Vanessa Bryant gave mourners at the public memorial for Kobe Bryant an intimate portrait of her husband and their daughter Gianna. Watch her moving tribute in its entirety.
Its heartbreaking and sadly very true, when you see videos of Gigi and Kobe you can see how attached she was to her dad. Gigi would have been broken without him.
Who still crying in April??...and whoever disliked this sad video they don't have a heart or respect for someone that lost they soulmate/husband & baby girl R.I.P TO EVERYONE WHO DIED IN THE HELICOPTER
@@smsbackupcarlos Other families has also lost their loved ones. I can't imagine how are rest of the girls feeling losing their 3 teammates and 2 coaches at the same time . Idk now who will going to train them.
@@sandynahomi5066 You got to be joking, she just lost her husband and her daughter in one day and you want to bring up the mistreatment of her ex housekeeper
I agree.. She has too many reasons to be sad. I kinda hated when people laughed at her when she found out Kobe and Gigi died. But she's strong, she'll get through it.... Well, I wish she could.
@@lacarlaaa2987 you are kidding right? People actually laughed at someone's pain. Oh Jesus. My head hurts. I pray no-one has to ever endure such pain, not even the imbeciles who mocked her pain.
@@capitalpink1840 My thought too. Too worried about her hair being perfect as well as her waterproof makeup. And now she's suing. Greed can't fill the void of a loss.
Lron Hubbard dude she cried and this was 1 month after and if u see shaq and mj’s talks she cries and in the beginning she was crying when she talker about gigi
This lady is 1,000x stronger then I would ever be. How she had the strength and courage to get up there and speak is beyond me. I can't fathom the pain she is experiencing.
"A women's strength isn't just about how much she can handle before she breaks.It's also about how much she must handle after she's broken".God bless🙏Vanessa Bryant the strength she is displaying right now is beyond belief it can only be God given that she can stand before all these people today
I wouldn’t have blamed her if she would’ve just stepped down and walked away from giving this speech. I don’t know if I could have done this if I were in her position. What a strong woman. *Edit* Wow, thanks for the likes! Also, to all of the people watching to honor Kobe but want to say hurtful things about Vanessa...How does that make sense to you? If the great, respected, honorable Kobe Bryant chose HER to be the mother of his children and life companion, she must not be too bad. That’s disrespectful to his legacy. Spread love-Not hate. Sending prayers to all the families and loved ones involved.
T. J. What a heartless thing to say. She’s clearly in pain. You are obviously a bitter person. I’m not trying to defend Kobe’s wives feelings for her. I just honestly can’t believe there are people in the world like you! 😳 Have some compassion, damn.
This is really sad ,I losted a baby girl ,I know how she feels ,but,it's very sad to lose your daughter and your husband at the same time ,I pray God to keep her strong and will comfort her
Kobe said, Vanessa is the strongest person I’ve known. This man was extraordinary in many ways, imagine what type of woman he had by his side, from day one.
Nika n A Prideful woman trying to sound black when she's Not. Pride is a Sin in the Eyes and Ears of God. I believe God was trying to Stop her daughter from turning into a tom boy or lesbian and be involved into the illuminati lifestyle her Dad was into, his god was Sports he had a dark side many were Not aware of, his god was himself.. We are to Be New Creators in Christ, Invited Jesus christ Into Our Hearts and be Christ like, Serve God 24/7 from the Time He Wakes us up Thanking him till the Time we Go To bed and meditated on God in our beds, We are To have a Constant Relationship with God...Did kobe have That with God?? Not Everyone Goes To Heaven...Speaking the Truth because I Care for There Salvation. Father God Please Reveal the Truth to Vanessa about her husband and daughter and what does She Need To do To enter Heaven in Jesus Name I Pray AMEN...
Maremi Ralte Who Made You God I will Shut up when God Tells me To...I Rebuke You Satan in the Name of Jesus... God followers are To Speak the Truth So Others Won't whine up in Hell.. I Could See You also Need God in Your life. I Pray for Deliverance, Transformation and Salvation in Your life I Pray Father God Reveals the Truth to You how To Enter into God Kingdom in Jesus Name AMEN...
Original Name it’s crazy how people blame God for tragedies but won’t acknowledge him otherwise... this tragedy was not an act of God.... not his nature.
Original Name You do realize in the Bible, God destroys people who were rapists, murderers, sacrificing children on fire-burning altars while the parents couldn’t hear the screams of their children dying because the murderers would play loud music to suffocate the sounds? You need to repent from your sins and trust in God. He isn’t a murderous, violent Creator. He is by nature love itself. He is Loving, Holy, Just and Righteous. May the Father bless you and draw you to Jesus Christ.
