The incident was reported to have taken place on August 8 and the police were called to the home to remove the man.
When confronted by the guards, he made claim that he was the divorced singer’s husband, that he was the father of J.Lo’s twins and that she allowed him to stay in the pool house while she was gone.. He was taken in for psychiatric evaluation.

Chris Brown can spray paint LEGALLY in Hawaii!
Chris Brown took a quick trip down to Hawaii to perform and reportedly he hired a tour guide to take him to a spot in Honolulu where he could spray paint legally.
Clearly, Chris is young and has a mind of his own. But we have to wonder why a young, wealthy, troubled Black man is aligning himself with a notorious LA street gang, whether it's against his probation or not. Nothing good can come of this.......
Kobe Bryant’s Amazing $8.6 Million Mansion (Photos)
We’ve seen Joe Johnson put his mansion up for sale. We’ve seen Gilbert Arenas do it. We even saw Michael Jordan give up his digs. Now it’s Kobe Bryant‘s turn as he’s put his Newport Coast home up for sale for $8.599 million, according to The L.A. Times.
Built in 1997, the home boasts an 850-square-foot gym, a hair salon, a paneled office and library that includes a shark tank, a movie theater, as well as four bedrooms and seven bathrooms in the two-story house. There’s also a swimming pool and spa, along with a fire pit and outdoor kitchen. It features unobstructed ocean and city light views as part of the 8,500 square foot property.
In 1997, the property sold for $1.7 million, so it’s seen it’s worth quintuple since then.
Is Lamar Odom’s marriage in crisis because he’s addicted to Oxycontin?
For months now, the tabloids have been full of stories about Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian’s troubled marriage. Sources say Khloe and Lamar are on the rocks. Sources say she kicked him out of the house. Sources say he was cheating on her with multiple women over the course of like two years. Sources say that Lamar wasn’t even discreet about his infidelities. Sources even say Khloe and her mom went to the home of one of Lamar’s mistresses and attacked the woman. Throughout it all, though, I never heard anything about an alleged drug problem for Lamar. But that’s what TMZ is saying now:
The marriage of Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom is in crisis, and TMZ has learned … the core reason is hardcore drug abuse. Multiple sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ … Lamar has had a problem for 2 years. It got so bad, last August Khloe pressured Lamar to go to rehab. Lamar went to a facility in San Diego, but he was so resistant Khloe hired private investigators to secretly stand guard at the rehab place to make sure he didn’t leave. The P.I.s stood guard 24/7.
Our sources say Lamar constantly threatened to leave and Khloe made several visits to prevail upon him to stay. We’re told after 3 weeks, Lamar left for good.
We’re told Lamar actually stayed clean once he left rehab and was able to play well for the Clippers this past season. But when the season was over, sources say Lamar slipped deep back into hardcore recreational drugs.
As for reports that Lamar was cheating recently, we’re told Khloe is convinced it happened, and she feels she’s been hit with a double whammy … but drugs are the main problem.
As for divorce … neither Khloe nor Lamar has contacted a lawyer. As one source put it, “Khloe is more concerned about saving Lamar than ending her marriage.”
We’re told the situation has become dire. Sources tell us … within the last 2 days, the entire family staged an intervention, trying to convince Lamar to go back to rehab, but he wouldn’t have any of it.
In fact, on Wednesday morning, right after the failed intervention, Khloe threw Lamar out of the house and one of Lamar’s friends is loading Lamar’s stuff in his car as Lamar watched.
We attempted to reach Lamar for comment … so far, no word back.
[From TMZ]
TMZ’s sources are generally very pro-Kardashian, and I feel strongly that they wouldn’t have run with this story unless they were sure of the source, so it’s probably Kris Jenner or something. So… I guess I’ll believe it. Does anyone else wonder if Lamar is just spiraling in total, and that maybe there’s a sex addiction AND drug addiction going on at the same time? Maybe that’s the Kardashian-approved version – it might be easier for us to understand Lamar’s blatant infidelities if we view them through the prism of addiction.
Radar says that Lamar’s drug addiction is all about OxyContin and Ambien. A source says: “Lamar has lost a ton of weight in the last few months which triggered a lot of the concern amongst the family… Lamar does not want to go to rehab because pre-season training camps are just around the corner. He just doesn’t care about anyone or anything right now. He has had it with the Kardashians and just wants to be left alone. Everyone is very, very, worried about him.” Ugh. Damn it, Lamar! Go to rehab and deal with these problems head-on.
UPDATE: TMZ says he’s addicted to crack. Dammit, Lamar! Basically, sources say he’s only been clean when he’s playing but when he’s off-season, he’s been doing hardcore drugs

Kanye West Sued By Paparazzo
The photographer who got into a scuffle with Kanye West at Los Angeles International Airport back in July is now suing the rapper. Daniel Ramos’ lawsuit claims assault, battery, negligence and violation of his civil rights. He said his right hip was injured when Kanye punched him in an unprovoked attack and wrestled his camera to the ground. “I told him twice, `I don’t want to fight you,’” Ramos said. “However, he attacked me anyway.”
The Los Angeles County district attorney’s office has declined to file felony assault and attempted robbery charges against the rapper over the incident because Ramos didn’t have a significant injury. However, the city attorney’s office is considering whether to file misdemeanor charges, reports EW.
Dwight Howard insisted Lakers cut Kobe Bryant and fire coach D’Antoni
Dwight Howard issued several intriguing requests to the L.A. Lakers during free agency. According to reports by ESPN, Howard would only resign with the Lakers if they followed his demands.
The center told Lakers VP, Jim Buss, that he would only resign if the team amnestied Kobe Bryant and fired coach Mike D’Antoni. For those unfamiliar with the NBA’s amnesty clause, it allows teams to cut one player and get rid of his salary without it taking a hit on the team’s salary cap.
Howard was never fond of Bryant and did not want to play another two years with him. Bryant often chastised Howard for his lack of work ethic and unwillingness to take the game serious. Although Howard visited Bryant after his season-ending injury, it was always apparent that the two would never see eye-to-eye on the basketball court.
Howard also had reasons to hate D’Antoni. His offense suffered under D’Antoni’s guard oriented offense. Howard eventually signed with the Houston Rockets.
Bye Bye BBWLA: Gloria & Laura Govan Working On Their Own Show
Basketball Wives LA might be over for the Govan sisters, but they’re not done with reality tv.
In a recent interview, Gloria discussed the new show she and her sister, Laura, had been filming. No more of the ratchet drama with other women…it will be strictly a family affair.
She stated,
“We’re working on a family show – me and my sister, Gilbert, Matt, all of our kids – you know, my sister has got like 18 kids. I [was] just saying “Gosh! You have a lot of kids!” Yeah, it’s really 4. But it feels like 18, because they’re all over the place. So yeah, we’re doing a lot of stuff. We have a lot of stuff that we’re doing together which is really cool.”
When asked if the show would feature any other Basketball Wives, Gloria revealed that’s a NO. It’s all about the Govans!
“So the show would be just the Govans. I mean the Govan sisters and their husbands and their families. You know Gilbert Arenas is one of the greatest players that has played. Matt is obviously, he just came off from one of his best seasons in his entire career so we’re really excited about what that one brings. But really, we just want to show people that the real, true grind of the basketball wives and just being what it looks like to be in that life. Mainly I think it’d really just show us and our families and how much stuff we really have going on.”
So far…..Gloria says the show hasn’t been picked up, but several networks have shown interest.
We imagine it will be similar to LaLa’s Full Court Life, but we expect to see the husbands a lot more than we see Carmelo. Would you tune in?
