We all have made bad judgment in our lives, but Lamar Odom has a very specific one. 

The former NBA star revealed that he regrets the way his relationship with Taraji P. Henson ended. In a clip from TV One’s Uncensored, he admits that he dumped Taraji for Khloé Kardashian — and he wishes he could do things differently. 

“She was a little older than me, but I learned a lot from her because that was the most significant relationship as a grown up that I had with a black woman,” he said of the Empire star. “I used to carry her picture on the road with me. Don’t know anybody knew that.” 

“A black woman working like that, that is just as good at her craft that I’m as good at my craft,” he said. “I remember we were on the road, our longest road trip, and we were playing Cleveland. And I went off on they ass. But what I’m getting at, one of my inspirations that’s part of my inspiration for me going back to see her, going back to L.A., was one of the reasons I kicked their ass that day. I remember how I was feeling during that day and after that game, and she just inspired me.”

He added, “Things ended with Taraji because me being an immature punk, I didn’t know how to tell her I was falling in love with another woman named Khloé Kardashian.” 

Lamar wrote about Khloé in his book, Darkness to Light: A Memoir, “For a while, being with her was bliss and I was the happiest I’ve ever been. We were one of the most famous couples in Hollywood and we made more money together than we had individually.”

Hey, the only reason we need to look at our past is so we can build a better future. The future is bright, Lamar! Everything happens for a reason.
