Some people seem to look for controversy no matter what.

Kobe Bryant is hosting a party for Show Magazine this NBA All Star Weekend. A decision that has drawn criticism from a few online publications.

Sure Kobe was involved in a scandal in 2003 involving an alleged rape (a charge that was never proven, Kobe settled out of court).

Does that mean the man isn't entitled to have a good time?

I'm sure he is getting paid a large amount of money to host the event.

Also Show Magazine told TMZ that the NBA had approved the flier for the event which means they don't see anything wrong with it.

The last thing the NBA would want is for their star player to be caught up in a situation that would reflect negatively on him and the league. So if they are ok with it then we should be too.

In my opinion people need to just lighten up.
