The Battle for Reputation: Blake Lively Takes on Justin Baldoni
A War of Words
Actress Blake Lively has launched a legal attack on her former “It Ends with Us” costar and director Justin Baldoni, accusing him of sexual harassment and a deliberate attempt to ruin her reputation. However, Baldoni’s team has quickly retaliated, labeling the allegations as a desperate attempt to salvage her own reputation.
A List of Demands
Lively’s lawsuit outlines a series of demands she made to Baldoni, allegedly due to his inappropriate behavior on set. These demands include:
- No more showing nude videos or images of women to Lively
- No more discussions about sexual conquests in front of Lively and others
- No further mentions of cast and crew’s genitalia
- No more inquiries about Lively’s weight
- No further mention of Lively’s deceased father
- No adding of sex scenes, oral sex, or on-camera climaxing outside the scope of the script Lively approved
A History of Conflict
For those who may have missed it, Lively co-starred in “It Ends with Us” alongside Baldoni, who also directed the film. After the movie’s release, conflicting allegations emerged, suggesting that the cast disliked Baldoni and that Lively was difficult to work with. Baldoni then hired Melissa Nathan, a PR expert who had previously worked with Johnny Depp during his trial against Amber Heard. Shortly after, public opinion turned against Lively.
Damning Text Messages
Lively’s lawsuit includes text messages obtained through a subpoena, which appear to show exchanges between Jennifer Abel of RWA Communications, Melissa Nathan of The Agency Group PR, and Baldoni. These messages have sparked controversy and raised questions about the parties involved.
A Legal Showdown
As the legal battle unfolds, it’s clear that neither side is backing down. While both Lively and Baldoni have made serious allegations, the truth remains to be seen. One thing is certain, however: the legal angle of this case will be a complex and intriguing beast.
