Oprah Says That Gayle King Is Getting Death Threats Over Her Kobe Bryant Questions
Gayle King believes she got thrown hard under the bus by CBS when they took a wide-ranging interview she did with WNBA star Lisa Leslie about Kobe Bryant and boiled it down to a clip of her asking Lisa about Kobe’s rape charge. Well, Gayle’s best friend Oprah is here to let us know the Gayle King hate is even more ridiculous than we think. Not only are rabid Kobe stans (and Snoop Dogg) roasting her online with hate, they’re sending death threats, and so now Gayle has to travel with security.
Gayle King Is Pissed At Her Own Network Over An Interview Clip About Kobe Bryant’s Rape Case
“Gayle, listen, I need you to take the heat off of Mama O by asking Lisa Leslie on CBS This Morning about the Kobe Bryant rape case. I’ll get you that high floor condo in… the…. CAAAAAY-MAAAAANS. Mama O, out!” is the voicemail that Oprah may or may not have left Gayle King before Gayle’s interview with WNBA star and friend of Kobe Bryant, Lisa Leslie. Because some are dragging Gayle King for doing her job as a journalist by asking questions, specifically a question about Kobe Bryant’s rape case. CBS tweeted a clip of that moment to promote the interview, and Gayle is trying to stop the dragging of her by dragging CBS for pulling some sensationalism shit.
Vanessa Bryant Released A Statement On The Death Of Kobe And Their Daughter Gianna
It’s been four days since the horribly tragic helicopter crash in Calabasas that took the lives of 41-year-old Kobe Bryant, 13-year-old Gianna Bryant, John Altobelli, his wife Keri Altobelli, their 13-year-old daughter Alyssa Altobelli, Sarah Chester, her 13-year-old daughter Payton Chester, Christina Mauser, and the pilot Ara Zobayan. The helicopter was headed to Kobe’s Mamba Academy in Thousand Oaks for a basketball practice for Gianna’s team. Alyssa and Payton were Gianna’s teammates, and Christina was their assistant coach. Since then, there’s been a billion stories about what happened (fog, the lack of a terrain warning system), and also tabloid stories about how Vanessa is doing for those who have the emotional awareness of a narcissistic rock and haven’t assumed that she’s doing not so fucking good.
Vanessa has done the impossible by either getting it together enough to write a statement or get it together enough to give her thoughts to someone who wrote a statement for her.

The LAPD Is Mad At TMZ For Breaking The News Of Kobe Bryant’s Death Before His Family Was Notified
41-year-old Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna were among the nine people who died yesterday when his private helicopter crashed in Calabasas CA.

They broke it so fast, in fact, that the police weren’t able to even notify Kobe’s family before TMZ could notify Twitter. And they’re pissed about it.
Kobe Bryant And His 13-Year-Old Daughter Gianna Maria Onore Have Died In A Plane Crash
You have definitely heard the news that Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, CA today, and if you’re like me, you heard the news at the farmers market in Hollywood when one of the vendors screamed, “Kobe has died!,” and when everyone looked at him as three shades of WTF covered their faces while they tried to process what he was saying, he screamed, “Kobe Bryant has died!” The news pretty much made time in Los Angeles stand still.
TMZ was first to report that Kobe Bryant died at the age of 41. And forty million layers of sad were added to the story when his rep confirmed that his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Maria Onore, known as GiGi, also died in the crash.
