Thunder stealing alert! Khloe Kardashian has decided to one-up her pregnant, unmarried sister Kourtney – Khloe’s getting married! This is weird because Khloe’s only been dating her boyfriend, now fiancée, for about a month. The guy is Lamar Odom, and he’s a pro basketball player for the Lakers. I find him cute – he’s got a sweet face, and he’s enormous. The guy looks like he’s about seven feet tall. Anyway, now Us Weekly, People and E! News are all reporting that Khloe and Lamar are taking their whirlwind romance to the next level:
Khloe Kardashian plans to wed beau Lamar Odom, a forward on the Los Angeles Lakers, after about a month of dating, Usmagazine.com has confirmed.
“Khloe and Lamar want to get married before Lamar has to go away for training, and the [basketball] season starts up [this fall],” a source tells Us of Kardashian, 25, and Odom, 29, who met at a party in L.A.
“They are hoping to pull together a wedding within the next two weeks so they can get married and have time for a honeymoon,” continues the source. “They haven’t decided where they will say ‘I Do,’ but they are scouting out numerous locations, including Khloe’s family home in Calabasas, [Calif.].”
Earlier this month, Odom gushed to Us that he was “very happy” with the star of Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami.
“Khloe is smart and beautiful and that is very hard to find,” he added. Kardashian’s sister Kim also approves.
“He’s a great guy!” she told Us of the pair, who have been showing off PDA all over L.A. over the past few weeks.
At Hollywood club Guys and Dolls earlier this month, Kardashian “would pull him up to dance and steal kisses here and there…every time a good song came on,” a witness tells Us.
Odom recently signed a four-year, $33 million contract with the Los Angeles Lakers and helped the team win the NBA Championship in June.

I know a lot of people will suspect that this kind of quickie marriage might mean Khloe is knocked up. Considering they’ve only been dating for a month, if she is pregnant it’s probably only a few weeks along, if that. Fastest. Shotgun. Marriage. Ever. But I’m going to go out on a limb and say that I don’t think she’s pregnant – I bet Khloe and Lamar are just crazy and impulsive, and they haven’t thought it through. I also think this is Khloe’s way of competing with Kourtney. What will Kim do? One sister knocked up, one getting married – Kim is going to have to make another sex tape to compete.
Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom are shown out on 9/8/09 and 9/9/09.
why for the love of God are there so many of them?!
Didn’t he just sign a new deal with the lakers
Where are this guys manager ,agent and lawyer ? so they can knock some sense in to him. I like Khloe , she is the most likeable of the Kardashian but that guys is just stupid , you don’t even get to know the real person after one month of dating , usually after 3 months is that you start getting more comfortable and being more natural.
hope this lasts for them.
sometimes whirlwind romances do.
love is grand.
*eyeroll*
He’d better get a Massey prenup before he says “I do.” 😉
Could this rushed wedding be due to Khloe Kardashian wants to one up on her sisters in an competitive game that seems to always go on between them.
LOL@Viper’s comment.
oh, this will last!
Oh, please. Convenient that this is happening when Sasquatch Kardassian and her pregnant, unmarried sister have a show on E!.
Lamar is not that stupid.
GAAAAAAross!
Reminds of a great saying from a movie.
“You went full retard, man. Never go full retard.”
PUH-LEASE!!!!! she finally found a guy that is
a.) taller than her
b.) weighs more than her
c.) finds her attractive…not that she’s hideously ugly, but you know, it takes a certain kind of person to fall in love with a girl like her…
i think she’s smart enough to know that when you find a guy that meets all those criteria AND she likes the guy in return AND he has money…BIG $$$$$ at that…you keep that guy! DO NOT LET HIM GO!!!! and if that means marry him after only dating him for a month or so, then that’s what it means. i mean, at least, i hope she’s that smart. she seems like one of the more down to earth members of that family, if there is such a thing.
and isn’t it always better to divorce a rich guy than to just simply break up with him?
god this is weird, i don’t know why i am so compelled by this that i am now leaving a SECOND comment for this page but i did want to say that in all the pictures that i’ve seen of them together she does seem to look extremely and genuinely happy with him, like they really like eachother and really enjoy eachother’s company…..and i bet for her, he’s probably one of the first people in her life to see her for HER and to like her for HER, he doesn’t NEED her or her money.
stoopid, stoopid, stoopid!!!
QB, it takes a LOT more than 3 months to get to know somebody. In fact, it takes over a year. But marriages are disposable these days, so people will do idiot things without question. Did I say STUPID? damn, stupid.
