On behalf of all non-Laker fans, may I say that this thread is outstanding! You go girl, be true to yourself!!
Kobe addressed these pics yesterday after the game. He said not to trust photoshop and the shoot didn't turnout the way they explained it to him. He was clearly embarrassed by them. Haha.
Fine, I won't trust photoshop. What was he doing getting a facial and manicure at a photo shoot for LA Times magazine with a rack of pure white italian designer clothes? How "confused" can you be by the direction of that? I wonder a bit if he had Joey Tribbiani's tailor helping him into some of those clothes.
