On the occasion of Kobe Bryant's birth, Priyanka Chopra paid tribute to him on Instagram. The actress posted a vintage video of Bryant speaking with Jay Shetty, a well-known life coach. In her Instagram story, Chopra called the deceased basketball player a "legend" and included crying and red heart emojis. In the clip Chopra posted, Kobe Bryant, a former player for the Los Angeles Lakers, can be seen appearing on Jay Shetty's podcast and reciting a motivational speech as he says, "What I try to is just try to be still. And understand that things come and go. Emotions come and go. The important thing is to accept them all, embrace them all and then you can choose to do what you want to with them. Versus being controlled by emotion." Bryant also discusses how dread gripped him as a young man during the conversation. Jay Shetty shared the same video on his own Instagram post and paid tribute to Bryant and wrote, "Happy Birthday Kobe. This notion of finding stillness and accepting the emotions as they come is something I try and live by every day. Thank you for sharing your wisdom, Kobe. I will never forget it." After the news of Kobe and his daughter, Gianna was reported in 2020, Priyanka Chopra previously made a tearjerking post on Instagram. When she was 13 years old and living in Queens, New York, the actress had written about how Bryant was the reason she fell in love with the NBA.
