Vanessa Cornejo Urbieta Laine (born May 5, 1982, in Huntington Beach, California) is the wife of Kobe Bryant a American All-Star shooting guard who plays for the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association (NBA). Vanessa is of Mexican-American descent. In March 2009, Vanessa made headlines when she and her husband were accused of harassing their housekeeper Maria Jimenez, a Peruvian immigrant who is a U.S. citizen, says she worked as a full-time housekeeper at the Bryant’s Newport Coast home from September 2007 to March 22, 2008, and was making $50,000 a year, according to the wrongful termination lawsuit filed Friday. The Bryants’ lawyer, Mark D. Campbell, issued a statement denying Jimenez’s account. “Ms. Jimenez’s outrageous allegations of improper conduct are totally unfounded and patently false,’’ Campbell said. “The Bryants intend to vigorously defend against these untruthful allegations and are confident that the baseless nature of the allegations will be proven.”
