Lamar Odom: Drug Problem? What Drug Problem?
Despite all of the reports, witnesses and rumors, Lamar Odom still claims that he does not have a drug problem.
The 33-year-old NBA player spoke out about his alleged drug problem for the first time to a TMZ cameraman. The paparazzo filmed Odom out and about with some friends in Studio City, California.
The paparazzo asked Lamar how he was doing, and also mentioned that a lot of his fans are worried about him. Odom simply replied with, “Nah, I’m good.” And then the cameraman asked him if he had a drug problem, Lamar said no and stated he doesn’t need professional help.
At one point during the video, Odom even claimed that “life is good” and he also added that he has spoken to his wife since all of the rumors came out, “Of course! That’s my wife. Of course.” He said.
Clearly, the dude is in denial. I mean, did we really expect a drug addict to admit that they have a problem? He’s not going to come clean to some random dude on the street with a camera. I’m sure a lot of friends and family have tried to help him, but he’s obviously not ready.
Who knows, maybe this is some big prank put on by Jimmy Kimmel again. How can we trust anything anymore? I’m always going to be waiting for Jimmy Kimmel to come in with his fire extinguisher.
