There were a whole lot of fireworks going on for Earvin “Magic” Johnson and his wife Cookie on the 4th of July. The NBA superstar turned business mogul and his Mrs. took their very special married friends who included Samuel L. Johnson and Latanya Richardson, LL Cool J and Simone Smith and Holly Robinson Peete and former Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback Rodney Peete, on a cruise around the Mediterranean aboard the $150 million luxury yacht, Amadeus. Cookie was very excited when they dined at the Lemon Tree Restaurant in Capri, where she and Magic were presented a magnum of champagne with their faces on it. They also dined with Miami Heat owner Micky Carson and his wife, Madeleine. A source told me that Magic is picking up the entire trip tab for everyone that is sailing with him.
