Lamar Odom offers a different account of the events, and he doesn’t hesitate to speak his truth. Appearing on Today With Jenna and Sheinelle on April 6, the former NBA star was asked whether ex-wife Khloé Kardashian had saved his life following his near-fatal overdose at a Nevada brothel in October 2015. His answer was measured but pointed.

“In some ways,” Odom said. “God saved my life. My lord saved my life, honestly.” He was willing to give Khloé partial credit. “She took care of me,” he added, “but God took care of me the most. What I came back from is like a medical miracle.” Khloé also said that when she got to the Nevada hospital, Lamar’s father, Joe Odom, was there and ready to take him off life support. She said she took charge of the situation, put visitation on lockdown, and became the primary decision-maker in his care.

Lamar took particular issue with that characterization of his father. “If you know Joe Odom, I don’t think that’s something that would ever come out of his mouth,” he said. “He was my biggest fan. I don’t know where that got mistranslated. I just can’t see him ever, ever doing that.” Joe Odom passed away in 2021. At the time, Lamar was unconscious for three days, surviving six heart attacks and twelve strokes, and wasn’t able to see what happened at his bedside. However, he does not accept that version of events regarding his father’s supposed actions or intentions at his bedside.

What he does not dispute is the substance of what Khloé did afterward. She stayed at Cedars-Sinai for close to four months. When Lamar was discharged in 2016, she rented a house near her own, hired a live-in caretaker and a chef, and was actively overseeing his rehabilitation, By any measure, that was a serious commitment from a woman who had already filed for divorce before his health scare.

The arrangement ended abruptly. Khloé showed up unannounced one afternoon and recognized the smell of crack from the staircase. She found Lamar in his bedroom. She punched him, told him to be out by Monday, and cut off all financial support. He had, she said, been doing far better than he let on and had used her care to sustain the habit. Lamar told Today he has no memory of that confrontation. “I’m not dismissing that,” he said. What he does seem clear on is where he places the credit for surviving what doctors apparently struggled to explain. The question of who deserves recognition for his recovery is one he has quietly but firmly answered. Khloé played a role. God, in his telling, played the bigger one. Khloé Kardashian’s representative had not responded to press inquiries at the time of publication.

Hailey Bieber Brings Her Beauty Brand Rhodes To Sephora

5 September 2025

Hailey Bieber, having already turned her Rhode beauty brand into a billion-dollar venture, just hit a new milestone, making her skincare and makeup line available in Sephora stores across the U.S. and Canada. The debut took place on September 4, 2025, when Bieber marked the occasion with a Times Square curtain-drop event.

It wasn’t just her business savvy that grabbed attention that day. The 28-year-old mogul leaned into timeless style, arriving at the largest Sephora in the U.S. clad in a silver Donna Karan ensemble from Spring 1996.

Instead of choosing a trendy L.A. boutique, Bieber chose Times Square at Seventh Avenue and 41st Street, the biggest Sephora store in the U.S. The crowd’s excitement was high, with many already out at 9:00 a.m. to show their love, support, and pose in the branded pink photo booth. Surrounded by oversized Rhode products, Bieber turned a brand rollout into an immersive show.

Her love for minimalist fashion was also evident through her looks, from a vintage silver dress to a yellow leather jacket layered over lace, and a relaxed white tee with black pants. Each look echoed her effortless blend of CEO polish and off-duty supermodel cool.

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, the business move could not be ignored. What started in 2022 as a direct-to-consumer line with just three products has exploded into a 16-piece collection now stocked in Sephora. Rhode has become Sephora’s biggest skincare launch in North America, a testament to Bieber’s vision, and strategic execution.

“My goal since day one has been to bring Rhode to as many people as possible, however they prefer to shop, whether that’s online or in-person,” said Hailey, who is Founder, Chief Creative Officer and Head of Innovation of Rhode, and Strategic Advisor to e.l.f. Beauty. “Sephora, with its global footprint, was the perfect partner to help bring my vision to life.”

The strategy paid off quickly. Products like the Peptide Lip Tint, Pocket Blush, Glazing Milk, Glazing Mist, and Barrier Restore Cream, which were exclusively sold on the internet through the brand’s own site, are now front and center on beauty shelves. This marks the brand’s first expansion into the retail market.

Looking ahead, beyond the U.S. and Canada, there are plans for the products to be available at Sephora UK this fall. By merging commerce with performance, Hailey Bieber has turned a beauty brand debut into a full-blown spectacle and moved the game forward. Rhode is no longer just skincare; it is now part of the beauty mainstream, visible, tactile, and poised to glow in every shopping cart it lands in.
