Sportlight today on NBA hot wife Vanessa Bryant. See her biography and photos here.
Vanessa Cornejo Ubrieta Laine was born on May 5, 1982, in Huntington Beach, California. She met Kobe Bryant at a music video where she was a background dancer. Kobe and Vanessa got engaged while Vanessa was still in high school and it’s been reported that her engagement ring was 7 carats and over $100,000. They married on April 18, 2001 when Kobe was 22 and Vanessa was 18. They married without a prenuptial agreement. (Which should work to her advantage since they are rumored to be getting a divorce).
Kobe and Vanessa have two daughters – Natalia Diamante was born January 19, 2003 and Gianna Maria-Onore was born May 1, 2006.
In 2003, Kobe was charged with the rape of a 19-year-old hotel worker in Eagle, Colorado. Vanessa stood by her man during the whole ordeal, though the Los Angeles Lakers star claimed that he did not rape the 19-year-old and that it was consensual. The charges against Kobe were eventually dropped and as a way to apologize for the whole ordeal, he bought Vanessa a $4 million dollar 8 carat purple diamond ring. She’s got some major bling, doesn’t she?

She is not hot and her attitude has always stunk. Vanessa L. Williams even said so when she was married to Kobe’s former teammate Rick Fox. Her nose is long and crooked, she has horse gums, and the shape of a 14 year old boy. The only thing nice about her is her hair and her fashion but money can do that for almost anyone. She’s a video-hoe groopie that got with a great ball player. But their marriage isn’t a happy one. Poor kids. Plus they look just like Kobe. And they’re girls. They can blame their parents for the karma.
Oh…LAKERS ’09!

Kobe is a very lucky guy! His wife Vanessa is so pretty. When I view pictures of them together, it is obvious that Kobe knows he has a beautiful lady that is HIS wife. It looks like they are very happy together in the pictures I’ve seen. You go Vanessa, you are beautiful and I am happy for you! Kobe, be faithful or you are gonna lose her, I believe your near loss of Vanessa has scared you straight, and that is a good thing!

She is a gold digging video w***e. She makes me sick. She is just so in your face.I hope she divorce his dumb behind, take those hairy face kids with her, and take all of his money. She is a Mexican and knew what she was doing. Dare I say she get it from her Mama. Long behind nose and big teeth. So ugly. Hate her. She gets no points. Since I cannot stand him he gets what he deserves.
