That is so cool. I remember hearing that he has wanted to meet Magic Johnson way back when he was on American Idol. The look on his face is priceless. :)

Thanks B. That is so awesome. The smile on his face, I just love it. And boy, Elliott looked so nice all dressed up. It was cool that JD invited him.

Good times!

ETA: Off topic, can't wait for the Palominos CD, love those guys.

First, thanks a million for letting us know about E meeting one of HIS Idols.

Secondly, LORD HAVE MERCY! Here, I thought I towered over Elliott, Magic Johnson is a giant!! Those pics are so sweet tho. Elliott has that magic look of a child in his eyes. What a gift to experience. Big kudos to J.D. for inviting E & allowing this special meeting to take place.

The first thing I thought of when I looked at the first picture - Elliott has the same look on his face that I had on my face when I met Elliott. It's priceless.

How wonderful for Elliott! Thanks, Brandon for letting us know!

georgiafan1 - December 10, 2008 06:33 PM (GMT)
Thanks Brandon. Elliott looks very happy in the pictures. It's great that another of Elliott's dreams came true. Trying out for AI was one of the best things that Elliott did for himself. We have all benefited from that decision.

Great find Blossom, thanks. :toocute:

ohioguy45780 - December 10, 2008 10:47 PM (GMT)
great pics; glad he got to meet one of his faves -- Johnson has been an inspiration for those suffering, and surviving, the scourge of HIV.

too bad they were supporting a pinko left-wing organization like the ACLU....
:-)

*(yes, that is snark, people)*

Aw omg. Elliott loooks sooo short compared to Magic Johnson! So adorable. What great awesome pictures.

I Love Elliott - December 11, 2008 02:41 AM (GMT)
When looking at the youtube vid showing JD and Magic....

JD and Elliott must be about the same height.
