Vanessa Curry: The Alleged Kobe Bryant Mistress
Kobe Bryant stood tall last night as his Los Angeles Lakers took a 3-1 lead in the West Finals with a grueling road win at San Antonio.
Similarly, the website that claimed the NBA star had an affair with a Laker Girl named Vanessa Curry is refusing to back down under pressure.
Earlier this week, Bryant's lawyer fired off a letter to TheDirty.com, demanding that the post about Kobe and Vanessa Curry be taken down.
TheDirty claimed Kobe had an affair with Curry, 18, who has resigned her position with the Laker Girls - the Lakers' cheerleaders.


Kobe Bryant of the L.A. Lakers (left) prepares to nail a jumpshot. Bryant's lawyer is denying that Kobe nailed cheerleader Vanessa Curry, however.
The site's lawyers are firing back, claiming the story is in fact true, but even if it wasn't, "because Mr. Bryant has previously publicly admitted to similar acts of infidelity... it seems unlikely that any jury would find 'actual malice.'"
Even better: The Dirty's lawyers say the fact that Kobe Bryant's lawyer went and sent a demand letter regarding the matter "only increases the likelihood that this story will receive more attention than it already has."
The Dirty's lawyer then makes reference to "The Streisand effect" - when Barbara made a stink over photos of her beach pad taken from a helicopter and it just made everyone aware of where she lived.
What do you think? Did Kobe Bryant have an affair with Vanessa Curry? If he didn't, should this site be forced to take down the story?

Yes, he certainly DID have an affair with this Laker Girl, and she "forced" to resign or be fired. She has slept with MANY men since becoming a laker girl, he is only one. True evidence is hard to come by in these cases, but someone definitely wants it out there, so we wait and see if/when any real evidence shows up. I hope it does because Kobe is a PIG for serial cheating on his gorgeous wife and daughters and needs to be brought down!

how do you know vanessa curry slept with many men? you dont even know her, she happens to be a very nice girl who has a great heart. So if you have no evidence that this even happened why are you trippen so hard? get your facts straight and then start pointen the finger.

SHE NOT EVEN CUTE GET OVER IT

I'd never marry a professional sportman. They're all about themselves. They're starved for attention, needing to be in the spotlight, and are usually huge sluts.
May 28th, 2008 8:55 PM
Alright,so I know Vanessa..I've known her for two years now..none of this shit is true. Really,its just a rumor one of the girls on the squad started,I know for a fact. Get over it. She had no affair with Kobe.

haha . my sister used to be her best friend during her freshman and sophomore year in high school and she got her ass beat for having sex with a guy who had a girlfriend. She had a boyfriend as well. She switched schools to go to moreau because of that. and also she was videotaped outside of newark days in the community center having sex with some guy on a bench. Also she has a third nipple....Everyone in the city of newark and fremont knows she's a whore!

I understand some of you dislike Kobe because his affairs or because whatever it is.. However, being true or not, you guys deserve the worse.. Kobe has enough money and lawyers to handle this. In few weeks this will be another episode of the past.. However, what is true is that all of you are destroying the life of this girl. So, far, she has been forced to resign as a Lakers girl, probably a long waiting dream that took a lot of efforts to be achieved. I do not care if she slept or not w/ Bryant. However, you guys are destroying her life simply to put trash on top of Kobe... Most probably it is a stupid story created due to jeleous by other Laker girl..my guess. In any case, whatever is the true, if you want to attack Kobe, do so, but do not hurt the life of others, specially this girl. If there is justice, one day you guys will pay for what you are doing to this girl.. All the best Vanessa!!

Maybe she should thought about that before she chose to go off screwing around with him. She knew what she was doing and she also knew that behavior is totally off limits in the Laker organization. She signed a contract stating so. She deserved everything she got.

