Vanessa Bryant Thanks Taylor Swift for Wearing Mamba & Mambacita Sweatshirt in Disney+ Docuseries

Her low‑key wardrobe choice highlighted the Bryant family’s foundation that channels merchandise proceeds to youth sports.

Overview

  • Bryant posted Instagram Stories on December 30 with screenshots from Taylor Swift: The End of an Era and wrote, “What a gift. We love you @taylorswift.”
  • Swift is seen in the docuseries wearing a royal‑blue Mamba & Mambacita Sports Foundation crewneck during rehearsal footage.
  • The Mamba & Mambacita Sports Foundation was created in memory of Kobe and Gianna Bryant and states that 100% of net proceeds from apparel benefit athletes and boys and girls in sports.
  • Media framed the wardrobe moment as a subtle tribute to Kobe and Gianna that resonated with Vanessa Bryant’s public thank‑you.
  • The gesture follows years of ties between Swift and the Bryants, including Kobe’s 2015 onstage appearance and Bianka Bryant receiving Swift’s “22” hat at a 2023 Eras Tour show.
