Lamar Odom engaged to Khloe Kardashian

LA TIMES
September 21, 2009

Lamar Odom isn't a free agent off the court either.

After a whirlwind six-week courtship, the Lakers forward is engaged to be married to reality TV star Khloe Kardashian.

"Khloe and Lamar want to get married before Lamar has to go away for training, and the season starts up [this fall]," a source told Us Weekly. "They are hoping to pull together a wedding within the next few weeks so they can get married and have a honeymoon."

And Kim Kardashian, Khloe's more famous sister, seems happy about the union.

"They're very, very happy," Kim told People.com. "They are literally inseperable. Khloe thinks he's amazing and makes her laugh and smile constantly."

But the best news: Finally Vanessa Bryant will have someone to hang out with during games.

This has disaster written all over it.

Solid decision making by Lamar.  I mean, why take more than six weeks deciding on the biggest committment of your life?

at the risk of spreading rumors, isnt she pregnant?  and not with his kid?

edit: nvm, I guess that is a diff Kardashian.

Anytime you can marry a girl who slightly resembles a Yeti/Bigfoot type hybrid, and comes from a family with a long history of making terrible decisions, and has a solid background in trying to gain fame out of absolutely nothing through reality shows and maintaining herself in proximity with famous people, AND you're getting a girl who wasn't good enough for Rashad McCants...you have to take that shot.

Kudos, Lamar.  You are truly one of America's great decision makers.

Kardashian: +1
Lakers/Odom: -1

A true Win-Lose proposition.  Kardashian drums up media mentions which might benefit her reality show; Odom & Lakers have to deal with any fallout.  Sigh. Why is life so simple here on the East Coast??

God willing, we've got a Doug Christie for the new generation.

TP, that was funny.

At least she's not a golddigger; it was probably her lawyer who demanded the prenup.

Best case scenario, Khloe and Vanessa Bryant hate each other, it takes a major toll on Kobe and Lamar's relationship, the two refuse to speak to one another, then refuse to pass to one another, then Kobe demands a trade, you never know...

I am sure that she can supply him with plenty of candy.  The NBA better watch out
