Whether anyone likes it or not, reality TV is here to stay and for as long as there are cameras, there will always be someone ready for their close up. The following personalities are repeat offenders. One reality TV show just isn’t enough to satisfy their thirst.

Karlie Redd
Karlie is a lot of things and one of them is persistent. She’s been trying to make it happen for many years and hasn’t missed an opportunity. In 2010, Karli got a spot on VH1’s show, “Scream Queens.” The reality show was looking for an actor to star in the latest entry to the Saw franchise. She got eliminated but got the exposure. These days, Karli’s on Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta and still looking for her chance and a producer for her music, even if she needs a clue that the singing career is just not gonna work…

It’s always nice to be able to make that money and take your little one along with you! That’s what mama Tia Mowry-Hardrict did a couple of days ago when she hosted TheBump and AMC Theatres’ “Bring Your Baby Matinees” event in Cali. She of course brought along the very cute and funny Cree who tried to play shy in front of the cameras. He’s such a cutie, and looks just like his dad Cory!

Caught perusing around town in NYC was reality star Khloe Kardashian and her step-daughter, Destiny Odom. The two were laughing (or as I like to say, ki-king it up) down the street as they showed off their high buns and interesting style. Loving that lime green bag Khloe is rocking, and Destiny’s denim jacket with spikes is fresh as well. Doesn’t she look just like her dad?

And last in the cute kid lineup is Sydney, the adorable baby who belongs to Laila Ali and her former NFL playing husband, Curtis Conway. The 1-year-old munchkin is seen here with her grandfather, boxing legend Muhammad Ali. He’s showing her some love and definitely, this picture is oozing cuteness. Don’t you agree?

At least one Kardashian has her priorities straight it seems. According to a number of reports Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have decided to pull the plug on their “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” spinoff reality show due to the effect on Lamar’s career.

After being traded from the Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks last year, Lamar had one of the worst seasons of his NBA career, only starting in four out of 50 games before being placed on the inactive list mid-season. Sources reportedly told HollywoodLife last month:

“Lamar never thought being part of a reality show would have such an impact on his life. At the beginning, Lamar thought it would be fun to be part of the show. But when he got let go from the Lakers, he realized the show was nothing but a distraction.

“The show started taking a toll on Lamar and Khloe’s relationship when he got traded. It was kind of a wake-up call for Lamar. He’s scared about his future and his career.”

Take note Kanye.

This news comes just a week after The Kardashian Klan signed a three-year, $40 million deal for their original series “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” which makes the timing rather interesting, but a rep has said Khloe and Lamar haven’t officially called it quits for their series, it’s just “on hold.”

“It has NOT been cancelled,” the rep told PEOPLE. “It’s just on hold now while schedules are figured out. It will depend on their schedules, as Lamar’s basketball schedule is a priority.”

Hopefully Lamar has a basketball schedule to adhere to. According to USA Today, he’s at least hoping to make the U.S. Olympic team for this summer’s London Games and with the number of injured players who have been removed from the roster, he may get his chance.

After watching a few episodes of their show for the first time last night, Khloe does seem to be genuinely supportive of Lamar’s career so the likelihood of a season 3 coming soon seems pretty slim.

What do you think about the couple pulling the plug on “Khloe and Lamar?”

This isn’t the first appearance of the ombre trend on the scene, but it sure has gained a strong following. The trend has bounced from clothing, to nails, and, most recently, landed on hair. The look was originally worn by women that were growing out their light hair color or by those that were a bit lazy with the touch ups. Well, looks like they have the last laugh because the ombre style has evolved into a purposeful style that many celebs are showing off on the red carpets. Go figure!

Teyana Taylor (pictured above) looks great as she pushed the trend to the extreme with pastels, but the rest of our list is full of trendsetters that embrace more natural hues. Let’s all lighten up and get inspired!

While it sounded like a beautiful relationship on paper, Lamar Odom and the Dallas Mavericks have broken up. And if you were wondering who broke up with who, they’re both claiming it was a “mutual agreement.” As Odom told ESPN, it is “in the best interest of both parties for me to step away from the team.”

The husband of Khloé Kardashian, reality TV star and popular power forward was only with the Mavericks for four months (in a season that was shortened by last year’s lockout), but in reality, he never really got off to a good start with the team. After spending years as a Laker, winning championships and even obtaining the coveted Sixth Man of the Year Award, the team not so quietly (though they tried to be slick about it) tried to ship Odom to the New Orleans Hornets, only to quickly have him sent packing to the Mavericks after the trade was vetoed. Feeling unwanted, Odom was pretty open about the fact that he felt disrespected by his former team, and I guess he took that attitude down South. Throughout the season, Odom played like he was out of it, and fans noticed it according to the good folks at AP.

