This man is pure joy, i could hate the Lakers, but no one on earth would hate Magic
Was having a bad day until this
The mamba too
Except the Celtics and their fans. 😂
Amen awesome spirit and laugh contiguous. Guillermo was awesome in that coat.
He really is. Magic is a fitting name
13, 14 years ago, I was working a movie premiere at the Manns Chinese Theater. As the show let out , all the stars come out wave to the crowd & duck into their limos & drive off. Magic walks out of the theater , walks directly over to the security rails, signs autographs & takes pictures with all of the people that waited for everyone to come out. He did that for 15-20 minutes easy. Its the little things that go a long way.
Same.
Poor Magic didnt have stuff to do after haha

P😅
@@mrfatuchi😮
I don’t normally respond or reply to comments but I have to jump in because you are 1000% correct! I have seen this man do that multiple times even when he was running late or was tired. It’s actually pretty remarkable.
Magic Johnson can brighten your day with his laughter. ❤
Amen
yeah, his charisma is out of this world❤
Laughter comes from the BILLIONS Dollars and it's hard to get a good vibe with this days economical hardship, when I know most of the people commented here doesn't have thousand bucks the laughter doesn't brighten their day spacially when you see he doesn't have any clue about it
@@geopolitics-with-NimaI really enjoyed this one!
@@geopolitics-with-Nima
He grew up poor. His dad supported their large family by working at GM and also hauling trash in his truck.
Magic cracking up makes me smile and start to laugh. He's contagious!
👀
I see what you did there.
This
👀
I remember when I was in college in the early 90's, Magic announced he had the HIV virus and a medical student friend of mine said he didn't have much longer to live. Now here is in 2023 as healthy as ever and a billionaire. Absolutely fantastic.
I was devastated because he has always been my favorite player ever, I was 19 years old and cries like a baby when I heard the news. God has always been there with him and that's why he is still among us !!
That AIDS from the 90s was wild...
@@rickjames21Yeah, AIDS now is kinda...retro
@@dannynysusthank God!
@@RodrigoMJ32The Lakers were my favorite team at the time. Magic was my favorite basketball player. The news of him HIV was devastating to me!
Props to the directing team to get Guillermo one of those fur coats too. That's respect!
Guillermo is family. Mad love for him and respect.
Love G!!!
G is the man!
I love the people that come out and shake his hand before going over to Jimmy.
Been there 20+ years since day 1
I've been a Lakers fan for 41 years and this man is the reason why.
37 for me. Hes my GOAT
Those were genuine belly laughs from Magic! Loved to see that. Great bit, guys!!
Magic is such a great personality. And he just has a great friendship with Jimmy.
true af
So Very True..I love all Magic giddy interviews but especially with Jimmy. I immediately click..
I met you outside of a movie theater when I was a child and you shook my hand, it was the best thing I can remember happening as a child, thank you Magic Johnson!
I love Magic - he’s just a good guy and deserves all of his success- one of the best recent interviews ❤
Magic’s laughter can break through stormy clouds. What a delight to hear him laugh with no reservations. ❤❤❤
Joyful abandon... like he brought to the court, every game.
Magic is 100% class! True gentleman!
The world needs more people like magic
More people with HIV? No it doesn't.
Magic's laugh is contagious and lights up the whole room
Magic is one of those guests that is just a pleasure to see. And that bit with the coats was incredibly funny. That is why Jimmy Kimmel is the best late night talk show host!
I love Magics laughter! Such a beautiful and addictive laugh! He's an amazing human being deserves all the success .
Magic can just come and laugh for a few minutes - somehow uplifting.
Always love the positive energy he gives to the audience
Magic has the best mood ever! Always happy always laughing and always such a room brightener
I'm happy Magic is still with us by reaching a milestone as an billionaire entrepreneur, and as a hall of famer.
Proverbs 17:22
A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones ~ Magic displays this in laughter.
In 1977 we got to see Earvin Johnson play in Germany with the inaugural McDonald's All American all-stars after his senior high school season. It was such fun to watch him play and that famous smile of his was already magic. Fans ever since.
