How Lamar Odom & Taraji First Met…
Lamar met Taraji P. Henson in 2008 at a party in Hollywood, CA, and they bonded immediately. However, Taraji made it clear that she was not about to be one of his one of his hit-em-and-stick-em-quick THOTS:
“She was just such a wise woman that she could see right through whatever smooth act I was trying to put on. She refused to be just another conquest, and truthfully, I didn’t want her to be,” wrote Odom.
The two instantly started spending most of their time together and going out publicly, not giving a damn what folks had to say about them. Lamar says they even went to celebrity friends’ homes, like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, just to chill. Yet, they still managed to keep their relationship secret from the masses.

As y’all already know, the NBA legend typically has a thing for non-African American women, but in his book, Lamar kept it real when he admitted that Taraji was the only Black woman he’s ever truly connected with on a romantic tip.
