Why Did Lamar Odom Do It?

Well, first off, LamarShian just doesn't sound right. It's just so ... against nature, but then again, the hybrid name couples always do sound funny (Remember the first time you heard Brangelina or Bennifer, or, for goodness sakes, Chrihanna?)
Still, Los Angeles Lakers star Lamar Odom's whirlwind marriage to half-famous Khloe Kardashian just seems, well you know.
"I aint saying she's a gold digger ..."
Of course, Odom will certainly be making some nice coin after signing a four-year $33 million deal this summer. That comes out to about $8 million a year. Of course, we're sure Kardashian didn't marry for the moolah, and if she did, it's her business.
Love is a many-splendored, wonderful thing, but one has to wonder why Odom and KK married so dang fast (a less-than-a-month courtship?)
Did Odom get tired of the Los Angeles groupies that the team surely had?
Did Kobe Bryant turn him out (just saying, Kobe used to be freaky back in the day).
What would make a young multimillionaire playboy up and marry someone he barely knew?
Did he talk to Reggie Bush?
Whatever happened, it's a wrap now. Let man not tear asunder what God hath done did ... but wow, Odom. For real?
"I aint saying she's a gold digger ..."

Kim Kardashian: I've Already Bought the Ring

Somehow celebrity Kim Kardashian says she's already bought the engagement ring for when football star Reggie Bush pops the question.
"He definitely knows all of us went ring shopping," she said recently on Sirius Radio.
Kim has no qualms about taking the initiative and going out and buying an item that secures her love forever.
"I definitely scared him and told him it was probably way more expensive than it is, just so that when he goes he feels like he's getting a good deal," she said. "He knows what it looks like. I think I-ve e-mailed him enough pictures."
Is this kosher, ladies?
Should you buy a ring for your gent without so much as a conversation? And even if there was conversation, would you be secure a enough to drop several thousand?
