The Nutella chocolate spread company says it will no longer use Kobe Bryant as its spokesperson. A representative of the firm says, "Marketing plans established earlier this year did not contemplate a contract renewal. In keeping with this decision, and considering the recent developments, Kobe's image on Nutella labels and promotional material is being phased out."
Not only did he lose Nutella, the soda industry isn't to happy with Kobe's recent sexual decisions either. Thats right, Kobe won't be receiving anymore free Sprite or Coca Cola! One of his biggest sponsors just kicked Kobe to the curb costing him to lose another fortune. Although Coca Cola claims it has nothing to really do with the incident, the corporation just wanted to take a different marketing approach.
Kobe is charged with sexual assault and is due in court tomorrow in Colorado. Marketing experts predicted the assault case could cost him more than 100 million dollars in endorsements. Yesterday the judge in the case rejected Kobe's request to ban cameras from the courtroom.
Saturday night Kobe won the Teen Choice Award for favorite male athlete for the fourth time in his career, receiving over twelve million online votes. The show will air tomorrow night.

Athletes and their white goldiggers
After all we've been through as a race you would think we would stick together like Jews. I'm not racist, but I must ask: When will black athletes learn from the OJ and his uneducated, goldiggin' white wife? Black athletes are the only black men at the top of their field. Do politicians, CEOs and Hockey players marry black? Aren't these playrs single mothers example enough that black women are capable? and that our communities aren't to be disregarded if we are to survive til the end?
I'm 21, black and -unlike Kobes' wife- going to school... NOT chasing a black man for his a baby and his money. There are exceptions ofcourse. I just hope I can find a man at my level when I graduate dental school...Not in jail or chasing white society (because he'll never understand where he's come from)

HE WILL SURVIVE
He's young strong and talented. Kobe Bryant will survive this bizarre situation. I have faith in him. I really feel his pain, even if he's found innocent of sexual assault,the damage has already been done,all those endorsement deals and shit, damn. I just hope he will come a even better/stronger and wiser athelete because of this and rise to the top , again.
