Magic Johnson

HERE’S WHAT WE KNOW…

Desperate times call for desperate measures, just ask Donald Trump. We just heard that Donald is freaking out now that Kamala Harris and not President Joe Biden is who he’s running against. Reports just circulated that Trump is looking for black surrogates to take to the airwaves and sing his praises. He’s SO desperate that he even reached out to his former friend, Kanye West, and asked the troubled rapper if he would appear on his behalf. Kayne hasn’t agreed yet, but my source says the attention seeking Kanye will likely do it just to stay in the limelight.

Record-breaking gold Olympic medalist, Simone Biles has big plans once she retires from gymnastics. We just heard that Simone is set to host her own sports related talk show on ESPN and none other than her pal Magic Johnson will be producing! Details are just trickling out, but expect to see Simone’s show in 2025.

It was just announced that Britney Spears inked a deal with Universal Studios to turn her autobiography, The Woman In Me, into a big screen movie. As we previously reported, Britney also wants to turn it into a Broadway musical. We just heard that as part of her seven figure deal Britney has the right to not only approve casting of the movie, but also to launch the musical. A worldwide search is underway for an undiscovered singer with real chops who can portray Britney.

In sad news this week, Taylor Swift was devastated that three innocent girls were stabbed to death in the UK at a dance studio featuring her music. Taylor does not want any publicity for this, but we just heard that she is picking up the tab for all of the funeral arrangements and anonymously made huge contributions to the Go Fund Me pages launched to help the victims’ families.

Jennifer Aniston was photographed this week filming her popular series, The Morning Show. Photographers caught Jen filming one scene where she was splattered in oil and another where she’s having a breakdown. We just heard that Jen has a big surprise for viewers. She persuaded her ex-husband and still good friend Brad Pitt to appear in upcoming episode. Brad hasn’t filmed his spot yet, but it will likely air later in the year or even as the season finale.

Finally, the biggest news of the week is who will current Vice President Kamala Harris pick for her own vice presidential running mate. While our secret political source has a few theories, we do know is that Kamala just filmed various television commercials touting her choice. She was proactive enough to film different variations of the commercial featuring the top three contenders for her running mate. No one knows who she’s going to pick, but Kamala wanted to be ready to blast the airwaves with television commercials once she makes her choice. For what it’s worth, my political source says Senator Mark Kelly from Arizona seems to be the front runner but Pennsylvania’s Governor Josh Shapiro is a very close second.

THE JOHNSONS: LIVING IT UP IN EUROPE

Magic Johnson and his wife Cookie like to spend a month every year on a cruise in Europe and this year they rented their favorite jumbo 281 foot yacht for 1.1 million dollars a week! Can you IMAGINE the luxury? Samuel L Jackson and LL Cool J and their significant others came along for the ride. The Johnsons’ colorful son EJ flew in this week to join the family and he could hardly wait to start shopping. We’re betting the family got a lot of stares when they were browsing the designer shops in Tuscany…

THE JOHNSON KIDS KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN

We didn’t realize that TV personality EJ Johnson had such a beautiful sister until we saw this photo on Instagram. You might remember EJ, 28, and Elisa, 26, from Rich Kids of Beverly Hills – their parents are Magic and Cookie Johnson. They both love fashion and have even been known to share a boyfriend. EJ looks like a giant in this photo but he claims to be only 6’2”, so it must be the high heel boots. The siblings often hang with each other and were just seen partying in Miami. This pair must get a LOT of attention when they’re out together…

EJ JOHNSON LIKES TO FLAUNT HIS HANDBAGS

EJ Johnson, 28, is keeping cool in New York wearing a crop top, a miniskirt, and what looks like an Hermes Birkin bag in turquoise. The Rich kids of Beverly Hills star certainly lives up to the title of his now cancelled reality series. EJ is said to have a massive and colorful collection of pricey Birkin bags – at least two of them are crocodile and worth over $100,000. Can you imagine carrying around such an expensive bag? It seems like an open invitation to thieves! EJ has been studying acting and he hopes to get into the fashion business, but he never seems to be looking for work…

THE JOHNSONS: IT’S A FAMILY AFFAIR

It’s nice when family members share the same interests, and EJ Johnson, his mom Cookie, and his sister Elisa all love fashion. You might remember EJ’s cute 22 year old sister, from her appearances on Rich Kids of Beverly Hills. The Johnsons are dressed to kill here and excitedly on their way to Tom Ford’s runway show at New York Fashion Week. Apparently dad Magic is the only Johnson NOT interested in fashion.

EJ JOHNSON WILL NEVER BE MISTAKEN FOR A HOUSEWIFE

Bristol Farms is the fanciest supermarket in Beverly Hills and it’s always loaded with celebrities. Sometimes it’s difficult to notice them, however, because the food is so amazing. Yesterday we were there to purchase some freshly carved turkey and we missed seeing EJ Johnson who shopped a few hours later. Now this is one celebrity NOBODY could overlook – thanks to EJ’s flamboyant apparel. We’re quite sure he livened the place up with his cut-off shorts and billowing sheer wrap. Losing weight really changed EVERYTHING for him.

ON VACATION WITH THE JACKSONS AND THE JOHNSONS

Look who’s on a double date: Magic Johnson and his wife Cookie and Samuel L Jackson and his wife LaTanya (she has the foot cast.) The foursome, along with Magic’s son EJ, are vacationing in Saint-Tropez, and they all did a little shopping and finished it off with ice cream cones. Both couples have long marriages by celebrity standards – Sam and LaTanya met in college and have been married since 1980. (LaTanya has a Master’s degree from NYU.) Magic married Cookie in 1991 when she was in the fashion business. Her clothing line has since grown into a 50 million dollar operation. Yes, both guys married WELL.

RICH KID EJ JOHNSON’S SHOPPING DREAMS ARE COMING TRUE

Earvin Johnson III is living up to the name of his reality show, Rich Kids of Beverly Hills. He’s at The Ivy for lunch and he’s wearing Moschino with leather shorts and knee socks. He’s lost an astonishing amount of weight (over a hundred pounds thanks to gastric bypass) and like many people was inspired to do it so he would wear more designer fashions. He freely mixes men’s and women’s clothes, but doesn’t pretend to be a woman.

EJ JOHNSON EATS HALF AS MUCH AS HE USED TO

“Rich Kids of Beverly Hills” star EJ Johnson left Spago carrying half of his meal to go. Since he had gastric sleeve surgery he’s been losing weight rapidly because his stomach is so much smaller. We’re guessing he struggled a bit over his first holiday season on this eating program, but he looks deliriously happy because he can wear more designer clothes.

MAGIC JOHNSON IS PROUD OF HIS SON EJ

Magic Johnson seems like an impossibly cool dad with his flamboyantly gay son EJ Johnson. EJ has made quite a name for himself on “Rich Kids of Beverly Hills” and his parents DO indulge his desire for designer apparel. The family was photographed shopping at Kyle Richards’ store in Beverly Hills. EJ seems to have toned DOWN his look somewhat for the occasion. (But he does have a clutch bag in his other hand.)
