Lamar Odom removed from Delta flight twice after 'vomiting all over the aircraft

Lamar Odom was ordered off a Delta flight twice on Monday night after he vomited all over himself following a night of drinking.

TMZ reports that the former basketball star was in the Delta Lounge at Los Angeles International Airport 'pounding down beers and whiskey' before boarding a red eye to New York City, and ran into some trouble soon after he got on the aircraft.

Two passengers in first class tell TMZ, Lamar went to 4B and sat down, but as the plane was about to pull back he bolted for the front, threw up in the galley and then walked in the bathroom and with the door open threw up again. When he came out of the bathroom, we're told he had vomit on his clothes.

The passengers tell us the flight attendants "gently" escorted Lamar off the plane, and a cleaning crew came on board to deal with the mess. The flight attendants put Lamar's carry-on belongings in a plastic bag and removed them from the plane.

Ten minutes later, Lamar suddenly reappeared and walked down the aisle -- with vomit still on his sweatpants -- and took his seat again. Minutes later, we're told Lamar got up and went back to the bathroom, using the heads of people in their seats to steady his balance.

One of the passengers told the flight attendant, "Don't you know his history? I don't want a dead body at 30,000 feet." Lamar was again removed from the plane and the flight took off, arriving to NYC 40 minutes late.
