Kanye West is spending some quality time with his baby girl North West and the Kardashian Klan in Malibu. Find out what they were up to inside….

We know Kanye West wants to run for president in 2020, but we love seeing him most when he’s in daddy-mode.

Yesterday, Yeezy stepped out with his baby girl North West and the Kardashian Klan for some fall fun. The Wests and the Kardashians trekked to a vineyard and ranch in Malibu for some family fun.

Cutie Nori was styling in a pair of denim shorts and a white tank t-shirt.

The little daddy's girl had her pops wrapped around her little finger as they trekked through the ranch.

Auntie Kourtney Kardashian came along for the fun, and so did Nori's mom Kim Kardashian West, Nori's cousins Penelope and MasonDisick and grandma Kris Jenner with her boo Corey Gamble.  We would pay money to hear what Nori's opinion of Corey is, or at least see her face when he's around...

Chile...Instagram & Internet models are having the best year ever. They're getting reality shows (i.e. "The Westbrooks" show coming to BET soon), IG boutique businesses, plenty of ballers, and plenty of attention when they call out said ballers.  Deets inside on the hot water Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson just got himself into....

It's a cold world.  And Internet stars don't give a damn how much you have at stake...they're all for blasting you publicly when they deem necessary.

Case in point: 2015 NBA champ Klay Thompson's most recent girlfriend Hannah Stocking. 

Unlike other stories claiming girlfriends/fiancee's are blasting their ballers for cheating, this one actually is credible and true.

Here's what we know:  Some time yesterday, Hannah, who is known to show off any and all of her body parts on Instagram as a "model," took to her Twitter to blast boyfriend Klay Thompson.

Despite some unconfirmed internet chatter claiming the two were broken up by the time she went on her Twitter rant yesterday, the two were definitely dating recently as they hit the carpet together at the Kids Choice Sports' Awards this past July (pics above).

Hannah tweeted yesterday about catching her man in the act.  She said:

'When you catch ur man naked in bed with a groupie.... lol @KlayThompson,'

Of course...Twitter was set ablaze with everyone chiming in about the blasting.  Hannah deleted the tweet, then continued to post other things to follow up her accusations.  She ended up deleting all the tweets, but you know nothing is ever deleted from the innanets.  Check out the screenshots below:

Bloop.  Even after deleting those tweets, she went on a "Favoriting" spree that also supported her original accusations.  We've got a shot of those too:

Hmph.  Meanwhile, Klay has remained mum about it all. 

He did recently post about his mom and his dad (above on the left), calling them his idols.

Fun fact: Klay's dad is retired Bahamian NBA star Mychal Thompson.  His older brother Mychel (spelled with an E) also played in the NBA previously and his younger brother Trayce plays in the MLB for the Chicago White Sox.

T.I. found himself making headlines and catching negative backlash after making comments that he would not vote for a woman president in fear of “rash emotional decisions.” Hmpfh. Check out his apology and peep “Watermelondrea” read Raven-Symone for filth inside….

We can all agree T.I. is no stranger to controversy. So we were caught by surprise when we heard him say he wouldn’t vote for a woman to become POTUS out of fear that she would make “rash emotional decisions.”

In a recent interview with DJ Whoo Kid, the Grand Hustle general addressed Hilary Clinton running for president which resulted in some rather sexist commentary. Tip said the world isn’t ready for a female president and that we may as well elect the Lochness Monster before electing a woman for presidency. Say what?

His exact words were:

“Not to be sexist but, I can’t vote for the leader of the free world to be a woman,” he said. “Just because, every other position that exists, I think a woman could do well. But the president? It’s kinda like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally – they make very permanent, cemented decisions – and then later, it’s kind of like it didn’t happen, or they didn’t mean for it to happen. And I sure would hate to just set off a nuke. [Other leaders] will not be able to negotiate the right kinds of foreign policy; the world ain’t ready yet. I think you might be able to the Lochness Monster elected before you could [get a woman].”

Is this not the same man who made the emotional and rash decision to buy and carry an ARSENAL of weapons right after he got out of jail? Which got him sent right back to jail? Oh…ok.

Not only that, he semi-endorsed presidential hopeful Donald Trump for the spot. While he said Trump could possibly be beneficial for the economy, he won’t be voting for him. He said,

“He’s interesting and I feel his the best showman of them all. And I do feel that if he is sincerely concerned about the economy of America and the working public, he would be the best person to flip the money that we have […] But you know, his racist remarks and all of his off-color statements and all that s**t it makes it impossible to be completely supportive of him. But just knowing what he’s done for business for himself, if he intends to do that for America, it would be beneficial. But I can’t cast no vote for him.”

