Megyn Kelly I’m a fan!! This was such a good interview, great research on ur part from both lawsuits and very thought-provoking questions. Can’t wait to see more of Brian’s takedown 💪🏼
Good for Megyn for fighting back, and good for Justin Baldoni for fighting back. I pray he wins. I’m sick of all the liars who think they are above everyone else.
@@cleigh113they are not even comparable and you really don't need to do all that homework I just listed to know that this is a good man who does not care about Fame and red carpet and what position he played. He was happy celebrating in the basement of his own film with his family and friends because they got the message out there. While Blake lively was changing the original character of the book making her some fancy girl who wore $10,000 shoes and went around the interviews talking about how she designed the wardrobe which is completely opposite from the actual book character. And then she paraded around on the red carpet and then ask them to write a producer's letter to recommend her as a producer which by the way she was not. At least not supposed to be
I’m no fan of Blake lively. And Justin Baldoni seems to have made his name as a male feminist, an identity that seems likely to be inconsistent with Lively’s accusations of sexual harassment and retaliation. As with any allegations, it’s wise to withhold judgment until more facts come out. Baldoni had recently received an award for his advocacy on behalf of women. Based on the complaint published in the NYT, the organization took the award back. But now, Baldoni’s lawsuit has alleged facts that raise questions about the validity of Lively’s complaint. There’s much more to come. Let’s just see.
@@cleigh113. Research. And following stories such as this. Please do lots of research and come to the conclusion that Blake Lively has been a BULLY in Hollywood for years and is just now getting hers - Karma is a Bitch!
@@SummerLuvr7 I often wonder how much Hugh had to know about what was going on...him and Reynolds are close friends and he was with them at both premiers for Deadpool and It Ends with Us... really makes you wonder. He had to have known all those scenes they shot in Deadpool with Nicepool were directly aimed at Baldoni. Can only hope Baldoni's lawyers expose everyone because Bryan sounds like he knows about a lot of people who were complicit.
@@GSP-76 indeed! I’m sure they all got a good chuckle about Justin Baldoni on Wolverine and Deadpool. Also, how much did Ryan Reynolds know about Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster? 2 Cheaters, lying to their spouses, lying to their kids. I was a huge Hugh Jackman fan until this deceitful behavior. I’ll bet Ryan and Blake were right there egging him on in his pursuit of an affair. After all, isn’t that how Ryan & Blake got together? Or, did he cheat when he was with Alanis Morrissette? Or is it all his women? I can’t wait for the old adage of “if they do it with you, they’ll do it to you” comes back into everyone’s life and they all screw each others over since that’s how they roll. I really hope Justin Baldoni win$$ big in court.
I've worked in the entertainment industry on the business side in LA years ago. It is highly unlikely that Justin Baldoni or his team instituted a smear campaign against Blake Lively. No producer, director, or studio would do anything like this after 4 years of working on a film as it would destroy the success and, most importantly, the profits of the movie. He is a business owner and has investors and a major studio to not only pay back, but that also expect massive profits from this movie. Do people actually believe that Baldoni and his team would target the LEAD actress in his own film and do a smear campaign against them during the promotion, marketing, and release of the movie or while it was in theaters and risk losing millions of profits after 4 years of working on this movie???? If anything, a planned smear campaign would harm Baldoni's film and his movie at the box office. The most a producer or director would do is never work with that person again or just fire them early on. But to actively do it during marketing and release of the film is highly unlikely to happen, or at least that Baldoni would actually authorize a pr team to do this. Baldoni is the business owner of his own studio and a director, and the entertainment industry is a for-profit business. He's not going to destroy his own company like this. If he did (which I don't believe he did), he would be insane or a stupid businessman.
If you wanted to preempt her position, then you would do precisely what she accuses him of. I think a lot of facts are missing. We should all be holding our ammo.
@@jenrae-w7w he is the lawyer of the defendant of course he will say what he said. Duh. Im waiting for an interview with the other side if it’s possible. Might not, pending a court case.
Blake lively is the biggest bully Hollywoods had in yrs. The way she berated that poor lady just trying to interview her was cookoo. The woman simply gave her congrats on her pregnancy, which lively had already announced publicly btw. Blake shamed every question she asked from that point. I guess she wants to live in a world where motherhood isn't acknowledged or celebrated.
Poor Justin shunned by the cast and having to go to the premiere separately alone. Seeing that picture of him standing alone on the red carpet makes me sad. It's bullying.
Is it the directors/casting director,/producers that chooses the cast for the film? Then the actors of it ends with us are either ungrateful or deeply manipulated by Blake Lively.
@@annielakezurc8553 Who knows, but BL has lost respect due to the way she has treated people in interviews, so it's not a stretch that she may have skewed how people view JB in the snarky and rude way she's done to others in interviews especially since she seems to have been throwing her weight around. Tsk tsk...and up and coming people in "the industry" more than likely will forego their own integrity and back the power person, easy when they might not know what all really happened (or they just quietly have chosen to look the other way).
