AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian attended a midnight Sunday Service gathering in honour of her friend Kobe Bryant, after the basketball player died in a helicopter crash on Sunday, January 26, morning.
The reality star shared videos of the service on her Instagram page, which took place just hours after the 41-year-old and his daughter, Gianna, 13, lost their lives when his private helicopter crashed in Calabasas. Seven others died in the crash.
During the ceremony, gospel singer Kirk Franklin asked the crowd, "Why do bad things happen to good people?," while Chance The Rapper also performed alongside the Sunday Service Choir, which was founded and led by Kim's husband, Kanye West.
Hours before Sunday Service, Kim posted a picture of Bryant and his daughter on Instagram with the caption, "My heart is so heavy. No one should ever experience what Vanessa is going through."
"This has affected us all so much but I cannot begin to imagine what Vanessa is feeling losing her husband and baby girl," she continued. "I cry just thinking about it. I am praying for their family and everyone's families who perished in this unthinkable tragedy. Rest In Peace Legend."
Kim's younger sister Khloe Kardashian also tweeted, "This can't be real, there's no way!!! My heart hurts," while her brother Rob Kardashian added, "All I'm thinking about is his wife and daughters... they need their Dad... Rest in Peace Mamba."
