As a member of the Kardashian clan
he courts publicity - even starring in his own breakout reality show.
But it seems Lamar Odom finally
tired of the attention as he turned on the paparazzi in dramatic fashion on
Wednesday.
The towering 6ft10 basketball player
lost his temper as he walked up to a photographer's car and threw all of his
equipment out onto the road. It came amid reports of marital
trouble between Odom and wife Khloe Kardashian, after a woman coming forward to
claim she had a year-long affair with him.
Photographs show the 33-year-old
reality star rifling through the back of a car belonging to one of the
photographers and furiously throwing his camera and equipment into the middle
of the street. Lamar then walked over to another
photographer's car holding what looked like a tripod while the cameraman stood
by, allegedly smashing the car. He then proceeded to pick up the
equipment from the middle of the street and put it in his own car, while
carrying the metal rod.
Witnesses claimed Odom snapped after
demanding to speak 'man to man' with the paparazzi. When they continued to take his
photo, it is claimed, Odom turned on them. A group of people in a celebrity
tour bus happened to be driving past, and the delighted tourists stopped to
watch and film the commotion.
Oddly a fan jumped out of her car after the incident to have her picture taken with the star - and taking a break from his rage he politely obliges. Lamar's angry behaviour is especially bizarre considering the fact he and his wife and her family are known for actively courting the press.
A publicist for the family did not
immediately respond to a request for comment regarding the photos.
However sources close to Lamar's
wife Khloe have confirmed that the split rumours couldn't be further from
the truth.
They're more in love than ever,' a source explains. They added: 'Khloe did not kick Lemar out of the house, they are 100% fine.' According to Star magazine, Khloe had kicked Lemar out of the house after discovering he had been cheating on her since at least January last year.
The report named 29-year-old
brunette Jennifer Richardson, who Lemar supposedly met at the Stadium Club
strip club in Washington D.C. after he played a game for the Dallas Mavericks.