Magic Johnson is the definition of turning lemons into lemonade
No he’s turning Lemons into champagne and gold…. And rings
Magic is such a vibe😁
I feel good inside just from watching this
What an awesome, humble guy. Down to earth and you know money hasn't and will never change him.
His laughter is truly joy-filled! What a remarkable example of humility and grace!
Magic's genuine laugh always makes me happy.
Magic can light up any room. He looks good for 64. Glad to see that he is still with us. A real gem!
Magic is always such a joy to watch and listen to his stories ❤❤
these two together is pure laughter and joy!!! that picture at the end is Iconic with Jimmy Magic and Guillermo
Magic is the best ambassador for the NBA. And Jimmy Kimmel is a lovable fool! When he bust out those coats he had us bent over laughing. Great interview. So glad the writer’s strike is over. We need comedy like this to even out our days
I like to watch magic Johnson in talk shows like this, I like the way he laughs, he's aura is so positive and energizing..👍
Love it, love it love it! Thank you magic for being so delightful😄
The Magic/Bird days. That was some awesome ball. Love ya Magic!
As a Washington football fan who endured 20 some years of Dan Snyder, having Magic as one of the new faces of the franchise is literally unreal. Thanks to Josh Harris for bringing this guy on board. He’s the definition of a winner and an all around great human being.
Doug Williams is the man Washington forever
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾yes
I lived in an apartment in Nashville for 23 years, and the only trick or treater I ever had, in the early 80's, was a black kid about 10 yrs old dressed up like Magic, with a number 32 Lakers jersey. So cute.
Magic Johnson and Jimmy made my day.
I have been a fan of this man since the 80s, Lakers were my team, so glad he's still on shows like this, he's been retired for 27 years and still considered the best Point Guard
Can't get enuff of MJ’s laugh!❤
I hope you realize using these initials there's only one MJ😅 (in basketball then😃)
He's literally the first person to get AIDS, and be like, "I'm gonna beat that!". And did. And due primarily to him transformed the disease from an imminent death sentence, to something you can manage and live with. A true hero.
He doesn't have AIDS. He has HIV.
He hasn't progressed to AIDS that is the late stage of disease w/ CD4+ count < 200 and/or opportunistic infection w/ an AIDS-defining illness. He announced in 1991 that he contracted HIV from unprotected (heterosexual) sex. His virus level is virtually undetectable as he is on the HAART regimen; only AZT (zidovudine) was available when he was 1st diagnosed - the triple therapy regimen was approved 5-years later. He is not "cured" and remains on treatment.
He never had AIDS.
His money cured him. South Park said so. lol @@meatgravylard
Kinda helps when you have money for the best treatment in the world. If he was being treated at the free family clinic, you think he'd still be around?
Band Playing Mr Magic is a nice touch...
Magic Johnson is an epitome of humility. God bless Magic ❤
I love Magic's laugh! He was so tickled when he saw that coat!!😂❤
He is very charismatic , charming , and very personal. He is always in such a good mood , outlook , his laugh is so contagious. Great to see him on Kimmel's show. ps The tres Amigos with the coats lol.
When he smiles, the whole world smile. Magic
Magic's interviews are always stellar
Magic had eyes behind his head, he had eyes all around him. A great show before turning in do the night. Much love 💕 to both Magic, Jimmy, and the coats
Man
Magic looks like he is still able to play on high level NBA..
Still miss 80s 90s NBA
The Best basketball years
I love the way he laughs. Brings joy to my bad day.
The aura of Magic is pure light, just a genuinely good guy. very rare thing
One of the kindest men I have ever met! Magic, you are Magic! Mona loved you ❤️
This was a classic interview! I pray everyone finds that Magic kind of joy in life!
How can you not love this guy!!
I was a huge Lakers fan back in the Magic J days. Even back then I always enjoyed watching him play with such intensity, but at times sure joy. He enjoyed playing at that level. I haven't seen many players do likewise. His sense of humor is GOAT.
