Sanaa Lathan Regrets “Kobe Tweet”

View post:

A rumor that Sanaa Lathan was messing with Kobe Bryant while he and Vanessa were married, prompted the “Disappearing Acts” actress to respond to the media. She tweeted a short but direct message to her followers saying “Anybody who pays attention knows I’m not his type… Blank stare. #blackgirlsrock #dontbelievethelies.” In a recent interview with Ebony Magazine , Sanaa admits that she regrets the tweet: “I probably shouldn’t have said that because I don’t discriminate when it comes to dating. I have dated all races and I believe you should be free to do whatever you want. But I was so annoyed because I was having such a great time at the concert and Kobe happen to be standing next to me, and then all of a sudden I was tied to his break-up. That’s absurd, and I tweeted that in the moment, and I regret it. But to each its own. It’s just funny that if it’s written people believe it, and even though I have said I have nothing to do with him, people are still saying when the baby is due?” Sanaa Lathan Is The New Face Of Pantene!
