Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Sports, Talk Shows, FOX, Gossip, Rumors
David Beckham is being inundated with offers to host his own talk show.
The 37-year-old footballer - whose rolling one year contract with Los Angeles Galaxy is up for renewal in December - has reportedly been offered the chance to front his own sports show by Time Warner Cable. A source told the Daily Star Sunday newspaper, "We want David on board whether or not he continues to play for the Galaxy. We are on our way to becoming the world's biggest sportscaster and he is a key part of our future."
The insider said that the US-based company has offered the midfielder a "multi-million" contract and is "desperate" to secure the father-of-four to host a twice-weekly show on its new sports network. The proposed format would see David interview his fellow athletes, discuss tactics and give him "free reign" to cover any sports of his choice.
But rivals FOX are said to be hashing out a massive counter offer in a desperate bid to lure the successful British star to its network and he is considering his options after being advised to cash-in on his celebrity status.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Drama, Reality, Rumors
Khloe Kardashian's husband Lamar Odom reportedly wants to quit reality TV.
The 32-year-old sportsman - who stars alongside the popular 27-year-old sister of Kim and Kourtney in various shows - is keen to move on with his life away from the cameras, but his wife is unsure if it is a good move.
"Lamar wants out of the reality TV limelight, but Khloe is convinced that if Lamar doesn't continue being on TV with her, there would be no Khloe. The whole reason Khloe has become so popular is because of her marriage to Lamar. She obviously doesn't want Lamar to be unhappy, but she knows that all the drama makes for good TV. Fame is Khloe's number one priority. Unfortunately, this is what she has been taught," an insider said.
His thoughts about the format - which sees them followed in all aspects of their life - have put a strain on their relationship, but as yet no permanent decision has been made.
