Magic Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson have been longtime friends, and their annual yacht vacation is the stuff of legends. However, one person who has consistently been denied an invitation is none other than popular TV host Jimmy Kimmel.
During an appearance by Jackson on his show, Kimmel confronted him, saying, “You know how long have I been asking both you and Magic if I can come on your vacation with you? It’s been six years. And each time you say yes and then Magic dodges the question. Each time summer comes and I’m sitting at home and then I eventually look at Instagram and there you guys are on the trip. I notice that I’m not on it with you.” However, this did not change things.
Magic Johnson recently took to Instagram to share pictures from his luxurious yacht vacation in Europe. With a caption that simply stated, “Having a great time over in Europe with our friends!“, Magic gave fans a glimpse into the breathtaking scenery and extravagant lifestyle that accompanies his annual getaway.