Sighs….

Anyhoo, Tip started catching some heat over the sexist remarks and decided to issue an apology via his Twitter this AM:

Oh Tip....

Peep his interview with DJ Whoo Kid below (at the 13:28 mark):

Gabrielle Union and Tamar Braxton have ben taking over our TV screens.  Check out Gabby gushing over Ciara& Russell's relationship, plus Tamar Braxton's major samba on DWTS...

Yes, she always looks perfect and yes, we're kinda jealous.  "Being Mary Jane" star Gabrielle Union made her way to "Live with Kelly & Michael" this morning where Ciara filled in for Kelly Ripa as guest co-host.

The two YBF chicks did a little girl talk about their relationships as Gabby told CiCi she thought she and Russell were "so cute" as a couple.  Apparently she ran into them backstage at an Awards show and said,"I'm here for all of this."  Aren't we all?

Michael Strahan called both ladies GOALS.  Agreed.

Check out Gabby talking about Dwyane planning their anniversary trip to Bora Bora, which was all a surprise to her.  And both Ciara and Gabby exchanging "Your relationship is so cute" words below:

Also last night, Gabby came through in all red to hit up "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon":

Gorge.  She dished on swimming with pigs on a 4-way vacay trip with Carmelo & LaLa Anthony, Chris and Jada Paul, and LeBron & Savannah James...and it was all Bron's idea.

Check out the video below:

Also last night, Tamar Braxton tapped into her inner Sasha Fierce and slayed the DWTS dance floor for her Samba routine to "End Of Time".  This was Swap week where all contestants got a new professional partner for the week.

Some may say it wasn't her cleanest routine she's done so far, but she did damn good considering she had 1 week to learn one of the toughest and longest dances so far...and with a brand new partner. We think her scores were lowballed (29 out of 40)...but she's still in there nonetheless.

Here's the video:

Congrats Tamar!

One very lucky couple will get to brag to all their friends about the time President Obama popped up at their wedding.  We'll explain how it went down inside....

Here's a fun story....

When it comes to fun wedding day stories, no one is going to be able to compete with the Tobes.  The San Diego couple recently wed at one of the most prestigious golf courses in the United States and got one of the most exciting wedding presents of all time.

Yep.....that's who you think it is.

On their glorious wedding day (this past Sunday), newlyweds Brian and Stephanie Tobe were at The Lodge at Torrey Pines getting ready for the festivities when they heard that President Obama was in the area playing golf.

Their wedding was set for 4:30pm, right above the 18th hole and as they were prepping....they noticed their chance.  Stephanie told NBC San Diego, "We're stacked up against the window, looking out as we see him coming down across the green." Their photographers, Erin and Jeff Youngren, had been trying to see if the couple could get closer and were going back and forth on their walkie talkies.  Then everything starting coming into place.

The POTUS started shaking hands with other golfers, so Erin dashed into the bridal suite and said, girl get ready..."this is our chance!"  So Stephanie grabbed her long lace train and PUMPED IT! 

She said,"I picked up my wedding dress and just started running down the hall."  Along the way, her hubby Brian joined in the golf course dash. "Our friends are yelling and screaming the moment we come out onto the grass."  As she ran, only one thing was on her mind, "I gotta get there...I just had to get there."  

And she got there.  They both did! 

Stephanie added, "Honestly, I'm normally a pretty shy person, but man, yesterday, for the wedding day and in that moment, I didn't care about anything.  When I was running up to him, I just started crying.  I was in a state of complete shock.  I never thought we'd have a chance in the world to meet him."

Although the wedding got delayed an hour and a half because of all the commotion, the couple did get married and President Obama finished his game. 

We did not receive official word from The White House on how well he played.

Whoopi Goldberg has some interesting views about opportunity in Hollywood.  Find out what she said below and get the deets on Bobby Brown's autobiography.

In a recent interview with BET.com, Whoopi Goldberg responded to a question about Viola Davis's Emmy speech where the Emmy-winner famously said, "The only thing that separates women of color from anybody else is opportunity."

Well....Whoopi, one of the most successful actresses of all-time, "sees" Hollywood a little differently.  She told BET.com,

"Well, I’m not sure what it means. Opportunity to do what? Do you know what I mean?... The truth of the matter is there’s been plenty of opportunity. I mean, Scandal. Let’s just start with that. Kerry Washington is there and she’s working her booty off, okay? But they didn’t vote for her. So, maybe the question is, 'What do you have to do to get voted on?' That's the thing."

