Freetown | 1 July 2022 | Vertex Media

New York based Sierra Leonean model and artiste, Neneh Ada Koroma popularly known as Queennak was recently seen in the company of a legendary NBA basketball player and ex-husband of Khloe Kardashian – Lamar Odom in Hollywood, Los Angeles, on two occasions and on two different settings. Lamar was also seen chanting ‘I Love Sierra Leone’, while strolling with Queennak.

These instances of the Sierra Leonean singer been seen hanging out a global icon, sparked discussions and insinuations of a possible intimate relationship between the two stars. Social media went abuzz when Queennak was seen taking interviews at the 2022 BET Awards red carpet. Which was incredible to see a Sierra Leonean in such a platform, either as a guest, a performer or an award recipient.

It was just an incredible week for the Queen of New York (Queennak), trending on all social media platforms with surprisingly unbelievable circumstances.

However, Queennak has reliably informed Vertex Media that her relationship with the basketball legend (Lamar Odom) was not an intimate one, but friendship.

She explained that she flew to Los Angeles from New York last week to visit a friend, who ended up introducing her to Lamar on their first meeting. They later met few days back, where Queennak engaged Lamar in discussions about nurturing and mentoring young basketball talents in Sierra Leone, her home country. An idea Lamar appreciated and promised to give it a thought.

“Lamar is a nice guy. I met him through a friend in L.A and he was so accommodating and tolerant. We are friends,” she says.

Queennak added that – “I convinced him to develop interest in mentoring and developing young talents in Sierra Leone. He liked the idea and we chat about it. He gave me his personal contacts and promised to give it a thought.”

Lamar Joseph Odom is an American former professional basketball player, who played for Los Angeles Lakers and others in the National Basketball Association (NBA), he won championships in 2009 and 2010 and was named the NBA Sixth Man of the Year in 2011. Lamar Odom is the ex-husband of popular American TV Host Khloe Kardashian.

It’s therefore a big deal for a Sierra Leonean star to rock with such a global brand like Lamar. And Queennak has never said she was dating the NBA legend, despite flaunting images on social media.
