“I’m Psychotic”: $8,000,000 Actress Gets Vocal on Her Lakers Fandom, Reveals Lifesize Cutout of Kobe Bryant
In an unexpected and candid revelation, a highly successful $8 million actress has opened up about her passionate fandom for the Los Angeles Lakers, and the lengths she’s gone to demonstrate her admiration for the team and its iconic players. The actress, who has built a fortune through her roles in blockbuster films and TV shows, took to social media recently to express just how far her devotion to the Lakers goes, admitting she once had a lifesize cutout of the late Kobe Bryant in her home.
“I’m psychotic about it,” she laughed, acknowledging her over-the-top obsession with the Lakers and the legendary Bryant. “I had a whole shrine to Kobe for a while. At one point, I even had a life-size cutout of him standing in my living room. People would come over, and they’d be like, ‘What is this?’ I’d just smile and say, ‘It’s Kobe. Don’t mess with him.’”
The actress, whose identity has been the subject of some speculation among fans, didn’t shy away from her deep love for the Lakers franchise. Her connection to the team runs deep, with Bryant being a central figure in her admiration. She spoke about how she grew up watching Kobe dominate the court, and how his influence transcended basketball and resonated with her on a personal level.
“The way Kobe approached the game, his mindset, and his relentless pursuit of excellence really spoke to me,” she shared. “He was a reminder that nothing is impossible, and he made me believe in the idea of working towards something bigger than yourself. That’s why I became such a fan, and why I can’t help but feel connected to the Lakers even now.”
The actress went on to explain that her fandom wasn’t just about basketball. She sees the Lakers as an embodiment of a particular mindset — a mentality of grit, resilience, and constant striving for greatness. She credits the team’s success, especially during Kobe Bryant’s era, for inspiring her own work ethic and fueling her ambition.
While the life-size cutout may have disappeared, the actress’s Lakers fandom is alive and well. She shared that her home is still filled with memorabilia, and she continues to watch every game with the same fervor she did when she first became a fan.
“I’m a diehard Lakers fan for life,” she concluded with a smile. “And yeah, I’m still probably a little psychotic about it. But hey, that’s what makes sports fun, right?”
