Kobe Bryant Proposed Permanent Statue At Crash Site Cancelled

Following the construction of a temporary Kobe and Gigi Bryant statue this week at the site of their tragic helicopter crash, TalkGlitz gathers a permanent sculpture will not be installed.

In a related report byTMZ, the City of Calabasas officials said "no plans for any sort of memorial at the crash site."

A spokesperson for theMountains Recreation Conservation Authority, which oversees the site of the tragic crash, added that there is to be"no permanent memorial on the site."

It does not mean one could ultimately end up being placed there at some point down the road but the rep for the MRCA confirmed there's nothing currently in the works for now or the future.

It'd be rather disappointing for those who wanted to see a statue erected. Not after a 160-pound one was placed on the scene by sculptor Dan Medina on the anniversary of the crash on Wednesday.
