An emotional Jimmy Kimmel dedicated his entire one-hour episode show Monday night to pay tribute to the late Kobe Bryant
to Bryant. Kimmel also took to Twitter to express his condolences to Bryant's family over the tragedy.
The late-night host proceeded to explain that though much of the discussion has centered on the basketball star's "incredible gifts and prowess," O'Brien wanted to take a moment to "highlight another aspect of Kobe's talents." "He was very funny and charming," O'Brien said of Bryant. "Whenever he was on our show, he was just a joy to talk with and he always had the audience in the palm of his hand.
"It's still so hard to fathom the news yesterday that we lost Kobe Bryant. It didn't feel real when I heard it. It's so unspeakably sad," Corden said. The late-night host then went on to say that despite basketball having not played a "major part" in his life while growing up in Britain, "there are some athletes that transcend their sport before you ever get a chance to see them play and Kobe Bryant was one of those athletes.
