Kartrashians are VULTURES. I can see Khloe being there but PMK and Kimbocile? And Rob? When will Caitlyn arrive? That they will use this for this vulgar show is despicable.

    • Neah23 says:

      Sadly I think your right. This feels like their usual MO which is to put out stories like this to get sympathy from the public before trashing the ex on TV and in the tabloids.

    • Dani says:

      Rob and Lamar were very close for a long time. Rob even lived with them and it was rumored Rob and Lamar still kept in touch.

    • lucy2 says:

      If I were facing something like this, my mom would probably come with me for support. But then again, my mom hasn’t sold the souls of her whole family for money and fame, so…yeah I have to think Kris is only there for the cameras.

      I hope the people who truly love him are able to be there.

  19. G says:

    Poor Lamar. I’ve admired his game since he was Clipper. Never stood a chance with these narcissistic monsters. Nothing is too sacred for good ratings.

  20. nicegirl says:

    Praying for Lamar and his family

  21. The Eternal Side-Eye says:

    I hope he recovers, if all that information is correct then it sounds like this could be really bad. I think that family did to hik what they do to all men, they turn them into a target and a atoryline broadcasting their faults and making sure the man feels completely isolated.

    We’ve seen it happen so many times before and now it finally escalated to this.

  22. funcakes says:

    Oh good a new storyline for the Kardouches to exploit.

  23. My two cents says:

    They should be prohibited from using any of this on that sorry show. If they have normal emotions, they would realize the poor taste. I’m sure producers are thinking man what a great story line. Another famous NA saying is that some of us have to die so that some of us may live. I pray he isn’t one of them. Or worse yet to be left in a vegetative state.

  24. Jag says:

    What I don’t understand is why the hospital would let cameras anywhere on their property. And why are all of the K’s going there? It should just be Khloe because she was married to him. Kim especially shouldn’t be there, since she apparently kept telling Khloe to not communicate with him.

    People who appear to be unconscious aren’t always. My mother was in the ICU and the doctors and nurses said she couldn’t hear us, but she heard me say her favorite Psalm before they moved her and she heard when the nurses kept turning up her television after we left each time. (We kept it turned down because she didn’t like loud t.v.s.) And one of her friend’s has a son who was in a coma for 6 months and she was told the same thing – that he couldn’t hear anyone in the room. Not only did he hear everything that was said the entire time, he heard the doctors berating his mother to try to get his mother to take him off of life support; the first thing he said when he woke up was “Thank you, mom, for fighting for me!”

    Moral of the story: only people who love and care for him should be in that room – not fame seeking, soul sucking, evil wretches like most of the KKlan. I pray that Lamar comes out of this fully.

  25. parissucksliterally says:

    They shredded him on their show, and to the media – NOW all of a sudden they are on his side again? This family is despicable!

    I understand Khloe being there, and dragging her Mom – but Kim’s pregnant ass should have stayed home. Why does SHE need to be there? She has a child to care for, and is pregnant! The only reason she went is because they brought cameras and she wants to seem sympathetic.

    Ugh. I cannot even begin to express in words how disgusted I am with this deplorable family.

  26. taboo says:

    Since people are pushing the “great guy taken advantage of by evil reality tv women” angle, i guess we’re not supposed to talk about the fact the he was found at a brothel, run by his buddy, in which it costs “$5,000-$10,000/night … depending on how many girls you get with it.”

    • parissucksliterally says:

      I don’t think he is a great guy. Anyone who gets involved with this family cannot be a good person. I also don’t think it was the K family’s fault that he fell apart, he is an addict. I do think it is horrible for them to be filming this, and using this situation to their advantage.

      • taboo says:

        i loathe the K family – they are definitely amoral opportunists. he is an addict and i’m not judging his drug use (although he has far more resources than most ). i am, however, judging the purchase of multiple women for his enjoyment. of course, not all addicts are bad people…. but not all addicts spend their holidays at brothels.