“Odom never seemed happy or comfortable in Dallas, not even when wife and reality TV co-star Khloé Kardashian was in the stands just a few feet from the Mavericks bench. His averages of 6.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 20.5 minutes were career lows, and he was booed by the home crowd as the sluggish performances multiplied. The low point appeared to come Saturday night, when he played just four minutes in a 94-89 loss at Memphis. Asked after the game about the situation, Odom simply shrugged his shoulders.”

Damn. You know things are all bad when the home crowd doesn’t even want to show you love, but when you don’t show up and show out, don’t expect open arms. But Odom has had a tough season with personal tragedies and distractions. While the Mavericks lose their best backup for Dirk Nowitzki, Odom is left without a job and will most likely be deemed inactive for the rest of the season. Granted, the NBA season will only last for a few more months, but still, I’m sure he’s not too happy about that.

In response to her husband’s current situation and the reality that they’ll probably need to leave Dallas, Khloé told the world her feeling’s on her husband’s treatment via Twitter. According to US, she said, “You deserve so much better.  Know your worth and know your skills that have been proven and earned! You showed your strength, I love you…Why do I always have to leave when there is so much to do. I love Dallas ”

In the few times that I’ve watched “Khloé & Lamar,” Khloe has always seemed like she was down for whatever when it came to her man, but I’m wondering if this situation (and the constant moving they seem to always have to do) will affect her? All she can do at the moment is be supportive, but we know if this was Kim, somebody’s lawyer would be getting called, and some PR statements would be sent out. But Khloé does seem different and very likable, so I’m sure she’ll roll with the punches. They do still have their reality show (where I’m sure the drama of this situation will be played out on), though some say Odom’s involvement on the show could have hurt his appeal with the Mavericks. But even if he didn’t have that, I’m sure big momma Kris could always hook him up with something…

I’m sure you’ve heard the rumors by now that Robert Kardashian isn’t really Khloe’s biological father, and for the most part the talk seemed completely baseless—except for the fact that Khloe looks a lot different from her sisters Kim and Kourtney. But now photos show that she looks a lot like Alex Roldan, the man who is speculated to be her real biological dad.

The eyes, the nose, the lips–they all bear a striking resemblance, and it doesn’t help that her mother, Kris, admitted to having an affair around the time Khloe was conceived. Plus, Khloe’s middle name is Alexandra. Still it’s all circumstantial, aside from remarks from two of Robert’s ex-wives who have spoken out, saying their ex-husband was unsure of Khloe’s paternity.

What’s worse is reports say Khloe already knows Alex, a hairdresser in West Hollywood who has been cutting Kris’ hair for 30 years, is her real father and Kris wants to introduce him as a surprise plot on a “special episode” of one of the Kardashian shows. As sad as that sounds, that’s right up Kris’ alley.

I really like Khloe so I hope she’s handling the news well if it is in fact true. But Kris wanting to profit off of this is just so… Kardashian like.

What do you think about this rumor? Do you think these pics are pretty good evidence that Khloe is Alex’s daughter?

I was a fan of Khloe Kardashian (if we can define fan as someone who preferred Khloe over Kim and Kourtney) until it became clear that she has the same attention-hording ways of her sister Kim. The super-tall sis of the clan came off as the most sensible, straight-shooting member of the cast for the first couple of years of the reality show. While Kim was out getting airbrushed for photo shoots, Khloe was working on keeping the family bonds strong. It seemed that she had the most sense. But now, it’s obvious, she was only acting that way for lack of attention.

Last night’s episode of the Kardashian Wedding Special definitely exposed the hypocrisy that is Khloe, who questioned Kris Humphries’ “intentions” towards her sister. Although Humphries shot back with a “you should not be questioning other people’s marriages,” he didn’t have the guts to really drill it into her head that her own wedding was seen as a sham. As you may recall, Khloe met and married Lamar Odom in less than 30 days. It was obviously a publicity stunt to horde attention on the girl who rarely got any, compared to her sisters. Now that it is Kim’s time to walk down the aisle, Khloe is feeling “protective.”

It’s obvious that Khloe is extremely jealous and not happy about her sister also getting married. I never understood sibling rivalry. I only wish the best for my own sisters and would not only be proud by their achievements but also relieved (just like a mother would be).

It’s a wonder how Khloe did not restrain her words from fear of being called out herself. Who really believes the Odom married her purely for love? It’s obvious that the L.A Laker came up from his one-shot cameo on Entourage to becoming a household name all because of the Kardashian association. I don’t know any of these people up close but if anything, Humphries comes off as the most sincere of the bunch.

What do you think ladies? Was Khloe acting out of jealousy or out of love when she warned Kim K about her soon-to-be?

(Eurweb.com) — Just in time for Valentine’s Day, Lamar Odom and his reality star wife Khloe Kardashian are releasing a new unisex fragrance. Named Unbreakable, the scent features chocolaty notes that work for both genders, according to People.com.  “He’s always wanted a unisex fragrance!,” Khloé recently told E! online about her NBA player hubby. “It took a long time to create what we both wanted and would wear and love, and we found the perfect one.”
