I’m SO happy for you, Nani! I know daddy is so PROUD OF YOU. I am so PROUD OF YOU!! Your hard work and dedication was so worth it.”
To celebrate, her mother surprised the IMG Model with special presents including signature Kobe sneakers. The same day, Reid posted the emotional moment when she opened her acceptance letter online. She teared up with nerves as she signed in to find out her fate while her loved ones cheered her on via Facetime. She had people celebrating her in the comments. Oprah wrote, “College? Already?!! Feels like just the other day I was Mrs. Whichin’ it with you, and you were 13! O well, guess that was just a wrinkle in time. Congratulations, dear one. USC, you will bless that campus.”
I had these shoes made for Natalia bryant in hopes she’d get in to her top school. Daddy and Gigi are ALWAYS here. Forever and always Principessa.” Kobe Bryant leaped straight from high school to the NBA so he never had the college experience, but he has a connection to USC. He spoke at the school’s Bovard Auditorium in 2018 in an event hosted by USC’s Performance Science Institute, talking about the grit and passion that made him a basketball great and later an Oscar winner.
