Yeah, he drugged himself to coma with illegal drugs, wasted thousands of dollars on hospital and careflight resources and the cops are assholes.
Spending all your money on Hookers and Blow is such a great idea? Rrrriiiiigggghhhhhttttt.
Scott and Kourtney were never married to each other. Khloe and Lamar, while separated and having signed divorce papers, are not legally divorced yet.
I wonder if his kids have been to see him?
Why is her size in any way relevant to this story? So relevant to you even, that “it would be ridiculous” not to bring it up?
Did you read the quote that I started my post with? Or the other posts? If you had, you’d answer your own question. Typically things make more sense if you look at them in context instead of grabbing a single fragment out.
Even if you didn’t start the hijack, you’re the poster that said it would be ridiculous not to bring up her size.
I’ll bet Hoff jacks the price up on that room and pimps it as “The Odom Death Suite”. He’s classy like that.
I heard some pretty sad stories about Odom on the radio last night. As mentioned, his dad was a drug addict. In 2006 he had a 6 month old son that died in his crib (SIDS). In 2010, the day after attending the funeral of his cousin, he was in an auto accident where a motorcyclist was killed. And of course his best friend died a few months ago. Say what you want about the guy, but that’s a rough stretch I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
Lamar has multiple millions, 30 according to celebrity net worth, I heard on the radio that his stay at the hooker ranch cost $75,000. That’s chump change even to someone like me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!!! Sure it may not have worked out so hot for LO but let’s not go throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
At least until AFTER I’ve given it a try.
One a serious note, this truly sucks. Yet it’s not surprising. There were multiple PUBLIC incidents that showed Lamar on this road. I would there there hundreds if not thousands of private red flags that should have warned the people around him.
(sigh)
He’s known for two things- a once very promising, now failed basketball career that he was trying to get back on track but was being stymied by ongoing personal and substance abuse issues, and being married to a Kardashian sister. If you have managed to avoid knowing much about the sisters, a reasonable question like ‘which one is he married to?’ becomes difficult.
“The one with the dark hair. Well, sometimes it’s lighter, or blonde.” That’s four of them right there.
“The youngest one.” They’ve all had so much work done, there’s no way of telling who’s the youngest anymore. Even the youngest one, recently turned 18, looks like she’s in her late 20s.
“The one not banging a rapper.” That leaves three to choose from- even mom is banging a rapper.
“The one who doesn’t have a sex tape.” Depends on what sources you believe, but that leaves you either three or four sisters.
The only thing left is the thing she’s known for, the thing that she herself has used as a descriptor, the thing that she has had a public, widely-reported struggle with for most of her life- her weight. The other sisters are known for being tiny overall and having huge asses; Khloe was known for just being a big girl. By saying “Odom is married to the fat sister”- again, a descriptor she herself uses- it helps answer the question ‘which nearly-identical-looking sister is he married to?’ which, in case you hadn’t noticed, was the original question that was asked.
And before you say “what does it matter who he’s married to?”- look at all the news stories and compare how many times they mention his basketball career vice how many times they mention he’s married to a Kardashian. Right or wrong, that’s what most people associate him with (which is one reason why it’s surprising this got moved from Cafe Society).
Not surprising to me. I’ve never watched a show with a Kardashian in it, didn’t know he was married to one, and if you asked me what a Kardashian is, I would think you were talking about the Cardassians from Deep Space Nine.
On the other hand, when I heard about Lamar Odom being found unconscious, my first thought was, “Oh, yeah. The basketball player.” He was a basketball player before he married a Kardashian, so that’s what some people are going to care about more.
I’m in complete agreement with this:
He’s experienced a lot of grief and heartache in his life and what has happened is a tragedy. I hope he beats the odds and makes a successful recovery.
Sigh is right. It’s been almost two days and in a thread about Lamar Odom having multiple strokes and being in a coma, you’re still talking about which Kardashian is the fattest. And you added in that she’s not the one ‘banging a rapper’.
Classy.
You’re right. I forgot that all discussions here take place in a complete vacuum, that there are never, ever side conversations in a thread (particularly when there’s been no additional news to further a story along), that people are only allowed to be spoken exceedingly well of, that no one can possibly skip any posts that are made, and that when directly addressed we’re supposed to just ignore it and let the comment hang. My fault.
I’ve got no problem with side conversations or thread drift, but this thread, almost immideatly, turned into a topic about which sister is the fastest and who’s ‘banging a rapper’.
Considering I took out some of the she’s not fat and/or this has nothing to do with anything posts, the ‘she’s fat’ posts have consumed about 10% of the thread.
Also, honestly, I think we all know that last post was just going out of your way to slam all of them. “The one not banging a rapper”? That’s no different then me describing you by saying "he’s the the guy banging [the fat chick/the dumb girl/that short girl with the ratty hair/something I don’t like about your wife]'. If someone that doesn’t know them wants to know who she is, they could just google her, or you could post a picture of them and point out which one she is.
I’m not that thrilled that I’m defending the Kardashians, but I don’t think it’s fair that they’re being slammed for no particular reason here.
moronic ramblings from someone excusing the idiotic actions of a multi-millionaire druggie
And the complaints about the ‘she’s fat’ (which I actually went out of my way to point out that she’s worked hard to lose a great deal of weight, and good for her!) posts take up another what percent?
Also, I’m a girl. Point in fact, a before-weight-loss Khloe-sized girl. Who is not (god help me) ‘slamming’ the Kardashians- can you point out something I’ve said that’s untrue? Or is it my choice of words that bothers you? I’m not going to censor myself for your delicate sensibilities- and I would not recommend you listen to any of the songs that Tyga has written about his relationship with the actual youngest sister. “Banging” is a step up.
Now, to make you feel better and mess up your statistics… doctors are saying the length of time he’s been in the coma does not say good things about his prognosis- the longer he’s in it, the less chance of recovery, so it’s really not looking good. Regardless of whether he wakes up or not, he’s suffering/suffered extensive organ damage, so it’s likely his basketball career is finished. His children and the children’s mother- who he is in the midst of a very, very ugly custody battle with- went to the hospital today, and despite the fact that they do not get along, they were all in the same room with Khloe. Who, by the way, has not left his side, despite the fact that they had a particularly nasty public encounter a few weeks back, so good for her because that takes a lot of strength.
My last post on this point. It’s not what you’re posting, it’s that your posting it (and defending it), more specifically, in this thread. I don’t know you’re family, but imagine if your husband were in a coma and one of his friends said ‘was he married to the fat sister or the one with the dark hair’ (you being the fat sister)? In general, most people would say, "he was married to [name] and/or pull out a phone and find a picture of you to jog their memory, not describe you by your weight. But if you want to have a discussion about the Kardashians (and their weight), go nuts, this just seems like a really strange place for it. Most of the time, when celebrities get very sick, very suddenly, the discussion isn’t about the weight of their spouses.
Hey, Khloe Kardashian is watching her husband die, let’s talk about how fat she used to be!
