As you’ve probably heard, Lamar Odom was found unconscious in his VIP suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Nevada on Tuesday night, and the former NBA star is currently comatose.
Sources at the brothel say Odom was on a bender in the days leading up to his death, indulging in cocaine, opiates, alcohol and drug-fuelled sex with prostitutes.
Now, Radar Online is reporting that Love Ranch employees only saw the tail end of a sex and drugs binge that may have been going on for quite some time.
Workers at various hot spots in the Vegas area tell Radar that Lamar had been partying non-stop for weeks before he collapsed.
“He was spending money like crazy and partying here in our VIP room for a week straight,” says an employee at the Spearmint Rhino strip club. “I heard he was blowing through money like crazy…He was making all the girls drink and party with him.”
Other insiders say at the club say Lamar was blowing through upwards of $ 5,000 a say on liquor and lap dances. They add that he also developed a reputation as a difficult customer:
“My boss asked me to entertain him, but I refused cause I heard he was difficult and demanding,” says one dancer. “A lot of girls refused to work for him.”
Sadly, in the two days since he was hospitalized, Lamar’s condition has only deteriorated, and doctors now say he has about a 50/50 chance of survival.
We’ll keep you updated on Lamar’s condition as more information becomes available.
