Khloé Kardashian is setting the record straight on her involvement in the new Netflix documentary, Untold: The Death & Life of Lamar Odom. During the April 15, 2026, episode of her podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, the reality star revealed that her participation was a “favor” that has since left her feeling “dumb” and “pissed.”
Despite being a central figure in the film, which chronicles Odom’s rise to NBA stardom and his near-fatal 2015 overdose, Khloé clarified that she did not profit from the project. “I’m not paid a cent,” she told listeners. “I have no involvement in this documentary besides sitting down and giving an interview.” Khloé explained that she initially resisted the project for months, citing the “traumatic” nature of reliving those years, but eventually agreed because Netflix and Lamar’s team insisted they couldn’t finish the story without her.
What sparked Khloé’s recent “scathing” comments was the documentary’s claim regarding the start of their 2009 marriage. In the film, Odom’s best friend, Anthony “Pumpkin” Booker, suggests Odom pursued Khloé to “better his future” and use her “mad connections.” Odom himself hints at similar motives on camera.
“You’re asking me to be in your documentary and behind the scenes, you and your friends are all saying you were with me just for fame? That’s some f**ed up sht,” Khloé said on her podcast.
Beyond the personal slights, Khloé took issue with the film’s creative direction. She noted that she was promised a “positive piece” that would highlight recovery and growth. Instead, she feels the documentary glosses over the last 11 years of Odom’s sobriety journey. “If there was nothing positive to show at the end, that’s on you,” she directed at the filmmakers.
The tension has escalated as Odom begins his press tour. Khloé claims he is now “insinuating that I’m a liar” in interviews, specifically regarding her role in his recovery. While Odom recently credited God for his survival on Today with Jenna & Sheinelle, Khloé maintains she was there to support him out of goodwill—not to be “dragged” once the public reaction turned sour.
