So, it looks like Megan Good and Jonathan Majors are back in the headlines, and this whole engagement thing is definitely raising some questions. After looking into it, it really feels like this might just be a PR stunt. Honestly, I kind of feel bad for Megan Good. It seems like she’s been hired to play the part of Jonathan Majors’ “PR girlfriend.” I think that’s why they announced their engagement—it’s probably a way to distract from the fact that Jonathan just settled the lawsuit his ex filed against him for defamation and assault.
What’s crazy is how willingly Megan is going along with it. What exactly is she getting out of this? What deal did she sign? Yeah, she landed that role with Tyler Perry, but honestly, I think he would’ve hired her regardless of all this drama.
For those of you saying, “Love is love,” or whatever, I get it. But this isn’t about that. It’s not that they’re faking their relationship that bothers me—it’s that they’re playing us all. They’re using the idea of black love as a cover-up for bad PR. I don’t care if they’re faking an engagement, but I do care that they think we’re dumb enough to buy into it. They announce this engagement, and then quietly settle a lawsuit behind the scenes.
Remember when I said Jonathan Majors was making a “comeback”? Remember when I said his contract was up? Well, guess what? The Hollywood Reporter confirmed it—his contract is done. But here’s the thing: his new movie, the one that’s supposed to be his big break, is being produced and distributed by Disney. This is basically a test to see if the public is ready to welcome him back. And some people are even saying it might be Oscar-worthy.
Now, after settling with his ex, Grace, who sued him in civil court, suddenly he’s engaged. Let’s see if this engagement ever leads to a wedding. I’m curious to see how it plays out.
Look, don’t get me wrong, Megan Good looked absolutely gorgeous in that gold dress when she announced her engagement. She’s stunning, no doubt. But wait—why was Tina Knowles’ ex-husband, Richard Lawson, in Megan Good’s comments talking about, “Oh my God, Mr. Lawson, stop”? She’s the same age as Bianca! Like, sir, please, take several seats.
Anyway, let’s get into it. This whole engagement seems like a cover-up. The Hollywood Reporter reported that, just months after landing his first film role following a very public trial and misdemeanor assault conviction, Jonathan Majors has settled a lawsuit with his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabari, who accused him of physical abuse. The lawyers from both sides told the court that they reached a deal, but the terms are private. However, Grace’s lawyer did say the lawsuit was “favorably settled.” So, I’m guessing she got a nice payday. Of course, Jonathan’s rep didn’t respond for comment—what could he say at this point?
Now it all makes sense. This whole engagement drama is starting to look like a distraction. I’m still wondering why Matthew Lawson is involved in this, though. Like, what’s the point? But now we know why they were doing this. The truth is slowly coming out.
Let’s think back to that footage of Megan Good on the red carpet, kissing Jonathan. If this was the first time you saw them together, you might’ve thought it was all very public and new. But remember the Hollywood Unlock Awards? That’s where Jonathan was at his career peak, and suddenly, here they are, putting on the most dramatic show ever. They were crying like he just won an Oscar, a Grammy, and a lifetime achievement award all in one. He walks up on stage, saying, “I love you,” like he was giving a speech after a huge career win. And Megan was right there, forehead-to-forehead with him, wiping away his tears.
There’s this thing that some women have, where they feel like it’s their role to “save” a man, to lift him up. It’s like a fantasy where you take a broken man and turn him into something better. And that’s exactly what Megan was doing in that moment—comforting him, making sure he was okay, as if she was the one who could make everything right. But honestly, it felt more like a performance than real emotion.
And let’s not ignore how over-the-top it all was. He’s ugly-crying, and she’s trying to hold it together, wiping away tears like this was some kind of big movie moment. And I get it—this stuff matters, right? I know I said I didn’t care, but I do care, because it feels like they’re playing games with us, especially Black women. It’s like they’re trying to shove this whole Black love thing down our throats. But why does it feel so forced? Why does it feel so performative, like something straight out of a Tyler Perry movie? Jonathan’s being accused of domestic violence, yet Megan’s there in a club dress, trying to prove she’s standing by him through it all.
What gets me is how they’re framing it. The idea is, “I saved you, so now you love me.” It’s not that he chose her first or preferred her—it’s that she was the one who “rescued” him. And that’s honestly kind of insulting. It’s this stereotype that Black women can only be loved because they “saved” Black men. Once the danger’s gone, what’s left? If this is the narrative, it feels like it’s reinforcing all the wrong ideas.
And I’m sure I’ll get some comments tomorrow, “Oh, you’re just jealous, that love is real.” But honestly, I don’t think it is. Not in my opinion. I’m not in their bedroom, but I don’t think they are either. Just saying.
Honestly, the whole thing with this Black love portrayal feels kind of insulting. It’s like they’re assuming that this is what Black people want to see. Maybe they’re aiming for the Tyler Perry crowd because this whole situation has “Tyler Perry show” written all over it. The only difference is in Tyler Perry’s shows, the light-skinned guy is always the hero, and the dark-skinned guy is the villain. Maybe that’s what they’re doing with Jonathan Majors—setting him up as the villain. But honestly, it’s all a joke at this point. I just hope Megan’s getting paid well for this. She was putting on a show, no doubt. I mean, anyone who kissed him on the lips on the red carpet—come on, this is made-for-TV drama. It’s straight out of a Tyler Perry script. But at the end of the day, I realized I’m not the target audience for this.
So, congratulations, Megan. I hope you’re making bank for dealing with all this negative press. You looked amazing, and you’re a talented actress who should already be a big star. I guess this is just part of the game to get ahead in Hollywood. Anyway, let me know what you think in the comments. And congrats to Jonathan Majors for settling with his ex—he probably should’ve done that sooner to avoid all this drama. If he had treated her with some respect or, I don’t know, not kicked her out, Megan wouldn’t be in the position of playing the girlfriend who’s here to clean up his mess. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Talk to you later. Bye.
