From having plays written about her to getting revenge on body-shamers, here are things you
didn’t know about Khloe Kardashian:
18.
Early Life
Khloe Alexandra Kardashian was born in Los Angeles, California on June 27, 1984.
Her mother is Kris Mary Jenner, and her father’s name was Robert George Kardashian.
Khloe’s older sisters are Kim and Kourtney, and her younger brother is Rob.
Her mom and dad divorced in 1991, and Kris married Bruce, now Caitlyn, Jenner.
When they tied the knot, Khloe gained a step-sister named Casey, two step-brothers named Brody
and Brandon, and her two younger half-sisters, Kylie and Kendall.
The family began garnering recognition through Robert’s work as O.J.
Simpson’s defense lawyer throughout his infamous trial.
Khloe also gained attention from her sister’s racy tape.
17.
Car Accident
Something you probably didn’t know about this Kardashian sister is that she suffered
a severe injury in 2001.
She was in a car accident that caused her to be thrown through the windshield.
Khloe ended up with a severe concussion and experienced memory loss due to the brain damage.
She still deals with some of these adverse effects today.
During an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloe even went to a couple of doctors to
try and find out what the problem is.
She stated in 2013, “...now I can’t remember anything… and I think it’s getting worse,”
regarding the accident; she added, “It’s really irritating and frustrating and kind
of sad that I can’t remember so many things from my childhood.”
Khloe even considered that she could have Alzheimer’s.
16.
Lamar Odom
Many people know that Khloe was with Lamar Odom for quite some time.
But, we’re gonna take a look back at their relationship.
They got married very quickly in 2009… one month after they first met.
In 2010, the duo was given their own reality show, Khloe & Lamar, which only ran for two
seasons.
Three years later, Lamar got arrested for driving under the influence and was sentenced
to three years of probation; he also had to attend an alcohol treatment program.
Khloe filed for divorce that December.
In 2014, she accused Lamar of being unfaithful.
In 2015, two of Lamar’s friends passed away, and he was discovered unconscious at the infamous
risque business in Crystal, Nevada.
So, Khloe withdrew the divorce petition to make medical decisions on his behalf while
she stayed with him in the hospital during his four-day coma.
However, when he was all well again, she reinstated the papers, and their separation became final
in December 2016.
15.
Arrest
Another fact about Khloe that you probably didn’t know is that she was arrested in
March 2007 for driving under the influence and spent the night in jail.
In July 2008, she turned herself in for violating her probation.
Khloe was then sentenced to thirty days behind bars and had to go through a treatment program.
However, since the jail was overcrowded, she was released just a few hours in.
But, she told Tyra Banks on her show in 2008, “...what I could have done is just unthinkable.
I will never, ever do that again,” regarding her drunk driving.
The Kardashian also stated, “I have to go to the hospital and see injured people who
were either drunk driving themselves or were hurt by someone.”
So, it seems Khloe learned her lesson after the incident.
Besides, we’re sure she can afford a personal driver.
14.
Fired
Another Khloe fact that you might not have known is that she was on the second season
of The Celebrity Apprentice with Donald Trump.
She finished in tenth place after being fired by the now President of the United States.
A couple of sources told Huffington Post that he had referred to her as a “piglet” during
the show, which some believe could’ve been part of the reason he let her go.
However, he stated, “I hate people who drive under the influence.
I know three families who lost children to drunken driving.”
While firing her, Trump also noted that she had missed competitions on the show due to
her mandatory probation meetings for her DUI sentence.
In 2016, Khloe had some choice of words about Donald Trump and the show.
She said, “I didn’t care to do Celebrity Apprentice.
My mom made me do it.
I hated every minute of it.
I was put in situations I would never be in in real life… stressing myself out, and
then dealing with [Trump] and about to be fired.
I’m like…’I don’t want to do this.’’
13.
Lost Her Hair
Although you’ve never seen this star without her shiny, long locks, there was a time when
she didn’t have as much hair to speak of.
In July 2003, her dad was diagnosed with esophageal cancer.
Just a few months later, he passed away.
Khloe became so stressed and heartbroken that her hair began coming out.
She told Grazia, “When my dad passed away I lost almost all my hair and I had to wear
wigs and I had bald spots from internalizing stress…
When my hair grew back it was much thinner and it wasn’t the same thing so I was always
really frustrated.”
12.
Christian Bale
Who isn’t a fan of this talented actor?
Khloe Kardashian certainly is!
She was once discussing her love for the 1992 film Newsies, which stars Christian Bale,
and she said, “Rob and I used to be obsessed with this movie.
I used to have the biggest crush on him!”
11.
The X Factor
Did you know that Khloe was once a host on The X Factor?
That’s right; this Kardashian sister hosted the talent show during its second season.
In October 2012, she and Mario Lopez were confirmed to be co-hosts, and the first episode
aired at the end of that month.
However, Khloe’s time on the show wasn’t long-lived.
Mario Lopez went on the host the third season by himself.
She later spoke out about being cut, stating that she lost her confidence.
10.
J Biebs
If the Kardashians are known for anything, it’s their high-class style, and it was
no exception when Khloe bought her mansion in Calabasas.
She purchased the home from Justin Bieber, who decided to sell after dealing with various
incidents involving his neighbors.
He had gotten it for about six million dollars, and Khloe bought it from him for over seven
million dollars.
9.
Homeschooled
Another thing you probably didn’t know about Khloe Kardashian is that she dropped out of
her high school, the Roman Catholic, all-girls Marymount, after her sisters’ graduations.
However, she continued her education at home.
She later stated, “...there was no reason for me to stay…[I] felt like I didn’t
have any friends.”