      • Neah23 says:

        @ Taboo

        Having sex with these ladies doesn’t make him a bad person.

    • Char says:

      Seriously, this. Someone up thread said that his drug abuse & love of hookers was manufactured for the show. He was found at a brothel & TMZ was reporting that he had cocaine in his system & track marks on him. I’m not trying to bash him, but the hate for the Kardashians is so great that some people apparently want to ignore the facts. Lamar had/has real problems.

      Sorry, this was a reply for a different comment.

      • LizzyFizzy says:

        His Wikipedia article says that he was cited for soliciting a prostitute as a college player in 1997. He was still a teenager at the time. Simultaneously, he was let go from his first college team after questions were raised about his academic record/ACT scores. He was suspended from the Clippers for drug violations circa 2001. It says something about his talent for basketball that he was even able to have such a strong NBA career, given those setbacks.

        While I’m sure reality tv didn’t help him, the poor man had longstanding problems with drugs and emotional struggles that predated his marriage. It is really sad all around. I hope he pulls through.

  27. IfUSaySo says:

    I dont think is the Kardashians fault and I CANNOT STAND them! I know Lamar has had a very difficult life. His mother died when he was 12, his dad is a junkie, one of his children died of SIDS ALL before he even met Khloe. All of those things raise the risk he will fall into drugs. It was all a matter of time. Of all the relationships on the show, I think Khloe and Lamar were the most real. They genuinely seemed to love each other. Lamar basically had no one in his life that wasn’t trying to use him for money and Khloe obviously didn’t need his money. I don’t think this is a case of Scott or Bruce getting completely screwed up by the K women. I really think he had too much pain and the negative media attn coupled with his best friend dying were too much. I saw this coming and I feel bad for him and Khloe.

  28. Amy M. says:

    Is this what it would take to get the Kardashians off the air? A man ended up with brain damage due to how he was portrayed on the show. This is NOT Khloe’s fault at all–she kept quiet about her marriage problems for a long time, most likely because she didn’t want it to be a storyline on the show. Once she coudn’t keep it a secret anymore Mama Kris got her claws in and that was that, Khloe had to go along with it. Obviously Lamar’s actions are his own but watching that episode was the straw that broke the camel’s back. I for one am not interested in watching the breakdown of a man on reality TV. Enough is enough.

    • snowflake says:

      Hmm, the part I read said drugs were found in his system and all the herbal viagra he took directs blood flow to his penis. But you’re right, its those whores!

    • jwoolman says:

      Khloe did not have to go along with it. She chose to go along with it. She knows exactly how her mother is and what her mother would do with any information provided.

      I suspect Khloe is hiding a lot of things about her own activities, and was using the Lamar stories as a smokescreen. That doesn’t mean she can’t have mixed feelings. But she isn’t some innocent who had no idea how her Demon Mother would twist and use things.

  29. Sam H x says:

    What this family is guilty of is exploiting the personal struggles of Lamar, Rob & Scott for the almighty dollar. Any time someone leaves this family or doesn’t toe the line they anniliate them in the press in their favour. It’s disgusting.

    They are not responsible for his unfortunate predicament but they are incredibly guilty of taking advantage of a very troubled man.

    I pray Lamar pulls through.

  30. snowflake says:

    Wow, I dont care for the kardashians but you can’t blame them for Lamar’s issues. I’m sure he was in the know on the show where he calls her. He’s been on the show, he signed off On it! And this story is just being sensationalized by adding the k’sk’s to it. Ffs, he had drugs in his system according to reports and he was popping herbal Viagra! Khloe really cares about Lamar, her mom and sis came along. Obvs they care about him! Just cause they’re plastic, it doesn’t mean they don’t have a heart!

    • Saywhatwhen says:

      Starting to think you are heavily invested in the K’s. Because everyone knows that if you bust open a K chest you would find black coal with a $ sign etched into the lump.

      But I give you a thumbs up for the Jane Bennett attitude. Good on you. The world needs less of us cynics and more of you.

