It's no surprise that there was tension between Khloé Kardashian Odom and Kris Humphries from the get-go, but now we know why.

Yes, Khloé may seem overprotective when it comes to people getting involved with the ones she loves, but while appearing as a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno this evening, she shared Kris' first words to her when they met...

And, well, anyone might have been a little standoffish after that.

"When I met Kris the very first time, I had just landed in New York and it was late at night...and he was in Kourtney and Kim's suite," she started to explain.

"And I went in there to say hi 'cause Kim was like, ‘Oh, I wanna introduce you to my friend.' They'd just started dating. And you know, one of the first things that came out of his mouth, like within the first five minutes, was, 'So, how much you gettin' paid to fake your marriage? Like how long are you gonna keep this up for?'"

Yeah...maybe not the best first impression.

Lamar Odom's wifey shared that she wasn't sure if he was trying to get her to laugh or what, but that it "just rubbed me the wrong way. So, ever since then, I had a very defensive wall brought up."

Can you understand where Khloé was coming from, or do you think she took the comment too seriously? Let us know in the comments!