Watch Whoopi's interview at the link here.

In other news...

Bobby Brown (shown in an old photo with Bobbi Kris), who we've watched deal with alcohol addiction, run-ins with police, child support issues, the death of his ex-wife and the burial of his daughter, is ready to open up and talk about it all.  In what publisher Dey Street Book is billing as a“raw and unvarnished” memoir, the ORIGINAL King of RnB is about to tell ALL! Why?  Cause it's his prerogative.  And that's actually the name of the book, “My Prerogative.”

“My Prerogative” is due in stores in 2016 June and will take readers into Bobby's “crazy, exciting, fascinating world.” In a statement about the forthcoming tome, he said,

“Right after I signed on to write my story, I went through one of the most agonizing traumas I had ever experienced with the death of my daughter.  But I was surprised by how therapeutic it was to work on this project, to look at the entire arc of my life and to realize that although there has been considerable pain, I have also been incredibly blessed.  I hope my fans and other readers of this book will be entertained by this trip into the crazy, exciting, fascinating world of Bobby Brown. And I hope they will feel that I have been as honest and open with them in these pages as I have tried to be my entire life.”

The publishers claim the book will also “tell the full story of his life and set the record straight, particularly about his relationship with Whitney Houston.”

We have to say....we expect this to be juicy!

Estranged couple Memphitz and Toya Wright are going to work through their martial woes on BRAVO's "Untying The Knot."  Watch the preview inside...

The last time we checked in on the marriage of Toya Wright and Memphitz it was during our exclusive interview with Toya a while back.  We could tell from the way she spoke about Memphitz that she was still very much in love and didn't want to end her marriage.  And we were (W)right.

We've just learned that Memphitz and Toya are still very much married and still working through their marital issues.  But now BRAVO is involved.  While we aren't sure that reality tv is the answer...a check is a check.

They've signed up for "Untying The Knot" so we will get to watch them work through their issues.  Now....if you know about them, it was actually reality tv that split them up.  Memphitz always felt like Toya's decision to turn down "LAHH ATL" helped destroy his relationships in the industry because he couldn't defend himself against K. Michelle. 

So....what first destroyed your marriage is now going to save it?  Chile....that's gonna be one 'ole Sunday morning testimony if it actually works out.  Time will tell....

Bravo's "Untying The Knot" November 11th @ 8/9c. Will you be tuned in?

Things have gone from bad to worse for former NBA baller Lamar Odom. According to new reports, he was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel today. And now, he’s fighting to stay alive. Deets inside….

[UPDATE: 11:45p ET] The airlift REPORTEDLY WAS called off due to Lamar's 6'10 frame which would not fit in the chopper.  He was instead driven to a Las Vegas hospital by ambulance.  TMZ reports his estranged/ex wife Khloe Kardashian, her mother and sister Kim are rushing to be by his side.

....

Last we heard, Lamar Odom was pleading his innocence in that recent “ambush” he supposedly did on his wife Khloe Kardashian. Now, we’re hearing the former NBA player is fighting for his life in a hospital after a wild couple of days at a brothel in Nevada.

According to reports, the 35-year-old went to enjoy himself at the Love Ranch in Pahrump, Nevada on Saturday. It's being said he was there for a few days. While there, he was supposedly taking an herbal substitute to Viagra. Today, he was found unresponsive and was rushed to the hospital.

Here’s how TMZ breaks down what went down when he was found today:

[Love Ranch owner Dennis Hof]... who tells us Tuesday afternoon, a woman went into Odom's room in the VIP suites and found him unconscious. We're told the woman began screaming for the manager -- who called 911.

The manager rolled Lamar over on his side and saw "mucus-type liquid coming out of his nose ad mouth." An ambulance took Lamar to Pahrump hospital, where doctors intubated him ... an indication he could not breathe on his own.

We're told Lamar is being airlifted from the hospital to Las Vegas for more treatment. Our sources tell us, "It's not good."

Wow. This is incredibly sad. Lamar has suffered some tumultuous events involving his love life and personal/family life, including the recent passing of a close childhood friend.

The story is still developing. We’ll keep you posted on any updates. Our prayers are with him at this time.

The gals are pounding the pavement on both coasts.  See what Keshia Knight Pulliam, Blac Chyna and Gabby Union are up to inside...

It's now less than 1 week until "Being Mary Jane" premieres its new season.  So star Gabrielle Union is making her promo rounds looking fabulous as always.

