Lamar Odom Recalls Khloé Kardashian “Beating [A] Bitch Ass” After Catching Him Cheating

Throughout her life, Khloé Kardashian has endured some seriously tragic relationships. Not only was she done dirty by her Canadian baby daddy (on numerous occasions), but she was also cheated on by her ex-husband, Lamar Odom, countless times throughout their union.

By now, it’s no secret that the reality stars were toxic to each other. The athlete has been candid about his severe addiction issues, even recently describing drugs as his “girlfriend” in his marriage to the Good American founder.

According to Odom, Kardashian knew about his bad habits for at least part of their time together. “You can’t hide that forever,” he previously said in a teaser for his Sex, Drugs, & Kardashians documentary on Hulu. “Behind the scenes, I put her through some sh*t. The things that y’all think y’all know, it’s crazy. But the stories that y’all don’t know is really crazy.”

Since that project aired earlier this month, the 43-year-old has been making rounds discussing some of the hot topics brought to light. Among them are his past infidelities, which Lamar reveals once caused his wife to get physical with another woman.

When asked about the craziest night of his life, the New York native immediately had a story to tell. “Khloé, she came into this motherf*cking hotel room… I was at the hotel room with some other women, she came in and she started beating a bitch’s ass!”

At this point, Odom admits he doesn’t know how Kardashian found him but says she started “f*cking the [other] girl up” on sight. “I had to get her off the girl. I’m thinking about someone pressing charges, TMZ,” he recalled. Afterward, the other woman in the situation reportedly didn’t contact the police.

In the same interview, the former NBA star was asked how many times he was actually caught cheating. “Two,” he confirmed. “That’s not bad, she seems like a forgiving person,” the host said in response.

While Odom continues to reflect on his past marriage to the mother of two, her energy has been going towards a different ex – Tristan Thompson. The NBA star’s mother, Andrea, died suddenly in Toronto earlier this month. After the news broke, he and the socialite were seen flying to Canada to deal with the aftermath.

Lamar Odom Says That Dennis Hof Tried To Kill Him

Lamar Odom says that the late Dennis Hof tried to kill him with drugs at the Nevada brothel where he infamously overdosed in 2015. Speaking with TMZ, the former NBA star remains adamant that didn’t use illicit drugs that night.

Odom recalled the night in question for the upcoming TMZ Presents: Lamar Odom: Sex, Drugs & Kardashians.

As for why Hof would want him dead, Odom admitted, “I don’t know.”

“This only what I can tell you,” Odom continued. “I went there– I didn’t do drugs there. I wound up with drugs in my system.”

When asked about “the first night,” that Odom spent at the Love Ranch South in Pahrump, Nevada, he clarified, “There was only one night as far as I’m concerned. I got there, had the drink, and woke up three days later ripping tubes out of my neck not knowing how I got there.”

As for how positive he is he that didn’t do any illicit drugs, he replied: “As much as I’m positive I’m a Black man sitting in front of you.”

Elsewhere in the upcoming interview, Odom reflected on his past relationship with Khloé Kardashian. Speaking candidly about the marriage, Odom admitted that things were even more “crazy” behind the scenes than in the public eye. The two were together from 2009 through 2013. Their divorce was officially finalized in 2016.

Odom has admitted in the past that he’d like to get back together with Kardashian if given the opportunity.

TMZ Presents: Lamar Odom: Sex, Drugs & Kardashians will premiere on Fox, on Monday night, at 9:00 PM, ET. Check out a trailer for the program below.

Lamar Odom Admits He’s Embarrassed Over Cheating On Khloé

Lamar Odom says that his behavior during his relationship with Khloé Kardashian is even more “crazy” than the public knows. The former NBA star reflects on his cheating scandal during the upcoming TMZ Presents: Lamar Odom: Sex, Drugs & Kardashians.

“Behind the scenes, I put her through s—. Like, s— that y’all don’t know,” he admits, according to an exclusive preview from PEOPLE. “The s— y’all know, what y’all think y’all know, it’s crazy. But the stories that y’all don’t know is, like, really crazy.”

