Lamar Odom is no longer with the Dallas Mavericks and RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned owner Mark Cuban dropped the Kardashian hubby because of his attitude and "inconsistent effort" on the court.

“The decision was made by the team owner Mark Cuban after Lamar did not play in the second half of a game against Memphis," a source close to the situation told us.

Inception star Tom Hardy has spoken out against speculation that he has had sexual relations with men after, he claims, he was misquoted in a magazine in 2008.

In a candid interview with Marie Claire magazine in the UK, the English actor said he never regrets anything he has done, but added: "It’s just a shame things are misconstrued and I don’t get the opportunity to explain."

The rumors regarding Hardy's sexuality stemmed from an interview with Attitude magazine in 2008 where he reportedly confessed that he had experimented sexually with men, but the actor claims he meant for a film role - not in real life - as he was promoting his part of Handsome Bob, a gay mobster in Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla
