I could hardly believe the news when I heard it this morning.
Lamar Odom is a crack addict??? Stop it. Really?
Word outta TMZ land is that Klohe Kardashian's hubby of 4 years, Lamar, has been riding the crack train pretty hard for a few years now and I can't beleve they kept it a secret for this long, but they did. When it comes to all things Kardashian, I have to admit to watching the show regularly, as it's a guilty pleasure I won't deny myself. It's completely mindless which makes it incredibly easy for me to step away from my own madness get lost into the madness of their lives. My Guy says they are responsible for the "dumbing down" of America, and I'd be hard pressed to argue with him. Still I watch the show because there is something uncannily engaging about this self-centered, self absorbed, rediculous bunch.
Khloe was always my favorite because of her honest, in your face approach. When she married Lamar after meeting 4 weeks before, no one thought it would last. Khloe and Lamar beat the odds and became fan favorites in the process. I watched the now defunct series, "Khloe and Lamar" and followed their first years as newlyeds. They seemed to have it all, but word now is Lamar had been battling the demons of drug use all the while.
So comes today's report that I read on Sports Illustrated.com that Lamar has been missing for three days and feared to be on a crack-fuled drug binge. TMZ is reporting That Khloe threw Lamar out of their house on Wednesday when Lamar would not coorporate with a planned intervention. Apparently fed up with Lamar's drug use, Khloe gave her husband an ultimatum: Clean up or get out. Odom chose the latter and has not been in contact with anyone since.
Such a shame, really. It would seem that they had a great marriage and life together, but everything is not always as it would seem. I wish them both strength and peace as they travel this ugly road ahead and Ii will hope for the best. Obnoxious or not, rich, spoiled, entitled, overbearing and any other adjective you can attach to the Kardashian moniker, this stuff is real. And stuff this real is hard and has a 50-50 chance of ending very badly.
I don't wish that kind of pain on anyone.

Laram is now the "Rock Candyman"?
you give it 50/50 - that is generous - mostly addicts of any type have about a 1 in 10 chance of getting and staying clean and that is without the celebrity glare ... Amy Winehouse as as an example
Theresa watches the show, and I absorb some of it unintentionally. Other than Bruce, there isn't one single likeable person on it. I can feel myself getting stupider.
21st Century Brady Bunch. Odom sure as hell could afford powder coke.
I need to see evidence that he smoked crack BEFORE he met that awful woman and her awful family. Just because she is our favorite in a family full of butt holes does not make her any less annoying.