The 42-year old is having a busy October -- she just came off her surprise anniversary vacay to Bora Bora with NBA husband Dwyane Wade, she's got season 3 of her hit BET show on deck, plus she turns 43 just a couple of days before Halloween.

While rocking a chic and sexy look from Sophia Kah, Gabby stepped out in NYC on Tuesday looking bright eyed and fab:

She knows what works and sticks to it.

Also looking stylish and cute making tv show rounds on Tuesday was Keisha Knight Pulliam:

The Will To Love star rocked two classy looks that we're loving to "The Today Show" and around the city at Essence Live and Huff Post Live as she spread the news about her new TVOne movie. 

The child star is grown and sexy....and reminding folks on her promo tour that she's still the youngest person to ever be nominated for an EMMY. 

Over in L.A.:

You can hide your face all day Blac Chyna, but we know it's you  You can't hide that oversized leg tattoo, bleached blonde wiggery and dimples.

Chyna's been a busy gal traveling from city to city with rapper Future.  Mmmhmm...we've seen the pics.  When she skipped out on her bestie Amber Rose's Slut Walk recently and turned up in D.C. with the "Commas" rapper...folks thought there was trouble in bestie paradise.  Pair that with news that her and Amber's upcoming reality show is no longer in play, and now tongues have definintely been wagging.

But leave it to Amber to shut down the rumor mill.  She posted on Tuesday that she was actually on her way to "her sis" Chyna's house to let baby Sebastian play with his "bro" King.  So all is well in their world.  Supposedly.

Taraji P. Henson posed for her most vulnerable photoshoot ever in the latest issue of CR Fashion Book.  And Jussie Smollett came along for the ride.  Also, check out Taraji on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!".....

Get ready to see Taraji P. Henson in a "state" of undress that she's never revealed before.  No....she didn't show us her boobs.  No....she didn't show us the crack of her butt.  But......she did take off her weave to show us what was underneath.  Here's how that ish went down.... 

After a decade in the game, Taraji P. Henson is finally getting her just due from headline clips and magazine covers to international fashion shoots.  But this is a new even for Taraji....

Taraji told CR Fashion Book"I wear wigs a lot, especially for fashion shoots."  But photographer Bruce Weber managed to get Taraji to let her guard down.

"He's photographing me in my most vulnerable state; women will never let you see them like this."  Taraji went ahead and allowed Bruce to shoot her in her cornrows....because beneath the wigs and weaves, this is who she is. 

The photoshoot also included a surprise appearance from "Empire" fan favorite Jussie Smollett.  The other models are Michael Beasley, Jon Batiste and Henry Watkins.

In revealing what's under her wig cap, Taraji says Bruce told her, "It's not about your hair, it's about your face. So I decided to trust the artists' vision. As an actress that's what we do. We are vulnerable everytime we put our art out there. Underneath that hair is my soul, and it's me and it's mine."

Check out the vulnerable moments here:

SIDEBAR:  Watch Jussie SING HIS HEART OUT on the video above.

Last night on "Jimmy Kimmel Live"

Taraji stopped by JKL for a fun interview.  First, we learned that the Obamas LOVE "Empire."  Once....Lee Daniels was in a receiving line for President Obama and he specifically asked about Taraji.  And he told Lee that Michelle LOVES "Empire."

And here's another tidbit.....stop sending Taraji cookies!  Yes....she understands the word play but she can't eat all of the cookies that fans send her. Why not?  Because she wants to be able to fit into Cookie's animal print clothes.

Parents-to-be John Legend and Chrissy Teigen enjoyed a night out on the town in L.A. last night, which was their first public appearance since announcing they’re pregnant. Pics inside…

R&B crooner John Legend and his model wife Chrissy Teigen are embarking on an incredible journey. They recently announced they are PREGNANT with their first child. And if you’ve been keeping up with the couple, you’ll know that this has been a long time coming. But, it has finally happened and we’re uber excited for them.

Before hitting the party scene, the happy couple had to take care of Chrissy’s pregnancy cravings. John and Chrissy dined at Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood. We know the “FABLife” co-host has been craving pizza, but unfortunately pizza isn’t on the menu at Chateau Marmont. No worries though. She satisfied that craving earlier in the day:

I have come to realize that at some point in the day, I will order and consume a pizza so it might as well be in the morning

After dinner, the twosome trekked it to the La Mer Skincare 50th Celebration of an Icon held at Siren Studios for some fun.