  31. Jayna says:

    I’ve always worried about Rob. I don’t know what his drug problems are, but I do know he is one severely depressed guy, has isolated himself for over a year from everybody. Yet they still used him on story lines on the show without him even being there. I used to think are they even concerned that their son/brother could be a suicide risk or is fragile and to tread very carefully and not use him and his issues and their issues with him on the show? Hell, no.

  32. JudyK says:

    Not blaming the Kardashians for an overdose, BUT QQ was absolutely correct when she described them as Vultures. Spot on. I can see Khloe going to the hospital to be by his side, but cameras HAD ABSOLUTELY NO BUSINESS THERE. Period. And you can bet your bottom dollar that Pimp Mom had a hand in that. She also had no business being there. My gawd, I am sick of them–particularly her.

    • me says:

      Why was PMK there? She has ZERO relationship with Lamar. I understand why Khloe was there, but none of the others should have been. Of course they made sure the paps got all the good shots too. Pathetic. Did anyone bother to call Lamar’s dad? Lamar’s children? F*ck the Kardashians.

    • Sam says:

      I hope so much that Lamar’s kids are being protected and shielded. I hope they are not there, or if they are, they are being protected from the Klan and their cameras. His children should be the priority here. They may lose their dad under horrible circumstances. His ex and her family should not be the focus. People says his kids are 17 and 13 – old enough to understand what is going on. His father is alive and a recovered addict himself. Has anyone thought to see how his dad is doing? Also, he has another ex, whom he was with far longer than his marriage to Khloe and who had 3 kids to him. But none of these people exist right now, it’s just all Kardashians all the time.

  33. iheartgossip says:

    These idiots are the worst family on God’s green Earth. The Worst. The devil protects them from Karma. Klodzilla has a $10 million life insurance policy on Lamar; you wanna bet the family is somehow involved in his ‘death’. Horrible, horrible family. They seem to thrive off hate, which is from the devil himself.

    • me says:

      I really hope that God forbid anything happens to Lamar, he was smart enough to leave EVERYTHING to his children. Khloe should not get a dime.

  34. me says:

    Remember that time the paps caught Lamar and Khloe trying to meet up outside of a gym? Khloe later said Lamar was stalking her. Lamar said Khloe set up the meeting but wouldn’t admit it. He went off in front of the cameras and said if she ever pulled a stunt like this again, he would expose her and her family. So yeah, I can see him getting upset even being mentioned on their show. This family will do anything for ratings. Why is Lamar’s name even being brought up on their show when he’s no longer a part of it? That’s bullsh*t. Especially when they know he’s not happy with how they portray him. This family is very cruel. They don’t care about anyone but themselves.

  35. jwoolman says:

    It must be so painful for his children to see all the headlines and stories still linking their critically ill father with the Kardashians. The daughter said some things at the time of the breakup (when she was about 15) that suggested she was feeling resentful about the way the Kardashians took over her dad. Not too uncommon in remarriage for the kids to have such problems, but in that case there was more truth to it. Lamar had a good career once, and it is very sad to see him reduced to “Khloe Kardashian’s ex-husband”.

    And there is no reason for Kim to be at the hospital and many reasons why she shouldn’t be there. Kim doesn’t like Lamar and doesn’t try to hide it, and has repeatedly told Khloe to stop communicating with him. Kim and Khloe don’t even seem friendly. Kim always makes everything about herself, that’s why she’s there. The only one other than Khloe who should go near Lamar at this point is Rob.

    • Saywhatwhen says:

      But wait. Watch for the upcoming season. These women are image/media savvy. Khloe will switch from the long suffering wife of the cracked out former NBA player and will slip into the role of blaming herself for what’s happened to Lamar. Then cue all the gullible sheep who will feel sorry for her and say poor Khloe shouldn’t blame herself. Major sympathy coming Khloe’s way soon.

