Did Lamar Choose 2nd Best?

Word on the curb is Lamar Odom proposed to another Hollywood beauty before his whirlwind courting-engagement-marriage to Khloe Kardashian.

The LA sports radio show "Petros and Money" revealed:

“You want to know how in love Lamar is? Word is Lamar was madly in love with another young lady no less than one week before he met Khloe and asked that young lady to marry him and she said, ‘whoa, slow down.’

“This was another celebrity that sees herself grace the pages of TMZ. So you wonder … maybe Lamar had alternate plans and alternate intentions of making himself more of a celebrity than just a dude that plays basketball for the Lakers.

” … One week after he asked another young lady to marry him, he meets Khloe and three weeks later, he asks her to marry him.

” … We’re going to get this story, we’re going to further this story. We’ve planted the seeds on this story and I would say that some time by this time next week, we are going to watch it grow. Watch it bloom.

Oooh, scandalous! But the rumor is the lady love who told him to pump the brakes was Oscar-nominated actress Taraji P. Henson. So far, no one is commenting.

Brew Bits: Raji Gets Racey.......

SOURCE:

Taraji is gettin uncharacteristically sessy for us while dropping some "Raji" science about dating. Seems reasonable......

Offscreen, she's a 38-year-old single mom who says guys she dates are often intimidated. "Most men are fragile," she says. "I'm a successful woman, in the public eye, and raising a kid by myself. It can leave guys feeling like, 'Damn, how can I have a chance?'" Answer: "Just be a man!"

Have a Gentleman's Touch
"A woman is gentle, soft, delicate, and a man's position is to protect her-help her up stairs, make sure she's in the car safely fi rst. Take good care of your woman, and the sky's the limit!"

Avoid Mama Drama
"Date a woman with children only if you are ready to man up, because it's a position that comes with responsibility. If you don't want anything too serious, then stay with women with no kids."

Keep in Touch-Even When
You're Out With the Boys "The worst excuse you could ever use is, 'My phone broke.' Did the 10 other people you were with not have phones? Just make it happen. Even the Bat Cave has a phone!"

Be Her Safety Net
"When I meet a person and that chemistry is there, I cannot hide the electricity. I need to learn more about him, and once I feel safe, I'm gone, I'm in love, and I give it my all!"

Never Give Up on Love
"Don't be bitter if a relationship doesn't work out; it wasn't meant to be. You can't be cut off to love because you're learning and getting closer to the one."

Split Ends?

My "play cousin" Taraji Henson showed up to a recent event rockin' a new curlier do. Reminds me of Rihanna in the top parts. I'm a bob fiend and she had one of the hottest bobs in the game. So what's the verdict on this new do?
