Let's reason: So Lamar is going through a major career and identity crisis which has him depressed and leaves him with just enough emotional and physical energy to sleep, eat and go back to work until he gets over this tough transition, and what does his loving supportive wife do? Prepare a private picnic for him where he can let his guard down and get stress relieving support from his wife? No, folks. She invites an E! camera team of no fewer than ten people to take over the apartment and force him to shoot a picnic scene for their TV show. There is a huge difference between a picnic and a picnic scene. So when we judge Lamar's frustration with the show and Khloe's so called good wifey-ness, we must remember this.
Then when he tells her that he is too tired to perform the scene; that he only has energy for one job at the moment, what does the loving supportive wife do? Does she understand and call her mom and Ryan Seacrest to rework the episodes because this is a very real situation and Lamar can't do the show scenes right now? No, folks. She cries, to garner sympathy for herself, so the partner who needs support has to be the one soothing her.
I wish people would see this for what it is.
Remember that that little picnic in the house would have been done with cameras present. Let's be completely real. If she really was being a totally supportive wife and knew Lamar, she would have recognised what we all do, that he hates going through all this on camera and is only doing it to fulfil his contractual obligations and so she wouldn't have been trying to get him to have a picnic on camera after another tough day at his new job. Remember the cameras are there for all this. It's not really a romantic picnic, it's just more work for Lamar. We the viewers may not always be conscious of the cameras, butLamar is. So when he rejected the candle light picnic, what he was really rejecting was yet another scene for the reality show in which he would have been required to perform. What we don't see or think about is Lamar entering his home after another tough day at his real job and when he turns the doorknob, he can't unwind with his wife, he has to face a hotel room full of cameras, lights and a production team of people. Think about it.
And Khloe knows he doesnt want to go through all this on camera so I judge her the same way I judge Kim and the rest. She put her show above Lamar's mental health at that time and Lamar must have noticed. I would have rated her more as a wife if I had seen few scenes with Lamar and a boring TV show because that would have signalled to me that she was acting in his interest and not the Kardashian/E! team. But instead she has done what Kim and Kris do, choose her production over her marriage. She just isn't being a ***** on camera like Kim. But I look beyond what I'm shown at the bigger picture, which includes the cameras.
So when I hear that Lamar is frustrated with the show, that's what I think about.
Khloe has used this marriage to win the public relations war she has going on in her head against Kim. No one can tell me otherwise. I see right through this girl. And the public has helped her in this by judging her behaviour only in comparison to Kim. That's why all she does is tell us how much Lamar is her priority and how much she loves him, so we can see how not-like-Kim she is. But when she needs to actually show that love in non-sexual ways, she draws a blank and gets snippy with Lamar. Showing love to Lamar in Dallas would have been allowing him to go home to sleep after practice instead of looking at houses so E! can get their scenes, and forcing him to talk so E! can get their scenes and reassure her all the damn time for being the great wife that she is so invested in the public thinking she is.
Poor Lam-Lam. On top of losing his career, he is now a villain in his marriage to poor widdle Khloe who is making this all about how wonderful she is.
