AceShowbiz - Bam Margera has responded to Lamar Odom's offer for help. After the former basketball player offered him to go to rehab for free amid his recent trouble, the "Jackass" star said yes in a new video.
"Lamar Odom... I just heard your message and yes, I do want your help," the former skateboarder said in the since-deleted clip. At some point, he called out his family members and listed the only "friends" he had left.
Bam's post arrived after Lamar weighed in on Bam's issues. "Well he's got God in his life? A relationship with Jesus Christ should help. But if his problem is alcohol and drugs I would reach out my hand to him and get... him in my facility," he told TMZ.
"I've been through it," the athlete, who runs three rehab centers in California called Odom Wellness Treatment Centers, continued. "If he wants the help, then it's here for him. I'm reaching out my arms to him."
Lamar sent the offer after Bam got involved in a physical altercation with his brother Jess Margera on Monday, April 24 at his family's home in Pennsylvania. Jess claimed Bam wailed on him and struck him multiple times in the head. In the report, cops noted visible injures that they observed. Bam allegedly also said he'd kill everyone in the house, which occupants at the time included his dad Phil and two other women.
Jess claimed that Bam has developed an addiction to meth that allegedly changed him. "But since his meth habit, hes unrecognizable & I really don't know what he's capable of," Jess shared. "Seeing him screaming @ at a person that wasn't there, hallucinating. It's really scary & heartbreaking."
