Lamar Odom: Axed from Keeping Up with the Kardashians!

Lamar Odom just lost his only source of income.


Or, to put it more accurately and bluntly, Lamar Odom just had his only source of income taken away from him.



Following yet another incident of Odom falling hard of the wagon of sobriety, sources tell Radar Online that the troubled star has been fired from Keeping Up with the Kardashians.


He will not appear on Season 13.


“Kris is not offering Lamar any type of contract for next season or any season thereafter,” a Kardashian family insider tells Radar.


This report comes on the heels of Odom getting kicked off a Delta flight because he could not stop drunkenly puking while on board.


He eventually did touch down in New York City, via a different plane ride, only to then head straight to a strip club.


Members of this famous family that think Lamar “has really disgraced all of them and their show,” according to the same Radar source.



Odom has been estranged from Khloe Kardashian for several weeks now, but he just made a recent appearance on the series.


You can watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online via the video above to see him offer his soon-to-be-ex-wife advice regarding her brother.


It’s worth noting that Odom was only being paid on a “per-diem basis” since his overdose in October, meaning he was not under a full-season contract even before this firing.


However:


“Everyone was hoping that he would pull through this and become a different person, but he has not,” Radar writes, implying that Odom could have earned himself a real contract if he had simply remained on the straight and narrow.


Alas, the guy clearly has a substance abuse problem.


We mean no judgment by that statement.


We sincerely hope Odom finds the help he so obviously needs.


But the Kardashians have only been aiding his abuse, the Radar insider concludes:


“Instead of using the money that he made from filming last season to better himself, he used to keep up his party lifestyle.


“The whole family is just done with him.”

Rihanna Cancels Concert in Wake of Nice Attacks

As you’ve no doubt heard by now, a terrorist attack killed at least 84 people in Nice, France last night.


Rihanna, who was in the area to perform a concert scheduled for this evening, has announced that she will be postpone the event indefinitely out of respect for those who were killed.



The singer posted a photo of the French flag on Instagram last night, along with the following caption:


“Due to the tragic events in #Nice, my concert scheduled for tomorrow July 15 at Allianz Stadium will not be going ahead as planned.  Our thoughts are with the victims and their families.”


Though she was near Nice at the time of the attack, Rihanna was reportedly far from the attack and was never in harm’s way.


Local officials have also cancelled a jazz festival that was scheduled to take place this weekend.


Music legend George Clinton, who was scheduled to perform, offered his “prayers and support” to the people of Nice in a heartfelt tweet.


While countless celebrities were moved by the tragedy, Rihanna was closer to it than any other and is said to be in shock over the senseless act of violence.


For the second time in less than one year, the people of France have been devastated by an act of terror, this one one of the deadliest attacks in recent memory.


Details are still coming in, but early reports indicate the Bastille Day assault was carried out by a 31-year-old French-Tunisian man who drove a semi truck into a crowd celebrating the holiday.


“France has been struck once again in her flesh, on the 14th of July, on the day of our national celebration,” French Prime Minister Manuel Valls said Friday.
