"Kobe Bryant Wears All White For LA Times Magazine Cover"

Kobe Bryant covered this week’s LA Times looking like this… Do his eyes look dark and brooding enough to you? Are you feeling the all white dressy attire with the matching sweatbands??? Pop the hood for more.

"Kobe Bryant Wears All White For His LA Times pictorial"

We think Kobe should dress like this all the time. Gotta love that self satisfied look of pure douchebaggery…

  • Uhhh Yeah Ok.

    o_0 ? Something funny about this set….

  • TKO

    Is it just me or does he look like he about to go pick some cottons?

  • slimpickens

    While I was not a fan of his prior off the court activities, I am a fan of his basketball skills and his obvious cognitive abilities.

  • anewme

    WTF???? It’s to early for this shizt. Let me at least finish my coffee!

  • UUMMMMM

    YUCK!!! He looks like he just stepped off of someones ship…..a gay cruise ship.I’ll bet his wife picked out these clothes.FAILLLL LOL

  • rain

    THE FIFST PIC HE LOOKS LIKE A GAY PAUL MOONeY

  • tb

    Looking like he should be picking cotton.

  • UUMMMMM

    @RAIN
    I thought Paul Mooney WAS gay?!!! NO?? He isn’t??!! OMG where have I been.LOL

  • Roderick

    rain: THE FIFST PIC HE LOOKS LIKE A GAY PAUL MOONeY

    OMG that was the first thing I thought when I saw that first pic. ROTFL

    BTW did they use photoshop to darken him to make the contrast with the white clothes greater?

  • Yun Dun Know

    I’m just not grasping what him and the photographer was trying to capture……

  • lisavee

    @RAIN…LOL!!!!!!!
    @RODERICK..I thought Paul mooney was gay too.

  • Kimmie

    GAY

  • TT boy

    Good look!

    Good morning haters!!

  • http://aol ebonieladi

    I’m puzzled too as to why they made him look so dark. If he was actually that complexion, then no problem, but what was the reason behind darkening up his photos.

  • that damn sh#$ disturber

    i don’t remember him being this dark

  • Whoa

    OMG KOBE COME OUT THE CLOSET ALREADY!

  • Mac

    SOL BLACKMAN WAS HERE.

  • http://bossip.com satindoll

    @ TKO

    lol…I was wondering, WTH? but you put it together nicely…Lol…Right on point

  • Tee

    Lol… y’all gone leave my baby Kobe alone. Go Lakers.

  • UUMMMMM

    You could fry chicken on those greasy a** lips too.They must’ve used the whole tube of Carmex on him.Good LORD

  • BUTTPLUGGER

    HE LOOKS LIKE HE NEEDS ME THE GREAT BUTTPLUGGER TO STRETCH HIM A BIT.

  • CW

    why is he soo dark like Kunta Kinta or something…he looks like a knock-off Tyrese or something..not very becoming and i can’t imagine the misses liked this either

  • tg

    Is it me – or does he look black as tar?

  • Chocolatey

    He looks like he’s in blackface

  • Educated Diva

    HE’S ALWAYS BEEN NOT ATTRACTIVE. IN MY OPINION…

  • Yun Dun Know

    They make the black men darker and the black women lighter.

    Go figure…..

  • http://bossip malcome

    To be honest. He look like a niga, about to tap dance for m.a.s.s.a..

  • What The????

    Oh Haiell naww.
    What is up wit this nigra ish
    come on son you betta than this!

  • UUMMMMM

    @malcome
    RIGHT!!!! Everytime I look at the pics,the term shuckin and jivin comes to mind.LOL

  • Mock Rock Star

    He looks like Kobe Krueger…I think I might have nightmares tonight

  • H.B.I.C.

    wtf is with the scarf around his head, not a good look. not feeling this slightly gay theme.

  • preciouscocoa

    I think it is beautiful. The skin contrasting off the white clothing. Beautiful! It is amazing to me how black people do not want to be darker or hate anything that is dark. DO NOT SPREAD THE HATE! THE COLOR BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL!

  • Hmmm

    No kobe no kobe no!! Those pics are not a good look, 2 in particular lol!

  • AHSHAE

    HE IS LOOKING “YES SIR MR BOSSMAN, I’SA COMING” HE IS A POOR EXCUSE 4 A BLACKMAN- TRUELY LOOKING LIKE A UNCLE-TOM, SLAPPY-WHITE. OH WOW THIS IS JUST 2 MUCH, HE IS P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C. AND YOU CAN TELL HIM I SAID SO.