“Hi, honey, nice to meet you, baby and marriage? why not!” Oh, maybe because it causes a lot of hurt and a needlessly fecked up child, that’s why not.
Ok while it was a completely different era, I can say that sometimes these things work out. My parents eloped about 6 weeks after being hooked up on a horrible blind date and they are still HAPPILY married 43 years later. No shotgun wedding as I am the oldest @ 41 (and a half). They just knew. They have had their ups and downs but they respect each other and that’s the most important thing that they have shown me and my brother.
Will this marriage last? I doubt it since they are in the limelight but I guess you never know.
Yes Lamar is THAT stupid.
ain’t sibling rivalry grand?
@viper; I dunno if there are more than like ten of them but gawd, it feels like there are many more at times.
Just so you can keep track this one is the giant one who hasn’t got a sex tape or a baby in her tummy. I guess it was either get married to someone you just met or adopt from overseas.
OR it’s love at first sight. I know many find it hard to believe it but it happens and it does last. Mine happened that way (and *online*) and we’ve been in a relationship for almost 7 yrs, living together for 6.5 yrs.
pffft! never mind
I swear it’s like every month there’s a new sister. Like mom procreates, instant adult once birthed.
maybe that’s why kourtney is antsy on getting her baby daddy to propose to her. at least khloe didn’t get pregnant before getting engaged, or did she? 😉
So Rosanna, you’ve been giving away the milk for free for 6.5 years. Any reason(s) why you’re not married or at least engaged?
The marriage relationship is in the heart – living together is loving together. It is all about friendship. Charles and Diana had a big fancy wedding but did not have a friendship which lead to years of misery for both of them.
Yeah. That’s true love. The kind that lasts an eternity. (eyeroll).
Their dad must be rolling in his grave.
I smell another divorce!
Yea, whatever it is, it is – but that picture is the happiest, cutest and most honest looking I’ve ever seen her take.
I say they are no better or worse than any other “celeb” couple.
Kim must be planning something “radical” to get her name back out in front. Cue: something cringe-enducingly awful. Can’t wait!
@23: engaged and marrying in Jan. Any reason you should care to know??
eternalcanadian – who cares if someone is pregnant before getting married these days? It’s not like she’s going to have trouble providing for her baby.
I don’t get why people keep saying “pregnant unmarried sister” about Kourtney. I mean, what is this, 1950? Do we really care that she us unwed? The woman is almost thirty years old, it would be nice if people would stop acting like a woman needs to have some man tied to her just because she us carrying a child.
And good for Khloe, I hope this quick decision turns out for the best for her.
I always thought out of these wackadoos that she was the most sensible. Guess not! It may happen somewhere out in the midwest that you meet & marry after a month & it works out, but where these 2 are from? NO WAY! Even quasi-celebs marriages don’t work out in La-La Land. When are people going to learn to stop marrying so young or after a short time of not knowing the person? I know, never, but come on! Think people!
They look eerily alike – the same face shape, the same set to their jaw, even a similar smile in some of the pictures. No wonder they were attracted to each other.
ewwwww he’s soooooooo ugly
Because he’s the only person I’ve seen that can make her look attractive by comparison ?
They actually make a striking couple. Good for them!
Geez people – she’s not THAT bad, and neither is he. Don’t get me wrong, She’s not the hottest sister of the three but she’s got nice hair and skin as far as I can tell. She might look better if she toned down the makeup and wore just a little more cloth.
Do you think she might be pregnant?? I dunno, her sister is but isn’t getting married yet. One month?!
I predict that they break up within a year of marriage, or don’t make it down the aisle at all.
I don’t think anyone should get married after one month of knowing each other, but I know it happens and sometimes it works out. But when you’re talking about a young reality show nitwit and an NBA player, and a lot of money, fame, publicity, etc, I just don’t see how it couldn’t turn into a disaster.
Hasn’t their mother taught any of these girls anything? I mean, they are all so dysfunctional!
Khloe rushing to secure that $33million. Lamar Odom really is stupid.
I sense racism in some of these replies and it boggles my mind. For one, I didnt know Lamar was a African-American man until I read a comment stating it. I am colorblind to race as EVERYONE should be. I scrolled back up to the picture of Him and his lovely wife and only seen two Human beings, and had to double check to see that his skin tone was dark [after reading a comment stating it].
Its the same with his wife. I didnt realise she was a Caucasian-Armenian-American until it was pointed out either. And for the SAME reason – we are ALL human. I have gone past the color barrier and dont see race at all unless its pointed out to me, everyone should be this way.
As for myself, I to am Human just like everyone else it – and if forced to label myself it is a Irish-American of light skin tone.
