Kardashians’ Lamar Odom hospitalised after collapse

Former NBA champ and Reality TV regular Lamar Odom was found unresponsive in a Las Vegas brothel and has been hospitalised.

Odom, estranged husband of Khloe Kardashian, has appeared in the series Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Khloe & Lamar. Authorities have not confirmed what was wrong with him and his condition remains unclear, with conflicting media reports about what was in his system.

Odom’s father and two children are with him at the hospital, a source told CNN. Khloe Kardashian, whose divorce from him has not been finalised, will make medical decisions for the former NBA star. The two reportedly signed divorce papers in July.

“When they took him to the Pahrump hospital, the people there told us, ‘He doesn’t look good. He doesn’t look like he’ll make it, and if he does, he won’t be the same,’ ” brothel owner Dennis Hof said.

Hof said the 911 operator instructed him to roll Odom on his side which caused him to throw up.

E! has denied reports cameras are filming any of the crisis.

“Lamar Odom appeared on several seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, as well as two seasons of his own series Khloe & Lamar,” a network spokesperson said in a statement. “We are saddened to hear of his condition, and are sending out thoughts and prayers for his recovery. Keeping Up With the Kardashians is not currently shooting in Las Vegas.”
