Following the devastating news of Kobe’s passing, Ciara shared her condolences to Instagram. “This news is heartbreaking. I am lost for words. Praying for @VanessaBryant, the Bryant family, and other families that have lost someone. Rest In Paradise Kobe and Gianna,” Ciara wrote alongside a photo of Kobe and his daughter, Gianna, who also died in the helicopter crash.
Russell also revealed that he was crushed after learning that Kobe passed away. “You were one of my greatest inspirations. You will forever be missed. #RIP Kobe and Gianna. #MambaMentality ??????,” he wrote as his caption alongside a photo of him and Kobe on a baseball field.
Like Ciara and Russell, coheadliner, Jennifer Lopez, also paid tribute to Kobe during her memorable performance at this year’s halftime show. While Jennifer, 50, performed her hit, “Let’s Get Loud,” with her 11-year-old daughter, Emme, the stage lit up with purple and gold colors in honor of Kobe’s longtime basketball team.
