Lamar Odom has blown at least two romances with famous women.
The former Laker dumped Taraji P. Henson to date Khloé Kardashian — who then divorced him after he had a number of infidelities and almost fatally overdosed.
When Page Six asked him who he’d most like to get back together with, he told us he’d pick the acclaimed actress. “Because I love Taraji. It’s a love thing. It’s about who you love.”
The pair dated in 2009, before he married Kardashian after they’d been dating for just a few weeks.
“Taraji is a cool girl. Matter fact she’s here [in L.A.]. I got to see her at the BET Awards in June. So maybe I’ll get to shoot my shot at her again,” he said.
He added later, “I think the difference between Taraji and Khloe is how they was brought up. Their upbringing, which makes people different and [affects] the way they think. I think Taraji is more skillful in what she does as an actress compared to what Khloé does.”
Ouch.
But he did also say that Kardashian was “a great wife.”
He said in his 2019 memoir, “Darkness to Light,” that he and Henson “started secretly dating and quickly fell in love.” He called it “one of the happiest times of my life.”
The Queens native won two NBA Championships with the Lakers, and also played for the Clippers, Miami Heat and the Dallas Mavericks.
His BET+ reality show “College Hill: Celebrity Edition,” which premiered yesterday, also stars NeNe Leakes and Ray J.