And that's not all. The “All Of Me” singer was tapped to host the L.A. screening of the Netflix original film Beast Of No Nation. Pregnancy surely isn't slowing them down...just yet.

Congratulations are in order for Atlanta rapper 2 Chainz. He became a dad again after welcoming his third child into the world today.

His new bundle of joy is extra special to him since he’s his FIRST son whom he has named Halo. Baby Halo will be surrounded by lots of love, especially from his big sisters Heaven and Harmony. Aww…

He captioned the proud moment when he held his son for the frist time saying, "He’s here and I’m thankful 10/14/15.”

Once he made it to the hospital, he snapped a selfie with the caption:

"This that look when the hospital closed and you gotta walk through emergency when it's bunkin....ps. my Lil man on the way ... God is good" Adorbs. 

Congrats!

How gorge is Dame Dash and Rachel Roy’s daughter Ava Dash? The 15-year-old philanthropist/model, who has been featured in Teen VOGUEand VOGUE Mexico, is blossoming into a beautiful young lady. And her heart is made of gold.

Her mom had a moment where she could hardly believe her baby girl is transitioning into a woman. She captioned,"That moment when you see a pic of you & your kid and realize she is no longer your baby.. @ava_dash. Any other parents relate? In my mind she will always be my AvaBaby. My goal: to live in the present and feel every single moment w my children bc it goes by in a flash"

Not only is she beautiful, but she loves helping others. After volunteering at an orphanage in Ghana recently, she told Teen VOGUE,

"It was eye-opening. The kids weren't that different from me; they just needed support."

These days, she cooks and serves food to homeless teenagers through Covenant House and mentors inner-city high school girls through the program Step Up. Loves it!

Mariah Carey's boyfriend is cutting her a huge check to perform at the opening of his new casino.  Get the deets inside and see what Trey Songz said about his IRS woes.

Mother Mimi knows best.....

It must be nice to have a boyfriend who can give you some lovin' and cut you a check.  We've just learned that Mariah is getting one of the largest "one-night-only" checks of her career, courtesy of her boyfriend James Packer. 

Mariah is all set to perform at the grand opening of James' new casino in Macau, which promises to be Asia's answer to Las Vegas.  The name of the new gambling paradise is Studio City and reports state that Mariah is getting paid in the high 6 digits.

The gig is set for Oct. 27th and the casino is bringing in a few other high profile celebs like Brett Ratner, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio.

Now.....if you love Mimi but can't make it to Las Vegas in 2016 OR Macau by next week, don't forget she's doing a set of Xmas shows at the Beacon Theatre in New York again this year.

In other news...

Trey Songz has been added to the IRS' list of celebs who owe them major dollars. His financial business leaked this morning when reports hit the net about him failing to pay taxes on his 2013 income.  He was apparently hit with a tax lien in Miami last month and he owes $748,870.08 (allegedly).  

Now......what did Trey have to say about this?  We're gonna try to read between the lines.  On Instagram he posted the caption "I blew a bag today" with this picture.... 

It seems to us.....he's confirming to his mom April that he does owe close to $800K and he paid it off.  Let's not forget, he and Chris Brown will be taking up a residency in Las Vegas at Drai's Beachclub & Nightclub at The Cromwell boutique hotel and Casino.  So......we're sure he'll have this taken care of pretty soon if it hasn't been already.

Directress Ava DuVernay is gracing the cover of ELLE magazine’s Women In Hollywood issue.  And she’s absolutely stunning. More inside…

She’s half woman, half amazing. And she’s finally getting the props she so rightfully deserves in Hollywood.

Few knew who YBF chick Ava DuVernay was a few years ago. But once her Oscar nominated civil rights film SELMA was released, everyone was itching to know the woman behind the inspirational film.

The Compton native, who is the first black female director to be nominated for a Golden Globe Award, is gracing 1 of the 8 covers for ELLE magazine’s annual Women In Hollywood issue.  Of course, he’s looking effortlessly fab in a silk white Calvin Klein dress and Balmain jewels.

Inside the issue, the famous directress chops it up about her documentary chronicling tennis champion Venus Williams fighting for equal pay and her critically acclaimed film SELMA.

Below are the highlights:

On her film, Venus vs. Venus: "It was fascinating to really explore Venus Williams as the first of her kind, the first to break down the wall—so young, so graceful, so gracious, so at the top of her game."

On the process of creating the Oscar winning Selma: "It was important to me when I took over the film and rewrote the script that there were those silences and spaces where these icons are being people."

