Natalia joins fellow newcomer Ella Emhoff, the 21-year-old stepdaughter of Vice President Kamala Harris, who was also scooped by the agency last month.
IMG made the signing announcement just hours before the National Transportation Safety Board was due to present the findings of its investigation into the helicopter crash that claimed the life of her father, as well as little sister Gianna.
Per TMZ, they found that the Lakers legend did not pressure his longtime pilot Ara Zobayan to take any dangerous risks during the doomed January 26, 2020 flight — but that he may have put pressure on himself to please his famous client.
It is believed Spatial Disorientation — a condition in which a pilot loses all sense of direction in thick fog — was a key factor in the accident.
