Lamar Odom Was Boozing Before Bizarre Nightclub Collapse, Source Claims

Lamar Odom, 38, collapsed at a Los Angeles nightclub this Sunday, RadarOnline.com has learned, and sources are blaming the bizarre incident on a lack of hydration!

"He was drinking but it wasn't a big deal," said an insider. "He drinks now."

As RadarOnline.com readers know, Odom was in and out of rehab after he came clean about his addiction problems following a horrific overdose in 2015.

Since then, he has reportedly changed is life for the better – yet recently he's been spotted out and about in ritzy Hollywood parties.

"Everyone was really glad that he kicked his cocaine and crack habits," the source told RadarOnline.com. "Would we like him to not drink and not smoke weed? Yes. But he's not doing crack or coke so we'll take the other stuff."

Speaking of the moment Odom fell to the ground inside his VIP club booth, the insider explained: "He was dehydrated," after an intense workout earlier that day.

According to another source, the club was very warm and Odom's health scare may have in fact been due to overheating and dehydration.
