Khloé Kardashian Says E! Series ‘Khloé & Lamar’ Was All Lamar Odom’s Idea-May 2024

When a Kardashian thinks there are too many cameras around you, it might be time to reevaluate your thirst for fame.

On Tuesday, March 31, Volume 4 of sports documentary series Untold, created by Wild, Wild Country brothers Chapman and Maclain Way, premieres on Netflix with The Death Life of Lamar Odom.

The Death Life of Lamar Odom, directed Ryan Duffy, brings viewers back to 2015, when the recently retired NBA star and the husband of Khlo Kardashian was found unresponsive at the Love Ranch, a brothel outside Las Vegas. The doc features (separate) interviews with Khlo Lamar, partially in which the now-divorced couple discuss, well, Khlo Lamar. Kardashian says the 2011-12 E! reality show was completely Odoms doing.

Khlo Lamar was not my idea. Khlo Lamar was led very much by Lamar. I was spread really thin, Khlo says. I also didnt really want it to jeopardize the family brand, which was [Keeping Up with the Kardashians] at the time. I thought there were so many Kardashian shows.

Odom, meanwhile, wanted (at least) one Odom show.

This is how I wanna live, Odom says in the doc of witnessing the Kardashian celebrity and lifestyle up close. At the time, Odom was well known in Hollywood as a two-time NBA Champion with the Los Angeles Lakers (2009, 2010) and the NBAs Sixth Man of the Year (2011) but he wasnt Kardashian-famous. Not yet.

Odom had a plan, one he relayed to childhood buddy Shannon Pumpkin Brown, who occasionally appeared on Khlo Lamar, at his actual wedding to Kardashian.

He was explaining the moves he was doing, Brown says in the doc, recalling a conversation he and Odom had at the very-Hollywood affair. He was doing it to better his future.

Part of the deal was that, if I marry you, fuck it, I want in on it too, Odom says of his and Khlos very public high-speed romance.

Who says romance is a lost art?

Lamar loves a camera, Khlo says.

OK, so maybe her and probably you when you watch The Death Life of Lamar Odom.

The Death Life of Lamar Odomis executive produced bythe Ways, Duffy, Ben Silverman, Howard Owens, Isabel San Vargas, Jeff Jenkins and Shondrella Avery. Jake Graham-Felsen and Carolyn Craddock are co-executive producers of the film, which hails from Propagate and Stardust Frames Productions.

Untold: The Death Life of Lamar Odom premieres one week from today on Netflix. Untold: Vol. 4 continues the following week with the excellent Chess Mates (April 7), ahead of Untold: Jail Blazers (April 14) and season finale Untold: The Shooting at Hawthorne Hill (April 21).
