Vanessa speaks on the tragic passing just days before the Super Bowl announced a tribute to Kobe will take place. Along with the Super Bowl, the Oscars will also be paying tribute to Kobe as well. If you didn’t know, Kobe actually won an Oscar for best animated short film with his film titled ‘Dear Basketball.’

Many other celebrities have also taken to social media to express their condolences after hearing the news, as well as show support for the Bryant family. For many players and fans, Kobe was as much a part of their lives as their own family.
