Kim Kardashian and Kanye West once made headlines as the former attended the memorial service hosted by the rapper in 2020.

Back When Kim Kardashian Attended a Late Night Memorial Service for Kobe Bryant Held by Kanye West

The world is made up of billions of people coming from a variety of walks of
life. Yet there comes someone every few years who manages to steal the hearts of
people who are likely to always be seas away from him, brings them together
despite not being in the same place, and most importantly, leaves a majestic
legacy for the coming generations. Such was the magic of the legendary
basketball player Kobe Bryant, whose sudden death in a helicopter crash rendered
everyone speechless with their sorrow. Among those who prayed for the deceased
and used their voices to bring comfort to those grieving were Kanye West and his
ex-wife Kim Kardashian.

West has always been open about his relationship with God and how he confides in
him during his highs and lows. As Kobe Bryant passed away, West gave him a
special memorial with many big names in attendance. The rapper remembered the
basketball player and even dedicated a rap to him.


KANYE WEST’S SPECIAL MEMORIAL SERVICE INCLUDED KIM KARDASHIAN, CHANCE THE
RAPPER, AND OTHERS

In 2020, the rapper’s Sunday Service was a subject of discussion for more
reasons than one. However, as he held a special midnight memorial service for
Kobe Bryant and his daughter, the legacy of the basketball player, his smile,
and his life was all one could remember. Especially as West freestyled, “And I
just broke down, broke down, broke down,”. The service was attended by Kim
Kardashian, who had earlier in the day tweeted love and support out to the
grieving families. While the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star was only an
attendee, Chance the Rapper and Kirk Franklin used their notable voice to pay
tribute to the basketball legend.

Kim Kardashian, who attended the memorial service with her best friend Jonathan
Cheban, opted for a muted down white dress. Being a mother herself, the
Kardashian felt a great grief as she wrote a message for Vanessa Bryant to stay
strong during these tough times on Twitter.


WERE KOBE BRYANT AND KANYE WEST FRIENDS?

As Kanye West got his community together for a late-night memorial on a Sunday
and rapped with love and longing, many assumed that their connection must have
been deep. While one cannot tell what goes on behind closed doors, there was
quite a clash between Kanye West and Kobe Bryant

owing to the rapper’s controversial slavery comments back in 2018 when Bryant
responded with “What the hell are you talking about,?“.

However, no beef followed, largely owing to the fact that Bryant was not one to
indulge in one and also because the rapper apologized on numerous occasions for
the comments he made against his community.

Meet Aliza Siddiqui, a Hollywood News reporter at Netflix Junkie. Her love affair with Hollywood began with Anne Hathaway and The Princess Diaries, but it was the thrilling climax of Don’t Look Up that cemented her infatuation with the industry and its filmmaking. Aliza's journey into entertainment reporting began with her time at Otakukart, where she wrote over a thousand articles. Her writing style is cheeky and engaging, as seen in her report "Somewhat Alarmed," where she narrates Jimmy Kimmel's hilarious story of how Jason Bateman tricked him into gecko-sitting. Aliza's ultimate dream is to study and critique films that capture her imagination and the attention of movie-goers worldwide. When she is not busy binge-watching Sacha Baron Cohen movies and The Office, she loves to curl up with a weathered copy of a Khaled Hosseini or Indu Sundaresan book.
