Kobe Bryant Plans To Marry

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) - Some sad news for young, single women in the Los Angeles area surfaced Thursday - Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe Bryant is engaged.

Bryant confirmed his plans after practice, but refused to identify his future bride.

He did say, however, she's not an athlete or actress.

"She's my movie star, she's my star," Bryant, 21, said. "She gives me balance, in the past, I've been pretty much all basketball."

A member of the Lakers' organization, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Bryant is engaged to an 18-year-old woman from Orange County.

The Lakers face the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday in the opener of the Western Conference finals. Bryant said no date has been set for the wedding, but it will be after the NBA Finals next month.

And to those of you who were wondering, it isn't Brandy.

Yeah it definitely isn't Brandy, his fiancee is a white woman.

What makes you think or where did you hear that she is not a sista?

Yea, is she? Not that that is all bad or anything. But,I'm just wondering! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

During the game yesterday, the commentators did name his fiance', but by me not being a Kobe fan, I didn't pay that much attention.

Since the Sixers and my man Allen didn't make it into the next round, I guess I'll have to watch Rick Fox and the Lakers! (well, actually just Rick http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif)

My cousin lives in LA and they showed a picture of her on the news. He said she looked white or hispanic, but she definitely wasn't a sister. I don't mean to sound insensitive or politically incorrect, but I have to say that I am disappointed in the fact that he is not marrying a black woman.

I was just asking what made you say that she was white.

From my understanding, she is an 18-year old girl that attends Marina High School in Huntington Beach, CA. I wonder if he is attending her prom on June 3rd?
(Those of you who are upset about the news of him marring her, please don't go to express the fact that he should be with you http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif)

Many have seen her yearbook photo via the news, it was plastered all over NBC and ABC, (I haven't seen it) and those who have said that she looked either Mexican or Filipino.

She has a 7 karat engagement ring and a mercedes http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/redface.gif

"What makes you think or where did you hear that she is not a sista?"

This is the question that I was answering, not the same as "I was just asking what made you say that she was white."

Because Mexicans and Filipino's are NOT sisters by any stretch of the imagination.

NO KOBE NO!!! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/frown.gifI saw this on the news and I saw her picture. I'm not gonna hate. She is a pretty girl. I think she is latino, but you can never really tell until someone tells you what their nationality is.
Why Kobe why???

I wasn't saying that being either one of those makes you a sista. It doesn't make you white either.

Oh Kobe........I thought it was going to be me! (just kidding) I have not seen her but I bet she is pretty. Alas Kobe is getting engaged and Allen is dating the Brat. Now both of my men are taken

i noticed this thread and i couldnt figure out her ethnicity either but there is a pic of her (and that rock) at http://www.amatuerpundit.com under the may 22, 2000 peoples section
