2024 is starting with a bang. First, Katt Williams’ explosive Club Shay Shay interview, now Jonathan Majors, is looking to be the talk of X, formerly Twitter user’s timelines.
After being found guilty last month of assault and harassment of ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari and officially fumbling the Marvel Studios bag after they fired the actor on his day off, Majors sat down with ABC News Live’s Linsey Davis for an interview.
Deadline reports that the interview will be across ABC News programming, which also happens to be the sister division to Marvel Studios.
Per Deadline:
ABC News will be giving the interview a lot of play. It will premiere on Good Morning America on Monday, and will air across other network platforms including GMA3: What You Need To Know. An extended version will stream on ABC News Live’s Prime with Linsey Davis that evening, and ABC News Studios’ IMPACT x Nightline will stream a half hour special with more from the interview. That will be posted on Hulu starting on Jan. 11.
Coming off the insane sugar high that the Katt Williams “interview” with Shannon Sharpe, where he had plenty to say about prominent Black comedians and other topics, including the Majors situation, X users are salivating at the nuggets that will likely come from Majors’ sitdown with Davis.
Jonathan Majors’ Pants Are Already Stealing The Show
The jokes are already flying, specifically about the actor’s wardrobe choice, specifically his jeans, for his first interview since the trial’s verdict and losing his job as Kang The Conqueror.
We have no idea what is coming, but if it’s anywhere near the foolery that was Gayle King’s interview with disgraced crooner and sexual deviant R. Kelly, it’s going to be one hell of a day, maybe a week on social media.

The whirlwind romance between GMA3 anchors T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach will cost them their jobs.
We sure hope it was worth it because T.J. Holmes and Amy Robach will no longer sit at an anchor desk on any ABC News programs.
The once-promising careers of the two GMA3 anchors have hit a roadblock because they couldn’t keep their hands off each other, the New York Times is reporting.
Per the New York Times:
The “GMA3” anchors T.J. Holmes, and Amy Robach are negotiating their exit from ABC News, less than two months after the revelation of their romantic relationship turned into a tabloid feeding frenzy, according to two people with knowledge of the talks.
Their expected departure comes a day after the start of a mediation between representatives for the anchors and the network, the people said.
The news site also adds that Holmes and Robach were potentially going to take over Good Morning America, but their whirlwind affair ended that talk leaving ABC News in a pickle.
The Mess Between T.J. Holmes & Amy Robach Broken Down
At the time, ABC News president Kim Godwin did not comment on her two anchors bumping uglies but five days later told her employees she was pulling them off the air.
Ms. Godwin said their relationship didn’t violate company policy but added that it became an “internal and external distraction” during an editorial call.
A representative for both anchors said their relationship began a “few months” earlier and that they both left their spouses in August.
The rep also noted the anchors the couple didn’t tell anyone at ABC about their relationship “because they were waiting until they both were divorced.”