Baldonie allowed that because he knows he is guilty of inappropriate behavior, so he let Blake take control to make amends. His company's backer is a major league billionaire, no less powerful than Blake Lively
I can't believe Blake says that she was shown pornography when it fact it was a home birth for a scene they wanted to do for the movie. How can anyone believe anything she says?
it’s not appropriate to show naked photos of your wife at work, even if it’s a birthing photo. TMI….I don’t care if they are doing a movie involving a birth. If she did not agree to nudity within her contract, baldoni and the other producer should not have been pressuring her to do a nude birth scene in the movie. That’s not normal. I’ve had 2 kids and I can assure you, I was not completely nude. I would NOT have wanted to see a naked Blake lively on film anyhow! The fact that Baldoni hired his friend to be the OBGYN doctor is also disturbing and not professional. I hope Meghan tells their side too. From what I’ve heard based on the California EEOC complaint, assuming it’s all true, baldoni sounds like a creep that’s trying to play victim. In her complaint she also references other women on set so my gut feeling is that there may be other female witnesses who can support these claims. While I agree that Blake comes off as a total mean girl b*tch, that doesn’t mean she should have to tolerate sexual harassment in the workplace. We all know Hollywood is sick and has a history of abusing women. If Baldoni is guilty, he deserves to go down for his sins.
@sflores97 I guess the bottom line is we don't know all the facts..maybe Blake didn't object to seeing the home birth video at the time and is suddenly making this claim now just to disparage Justin and the others she's suing. Even though she is horrendous to people as we've seen in several interviews, you're right she doesn't deserve sexual harrassment. It's just hard to believe her when we've seen how badly she treats people. She says Justin sexually harrassed her when there is literally a video out there with her groping Justin and showing him how she wants him to grab her and he looks very uncomfortable. She didn't treat that one interviewer well when all she did was congratulate her on her pregnancy and refused to apologize to her when it was made public but instead doubled down by insinuating that the interviewer collaborated with Justin to harm her image in her lawsuit, which wasn't true. I pray the truth comes out and justice is done 🙏
@sflores97 she also said Justin walked in on her naked while she was breastfeeding when now there is a text showing that she invited Justin to her trailer while she was breastfeeding
Blake canceled herself when the video resurfaced and went viral from a press junket she did with Parker Posey years ago. Blake (and Parker) were so incredibly rude and mean to the sweet low key interviewer, it was SO revealing and this big bully of a girl Blake will never truly be seen the same again. She kind of reminds me of Amber (Johnny Depps ex).
EXACTLY 💯 I was going to say the same. Clearly this was a narcissist/Empathic relationship. (Alot like Amber and Johnny) Justin being the empathic one. She started scoring points and feeding herself almost immediately off her being in a higher power position. He immediately did everything he could to playcate her. It makes me wonder what brought him to make this film, life lessons? Past experience? It is not just adults affected by DV. His empathic nature may be a result and one Blake took advantage of. What also struck me was her vision was about empowering women all well and good but not realistic in real world DV, his was about showing the real time realities. Having been in a DV situation myself it can be a slow spiral. Like a frog in a slow boil. I had always said If something happened like that to me I would be gone, not realizing slowly over years how I was relinquishing control losing my autonomy. I was the empath, the one not wanting to make waves. How doing so could destroy everything. I recognized it with Johnny and the same with Justin.
She could plainly see that Justin is a really nice guy. To her, that means weak and her nature is to play power games for no other reason than to exert power. What a sad and sorry soul.
Believe me, Ryan Reynolds was just as shocked as everyone else when Blake announced he wrote a scene in the movie. She was basically saying, if I'm going down, you're coming with me. I know their dynamic. That's the level to which she manipulates. When threatening the children doesn't work to keep him compliant, she just says crazy things on stage or on air to test the limits of his willingness to stick his neck out. You want to know who planted the Blake Lively stories? This woman was the bane of my existence from the fall of 2020 to 2024. My sheer willpower is the culprit. More context: Ryan asserted that Blake wrote parts of Deadpool when I'm not sure she can write an essay. He lied about her writing credits to try to cater to her. So she didn't really have to get very inventive to come up with her lie. Typical. I hope you are looking into her IMDB as well. Her only directing experience was essentially a low-budget commercial with Taylor Swift's name on it. The idea that she would be hijacking the jobs of career editors and essentially making herself director of a feature length film that qualified people poured their creative souls into is disgusting to me.
I don't believe you. Ryan is an AH too. He is not a victim. He is part of it. Check what he did on the Deadpool set. Both of them are entitled asshats.
She directed a Taylor Swift music video, which was actually great, but aylor Swift is the visionary behind those...many directors of her videos have said that Taylor provides storyboards and has exceptional concepts to her music video so I give all credit to Taylor. That being said, while I like Taylor, it doesn't mean that I have to like Blake and in fact I can't stand Blake.
I've heard for a long time that Lively was a pain in the ass. I mentioned this on another you-tube channel and was attacked by Blake Lively sycophants. I'm glad to know that the truth will finally come out. Thanks for posting!
She has classic Narcissistic personality disorder. She expects men to fall in love with her and when they don't she is wounded. These sociopaths then are out to destroy them in the worst way. It's Amber Heard part 2. I hope Justin and his colleagues get justice. I think people will see right through this.
