Magic Johnson Show Apperance date: Monday, June 9, 1998 submitted by: Chip H. WH looked splendid in a full-length black-and-grey dress; she was very warm & gracious to Magic; Bobbi Kristina was in Florida w/a fever; the audience gave her a standing ovation; when asked by Magic "what is something normal you like to do that most people don't know about you?", she responded w/"I'm a good vacuumer"(she gave this reply on Keenan Ivory Wayans' show) - so Magic had one of the crew bring out a vacuum cleaner & WH good-naturedly proceeded to vacuum the area around the set!!!(to the delight of the audience). Magic handed her a cordless mike & she sang a capella something about his show(not sure if it was his theme song or what-but she sounded absolutely fantastic!!! When they came back from commercial, WH was standing beside Sheila E. & improvising "Magic" to Sheila's killer percussion. Magic next had a guest who lights various portions of his clothing on fire, & Magic & WH came onstage to watch him; at the end of the show, Magic admitted he was nervous about his 1st show until WH sang. She responded w/gratitude. All in all, one of the warmest & most delightful appearances I've ever seen of WH on any talk show(& she didn't sweat!!!-I think she does that when she's nervous, but she & Magic are old friends & she seemed completely at ease, friendly & gregarious)-oh, also, after Magic thanked her for coming on at the end, he gave her a Lakers jersey w/his name & number on it-she seemed thrilled, as did the audience. No mention of a new album(*sigh*)-but- she has been offered "The Bodyguard" part 2 & mentioned Princess Di(& seemed saddened & regretful when alluding to her passing) having been up for the sequel, but now she's considering it; she also sd "this time I get to save Kevin".
