Lamar Odom, who plays basketball for the Los Angeles Lakers and reality TV star Khloe Kardashian don’t seem like the kind of couple who would spend all their time relaxing at home. Khloe’s reality show, Meet the Kardashians, documented her and her sisters’ fun, crazy lives, including wild trips to Mexico and Las Vegas. But Lamar says marriage has changed Khloe. It turns out she’s more of a homebody than a party girl.

A homebody is someone whose interests and life all revolve around the home. A homebody would rather stay in on a Saturday night watching a video or reading on the couch than go out and party with her friends.

Homebodies make their homes cozy and warm. For Lamar, the fact that his new wife is a homebody is a good thing, because it means she has turned his house into a more welcoming place to spend time. But some people think homebodies are boring. If you never, ever leave your house, you’re not just a homebody, you’re home-bound.

Are you a homebody, or do you like to go out?
