The actress is the lead actress in Tyler Perry's latest drama, "Divorce in the Black," which follows a woman as she tries to escape a violent partner. The trailer was released Thursday -- and you see Meagan's character break down in tears as she reflects on her toxic marriage.

Meagan also showed up for a premiere of her new flick Thursday in L.A. ... and interestingly, she showed up by herself, without Jonathan. Of course, Meagan's been dating JM for the last year ... standing by the ex-Marvel star amid his assault trial in NYC.

On those bad days you feel weak, tired and you have to give in to your body resting. But on the good days, when you feel stronger, you want to make the most of feeling well."

The Kansas City Chiefs' new diamond-clad Super Bowl ring is one of the biggest and gaudiest in the history of the NFL ... but unfortunately for the team, it also has a glaring error on it.

The mistake is on the inside band of the ring, where in order to celebrate the path that Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce took to earn their third championship in the last five years, K.C. officials had each of their postseason victories inscribed.

Their wins over the Dolphins, Bills, Ravens and then the 49ers were all accurately portrayed. The problem, however, was next to Miami's AFC playoff seeding number.

The Kardashians got hit by a local graffiti tagger in L.A. -- or at least their billboard did ... which got spray painted with a pretty nasty message, which has already been obscured.

Khloe Kardashian works out like a champion in the gym -- and ditto for her daughter ... who crashed a recent session and played follow the leader with Mama Bear.

The reality star dropped an IG clip Thursday showing her personal trainer, Don Brooks, pushing her through an intense workout -- which she documented on video ... and which looks like it's a straight-up calorie burner, 'cause Khloe was being put through the wringer.

A new indictment alleges 58-year-old Mark Adams Prieto -- who's white -- hatched his plan to gun down Black people and other minorities at a hip hop show in Atlanta in mid-May ... and based on the dates the feds mention in their just-unsealed indictment, it lines up with BB's concert dates.