      Children, what children? No one will remember that Lamar has children and no one will remember him as a great ball player. He will be forever tarred as Khloe’s cracked out ex who brought her nothing but heartache. It will all be about sympathy for Khloe. Hope to God Kobe Bryant doesn’t let it go down like that. Lamar’s children and loved ones deserve a better memory of their dad. Khloe married a good guy even if he had issues. She and her family him tore down for ratings. Hope people stop denying that. Let the truth be heard.

  36. me says:

    There are new pics of Kim arriving at the hospital. Why on earth is she there? She’s in her usual black tight dress and long black coat with hair parted in the middle and shades on. She probably called her mom “yeah but are the paps there?”. Her mom probably said there is loads of media coverage so of course Kim got her glam team to get her ready and then showed up for the pap stroll. This family is so sick. She was just dogging Lamar on their show the other day, now she’s trying to act all supportive. The fakeness is so clear.

    Also, why on earth is Rev. Jessie Jackson there ???????

    • Petee says:

      I thought that too.I can understand Khloe there but Kim and Kris?I guess jessie is better then Al Sharpton.What a circus.

  37. anna says:

    I dont doubt that getting involved with this family is a hazard esp if you already have problems but this was a grown man that had children and he was given pass after pass because he was a good athlete and the blame shifts to the women he CHOSE to have in his life. so typical of our culture

  38. boredblond says:

    Awful lot of assuming going on. If there is one absolute dynamic in this bunch it’s that khloe is the fixer..she’s the only one who tried repeatedly to help/save her brother and reunited Lamar with his family and tried to get him to stay in rehab. He had problems long before K association, but it was clear she thought she could fix them..over and over again. She’s misguided, but I don’t think that equates to evil.I wish him well, but sadly the news didn’t surprise me.

  39. Nancy says:

    TMZ reported that he has a 50/50 chance of survival, and that with each organ failing, the chances reduce. I wonder who the douche is releasing this information to them, they have a fat paycheck and no conscience. There are pics of Kim and PMK looking obviously haggard. I live my life the total opposite of Kim Kardashian and loathe some of her antics and the nightmare of a show of theirs, but the women is very pregnant and for a second, looking at her, knowing all the fear and dread she must be feeling, I almost felt sorry for her. Because this is about them more than poor Lamar at least in the social media world. Maybe she does have faith and is just holding on to it. Prayers up Lam Lam

    If only these creepy Kardashians could see themselves for just 1 second for who they really are– so full of all things negative, so vain, so greedy, so selfish, so cruel, so evil.

    They hurt and used Lamar so badly. So, so sad.

    • Nicolette says:

      That will never happen. They will make this about them, not Lamar. Their suffering, their sorrow, their loss etc. Then I give it a week before it’s back to business and the fame whore pap strolls. Soulless creatures.

      • Tate says:

        This is exactly what will go down. They are the lowest creatures around.

      • Jayna says:

        And why is Kim there really? Kris is there with her daughter. I shouldn’t find her suspect, and she could truly be there for the right reasons, her sister. But where there’s a story she is there, like all of a sudden being Bruce’s bestie as he was becoming Caitlyn and it got her a lot of publicity she realized, good publicity. I shouldn’t be so jaded about them but I am.

        I truly feel for Khloe right now, though, and his kids.

  41. Corrie says:

    Just praying for him at this time. No blame just love for a dear man. At the end of the day, he was a very nice and genuine guy, dealt many struggles until they obviously got to be too much. Hope he has someone near who truly loves him and will see him through.

  42. Colette says:

    US Weekly says they are not divorced.They both signed the papers in July but a judge has not signed off yet.Khloe is his next of kin

  43. Texasgurl says:

    This is not the fault of the Kartrashian family, this is straight up Lamar’s fault. How old is he? he can make his own decisions and he decided to pop a bunch of pills, mix them with whiskey and get lit. He is responsible for his own behavior, not the Krazy Family.

