Lamar Odom’s father Joe has glossed over his own struggles with addiction to blame the Kardashians for his son Lamar’s alleged issues with crack cocaine.
The former postal worker, who has been estranged from his child for large periods of time, says that the 33-year-old NBA star’s predicament is all down to his involvement with the Kardashians.
Joe, 56, believes his son has been ‘cursed’ since he married Khloe, now 29, in 2009.
In an interview with Radar Online, he failed to take any responsibility for his son’s problems and instead issued blistering invective in the direction of the Kardashian clan.
The misogynistic rant reached it’s apogee when he called the family ‘momager’ Kris Jenner, 57, a ‘bitch.’
He said: ‘Someone’s got to speak out, I’ve got to do something about this. It’s simple. They brought him down.
‘He would be better off without them. Let him go and get his life together. I think the best thing for him would be to have a clean break, divorce Khloe and as a single man try and get his life back together.’
He added: ‘The mother has been talking a lot of trash about my son, saying he’s on drugs and stuff like that.
‘She’s got something against my son, something against my family. Kris Jenner is very negative. She’s an evil b***h. She doesn’t care about Lamar, she just cares about their image and money.’
Joe even infers the famous family caused the situation to begin with.
When asked if the Kardashians use drugs, Joe said: ‘I blame Kris in particular, she’s been through a lot of stuff herself. She’s no Cinderella.
‘I can’t really say if the Kardashians are doing drugs, but my son would never use hard drugs. I can’t pinpoint right now who’s giving it him, but I’m going to investigate. The Kardashians haven’t been a good influence on my son.’
He continued: ‘They don’t give a f*ck about my son. It’s more about the damage they do to the Kardashian brand. They brought him down. He’d be better off without them. Let him go, get his life together.’
He also attacked Khloe’s popular public persona and said: ‘I wish he had never got married to Khloe to be honest. She’s controlling. Those Kardashian women all are. You get married they think they wear the pants. You just bring them your whole paycheck, that’s how it works.
‘I saw her totally differently when I heard the way she talked privately. It isn’t pleasant. In public she’s nice, but if you see her personally you see the real person come out of her.
