Kobe Bryant and David Copperfield mixed it up backstage at the World Music Awards, says a spy.
“Bryant was being super-friendly and sort of flirty with the young women in those slinky outfits who carry around the awards,” says a source.
“But after he got booed off stage, he came back in a bad mood. Usher started performing and Kobe said, ‘I’ve got to see this’ but David Copperfield and some friends were watching and he couldn’t see so he very rudely pushed David Copperfield aside. Afterwards, David said something like, ‘Maybe I should just snap his neck or something.’”
Bryant couldn’t be reached for comment, but through a spokeswoman, Copperfield quipped, “[Kobe] didn’t push me. I pushed him and I have the DNA to prove it.”
