Odell Beckham Jr. x GQ
Odell Beckham Jr. is just 23 years old and already an NFL superstar, but he is not yet paid like an NFL superstar, so he spent the off-season the only way you really can when you’re young, famous, and about to be super rich: house-sitting for Drake. The mansion near Calabasas, specifically, the one Drake has referred to as “the YOLO estate.” Really nice pool. Beckham’s eyes still go wide when he talks about the place, like a man who has seen things. “His house,” Beckham says, “can’t be messed with. Right now, we’re on two different levels.” (Note: “Right now.”) - GQ
Beckham sat down with GQ editor Devin Gordon to dish on the recent photos that emerged from Drake's party of him and Khloe Kardashian, amongst other things.
"Whoever was there taking the pictures inside of a private party, inside of a private-er, private-er area of the house—we were in the kitchen of the house, where there was only like 15 people. It's just kind of like...'dating'?" he said. "I just met this person. This is maybe the second conversation we've had."
OBJ then went on to suggest that the photos may have affected a relationship he was in at the time.
"Things go like that," he said, "and then some other girl that I may have been talking to her about it, and now it's more drama, more commotion in my life. And I'm sitting here trying to explain my situation to somebody, and it's really not even a situation."
OBJ is clearly finding out that fame isn't always all it's cracked up to be.
Elsewhere in the interview, the Pro Bowl wide receiver also touched on his now-epic rivalry with Josh Norman that started in Week 15 of the 2015-16 NFL season after the two wrestled and fought on the field in the middle of a Panthers/Giants game. The outspoken players have continued their war of words on social media throughout the offseason:
That boy should thank me for all I've done for you !!! Your welcome tho ... Lol