Selma star and rapper Common on working with DuVernay: "[She] created an environment where we felt like we were doing something with a higher purpose."

Fab!  You can catch up on all things Ava once her issue hits newsstands nationwide October 20th.

If you’re still a fan of “America’s Next Top Model,” unfortunately this season will likely be the last. Get the deets and check out pics of 50 Cent swimming in money after filing bankruptcy inside….

If you still had dreams on making it big on model competition show “American’s Next Model,” it may be too late. According to “ANTM” honcho Tyra Banks, Cycle 22 (which is currently airing) may likely be the last and final season.

The "FABLife" co-host took to her Twitter account to announce the news tweeting:

TYRA MAIL! Thinking #ANTM22 should be our last cycle. I truly believe it's time. May your pics be forever fierce. Keep on Smizing! Tyra

After 12 years of making Top Models, including Eva Marcille and runner-up Yaya DaCosta, and sending home girls who weren’t quite ready for the fashion industry, Tyra will give her last “smizing” lesson until the finale show, set to air November 13th.

CW President Mark Pedowitz released a statement following Tyra’s announcement saying,

“America's Next Top Model was a successful franchise for two networks, first at UPN and then The CW, and it became not just a ratings hit, but a global pop culture phenomenon. I want to thank Tyra and Ken for all their years of success in establishing a show that was not just popular in the U.S., but all across the world."

True indeed. Congrats to Tyra on the success of the long-running show.

SIGHS....

50 Cent is on his petty ish…making sure everyone knows that although he filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, he is NOT broke. Yes, he cut the price of his Connecticut mansion from $18.5 milli to $8.5 milli last week…but he’s still swimming in money…so he says.

Fif hopped on Instagram to show off his “lunch money” which consisted of bankrolls of $100 bills. He captioned one pic,“Man this lunch money, I gotta go to work I'm still up, no Sleep at all. NEW MUSIC this week,Off The KANAN tape. #EFFENVODKA #FRIGO #SMSAUDIO”

The Power producer is set to release a new mixtape named after his Power character “Kanan.” We’re sure he’ll be rapping about his recent bankruptcy woes and reminding us all he’s still getting money. Hmph.

There have been plenty updates about the dire situation surrounding Lamar Odom.  We've got all the updates inside, including Jesse Jackson making a trip to the athlete's bedside...

Late last night, news broke about former L.A. Laker Lamar Odom being found unresponsive in a Nevada brothel called the "Cathouse."  Police were called when the owner of the establishment walked in to the room Lamar lay in and found fluids running from his nose and mouth.  Lamar was driven by ambulance to Las Vegas' Sunrise Hospital after plans to airlift him there via helicopter were cancelled because of his size.

Immediate reports stated he was hooked up to a ventilator and the situation simply "did not look good."

Today, with many developments happening, his situation is still dire and his condition is still listed as critical.

Reports state the former NBA star has suffered severe organ failure, affecting four different organs, and he is currently on a ventilator.

While the brothel owner originally stated Lamar had taken "herbal style Viagra," new reports suggest otherwise.  According to E! Online, every drug imaginable was in his system, including crack cocaine:

"Likely there's brain damage, but they're not sure how much," the source added. "Virtually every drug imaginable was found in his system."

Crack cocaine, one of the drugs found, caused him to choke, according to an insider.  "He was doing crack cocaine all weekend and he choked on his mucous," the insider explained. "They're now having to fix all the damage it has done."

A MRI was conducted on Lamar today which found he has suffered several mini strokes since being admitted.  Other sites report today that due to a severe lack of oxygen to the brain for an extended amount of time, he is still "touch and go".  His condition could really lean either way for the rest of the night.

With Lamar not having much close family, it's unclear as to who he has listed as next of kin.  E! does state, surprisingly, that even though both he and his ex Khloe Kardashian signed their divorce papers this past July, the court system never got around to finalizing the paperwork.  They were "backed up."

So, technically, Khloe is still legally his wife.  She has been by his bedside since the story broke yesterday.

Also by Lamar's bedside is civil rights leader Jesse Jackson:

Definitely an interesting turn of events.  Jesse hopped out his car to an onslaught of reporters who he spoke briefly to.

After all of the scattered reports last night, Lamar's rep issued a statement today to Us Weekly:

“Family and friends are extremely concerned for Lamar,” Odom's longtime publicist and friend, Eve Sarkisyan, tellsUs in a statement. “Please don't listen to the false information being circulated unofficially. Please respect the family's privacy during this difficult time.”

We'll keep you updated on all developments...
