Khloe Kardashian has said that she would move to Timbuktu for husband Lamar Odom.
The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star relocated from Los Angeles to Dallas last year after Odom was traded by the Los Angeles Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Thursday (February 16), she said: "I live in Dallas full time. I travel when Lamar is on the road."
When Jimmy Kimmel said he hadn't thought Kardashian would move, she replied: "That's my husband, I'll go to Timbuktu!"

Kardashian was then quizzed on whether Odom was upset at the trade, to which she said: "It's not Dallas, he was upset, I think, that he was a trade in general. He's very emotional and wears his heart on his sleeve. He was with the Lakers for seven years, won two championships with him…
"Lamar said it's like going to a new school, getting new classmates, a new teacher, everything is new."
She added: "I think we had 24 hours from being told he was traded until when he was in Dallas. It happened so fast, and right before Christmas time, it's a huge adjustment. He was definitely upset but more sad, not angry."
As for whether Kardashian was angry about the trade, she said: "It's not the Lakers, it's a business at the same time.
"It's hard to say to a person, 'This isn't about you, it's a business deal'. I said, 'Everything happens for a reason, Dallas just won a championship, it's going to be amazing. I was very uplifting'."
She added: "The Lakers were amazing to us and even when we came back when the Mavs played the Lakers he got a standing ovation. The fans were phenomenal."
Kardashian and Odom can be seen in the new season of Khloe & Lamar, which premieres Sunday, February 19 on E!
