Vanessa Bryant,wife of NBA player Kobe Bryant,is apparently not a role-model. The mom of two daughters Gianna and Natalia allegedly cursed out a reporter named Laura Lane in front of her children because said reporter critiqued her outfit(pictured above).
VIA LA OBSERVED:
Laura Lane covers the Lakers for ESPN.com. She wrote a mildly invasive item about that weird purple tutu thing that Vanessa Bryant wore on the floor the night Kobe picked up his MVP award. Then after game 2 of the San Antonio series, Lane was leaving the Lakers locker room when Vanessa lit into her. Lane attributes it in part to the “rumors” of Kobe bonking one of the Laker Girls — “a hotter version of his wife who is also named Vanessa” — who has suddenly vanished from the squad:
So as I’m walking out of the Lakers locker room after some post-game interviews with the players, I pass Vanessa, who is sitting outside the locker room as usual with her two girls.
“Laura!” she screams (yes, she apparently knows my name). “F#$k you! You f*&k*ng b%$#h!”“Excuse me?” I say, completely baffled as I look around me to see if there is someone else named Laura. No, there’s not.
Her daughters – ages 5 and 2 – are sitting next to her on the bench looking at their mom as she screams.
[More f-words ensue. Many more.]
I just stare at her. I’ve heard many stories about her from reporters, but this was unbelievable. Two of my friends from the LA Times told me how she cussed out one of them last season, because he said hi to her daughter. “Join the club, this means you’ve arrived,” said one reporter when word spread of my run-in with Vanessa. “She’s insane,” said another. “Everyone knows it.”Lane is a 2007 USC grad who has worked at E!

Honestly, the reporter deserved it and we all know it. What reporters say or do is always undermined in comparison to the celebrity, that’s the real problem.
You think celebrities just like to attack reporters and paparazzi randomly? There’s always something said or done that ticks them off to the point where they lash out verbally or physically.
A reporter has some nerve to be trying to make some remarks about someone who is just trying to enjoy the company of her kids and husband.
Laura Lane is trash. That’s my opinion, you can have yours.

She shouldnt have acted like that in front of her kids point blank. Theres a time and place and she shows how intelligent she is by using that language
May 28th, 2008 at 4:24 pm
exactly…I agree with Dee.

I know this might sound wierd but juts how many parent curse in front of their kids? A LOT do. I hear it every day from people of different race and background.
But I guess she isn’t suppossed to do it.
For me, i don’t like it. I barely curse when no kids are present, let alone when they are.
I also notice young parents curse more than more grown parents, but that is another story

She does look ridiculous in that tutu, though LOL
May 29th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
Why is it that you seem the innocent one? If you hound me and mine the way you do she and her family, I’d get you told also. I’m sure she doesn’t get the face-to-face opportunity to put you in your place as ofen as you have to write negatives about her. Good job Mrs. Kobe, do it when you can. Now, Laura wants to use this forum to write, “She’s crazy”. No, you’re crazy for accepting such a low-life job. Can’t you do better.

Laura said her outfit was hideous which it was, that’s why Vanessa No Class Bryant verbally attacked her in front of her young daughters. She’s not smart with zero class, typical wife of a athlete.