This made my day. Thank you Magic, Jimmy and the rest of the show peoples!
Magic Johnson has a grandfather's laugh, beautiful. 😊
Man I love seeing him reunited with his coat that was awesome Jimmy
You just have to love Magic! Absolutely deserved his wealth. God bless him and his family❤🙏🍀
Love this!! Pure joy! May God continue to bless Magic! A great man!
The greatest point guard ever. The greatest nickname ever. A humble great human being.
I love magic he is so friendly and he makes it easy to talk to him
What I would like to se is him in his office on the phone or in person when he gets heated up on a business deal
Una Estrella la Verdad se ve muy bien y se ve que es una Persona muy Amable que sigan los Exitos y que le ponga a su nuevo equipo de NFL Washington Magic😉
His laughter is great! He just radiates happiness! We need to hear more laughter these days.
Very contagious laughter
The man is just the definition of all you wanna be and the way he make it so cool about it is just out of this world. Huge respect that a billionaire can do that so comfortably. Much love magic!
Cleto and the Cletones played Mr. Magic by Grover Washington Jr. So cool! Thank you!
Think about what this man has accomplished in the last 32 years since announcing that he had the, at the time, death sentence of HIV. That forced him to choose a new path and that path made him a billionaire. Props.
He’s a joyful guy
the legendary Magic Johnson was very impressive during his prime playing basketball and presently is a successful entrepreneur
He has a contagious laugh 😂😂🤣🤣
Magic: The happiest billionaire on the planet, laughing all the way to the bank😂
😂😂😂
This made my day, Magic is just pure joy. Thanks for posting.
Geez, MJ looks as young as ever. And that beautiful smile. Love him!
Can’t get enough of Michael Jackson’s stories❤
His pure poker face shade to Curry was old school class.
I like that magic still knew he still is and was the greatest point guard of all time
Now that last part with the fur coats is genuinely funny!! I am dying laughing over here!!! 😂😅😂
Probably the most charming and magnetic billionaire ever... My father was a Bird and Celtics fan from the 80's. The first NBA game I've ever watched was a Celtics game. He used to have our relatives send recorded Celtics games in VHS from the US to our country. I've grown to appreciate Magic because of his rivalry and friendship with Bird. Magic is probably one of the most charismatic African-American celebrities in my generation.
Sunshine in a suit. A big personality.
SF Bay Area and Golden State fan here. Magic is the best point guard ever.
I love magic, he's my first & forever NBA player fav.. He's really bless coz he's a good guy. I love watching him, a real person.I laughed from the start & up to the end of this show. 😂
Magic Johnson spirit is infectious!!!
That was nice.. Magic, Jimmy and Guillermo in Wookie costumes.. 😂
One of the greatest laughfests. I dare you not to smile. I dare you 😂
Magic Johnson has one of the best spirits a human being could have. I'm happy for him and his success
Omg, his laughing makes you laugh so hard 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
All three in those coats, too cute ❤😂
The coats!!!! I hollered laughing!!!!❤😂❤😂 I have a *few* of those still!!🙈🙈
Is there any man happier than Marvin Magic Johnson.
The Laughter is amazing....
The man is just a pure bundle of joy, lifts me up with the laughter alone
I say it all the time, you just can't be in a bad mood when you're around this man. I've met him once at a Starbucks in West Hollywood and he actually took a few minutes to chop it up. It blew my mind that a legend like him, probably on his way to a meeting where hundreds of millions are at stake and he just popped in for a coffee, would take the time to ask a couple of nobodys how WE were doing. He deserves all of his success and then some.
I laughed so loud when Guillermo rolled out in his little version! These guys are priceless! ❤
The wookie of the year 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Before I met Cookie"...SURE YA RIIIIGHT MAGIC🧏🏾♂️😏😂😂😂
Yeah, that man got more action "during cookie" than any guy could dream of.
Magic is such a nice dude!
Following MJ on tour is and was always my dream
The laughter though, very contiguous
This was an amazing conversation!
Love when Magic visits. Hope to meet him one day. Seems like a great person to be around.