That got me so emotional and made me cry too its heartbreaking everything shes going through after losing the 2 people that meant so much to the family
I love your family I’m sorry to hear that they died they were legends like you and all the other girls she is a really good tiktoker I’m sorry you lost your husband and baby girl there so sweet she is so smart and good at basketball I play basketball and when I heard they died and how they did you are legends went to my bed and cried I will miss them forever I will be there for u don’t worry❤️❤️❤️💕💕😥😥😥🏀🏀🏀🏀🏆🏆🏆🏆 fly high legends. You will be missed KOBE and BABYGIRl GIGI she would be the best player ever in the WNBA Fly high legends mamba out mamba forever he made the best mamba uniform ever fly high legends mamba
I know Kobes dad is taking it so hard. That was his friend that was his only son. He taught him to be the great man, husband, and father he was. I can only imagine the pain of a father.
Even doe i didn't k him , but my heart goes out to she and the girls, u are an incredible mom to the girls, the Lord bless u and strengeth u may he overshadowed u with his peace
Well they are the past . They are here no more . How should she speak ? As if they are in front of her ? No . They are gone and in the past however sad . Rip Kobe and Gianna 🙏🏻❤️
Peter Siegfried Krug The key unfortunate word...had. Millions of people also die rich in spirit but lived poor materially. We all go to the dust and it hurts all the same. There’s a lot we should strive for in life but if you think riches is all it takes to finally “arrive”, you’re sadly deceived.
WELL forPETES sake I I totally agree I lost my son from an accidental death I wanted to die I have never felt pain like I did when my son passed. But through Christ Jesus who strengthen me and therapy I was able to go on with my life . But not a day goes by without thinking about him and missing him.
Maria Gonzalez I feel you my mom is 80 yrs old I try not to think about my mom not being here my mom is my best friend I can’t imagine my life without her.
Felt that too but why didn't anyone from Kobe's family speak? His mum? Dad? His sister maybe? Or maybe they were not asked or just chose not to. End of the day that was their only son and grand daughter regardless of the misunderstanding that happened before the crash
Why watch the video when you know it's a tribute just to dislike it? Be respectful she's lost her daughter and her soul mate God rest their souls......
She probably cried it all out after a lot of crying you get to a point where you just don't have much tears left to cry. I keep her and her family in my prayers. Losing a loved one is hard enough i can't imagine losing your baby and hubby at the same time :(
Balled my eyes out, i don’t understand how people can be giving hate to vanessa, she not only had to eulogise her husband but her daughter too, imagine losing your soul mate & bbygirl at the same time, its honestly heart shattering. Hats off to vanessa for being strong enough to stand through this ❤️ endless prayers with her & the girls ❤️❤️❤️
Anonymous Girl i never said she gave birth to kobe?? I was just stating that its extremely insensitive of people to give her hate for this eulogy and also you do not know whether his parents declined to do the public speech.
I love that she started her speech with "Gianna Bryant IS an amazingly sweet...." She didn't use "was." Anytime a person dies/transitions, we say "was." We are souls having a human spirit. She feels her presence in this realm strong. I'm sure Gianna and Kobe were up on stage with her. Their spirit lives!
One amazingly strong woman.Her husband and child died and she was able to stand up there and give eulogies.Look at Michael Jordan, crying like baby for a friend.That is when I cried.Just looking at Michael.Yes Vanessa is strong.
Parents shouldn’t have to bury their child. It’s not the way it should be. I can’t imagine the pain this woman is going through not only loosing her husband but loosing her baby girl too. And his parents losing their son and granddaughter. I feel bad for his other daughters. They lost their sister and their dad. RIP to 2 legends and to everyone else in that plane especially the other girl. I’m sorry I don’t know her name but those families are grieving the same loss. So RIP to everyone on the plane and 2 little girls who left this earth too soon.
"God knew they couldn't be on this earth without each other. He had to bring them home together. Babe, take care of Gigi." My God my heart is broken😭😭😭😭
OHHHHHH what a God 🙄. Exploding in a fkn helicopter on their way to practice, innocent people and especially the kids, wtf did they do to deserve this 🙄. Yes this God is such a fkn hero 😡😠🤬🤬!!!!
Keda Moore What I want to say is my sincere condolences go out to the Bryant family and all the people that were lost that day. It was a big loss for us all. God bless and stay with God.
I don't know how she was able to get up there and do that. Don't think i could do it. She's very strong. I can see why kobe chose her for his wife. She kept the family together.