She got her GED a year early, at the age of seventeen, and noted that she received the
degree “with honors.”
8.
Radio Show
When Khloe was married to Lamar, she began spending a lot more time in Dallas.
One of the things she did during that period was host a radio show called The Mix Up with
Khloe Kardashian Odom.
She spoke about the show in 2012, stating, “I could not be more thrilled about it…
Doing radio in Miami a few years ago was some of the most fun I’ve ever had and I can’t
wait to get back into it here in Dallas!”
The segment was an hour long with no commercials, during which time she spoke with friends and
took requests.
The first one aired in January of that year and lasted throughout the Mavericks’ season.
7.
Shows
In addition to Khloe & Lamar and Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloe has been in various
other shows.
She made a few appearances on Kourtney and Kim Take New York and Kourtney & Kim Take
Miami among others.
From 2014 to 2015, she also got a spinoff of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, titled
Kourtney & Khloe Take the Hamptons.
Since 2016, Khloe has been hosting her own talk show, Kocktails with Khloe, during which
she invites other celebs to discuss various topics, cook food, and have some drinks.
6.
Easter Bunny
Something else you probably don’t know about this famous Kardashian is that she has a play
named after her that was written by Mark David King.
The work is titled Khloe Kardashian Meets The Easter Bunny: An American Play.
Sounds...interesting, right?
Well, the plot is even more intriguing than the title.
It is about the character Jelly Roll, a poet, who has visions of Peter Cottontail.
Jelly Roll ends up meeting a young girl who thinks that she’s Khloe Kardashian’s incarnation.
Let’s just say the story is one for the ages… or that, at least, it’s very original.
Luckily for you, the book is for sale, and you might even be able to see it on-stage
some day.
5.
Legal Problems
Like many celebrities out there, Khloe Kardashian has faced some legal issues throughout the
years.
We already discussed her arrest for DUI in 2007 and sentence in 2008.
But, a few other things have happened throughout this star’s life.
In December 2011, a woman sued Khloe after claiming that eleven people, including her,
had offended her outside of a nightclub two years before.
Khloe denied the allegations.
In March 2012, she, Kourtney, and Kim faced another case, this time against QuickTrim,
a diet supplement that they endorse.
They were accused of false advertising.
4.
PETA
Although her sisters have often been scrutinized for wearing real fur clothing, Khloe hasn’t
received as much backlash for her outfit choices.
In fact, in 2008, this Kardashian even sponsored a PETA campaign by posing nude in an ad.
The poster featured Khloe in her birthday suit with the quote, “Fur?
I’d rather go naked.”
Even after posing for the animal rights organization, her sisters continued wearing garments made
out of the real stuff.
Khloe notedly stated at the launch of her ad, “Kim wore fur last night.
I told her you cannot wear fur.
It’s embarrassing.”
3.
Kid
Khloe and her ex-husband struggled with fertility issues for a long time; so, it was a spectacular
surprise when she found out she was pregnant with her and current-partner Tristan Thompson’s
daughter.
She wrote in her announcement via Instagram, “My greatest dream realized!
I had been waiting and wondering but God had a plan all along...I still at times can’t
believe our love created life!
Tristan, thank you for loving me the way that you do!...
I am so thankful, excited, nervous, eager, overjoyed and scared all in one!
But it’s the best bundle of feelings I’ve ever felt in my life!”
After having True, Khloe has been posting cute photographs of her family’s newest
addition and is sad that she’s growing up so quickly!
2.
Revenge Body
Khloe Kardashian is no stranger to criticism due to her life in the spotlight.
She struggled for years with her weight, and she faced a lot of adversity because she is
the tallest and weighed more than her sisters.
Since she dealt with these problems in the past, Khloe decided that she was going to
work hard to get her body in the shape she wanted.
Then, after meeting her goals, she decided to spread the positivity to her fans who might
be dealing with the same lack of confidence.
Revenge Body with Khloe Kardashian premiered on E! in January 2017.
The show’s objective is that Khloe helps people make themselves over regarding their
physical appearance and mental health.
She spoke about the series on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, stating, “I work on people from the
inside out and try to just put their lives back on track.
Some of the episodes are deep, some of these people...can’t get out of this rut that
they’re in…
I really just give them the tools to find the way but within their own environment.
It’s very realistic for them.”
Khloe also noted that the people from the show have become real success stories.
1.
Tristan Thompson
We already mentioned that Khloe and Tristan Thompson had a baby girl.
But, let’s take a look back at their relationship over the past couple of years.
These lovebirds began seeing each other in September 2016 and were spotted together on
several occasions, including on Labor Day weekend and in Miami attending Kim’s hubby’s
“Saint Pablo” tour.
In November 2016, Khloe revealed to Jimmy Kimmel that she traveled to Cleveland on a
regular basis to visit him.
A few months later, Khloe said that Thompson might be “the one” in an interview with
Extra.
In April 2017, Khloe told ES Magazine that she would marry Tristan if he asked her and
added, “I would love to have a family...We’ve talked about it all....
I know for a fact that he would be an impeccable father.”
In September of that year, several places reported that Khloe was expecting, and in
December, she announced the pregnancy on her Instagram.
But, when Khloe was really far along, news surfaced about her baby’s father was being
unfaithful.
In April 2018, she gave birth to their daughter, True.
Khloe chose to work things out with Tristan, even asking him to refrain from social media
use.
However, recent reports suggest that “She very much seems over Tristan.”
A source also told People, “Khloe isn’t saying that she and Tristan split.
It seems she hasn’t decided yet what she wants to do about their relationship.”
Only time will tell what the future holds for these new parents.
