Khloe Kardashian News: Khloe Admits, "I Like Athletes"
Fans have been wondering for so long if Khloe Kardashian has a certain type of a man that she likes to date. Her estranged husband, Lamar Odom, and her current boyfriend, James Harden, are both basketball players, and she is not shy in telling, "I like athletes."
During her interview with Howard Stern last Wednesday, Jan. 13, the 31-year-old reality star explained why she is attracted to ballers. "I guess. I mean, especially now that I'm athletic, I like athletes. I like to be active," she said. Khloe has been spending a lot of time in the gym now, and it seems perfectly reasonable that she also likes to date someone who can "keep up" with her.
According to Us Magazine, Khloe admitted to being cheated on by Lamar throughout their marriage, which made her become wary of dating another basketball player after their marriage did not work out. Even the king-of-all media suggested for her not to date another baller in the future because of their known "reputation."

However, it seems like Khloe can't help falling for another NBA player after being introduced to the Houston Rockets player during her brother-in-law's, Kanye West, birthday party at the Staples Center. Khloe said that Kim invited some of Kanye's athlete friends and James was among them. A few months after, Khloe threw a big birthday party for the 26-year-old basketball player on a yacht in Marina Del Rey, California, and since then, the two have been inseparable, with the exception of Lamar's hospitalization last October.
Meanwhile, the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star survived a terrifying experience earlier this week, after her plane needed to have an emergency landing due to mechanical issues, according to ABC News. Khloe was among those who were on board the American Airlines flight 256, but safely landed in Las Vegas. Khloe later tweeted, "supposed 2b in NYC but somehow I'm in Vegas NYC I'm trying to get there. Emergency landing but Joyce and I are SAFE."
