Lamar Odom's Kids -- No Shows at Wedding
Lamar Odom's baby mama tells TMZ the two kids she shares with L.O. won't be at his wedding to Khloe Kardashian.
Liza Morales also tells us she did not have a meltdown, contrary to some reports, but admits, "Yes, the circumstances over the last few weeks have been upsetting but none of my actions publicly or from the privacy of my home could be classified as a meltdown. I have maintained a brave face for my children who are my main concern and I remain strong for them."
She went on to say she has "the support of my family and friends and Lamar's family have been nothing but supportive of me and the kids during this difficult time. I wish Lamar nothing but happiness we all deserve to be happy."
Taking the high road -- never a bad thing .... but the kids still ain't going to the wedding.

Lamar Odom Backs Out ... Of Signing Appearance
It appears Lamar Odom has gotten cold feet and called the whole thing off -- his planned appearance at a sporting goods store, that is.
L.O. was supposed to sign autographs today at a mall in Huntington Beach, Calif. -- but just canceled. We talked to the store and apparently Odom told them he couldn't make it because of that whole wedding thing he's got going on tomorrow.
The appearance was booked about a month ago -- or right around when he met Khloe Kardashian.
UPDATE -- A rep for the company that set up the event tells us they "will be and are currently reimbursing individuals for their pre-paid tickets."

Lamar Wants Prenup -- But There's a Problem
TMZ has learned -- although Lamar Odom thinks love conquers all -- he decided to hedge his bets with a prenup. But there's a big complication.
Odom has lawyered up and so has Khloe. The problem is ... they have to get married on Sunday and there isn't enough time to hash out the details of a prenuptial agreement.
Why, you ask, isn't there enough time? We've learned they must get married on Sunday because one of the Kardashian reality shows is footing the $1 million bill for the wedding, but the deal is that the wedding must be shot this Sunday.
So we're told Lamar wants a postnup -- meaning the agreement will be hashed out and hopefully signed after Sunday's event.
Now here's the intrigue. There's talk that Sunday's wedding might not be the real deal -- it could be a non-binding ceremony. It's common with a postnup that bride and groom would not officially tie the knot until after they sign the document. What they typically do sign before the ceremony is an acknowledgment that it's not really an official wedding, to prevent misunderstandings down the road.
And speaking of problems ... we're told lawyers for Odom and Kardashian are already arguing and hitting road blocks.

When Lamar Met Khloe ... And It Cost Him $3,000
"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach" ... and the way to a Kardashian's heart is apparently through her liver.
TMZ has learned exactly how the love story between Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom began -- and it all started with a bar tab around $3,000.
It all went down on August 27th, when Khloe was hosting a "Welcome to LA" party for brand new Laker, Ron Artest, at Halo in Hollywood.
Khloe ran up one hell of a bill that night ... and for some reason, Lamar decided to cover the whole thing -- after all, cash money is the ultimate aphrodisiac.
A source extremely close to Khloe confirmed the whole story, telling us, "At first, she wasn't going to do the event ... but she literally met her husband there. And yes, he paid for everything."
And there's no question -- Lamar definitely got what he paid for. For the record, K and L will be tying the knot exactly one month after they hit it off!