    • Jayna says:

      His demons and drug addiction aren’t their fault, nor this episode. It doesn’t take away how disgusted I was that they began leaking a blinding amount of personal information about him during their marriage breakdown and in promoting the new season of KUWTK. It was so obvious it was coming from Pimpmomager, stuff only they know. It was horrible the stuff they were leaking, that none of us needed to know, and an awful thing to do to your husband in his darkest hour and still trying to hang on to his career. This season I saw clips of them using him for a story line again for Khloe. That whole thing with him outside her gym was them using him in his lowest state for publicity again. His own wife doing that. The guy is a mess and they use him and their brother, who is a depressed mess, to talk about and exploit for story lines.

      I don’t blame them for this nor for his drug addiction. I blame them for their despicable behavior using his spiral for ratings. I find them soulless. Khloe loves Lamar and I was shocked she fell into line with Kris and just became another Kim desperate for fame and ratings.

      Lamar is a good guy who just had demons and horrible addictions he couldn’t kick. It’s sad.

    • Mrs Odie says:

      Drugs undoubtedly available for an extra cost on the brothel’s menu. I’ll bet the fat, bald pimp is shitting bricks right now.

  44. iheartjacksparrow says:

    I wish the media would stop saying Kobe left the Lakers game early to visit Lamar in the hospital. Kobe left the game early because he wrecked his knee (i think that’s the correct body part). He might have then gone to the hospital, but that was not the reason for leaving the game.

    • Colette says:

      Kobe didn’t have to go that hospital for a contusion also The Lakers GM accompanied him to the hospital.They went to that hospital to be at Lamar’s bedside.That is not the closest hospital to the MGM arena.If Lamar didn’t have his crisis Kobe would have stayed at the game.So he left the Arena because of LO

  45. Pmnichols says:

    There is no need to play the blame game at this point. He had his demons and only they know what went on during/after their marriage. I pray for his children, their mother and all who truly care for him. This is terrible. He was/is a kind soul who got lost. Hopefully it doesn’t end for him this way.

  46. KayLastima says:

    Geez, this family, THIS FAMILY!!! Lamar struggled mightily as a human being, yes, but how much onus does PMK and her band of banshees share in the portrayal of Lamar on their Dispicable Me show?? My guess is quite a lot. They are of the “if it bleeds it leads” ilk. ANYTHING for money and exposure, even actual exposure. Those women are not shy about using any part of their body for ratings. Underage sex for ratings?? Exploit a man’s extreme struggles??? Berate your own son while putting Miss Porn on a pedistal?? Sure. No problem. Ah, where do we sign . . . and hand over that check!!

    I guess I was prescient when I canceled my Cosmo subscription yesterday after the shock wore off and I realized it wasn’t a Halloween joke that this evil family was on the cover. I just wish that this was not what I woke up to today. I am saddened and heart broken for Lamar’s family.

  47. I once had a very lengthy surgery, was on anesthesia and completely paralyzed. For several hours I could hear every word the doctors were saying–a couple times I tried to correct them, and couldn’t make a sound. Because of this experience, I have been praying for Lamar. I believe even though his organs are dead or dying, his soul is hearing our prayers until they pull the plug and he departs the body.

    • Christin says:

      They say hearing is the last sense to go, and your experience supports that. I had a cousin who was in a lengthy coma in her 20s, who later told us things that were said (and she was correct).

      I truly hope everyone at his bedside understands that and uses that sense for his good and not their own selfish reasons.

    • Nik says:

      Wow real account. This gave me chills. I’ll pray peace.
      i feel so sorry for Lamar his kids and dad. I know Khloe loved him and it’s sad that public opinion of this family and their tactless ways takes front page

  48. Lizzieb says:

    He was a great athlete. He should never have gotten involved with Klodze. beginning to think PMK is truly a friend of the devil.

  49. LAK says:

    It’s really sad to end this way.

  50. Saywhatwhen says:

    Meanwhile the DM is making it all about the succubus colony. Kimbocile cancels baby shower to be at Lamar’s bedside. Khloe flies in Lamar’s ex and children. Vomit!!!!!
