EJ Johnson<\/a><\/strong> is answering the question that keeps popping up. <\/p>\n

The 26-year-old TV personality has often faced curiosity and speculation about his sexuality and identity. In the newest episode of Just the Sip<\/em>, host and Johnson’s friend Justin Sylvester<\/a><\/strong>brought a recurring question to his attention: “Does EJ ever want to transition? Does he ever think about it? Was it a possibility?”<\/p>\n

“This one I get so much and I’m so happy you’re finally her to f–king set the record straight,” Sylvester said of the query. <\/p>\n

“I like myself the way that I am,” Johnson answered. “I’m very happy with myself and I think\u2014I always say that I think that if you feel like you’re not in the right body, then by all means get to where you want to be.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

However, that’s not the case for the star. “I don’t feel that I’m in the wrong body. I feel like this is the body I’m supposed to be in,” he told Sylvester. <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“I don’t feel the need to transition,” he added. “I’m almost 100 percent positive I won’t.”<\/p>\n

During the interview, Johnson also opened up about how he handles social media criticism, suffering the loss of a beloved friend, wanting a serious relationship after a successful “hoe phase” and when he realized his father Magic Johnson<\/strong> is more than his dad. <\/p>\n