Curry's parents must be really proud of how ther daughter is making it to fame.
May 30th, 2008 4:53 AM
If they both broke the rules, why didn't they fire Kobe too?
May 30th, 2008 4:47 PM
i have to agree with K.L. she did get her ass beat mutiple times for being a 'mistress' or what ever you may call it. And i dont think she just was given the nickname 'a moraeu ho' for nothing... What a coincidence that ANOTHER rumor was made about her and Why would her own fellow cheerleaders start a rumor about her? Yeaaaa she may be a good person but she sure is a whore.
May 30th, 2008 8:49 PM
dont pick on this girl ..... shes has a good HEAD on her shoulders ...i went to prom wit her.
May 31st, 2008 1:39 AM
i happen to know of her. she went to my high school and has has this homewrecker rep for the longest. she messed with one of my friends boyfriends and caused alot of drama. she mightve been a "nice" person, but if she truly had a good heart then she wouldnt have done the things shes done. i don't doubt at all that this isnt true. i believe it is.. its sad in the perspective of his wife but oh well.. thats why she left my high school to go to another one because so many people didnt like her and wanted to beat her up. .. so shame shame on her.. not very classy..and for kobe.. before this even happened he came off as a jerk to me anyway everytime i watched an interview of him or something on b.e.t... so whatever they both deserved eacthother i guess!

I actually went to school with Vanessa Curry at Moreau Catholic High School and it's not hard to believe this story. I've heard her reputation and I knew her, she is very pretty and she is a very nice person but I think her looks did get to her and that's probably why she's cheated on so many of her boyfriends.

What is wrong with you scum?
Pro ballers sleep around.. so what?
Why is the woman a whore because she slept with some guy? Did he pay her? Is she married? Maybe she just likes tall, proven athletic hoopers? I'd much rather sleep with married women, sure... saves problems on the disengage... if you think like that..
Point is, why would she be at fault? Why? Why not him? The girl's a laker cheerleader, so what's going on @ home for him to do this so close? His wife was a damn bad choice.. and it's not like he wont be paying for the family.. so wtf?
Kobe is a lot of things, sure, but one of them is the very best basketball player alive... which is why we know him. It's ludicrous to think that he's a normal guy...

@Jules: Question my dear: How many sportsmen have you said "no" to? Like they _are_ asking right? You _do_ have a problem with slutty millionaires trying to get up with you, right?
I await your answer, and picture ;)

Vanessa Curry will need an HIV test on a regular basis as he used no condom with the girl in Colorado..What is wrong with Vanessa Brant? You do NOT stay with ahound like KObe...how bout those girls in China he sleeps with when he goes there every summer?
June 2nd, 2008 5:58 PM
Kobe is still at it I see. I hope he understands the fans in Boston will hold up signs and have pics of her on hand signs haha..he is the worst in my opinion..I feel for his lil girls too. NO wonder he played so badly in San Antonio he was stressin about Ms Curry..
June 3rd, 2008 1:49 AM
so because some website publishes a story about a famous person, it has to be true? how narrow minded can you all be...we've seen it before, a going no where girl, goe sout and publictly spreads rumors to get attention...until theres true proof about this, no one has the right to talk down on kobe, he is a great athlete and does tons to help his community and children threw several charity foundations...so to talk down on a person who helps others and does what he does better than anyone else is just wrong...what do you do with your lives besides this?
June 6th, 2008 10:56 AM
Everybody knows that Kobe is a ho. He proved that in Colorado. His wife is playing it like any woman married to an athlete plays it, stay where the money is. Kobe married her right after she graduated high school ( afew months later). Vanessa Bryant doesn't know any better. I mean how many of you would leave a multi million dollar ball player who gives your mother a $150,000 monthly allowance and then provides so good for you that you never have to lift a finger? When a girl sees dollar signs she will turn the other cheek to infidelity. Look at Hilary Clinton.

there is 100 times more temptation for all celebrities (athletes, musicians, actors...) then any average man, if this is true...it wouldn't be a shocker. I'm pretty sure one of the other laker girls started this rumor, being jealous and all...
honestly, i see hotter women then her on a daily bases in LA, she really isn't all that and definitely not prettier then his own wife!