  • Outlandish On All Counts

    When in the hell did Kobe get this dark? That does not look like him to me.

    First pic…he Amish

    And that second pic with that scarf: he look kinda “how you doin”

    Whats really good with all that white?

  • Shemander

    These pics have to be photoshopped. Something not quite right about them. I don’t like the one with the hat or the scarf but the one with his bald head and no sleeve shirt looks ok.

  • wtfever

    I love Kobe, I think he is a great player and looks good to me in these photos.

  • Man, I just don’t care™

    MY FUGGIN G.O.D. WHAT CAN YOU SAY ON THIS DUMB AZZ FUGGIN SITE??????

  • Sha

    *DEAD*

  • thatbrutha

    OK, YOU PEOPLE ARE REALLY DUMB, STEP AWAY FROM THE KEYBOARD.
    KOBE ISN’T THIS DARK. HE SHOULD CLARIFY THIS.

    SECOND THIS IS THE I WANNA BE A MODEL FACE.
    WHY ARE YOU DAMN NEAR HOMELESS PEOPLE ALREADY TO LABEL SOMEONE GAY!

  • hmmmm

    No!

  • Man, I just don’t care™

    Anyway, he does look like he bout to get ready for the minstrel show for ‘ma.s.s.a.

    Kobe my nucca tho, STAY HEALTHY AND WIN THAT CHAMPIONSHIP KOBE!

  • Rrrrroe Ski Love- A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

    I think the photos are beautiful. It’s sad you all are talking about how dark he is in these photos. Whether they darkened him or not, I love the contrast between his deep dark skin and the bright flowing white. I didn’t recognize him at first either tho, lol. And why should he clarify he isn’t this dark, only black folks would say something like that. We are so confused, we don’t know if we’re tired of seeing light skinned blacks in the media or if we hate seeing dark skinned blacks.

  • Sticky-n-Sweet

    WTF is with all them sweatbands?!

  • smh

    wow he is really channeling his inner negro here lol idk

  • Booger Bear

    I like the photos. However, the Amish looking one is a little odd.

    There was a time in America when black people were discouraged from wearing white. Hell, my Great-Uncle was stopped down south for driving a white car. Some would not sell blacks vanilla ice cream. I’m not kidding! We were also discouraged from wearing bright colors. Yet, when whites acquired a sun tan what do they do? Well, they buy something bright or white to show it off.

    The greatest gift God bestowed on us was our beautiful skin. But some of us are too ignorant to know it. Nevertheless, show off that tan baby.

    Black groupthink is so last century. Think for yourself, don’t be afraid to do things differently, if your black friends can’t respect you for this…it’s time to find new black people to surround yourself with.

  • http://aol ebonieladi

    This has nothing to do with hating black skin. He looks like he is in blackface that’s why the pictures don’t look good to me. His skin doesn’t look naturally dark. If they can photoshop the pictures to look darker, at least make it look more natural.

  • Lady D

    LMAO!! He looks like he should be serving Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck some good ole fried fixin’s.

  • KIMBERLY LAQUISHA

    NOT A GOOD LOOK AT ALL!!!!!!!!! WHITE MAY LOOK GOOD ON HIS ARM, BUT NOT ON HIS BODY!!!!!!!!

  • Lady D

    OMG these comments have me at work flat out crying laughing.

  • Black Republican

    The black race is regressing as a culture and as a people. You wonder why he is married to a woman of another race. Many of you on here lack culture and a sense of being. You focus on things that dont amount to a hill of beans and get upset over trivial matters, yet you dont focus on things that are important. Kobe is paid and has a college degree and speaks french. What I like about this pic is that he is not ashamed of his blackness, and I am starting to like this pictorial. You blacks need some culture because the lot of you act like some kids.

  • Britchick91!

    ROTFL

  • 0_0 hmmm…not so much

    Why is Tobe pullling a Zoolander? He has the same weasel-looking face no matter what shade they make him.

  • SMH

    Why did they make him look so dark? Dark is beautiful and everything but that’s not his real complexion.

  • pepper

    He looks like Paul Mooney in the first one, which is neither good nor bad. My favorite is the one with the vest.

  • Ayanna

    @ Black Republican
    wtf you moron, no one’s getting upset, just stating the obvious that Tobe looks fugging ridiculous in this pictorial.

  • Sharona Ponder

    He kept it safe, and thatz okay for his first try. Most of his photos he is posin with a basketball in his hand. He has stepped off the ball-court and struck a posses. Cool

  • PYT

    The A** looks like Paul Moony to be honest.
