At first glance it appears Jimmy Kimmel and his wife Molly McNearney have been enjoying some fun in the sun while on vacation in Spain.
But in reality the new social media photo posted by the talk show host on his Instagram page are actually photoshopped to make it look like he joined the LA Lakers legend and friends.
'¡Buenos Días from Ibiza! #MagicSummer,' Kimmel, 56, captioned the latest photo of himself seemingly standing next to Johnson and his wife Cookie Johnson on a boat.
To help make things for authentic, Kimmel is pictured wearing a t-shirt with a photoshopped image of himself and the Lakers NBA icon riding on a jet ski together.
The original photo, which was posted on Johnson's Instagram, showed the happy couple cruising along the water dressed in their summer white ensembles without any signs of Kimmel.
The original photo can be found on the five-time NBA champion's personal Instagram page.
'Today Cookie and I enjoyed a beautiful day in Ibiza, Spain. We had a wonderful lunch at Juan Y Andrea Formentera with our friends John and Vicki Palmer, Sam and LaTanya Jackson, and Cedric the Entertainer and his wife Lorna. I encourage everyone to have lunch right on the beach at Juan Y Andrea,' Magic, 56, gushed of their afternoon in Spain.
He concluded by revealing, 'We ate the catch of the day, fresh sea bass and lobster… So delicious!'
While many people would likely stare are the gorgeous backdrop of their holiday in the sun, Kimmel offered up some thanks to the couple in the comment's section.
'Thank you for leaving so much space for me on the left side of the photo,' the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host wrote, in a hint that more antics were to follow.
Two days earlier, the Johnsons documented the beginning of their vacation by sharing a photo of themselves walking alongside a few of their great friends.
'We are officially on vacation!! Hanging out with our great friends John and Vicki Palmer and Sam and LaTanya Jackson at Boca Grande in Barcelona, Spain! The food was *chef’s kiss*,' the Magic Man wrote in the caption.

That same photo showing showing the group of six became a group of eight for Kimmel's post, after he photoshopped images of himself and his wife Molly McNearney into the mix.
The Kimmels are seen on the left side with the host standing with his arms around his wife's waist, which in reality is another photoshop.
'Another #MagicSummer begins!' Kimmel shared in the caption of the first photo from their holiday in Spain.
The post garnered a response from Jackson, who joked about Kimmel not chipping in on travel expenses.
'@jimmykimmel still got Alligator Arms when the check comes!!' the Pulp Fiction star, 75, wrote under the altered image.
This looks to only be the beginning of both Magic's vacation with his wife and friends and Kimmel's latest skit.
The couple, who have been married for more than 33 years, have been known through the years for taking luxurious vacations each summer.
