The son of basketball legend Magic Johnson also wore a pink manicure and carried a crocodile bag in a beige and brown color.
In 2015, Johnson underwent gastric sleeve surgery that caused major weight loss.
And he told E! News he keeps the weight off with lighter meals.
“For me, I just nibble constantly throughout the day instead of sitting down for big meals,” EJ explained.
And EJ trains with a trainer as well as with Pilates.
‘I do a lot of Pilates. I try to come in at least four days a week, so that’s a lot,” he said.
EJ said it’s all about “maintaining” his weight while having fun.
“Find a workout you enjoy doing,” said EJ. ‘For me it’s not even work, it’s just having fun. We dance a lot, we sweat and at the end I’m like, “Wow! I burned all these calories and I didn’t even know it because we just had a great time.”
And he’s cut out a lot of carbs and sugar, he told UsWeekly.
