Lamar Odom Relapse? Former NBA Star Removed From Flight After Drinking Excessively At Airport? [VIDEO]
New concerns are arising for Lamar Odom's health and safety today after he was escorted off of a Delta Airlines flight twice for excessive vomiting following an alleged heavy drinking binge in an airport lounge.
TMZ was the first to report that Odom was removed from the flight twice on Monday night, a red eye bound for New York from LAX, after he drank heavily in the Delta Airport Lounge, pounding both beers and whisky before boarding the flight.
Witnesses from the flight told the website that Odom sat in his seat on the plane, but bolted for the from as it was about to pull back and vomited in the galley, then immediately walked to the bathroom and vomited again, before returning to his seat with vomit on his clothes.
Odom was then reportedly escorted off the plane by attendants, and a cleaning crew was working on cleaning up the mess when he suddenly appeared back on the flight and took his seat again. He then reportedly got up and went to the bathroom again, using other passenger's heads as a way of steadying himself as he walked.
One passenger reportedly told a flight attendant that Odom had a bad history with alcohol, and requested that he be kept off the flight to minimize the risk of his dying while on board.
Odom was removed a second time and the flight then took off without him.
Odom's estranged wife, Khloe Kardashian, appeared to respond to the news by posting a sad face emoji on Twitter, and thanking fans as they shared their love with her.
The incident now comes just weeks after Kardashian reportedly kicked him out of the $25,000 a month house she had been renting for him to live in near her own him in Calabasas, after a crack pipe was found in the property, according to the Daily Mail.
Odom was hospitalized for a drug overdose back in October, after he was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel. He had reportedly taken herbal Viagra and been drinking Cognac while partying at the facility, and was discovered in his room by staff the following morning.
