Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom

American basketball star Lamar Odom has hopes to see ex-wife Khloe Kardashian inside the Celebrity Big Brother house. Odom is one of the 11 participants who will enter the house next month and the winner gets prize money of USD2,50,000 (approx Rs 1.87 crore).

Although there is nobody in particular the former NBA player wants to avoid inside the house, he would love to have reality TV star Khloe on the show. "Well, I'm hoping I'll bump into Khloe Kardashian. I don't really dislike or hate anybody, just don't want anybody that doesn't have a good spirit, anybody that's not coming into the house with a good spirit," Odom told Entertainment Tonight.

The other participants of the show are singer Chris Kirkpatrick, former Miss USA Shanna Moakler, reality TV stars Carson Kressley, Teddi Mellencamp, and Cynthia Bailey, actor Todd Bridges, comedian Chris Kattan, singer, songwriter and choreographer Todrick Hall, Olympian figure skater Mirai Nagasu and former UFC champion Miesha Tate.
