Jonathan Majors: More Alleged Abuse Victims Cooperate With D.A.’s Office

More alleged abuse victims have come forward regarding actor Jonathan Majors according to a Wednesday (April 21) report from Variety. According to the publication, more alleged abuse victims have begun cooperating with the Manhattan District Attorney's Office. This could turn into much more than a P.R. disaster for the star, who recently played Kang in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, and is set to reprise the role in several other Marvel projects. His team maintains his innocence.

"Jonathan Majors is innocent and has not abused anyone. We have provided irrefutable evidence to the District Attorney that the charges are false. We are confident that he will be fully exonerated," said Majors’ attorney Priya Chaudhry in a statement.

Chaudhry added at the time that the "evidence includes video footage from the vehicle where this episode took place, witness testimony from the driver and others who both saw and heard the episode and most importantly, two written statements from the woman recanting these allegations."

On March 25, Majors was arrested on charges of strangulation, assault, and harassment. At the time, an NYPD spokesperson said that a 30-year-old woman had been assaulted by the actor. She reportedly "sustained minor injuries to her head and neck and was removed to an area hospital in stable condition."

Chaudhry’s husband, Andrew Bourke, is serving as Majors’ crisis publicist. Bourke released text messages between Majors and the alleged victim where the woman seemingly took the blame for the incident.

"I told them it was my fault for trying to grab your phone," the woman allegedly wrote adding that she told police "this was not an attack." She allegedly added, "Please let me know you’re okay when you get this. They assured me that you won’t be charged. They said they had to arrest you as protocol when they saw the injuries on me and they knew we had a fight. I’m so angry that they did. And I’m sorry you’re in this position. Will make sure nothing happens about this. … I love you."

A few hours later, the woman allegedly wrote, "I know you have the best team and there’s nothing to worry about I just want you to know that I’m doing all I can my end. I also said to tell the judge to know that the origin of the [911] call was to do with me collapsing and passing out and your worry as my partner due to our communication prior."

In addition to the alleged text messages between Majors and the unidentified woman, screenshots of security footage per TMZ show the woman freely using the hand that she claims Majors injured.

When the woman got back from the club, Majors reportedly found her in his apartment "unconscious and half naked on the floor of his walk-in closet."

The woman allegedly threw up in his bed and took "sleeping tablets." Majors then called 911. When paramedics arrived and asked the woman what happened to her, she repeatedly said, "I don't know."

In the case filing obtained by the outlet, Chaudhry claims body cam footage shows police interviewing the woman. Chaudhry suspects that an officer was "clearly coaching her to say that Mr. Majors grabbed her by the throat." She claims the alleged victim "never made that claim to anyone prior to the officer's direction."

Majors is expected to appear before a judge on May 8.

In March, a lot of hip-hop and R&B artists came out with hits that we've had on repeat ever since it dropped. Nicki Minaj dropped her first solo single of the year as well as Janelle Monáe on the R&B side. Several projects such as Tyler, The Creator's Call Me If You Get Lost: Estate Sale and Chlöe Bailey's solo debut were highlights of rap and R&B last month. Take a look at 10 of the best songs below:

Nicki Minaj dropped "Red Ruby Da Sleeze" last month which interpolates the 2003 hit "Never Leave You" by Lumidee. Nicki seemingly called out Megan Thee Stallion with the lines "700 on them horses when we fixin’ to leave/ But I don’t fuck with horses since Christopher Reeve" and "That .40 cal a make ’em dance like a go-go," which could be in reference to Tory Lanez allegedly shooting Megan in the foot while shouting, "Dance, bitch, dance!" "Red Ruby Da Sleeze" debuted at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Rap Songs chart.

Tyler, The Creator dropped his deluxe version of Call Me If You Get Lost titled the Estate Sale last month. Prior to the release of the album, he dropped "Dogtooth." Tyler wrote on Twitter that "Dogtooth" was one of the songs that "didn't make the cut" when finalizing his Grammy-winning LP. Tyler has three guest features on the deluxe LP with a Vince Staples-assisted "Stuntman," "Boyfriend, Girlfriend" with YG, while A$AP Rocky joins the Odd Future rapper "Wharf Talk."

Kali dropped "Area Codes" last month and had the song trending all over TikTok. In the record she raps about having a different guy providing for her in various places around the world. "Area Codes" follows the Georgia rapper's "Dangerous" freestyle she dropped in January.

Following Janelle Monáe's stunning performance in Glass Onion, the Kansas City native has gone back to music with her release of "Float." She teased the song in a video using photos from her island vacation. The song catches Monáe being open about a transitional period where a newfound confidence has emerged.

NLE Choppa and Lil Wayne linked up for "Ain't Gonna Answer" last month. The song will be featured on Choppa's next project titled Cottonwood II. This was the first time the two rappers collaborated. Cottonwood II is set to be dropped on April 14.

Doechii enlisted Kodak Black for "What It Is (Block Boy)." The song samples the 2004 "Some Cut" by Trillville feat. Cutty and interlopes TLC's 1999 classic "No Scrubs." This is Doechii's first single of 2023. Kodak has been featured in quite a few songs in 2023 including "I Remember" with Roddy Ricch, "Colors" with Trippie Redd, "King Snipe" with Gucci Mane, and "Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Remix" with King Combs.

Mello Buckzz enlisted Latto for "Boom Pt. 2." The original song titled "Boom" featured Amari Blaze, Moni Da G, and Kashh Mir. For the music video, Latto used her feature to clap back at haters while she twerked in her cheetah print thong that made headlines back in January. After a fan called her out for seemingly wearing the same pair, the Atlanta native claried that she has a drawer full of them on Instagram Live.

Metro Boomin brought out Diddy to help out with the remix to "Creepin'" which also features The Weeknd and 21 Savage. The original song is found on Metro's 2022 project titled Heroes & Villains. "Creepin'" however has remained a standalone hit from the album spent over 10 weeks on the Billboard Hot 100. A remix with Diddy makes sense since Metro sampled the Bad Boy Records founder's 2004 hit "I Don't Wanna Know" with Mario Winans featuring Enya and himself.

Lola Brooke took her 2021 hit and got Latto and City Girls' Yung Miami to hop on for a verse. The original "Dont Play With It" features Billy B. This is Lola's second single of 2023 as she also dropped "So Disrespectful."

Chlöe Bailey put Future on "Cheatback" which is off her debut solo album In Pieces. The song details Chlöe being fed up about having to deal with her boyfriend cheating so she decides to do the same thing. In Pieces also features contributions from Chris Brown and Missy Elliott.
