    FIRST!!! Kobe looks good. Cleans up really nice. He’s not my favorite athelete — he’s a little to arrogant for my tastes, but he does look really sophisticated.

  • Nique

    Looks like “SQUIDWARD TENTACLES” from Spongebob had a photoshoot. Im not feeling it…

  • Divine

    Looks like the evil rat on any cartoon with an evil rodent! LOL!

    YOU KNOW WHAT I AM SICK OF SEEING? I AM SICK OF THE RADIO AND MUSIC INDUSTRY SABATOGE BLACK ARTIST AND GIVING THERE STYLE TO WHITE ARTIST.(NOW I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST WHITE ARTIST OR WHITE PEOPLE) THE PROBLEM IS SO OBVIOUS. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A COUNTRY ARTIST OR POP ARTIST SING ABOUT “I WAS GETTIN SOME HEAD” OR “MY CHAIN HANG LOW” OR I WHERE MY PANTS LOW” OR “BIRTHDAY SEX” OR I WISH I COULD F EVERYGIRL IN THE WORLD” LIKE REALLY DO YOU THINK THAT IS A COINCIDENCE? OF COURSE NOT. BLACK MUSIC IS BEING STOLEN AND GIVEN TO OTHER ARTIST TO ELATE AND THEN THE ONLY MUSIC THAT CORPORATE AMERICA WILL ALLOW ON BLACK RADIO IS THE NEGATIVE OF OUR PEOPLE BLACK MUSIC IS THE REAL MUSIC BUT IT HAS BEEN POLLUTED AND DILUTED ON PURPOSE. I REMEMBER ANGIE STONE AND AL GREEN GOING OVER TO EUROPE TO HELP”MOLD” A SOUL ARTIST GIVE HER SOME POINTERS ON HOW TO SING SOULD. JOSS STONE!! ARE YOU SERIOUS YOU PAID THESE GOONS TO GO OVER AND TEACH HER HOW TO SING BLACK OR WITH SOUL!!!IDIOTS THAT IS SOMETHING YOU CANNOT TEACH IT WILL EVENTUALLY GET OLD REAL QUICK. YOU CAN COUNT THE NUMBER OF BLACK R&B FEMALE ARTIST WITH SUBSTANCE ON 1 HAND. BUT BEYONCE(NO OFFENSE) RIHANNA(NO OFFENSE) CIARA (NO OFFENSE) KERRI HILSON( NO OFFENSE ARE THE ONLY ONES YOU HERE ON THE RADIO GETTING SPINS AND HEARD ALL OVER THE WORLD AND PROMOTED CORRECTLY. WHY IS THAT? CAN SOME ONE WITH SOME SENSE PLEASE HELP ME TO HELP MYSELF AND MY PEOPLE FIND THE MUSIC AGAIN AND NOT BE AFRAID TO STAND UP TO THE NEGATIVE IMAGERY AND NEGATIVE INSULTS THAT CORPORATE AMERICA IS TRYING TO PAINT FOR THE WHOLE WORLD ABOUT OUR MUSIC

    He don’t look that bad :-)

    I am not a fan of Kobe’s but I saw some pics of him from last year that are way nicer than these, and they made be do a double take.

  • I AM LEGEND (A Wise Man Told Mont Argue With Fools)

    I think my LAKERS can win atleast 4 more before he retires…so that would put him at 8 for the Career..Pau Gasol the best PF in the league now..Ron Artest hes a beast..Big Bynum if he can stay healthy the 3rd bect Center in the league…Yea 3 or 4 more wouldnt be a problem

  • uptowngirl

    That hairline is pushing to the back

  • YOUNG ‘N’ NIEVE

    NOT A BAD LOOKING GUY.I DISLIKE THE PICS MAKES HIM LOOK VERY UNATTRACTIVE

  • Ummmmmm….

    He’s a very handsome a$$hole. Thanks, but I’ll pass…

  • rude gyal

    Looks good to me…

  • Miss B

    @ Ummmmmm….
    He’s a very handsome a$$hole. Thanks, but I’ll pass…
    ……………….

    Agreed!

  • http://afo.net Britt

    Why is his forehead so FLAT!

  • http://BOSSIP Damn D

    That dude is hella ugly……

  • http://afo.net Britt

    @ Damn D I know, I mean how can your forehead be as flat as the top of your head. He’s just a great basketball player, And for that I am not going to give him a pass, I still think as a person he is a jerk. looking like a bird, flat forehead and all.

  • Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    Best player in the game!

  • http://facebook.com/ggoodei ggoodeimc

    I don’t get it.

    Sophistication and Rapist.

    Only in 2009 can man have those two labels on him.

    GTFOOH!!

  • Child Please

    Not a good picture on him from the side. His face is too long and he looks stupid. Play basketball — leave the modeling to the other undercover queens.

  • white male

    rapist

  • PAM

    I think he looks nice.

  • http://bossip MoniSings

    He’s still a jackass…he’s such an a-hole, it detracts from his looks, no matter what.

  • Gymo

    I am not surprised Kobe speaks Italian since a kid and visits there often.
    That’s a very classy look, Black people are being recognized internationally for class and sophistication. About time.

  • GTFOH with the DUMB

    He Stole Chris’ bowtie and y’all hypocritcal f^kers ain’t said sh!t!

    lmao

  • A smarter Black Man

    Why are those of you with the “mirror breaking faces” always the first to call someone else ugly?
    Black&White photos denote artistic style, for all you Ghetto idiots.

    A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

  • medievalpoetry

    @A smarter Black Man
    :-)

  • Amee

    Ummmmmm….
    He’s a very handsome a$$hole. Thanks, but I’ll pass…
    ……………….

    Agreed!

    HERE HERE Agreed too!

  • EverythingI’mNotMadeMeEverythingIAm

    Kobe could always get it, this just furthers my point of him being a triple threat: intelligent, handsome, and athletic. Get ya Italian Vogue on these haters Kobe.

  • http://Bossip Hear me Now!

    SO WHAT! WHO CARES ABOUT HIM?? He needs to just go and be with that Pie Face Funny Built Wife of His!

  • Mary

    Kobe is still a rapist….and a booty banger

    Stop hating,Kobe is the man…Wait until next June ya’ll.

  • interesting..

    I noticed in these photos, that Kobe actually very much resembles and has the features of a white male.. only with black skin.. hmm.. kinda crazy, he really doesn’t have african-american features other than his skin in my opinion. Neverless, looking very dapper.

  • yamya

  • Medieval Poetry

  • Medieval Poetry

    It does look kind of classy though.
