The clips also showed some of Kobe's cute moments with his daughter, Gigi, when she was a little child, and he carried her, as well as the famous clip of both of them analyzing a live NBA game.

Adam Levine's video ended with a clip of Kobe kissing his wife, Vanessa while carrying little Gigi in his arms and then a dark screen showing Kobe and Gigi's names. One heartbroken fan, after watching Levine's video, said:

"Chills and tears watching this. [emojis] Thank you."

More comments followed, with Donny Osmond commenting with two red heart emojis, while the rapper, B-Real, said that the video was a great celebration of Kobe and Gigi's lives.

Another fan said that Maroon 5's song, "Memories," was a perfect song for the video, while a heartbroken fan said, "My heart is breaking [emoji]."

Adam Levine had expressed his relief at not being part of the official halftime show of the Super Bowl in Miami.

Adam Levine also paid tribute to Kobe Bryant on Super Bowl eve. He performed at Miami's American Airlines Arena, with country music duo, "Day + Shay," also performing.

While he and members of the Maroon 5 band performed, Levine held up a Lakers no. 24 shirt, waved it at the screaming crowd, and as the stage turned purple for "Memories," said:

"I don't know if I will make it through this one with my emotions intact...Needless to say, I think we know who this song is dedicated to."

The singer could hardly control his emotions while singing the song, as Adam let the tears run down his cheeks and sank his face into his arms.

Before his performance, Adam Levine had expressed his relief at not being part of the official halftime show of the Super Bowl in Miami and recalled his experience the previous year.

Levine revealed that he was stressed while getting ready to perform in 2019, along with Big Boi and Travis Scott. The song, "Memories," was released in the fall of 2019 and is dedicated to those who have lost a loved one.

In a tweet announcing the song, Levine mentioned that the song was for anyone who had experienced loss, before adding that it was for everyone.