Deanna Isaac I had to do that just few weeks ago in my moms ceremony is really hard to do it. Specially in her case is her husbands & daughter but no one will talk about them like she’s doing it. My love & respect to her & her family😔😔😔🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
@@matitzarobles7971 Sorry for your loss. A person has to be extremely strong to speak at a loved one's memorial/home going service. When my mom passed no way i could speak at her funeral. I just stared at her laying in the casket. I was motionless, and quiet while my uncle tried to pull me away. I didn't even realize that the service was starting. You are a strong one honey!!! To imagine having to speak at the memorial of your child is even more devastating.
Yes .! It’s Just Truly Amazing She’s Still Standing And In The Right Mind Frame Because That’s Just So Much For Any Women Or Men To Deal With.! And Be Present In The Right State Of Mind ,.God Bless Her Help Her Be Strong For Herself And Her Beautiful Baby’s ❤️🌹 Amen.🙏🏽👣🕊
I can't. Cannot. This is too sad. Kobe, Gigi, and everyone on the helicopter will be remembered. People don't realize it, but you don't realize how much you love someone til you lose them.
She didn’t cry that much cause at the same time she got tired of crying all those tears in her eyes are all gone cause she cried so much but in her heart they will always be remembered and how much it has changed
mindtraveller in no way shape or form was it fake and she was obviously heartbroken. She’s lost her child and her husband. Don’t be a moron. She done amazing speaking infront of so many people while it’s also being aired to millions.. she’s grieving, she’s dealing with it her own way, the fact she could stand up, speak so eloquently infront of millions of the population takes strength. Nothing fake about it.
can we all just take a moment to recognize how hard it must be for her to stand up in front of millions of people and speak about the two people she loved most. we love you kobe and gigi, you will be missed ❤️❤️❤️
I don’t know how she didn’t cry her way through that whole thing. I would have been a mess if it was me talking about my husband and daughter. She is a rockstar!
“I would like to talk about both Kobe and Gigi but I’ll start with my babygirl first. My babygirl...” The crack in her voice while saying that broke my heart 😭♥️
Vanessa’s parents? What’s her story? Didn’t acknowledge Kobe’s...Kobe took his memories with him when he died...all his memories. It’s a shame Vanessa did not share some of THESE memories!
I give her props just for talking in front of all those people she did such a good job I feel so bad for her and the family. I’m so proud of her I couldn’t do this
This is a tragic and unfathomable loss. She’s incredibly strong. She chose every word of her speech so thoughtfully and heartfelt. It’s so touching that she shared so many personal stories and things about her family. It’s sad when your parent loses their spouse. My dad lost my mom when I was young and seeing him go through a lifetime of pain without her at events and celebrations like my wedding is heart breaking. And losing a child is unthinkable. My brother died as a child and to this day my father is always torn up and emotional especially on certain dates. Understandably. He often goes out on our back deck and stares at the panoramic valley across the way. He’s lost deep in thought, no doubt thinking of my mom and brother. God bless Vanessa and give her strength today, through the coming months, and years. ❤️ Kobe and Gigi live on through their beautiful legacy. They will continue to inspire and change lives forever. 🌹God bless Vanessa, Natalia, Bianka and Capri. ✝️
I could barely speak about my grandmother without crying and the fact that Vanessa spoke about her daughter and the love of her life in one day without bursting into tears gives her a lot of courage and makes her admirable 🥺🥺 I could never do what she did and this goes to show what a strong woman she is 🥺👏🏼💕
@@anndrwd of course ... I cannot understand or imagine the pain that they must ALL feel right now - thinking about all of the families that have lost their loved ones❤️
Aziza Ali I lost my husband 5 years ago and at the time I had a 5 yr old, a 17yr old, and a 15 yr old. My sons are what got me through and still get me through. I cannot fathom how she must be feeling😢
I can see how Kobe fell in love with Vanessa. She is very strong for getting up before strangers and give this incredible speech. I know I would be too heartbroken to do it but she nailed it. God bless her and her family.
I can’t even begin to imagine the hurt a mother and a wife feels when something like this happens, let alone grieving in front of millions. I hope the Bryant’s, as well as the other families who are mourning their loved ones, have the support and love they need right now. Don’t take time for granted - it’s never guaranteed.
Reading you're comment i just think for what is this women and mom punished like this. All she did was love her family be there for them. There are so many horrible people out there living a great life and then moms loose their kids...
Paula Thomas Kobe was a firm believer of God. Don’t spread that negativity. If you’re a true follower of God, you wouldn’t be spreading hate. Disgusting.
