Magic Johnson has been all over the headlines this week as the Los Angeles Dodgers, where he’s a minority owner and unofficial public face, clinched their second straight World Series title in a wild extra-innings Game 7 win over Toronto. During the postgame celebration, Magic was quick to deliver one of his signature zingers, telling Parade magazine that critics who claimed the Dodgers’ massive payroll was “ruining baseball” were dead wrong, quipping “I guess we didn’t,” as confetti rained down and the city prepared for a dynasty-defining championship parade through Downtown LA. The significance of this cannot be overstated: it marks the first back-to-back titles for the Dodgers in franchise history, a feat not seen in MLB since the late-90s Yankees.

In the tense days before Game 6, Magic lit up social media with an emotional rallying cry, sending best wishes to “our Boys in Blue.” The Times of India reports that his words went viral, boosting spirits for the team and fans, with Johnson’s trademark optimism pegged as the extra spark that helped push the Dodgers to force a decisive Game 7. Throughout the series, outlets like FOX Sports captured Magic in the spotlight: he was seen sharing high praise for Dodgers stars like Freddie Freeman in interviews alongside legends David Ortiz, A-Rod, and Derek Jeter, and discussing the team’s history-making run with CBS LA’s Darren Haynes, leaving no doubt how personally invested he is, both behind the scenes and out in front of the cameras.

Magic’s business ventures were buzzworthy as well. According to reports from Notebook and the Los Angeles Sports & Entertainment Commission, Magic Johnson Enterprises continues to expand with real estate, hospitality, infrastructure, and tech investments, solidifying his billionaire status and influence in corporate America. On social media and in advocacy circles, Johnson’s new partnership with Cigna Healthcare to release “Magic Sounds”—therapeutic music created to aid mental health—attracted media attention. The Times of India noted his candor about using music as therapy during struggles with fame and the pressure to always win, drawing praise for destigmatizing mental health in sports.

As if his week wasn’t packed enough, Magic is slated for a major guest appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show on Friday, November 7, where he’s expected to talk business, basketball, and his personal journey in the national spotlight, adding another high-profile media stop. This week, Magic Johnson reminded the world he’s not just a sports legend and savvy businessman, but a cultural force deeply embedded in the fabric of Los Angeles and American sports history. Speculation about his next move is ongoing, but for now, Magic is firmly basking in the glow of victory, both on the field and beyond.
