He Regrets Cheating on Khloé Kardashian
Even though Khloé and Lamar had their issues, the dad of two is still upset he was unfaithful to his wife. “I wish I could have been more of a man. It still bothers me to this day. But regret is something we have to learn to live with,” he wrote.

He Hid His Addiction Issues From Khloé
So, why did Lamar stray from his wife? “At the start of our marriage, I was unfaithful to her,” read an excerpt from his memoir. Then, Lamar started to engage in affairs and hid his cocaine addiction from the KUWTK starlet. “I could not handle the lethal cocktail of the spotlight, addiction, a diminishing career and infidelity,” he wrote. “Oh, did I mention the paranoia, anxiety, depression … I couldn’t keep my d—k in my pants or the coke out of my nose. Drug addicts are incredibly skilled at hiding their habit. I’d get defensive, and Khloé would just drop it.”

He Used a Prosthetic Penis to ‘Pass a Drug Test’ for the 2004 Olympics
The athlete was offered a spot on the U.S. Men’s Olympic basketball team in 2004, but he needed to pass a drug test. So, Lamar came up with a creative solution — he decided to use a prosthetic penis so his results would come back clean.
“We started googling ‘fake penises’ and studied different ways to beat a drug test,” he said. “After an exhaustive search, we ordered a giant, rubber, black c—k to arrive the next day.”
In the book, the former reality star admitted he “was paranoid it wouldn’t work.” However, he passed the procedure with flying colors. “He stuck a thermometer in the cup to gauge the temperature … satisfied that the pee was mine, said ‘Welcome to Team U.S.A.,’” he wrote.

He Had Sex With Over 2,000 Women
The Khloé & Lamar alum also revealed that he has slept with plenty of women. “I have been obsessed with sex for as long as I can remember. I am a sex addict — I’ve had sex with more than 2,000 women,” he wrote. “There were too many strippers to count. It wasn’t a big deal, but often I would pay them. I never thought less of them.”

He’s Still Recovering
Lamar admitted he is now drug-free, but he is still working on himself. “I’m still an addict,” he wrote. “I still struggle … [But] I will not go into the darkness. Ever again.”
