I think both JoJo and Caila were possible choices for Ette...they were leaning toward Caila (diversity) but because of the SM uproar MF pulled a switcheroo late in the game (read his dinner/food tweets) and once JoJo was cast....perhaps she or Jordan or both asked TPTB to add Jordan to the cast for her.  I find this Very Believable.  This Story and Timeline makes sense based on Jordan's rambling Raya defense comments.

I really agree with your whole take on it.  And re the bolded, based on all the little tidbits and the weirdness of them having Jojo say she met Jordan's girlfriend before the show and they talked about him at a time way before casting was settled for the show, I kind of suspect she knew people who knew him and was aware of him in RL(maybe a crush?) and asked TPTB to reach out to him about being on.  That would also go to explaining how she was so ready to throw herself at him night one after talking for 2 minutes.  JMO.

Not a Lie...just stating a fact. JoJo said on film she met Jordan's Ex in Dallas.
