Sunday Cliff Notes

This week Nicky and Manny are giving Cliff notes of all events of Sunday. Instead of being a night of celebrations and wins, but instead we were met with sadness, grief and shock. Nicky and Manny speak about where they were when they were alerted of the news of NBA great Kobe Bryant’s untimely death. Although Manny wanted to believe it was “fake news” it was unfortunately the opposite. As the day went on, it was also reported the other victims that were aboard the helicopter were his 13 yr old daughter Gigi, Mamba Academy coaches, parents and 2 of Gigi’s Mamba teammates, as well as the pilot of the helicopter. Nicky and Manny didn’t go into details of the crash, but they did describe the upmost remorse for Vanessa Bryant’s loss. As Nicky went on to describe her sadness, she got chocked up trying to even imagine the emotional toll of what it is like to lose not only the love of your life but also your daughter. What should have been a day to process., mourn an share love it obviously took a turn to highlight controversy in Bryant’s life. This tragedy seems to have bought out the worst of people using their platforms to exploit this terrible lost. The duo also conveyed their disgust for those people. The feelings of remorse didn’t stop there, Nicky went on to describe all the artist and celebrities who took the Grammy stage to pay tribute to the great late basketball player. From Alicia Keys and Boys II Men opening number of “It’s So Hard To say Goodbye”, to Lizzo’s dedication, to DJ Khalid walking the red carpet with a shirt of Kobe the day he signed to the NBA. Nicky also relived the astonishing comeback performance of her new single “Anyone”. And to lighten the heavy load, Manny came in with some WWE’s Royal Rumble highlights. Nicky was disappointed with Roman Reign not making then cut. Manny boosted about how the women of wrestling were on top of their game for the big event.
