Former Los Angeles Lakers player turned reality TV star Lamar Odom revealed which one of his exes he’d try to date again if given the chance — and it may not be who you think.
According to The New York Post, Odom, who once dated actress Taraji P. Henson, but ditched her to start a romance with Khloe Kardashian. When asked who he would get back together with, Odom said the Empire
actress with hopes that he could shoot his shot.He explained, “Because I love Taraji. It’s a love thing. It’s about who you love.”
He continues, “Taraji is a cool girl. Matter fact she’s here [in L.A.]. I got to see her at the BET Awards in June. So maybe I’ll get to shoot my shot at her again.”

become a New York Times best-seller, he said that he and Henson “started secretly dating and quickly fell in love.” Although the romance didn’t last long, he called it “one of the happiest times of my life.”He made an interesting statement to Page Six.
