@@DawnNa_22 Megan is trying to ease him back into the culture lol. He wanted that yt girl to be his Coretta or Michelle 🤦 👀...even tho he meant it as a metaphor, he could of said Hillary Clinton at least. She stood by her man side too 🤷♀️
You're not alone. Michael is married. It seemed like they hadn't seen each other in ages. Johnathan Majors is socially awkward. But he does seem to act strange when she gets attention. My opinion.
There was nothing disrespectful or over the top about that hug at all. Looked like two old friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time expressing their joy at seeing each other again 🤷🏾♀️
I paused this video to watch Johnathon dancing, and I got second hand embarrassment 😂🙈. I need more context to why he was dancing like he trying out for Stomp The Yard part 2 lol.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL😂 the first time i saw it i was like nah its not coming naturally, this shit is fake af, he wasn’t doing all this when he was in with the whites at marvel😂

Three kids and three baby daddies is insane. Joie has horrible judgement and she’s such a talented dancer but not doing anything but having babies by rich men. It’s crazy to me
I am so excited about you reviewing Reasonable Doubt.🤸🏾♀️ Its an excellent show on Hulu. I didn't initially watch it when ot first aired but I binge watched it right after the season ended. Can't wait for season 2.
I've never watched The Bachelor/Bachelorette but I'm familiar with Rachel because I listen to a podcast with her and Van Latham. She actually said although her and Bryan were pretty leveled she wanted a prenup, but they couldn't come to an agreement. She didn't try to force it because of them being leveled at the time. Boy did she blow up! I had no idea she was making that kind of money ($60,000 monthly 😮). These new men are not playing with these divorces. Ya boy hit the jackpot. 😅
Hey Thought Warrior👋🏾! I had no idea Rachel had ends like that either. That’s wild! I feel bad bc you can tell this divorce is taking a major toll on her. Keep your head up Big Rach!🫶🏾
@@theraeway596 Hey my fellow Thought Warrior. 👋🏽 Yes its definitely taken a toll on her but she seems strong so I'm sure Big Rach will bounce back. I'm just gonna need for her to have a prenup if she marries again. 🤭
People who say, why should she stay in a bad relationship, are weird to me. Why bring an innocent child into a bad relationship or situation?🤨 At this point, popping out babies is just a money grab and a 401K plan.🤷🏾♀️

Roxanne you gotta go find the video someone did where they did the most soulful, old school version of “Not Like Us” over the video of Jonathan Majors doing that step you’re talking about. Hilarious is an understatement! The dude was like “you a rappa, young whippa snappa, you ain’t been through nothin! Have you ever had to leave the studio cus ya Suga got low? I got gout in my pinky toe!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Joie has a TH-cam channel where she did a q&a and she said neither Bow Wow or Future give her a dime because they both take care of their kids. Chyna has also said the same thing about Rob & Tyga.
That flight attendant need to get written up or fired! It’s not her business to know what her disability is or if she needed to believe it or not. She paid for her 2 seats! What airline is this?
Cardi and offset on that sick and shut in list for me . I remember hearing her cry that last time it was triggering for so many women I for sure knew she was leaving . What the country folks say … if you like it in love it . ❤😂
I wonder how longing Rachel Lindsay has to pay that man. I'm actually not against him getting a little alimony if it's true that he closed his practice to support her career. But he has a chiropractic degree so he should be able to get on his feet quickly with a few months of alimony or a moderate lump sum.
Yea Ashanti looks ready to deliver. Im very happy for her, and pray she has a safe delivery and healthy baby. Her and Nelly are happy with each other, so Im happy for them even tho I still side eye nelly. Im on the fence about a reality show.
Yeah if my dude took me aside and asked me not to be too 'excited' when a man hugs me??? It's a wrap, he sounds mad annoying, controlling and insecure. I'm supposed to stand there like a stiff smiling zombie, sheesh.
Southwest owed her a refund for both seats now. If ahe oaid for two seats, she can donas she pleases with her seats. They should've offered her a refund when asking for dude to sit in her seat.
As far as buying 2 seats on a plane, if you are 1 person and “paid for” 2 seats the TWO seats are only your’s IF both seats are in YOUR name…… if you bought a seat in YOUR name and you bought the other seat for someone else who was in your party who is no longer flying with you…. Though you MAY HAVE paid for the other person’s seat it isn’t assigned to you so the seat is forfeited and the airline reserves the right to assign the seat to someone else. It’s NOT your seat.
Hey Rox! Have you considered reviewing or talking about dark matter on Apple TV? It was a great book for the book club and I think the show was even better
it's really good. that author did Wayward Pines. i think a Apple show that you might like is more general audience intrigue. Silo and Apple TV @@4itsrox
No Halle never once said she wasn’t pregnant lol yall were just mad that she wouldn’t I guess call yall specifically and tell you 💀🤣🤣 I still have no idea why y’all were so annoyed with that lol
I mean Meagan couldn't have controlled that Michael lifted her. I guess she could've controlled lifting her legs. Did you see Meg on Shannon Sharpe? She steady tried to bring up Jonathan's name and Shannon had no interest in pursuing it.
I thought Megan and Micheal were wrong for that hug. That was disrespectful to her man. If the show was on the other foot she wouldn’t like it. This has nothing to do with being insecure and has everything to do with respect.
i appreciate u keepin it real cus ppl kept tryna make it look we doin too much or that its jonathon fault. idc if michael and him had an hour long convo before, the hug was inappropriate. point blank. and seeing another video doesnt change that u can hug someone n then disrespect them by being too familiar with their person 2 secs later especially wen u consider how intimate the two have been before, theres tension there, and it reads as two ppl who always wanted to smash but timing was never right. its very clear ppl dnt kno the diff btw a boyfriend hug and a church hug
A second video dropped showing moments before. He dapped Jonathan up. (My husband was like yea, etiquette is you say hi to the man first) Iono aj out a big huh lol. And allegedly they had already seen eachother before the hug moment.
I think the part simple minded people forget about actors is that they are 100% comfortable with interacting closely with people platonically. Every time Nia Long and Larenz Tate get together they take photos like they are a couple. They usually have spouses that understand this as well. It’s disheartening and problematic that you still are CHOOSING to make the hug more than it was after you received the information that Jonathan was greeted FIRST. After Michael greeted them he moved on to other people.
Damn. Why people have to be simple minded for having an opinion? Sure, some people may not have an issue with it after it was disclosed that he shook Majors’ hand first. But it’s also OK that some people still think the embrace was a bit much. Why do y’all find the need to be so nasty? Seriously, just so ill mannered and uncouth
Lol. I got an opinion about Nia and Laurenz too. But since I’m simple minded I will just keep it to myself. 😄 But don’t you find it the least bit ironic you’d used Nia in your example considering where she currently lies in her own relationship?? Because I do. 😊🤔😂

Oh okay.
That’s fine. But then don’t come back on social media chastising people for having an opinion about it. She obviously cared in some way. She coulda just went on about her business.

Am I the only one that thought the hug wasn’t a big deal….both partners were there, they are good friends…
I didn't think the hug was a big deal either, it was Jonathan's facial expressions that got me !!
Men and women telling on themselves. Women are only for pleasure and never for friendship.
Not a big deal to me…

I wonder if she scanned both of her boarding passes. Maybe they thought the 2nd boarding pass didn't arrive.
I was just thinking 🤔 there is not a man in this world that I would be that excited to see 😮
