Megan Good, known for her roles in movies like Friday and Tyler Perry’s drama Divorce in the Black, recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live to discuss her latest projects. The talk show host reminisced about their shared past, as they had previously worked together in the movie Three Strikes back in 2000.
Good also shared a hilarious story about her experience working with Shaquille O’Neal on a show called Cousin Skater. Initially, Shaq was set to direct an episode, but he quickly transitioned into playing pranks on set, leading the producers to remind him of his directing duties. Good and Shaq still stay in touch, and she recalled a funny encounter when Shaq “arrested” her after she accidentally drove off with the gas nozzle in her car. Luckily, Shaq let her off the hook and they both had a good laugh about it.
The conversation then shifted to Good’s upbringing in Southern California. Growing up in Canyon Country, she encountered a variety of wildlife due to the proximity to the mountains. Good jokingly compared her wildlife experiences to those of growing up in Compton, where pit bulls and roaches were the norm.
Good also mentioned her neighbor, who worked in the movie industry and had a collection of bugs, including tarantulas. Sometimes, these bugs would find their way out of her neighbor’s house, leading the neighborhood kids to create a “City of Rocks” around the unwelcome visitors until her neighbor returned home.
Living so close to the mountains, Good also had run-ins with coyotes. One particular incident involved her being chased by a dog and a coyote while walking home one night. She managed to get to safety by leaping into her car, but not before experiencing a moment of fear and anxiety.
The interview wrapped up with a discussion about Good’s latest movie, Divorce in the Black. Good plays the character Ava in this film, which follows her journey of self-discovery after her relationship ends. She emphasized the twists and turns in the movie and praised her co-star, Cory Hardrict, for making the filming process enjoyable.
Before closing the segment, Kimmel enthusiastically recommended viewers to watch Divorce in the Black, mentioning the crazy opening scene where a funeral takes an unexpected turn.
Overall, Megan Good‘s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live was filled with entertaining anecdotes and insights into her personal and professional life. Fans of Good and talk show enthusiasts will undoubtedly find this interview captivating and enjoyable.