Odom continues: “I’d have these random women coming out. Some of them all came out at one time.”

“I’m, like, laughing out of embarrassment right now,” he adds. “Like, how you thought you was going to get away with that one?”

Odom and Kardashian married in 2009 and stayed together through 2013.

In the years since their breakup, Odom has routinely admitted his regret for how he handled their relationship. In 2022, Odom said that he still hopes they’ll rekindle their relationship eventually.

“I would probably just want to take her to dinner,” he shared on Celebrity Big Brother. “It would be a blessing just to be in her presence to just tell her I’m sorry and what a fool I was. She has the right to never see me again for the things I put her through, but time moves on and people change. I would say I’m a lot more loyal now.”

TMZ Presents: Lamar Odom: Sex, Drugs & Kardashians will premiere on Monday at 9:00 PM, ET on Fox.

Lamar Odom Says Drugs Were His “Girlfriend” In Marriage To Khloé Kardashian

He’s already shared his most controversial, intimate moments in his memoir, but Lamar Odom has more of his private life to share. There was a time when he was sitting at the top of the sports world as a Los Angeles Laker, but his addictions would get the better of him. The NBA star was famously married to Khloé Kardashian from 2009 to 2016, but their wedded bliss dissolved due to his sex and drug addiction.

While Odom has already detailed much of his memoir Darkness to Light, these days, he’s readying Sex, Drugs, & Kardashians. The film will air on FOX, then Hulu, and in a teaser, Odom sits down with TMZ‘s Harvey Levin.

“Drugs, that was my girlfriend,” said Odom. “I had a wife and cocaine.”

The former Lakers star also admitted that his ex-wife was well aware of his addictions during a portion of their marriage.

“You can’t hide that forever,” he added. “Behind the scenes, I put her through some sh*t. The things that y’all think y’all know, it’s crazy. But the stories that y’all don’t know is really crazy.”

Since his near-death experience, Odom has done much reflecting during his recovery. For years, he has made it clear that, given the opportunity, he would rekindle a romance with Kardashian. During his recent stint on Celebrity Big Brother, Odom recognized his failures in his marriage.

“When I married Khloé, there’s just so many things that I did wrong when it came to that relationship,” he said at the time. “If I could take it back, of course, I’d take it back. It was never my intention to hurt her. My mind and head weren’t in the right place. I wasn’t taking care of myself.”

Sex, Drugs, & Kardashians premieres on FOX on January 2. You can catch it on Hulu the following day.

Lamar Odom And Fake Drake Are Squaring Off In A Celebrity Boxing Match

While Instagram banned Fake Drake — aka Izzy Drake — for impersonating the rapper on his feed (despite an apparent co-sign from Drizzy himself) that’s not stopping the impersonator from continuing to capitalize on his, err… likeness. Celebrity Boxing just announced via TMZ Hip Hop that Fake Drake will be duking it out in the ring with none other than former LA Lakers champ and former Khloé Kardashian beau Lamar Odom.

Izzy would be wise to be careful, assuming he watched Odom totally pound America’s tormented little brother, Aaron Carter in a Celebrity Boxing match last year. Fake Drake has been running his mouth, challenging the real Drake to a $1 million boxing match (which was the likely straw that broke the camel’s back on Izzy’s Instagram account) and apparently Odom did not find this sideshow amusing.

“Man, whassup? I hear this news that this fake lookalike wanna fight my man Drake… Swagger jacker dude,” Odom said in a pre-fight hype video while wearing a Nipsey Hussle shirt. “But my man don’t really get his hands dirty. So what I’m gonna do is I’m just gonna step in the way and take that fight. Get the contract, bring it right to you. Lay you right down. Odom out.”

Meanwhile, Fake Drake’s hype video consisted of him mostly dodging tennis balls. This fight might be over before it even begins. But if anything, Fake Drake will have some extra scratch to bet on a fake roulette table.

The Celebrity Boxing match is scheduled to take place on October 15th in either Atlantic City or Miami.
