“This is Los Angeles,” Vanessa says in the video. “The city of angels. Where iconic teams, where iconic moments and where icons have etched their place in the storybook of history. Where nothing is impossible without a lot of hard work and a little imagination.”

She’s not the only one who the NFL drafted to help promote the Super Bowl’s return to Los Angeles after a nearly 30-year absence. Ice Cube, Clayton Kershaw, George Lopez, Drew Barrymore, Ken Jeong, Jhené Aiko, Jay Leno and Shaquille O’Neal also popped up in various spots from NFL Media to promote the City of Angels ahead of Super Bowl LVI, which will pit the Los Angeles Rams against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.

Kobe and Gianna were two of nine victims who died in a helicopter crash in Calabasas, California, in January 2020. The athlete was 41 at the time. His daughter was 13.

The NBA player was survived by his wife and their three other daughters, Natalia, 19, Bianka, 5, and Capri, 2.

In an Instagram post, the mother of four explained that she couldn’t pay too much attention to the artwork behind her, which was created shortly after the tragic helicopter crash by local painter Sloe Motions. The massive mural depicts the athlete kissing a young Gianna on the head with the phrase “Mambas Forever” on the side. The yellow and purple colors represent Kobe’s team, The Lakers.
