We’ve been waiting all these years for Vanessa Bryant to breakout into the public eye, perhaps now she has her chance?
Egypt Sherrod reports this week that “sources are buzzing that Bravo TV producers are trying to add NBA superstar Kobe Bryant’s wife Vanessa Bryant to the cast of The Real Housewives of Orange County.”

• Anna Rawson takes a swing at becoming the newest Go Daddy Girl.
• Lance Armstrong breaks his collarbone after taking a spill in Spain. Wonder how the race coverage would have sounded in Punjabi?
• Even NBA cheerleaders aren’t safe in these harsh economic times.
• Some Golden Domers get their Irish up over President Obama’s plans to speak at Notre Dame’s commencement.
• Herb DeShaies, you old dog! Sneaking an on-camera kiss with a sideline reporter & embarrassing your son Jim in the meantime.
• Kevin McHale auditions for the lead role in “Not-So-Young Frankenstein“.
• Speaking of monsters, Kobe’s former maid says she’s taken too much crap from the Laker star’s little missus, Vanessa Bryant.
• The NCAA women’s tournament is a sham, a mockery … a shamockery!
• More news in the Donte Stallworth situation: The receiver said he flashed his headlights at the pedestrian he soon it, who wasn’t in a crosswalk.
• An entire Argentinian soccer team gets ejected after fighting with fans.
It must be rough to be Vanessa Bryant: Your husband Kobe cheats on you, and gets arrested for rape, and the best he can do is offer crocodile tears and a massive ring. OK, so the ring is nice, but is it worth the public embarrassment and shame of having the whole world know about your husband’s sexual peccadilloes? What’s a girl to do?
Apparently Vanessa did the only thing any respectable Housewife of Orange County can do: Turn her anger on her help. According to TMZ, former maid Maria Jimenez is suing the Bryant family for wrongful discharge, invasion of privacy and emotional distress and unpaid wages. Long story short, she’s claiming that Vanessa was the worst boss ever, and if her allegations are even half-truths, it would be hard to argue.
For the second offseason in a row, Kobe Bryant is looking to give the Lakers fans and front office headaches. This time, however, he’s adding some international flair. The guard told YAHOO! SPORTS “that he won’t sign a contract extension with the Los Angeles Lakers until he has tested the global market,” on Saturday.
Bryant, who lived in Italy as a child and owns a stake in Olimpia Milano of the Italian League, says he plans to “solicit overseas offers before signing an extension.”
According to the report, Bryant could possibly leave the NBA for Europe in a dual role of owner and player as early as next summer. The Lakers have Bryant locked up until the 2010-11 season but the reigning MVP can opt out after next season.
Looks like Kobe & Vanessa and Tony & Jess share the same travel agent.

Kobe I would imagine wants Mr. O’Neal to know that he’d much prefer to taste this, thank you very much.
And from looking at the shots, it appears that the Bryants have something in common with Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson. Read more…
By now you probably know that Kobe Bryant’s witch wife Vanessa reportedly cursed out someone named Laura Lane over Lane linking (in her personal blog) to a web rumor that Kobe was cheating on Ms. Bryant. Ms. Lane, who also writes for ESPN.com, wrote in her blog about the confrontation earlier this week.
SbB and others then linked Lane’s piece (which of course was then quickly deleted), and that was the end of the story. Until, like the Dana Jacobsen debacle, ESPN.com decided to report on what happened. Read more…