Sounds exactly like her bestie Taylor Swift. Then writes bad stuff about her exes, she's always the victim. The worst part is her 15 yr old gazillion fans would defend her to death. People need to wake up about the people they are putting on the pedestal.
Are you a psychiatrist who has interviewed and observed Lively to make that diagnosis? If so you are breaking client-doctor confidentiality. If not, you are liable for defamation. While I don’t agree with Lively’s behaviour, you can’t go around labeling people narcissists or sociopaths. Most people don’t actually know exactly these traits - you are observing what you think is a self centered and entitled person, but clinical labels beyond that are out of your scope of knowledge and you’re settling into dangerous territory of defamation.
Team Justin❤ Blake is not a normal girl that has to endure this behavior from anyone. If that was the case she should have stop filming and sue them or take legal action at that point.
She probably just couldn’t handle the aggressive parts of the film and convinced herself that she was assaulted. She is not an A lister actress by any means. She didn’t even have the decency to read the book beforehand and seriously thought it was a regular rom com.
She basically wanted to put the blame on someone else for all her wrongdoings. Congrats Blake for tarnishing your career on your own. She is the epitome of someone who should never represent women period! I’m embarrassed for her!
Listening to Mr. Freedman, it becomes clear in hindsight that Lively was focused on promoting her husband’s movie, her hair care products, beer, and other ventures rather than the film itself. This appears to have been deliberately orchestrated by her and her husband, who used their perceived power to bully Baldoni in the process. Their actions seem calculated and unfair. I hope Ryan and Blake are held accountable. It’s astonishing how insufferable some individuals can be.
Exactly, and people saw it and became outraged. If she didn't get so much backlash, none of this would be happening. The stress she endured was from the backlash that people were calling her out.
@ exactly. And now she wants to punish Baldoni. What boggles my brain is why she got her husband on board to bully this guy. These were HR matters. I don’t take my husband to my job to fight my battles.
I like Ryan, I think she runs his Show too! She convinced him of something different all together I bet! I bet she had feelings for Justin and they weren’t reciprocated and she is a woman scorned! Childish but this is her nature! She also runs the Show around her Mom and Dad and siblings too I just bet!
The author was equally disappointing too, she turned on Justin at the drop of a dime, when he took such care to honour her words on screen.. she could have stayed neutral.. but neutral wouldn't have gotten her into hollywood parties
Totally agree! It really shows her lack of character. She’s made a comment about how honest Blake is. Well where’s her comment now since Blake’s been exposed for the fake narrative she put out into the world? Spineless
It gives a sense of "You reject me? I'll destroy you!" Blake may have made a move on Justin, and he said no thanks. It gives me creepy 'Gone Girl' vibes.
Read how BL treated Leighton Meester on Gossip Girls....bullied her and took overcwardrobe, because she didwant Meester to dress better or cuter on set. BL's dad got Blake that roll
Her parents did a disservice to her by handing everything over with no effort. She didn’t have to try and get anything on her own. No real accomplishments from beginning to end.
Men should not be allowed in women's spaces and women should not be allowed in men's spaces. We can't have a double standard that's what the left does😊
Before I ever heard of this film my daughter who is 30 had said she was unimpressed with both Blake and Ryan because she felt they were snobs and inauthentic. All they care about is their own success and their personal wealth. I had to agree that what I have seen seems to support this take.
I think you’re right. What I see is social awkwardness far more than “meanness.” Also, a lot of woman don’t want to discuss pregnancies, & you can see she doesn’t like being asked about it in interviews. Perhaps she used a surrogate, or had IVF or other struggles but it was very clear the topic makes her uncomfortable
There is nothing wrong with planning to push the truth for someone who is bullying you with no grounds in that world! It’s not a punishment, it’s a way to ensure the truth is revealed!
Wow. I thought that the cast chose to do press with her. Apparently, she set the rules, and Sony allowed it and supported it. Crazy. Imagine if it was reversed and a male actor forced a woman director to sit in the basement of their own movie premiere. She is the person in a position of power in this scenario. She has more money, power, and influence, and she used it.
Justin Baldoni was never in a position of power. How did he harass Blake Lively? It seems as if she harassed JB. I don't understand why she is so "important."
In case no one is aware Brian Freedman was her lawyer during her firing at NBC and was able to win her case so that she could get paid in full to the agreement when she was hired. He, too, represented Gabrielle Union and walked away with an undisclosed settlement when she accused AGT. He may well understand the long battle ahead but quite clever how to play where they are going to get large settlements from Blake/Ryan, Sony and NYT.
YAY !!! You bought back Billy Bush !!! Thank God !! He did not deserve to be canceled !! Hot Mics!! Brilliant idea !! Congratulations Billy Bush. Good luck with your new endeavor.
Agreed. I remember when all that happened and wondering what he did wrong. He was listening to someone do locker room talk. They hated Trump so bad that he took the shrapnel from that conversation. Remember how Guthrie interviewed Trump when he ran the second time. I’ve never watched NBC since that day. Cancelled!
So she had the power to take over his entire movie, but let him get away with sexually harassing her on set and did nothing until after. She is full of crap
This greedy couple flatters the powerful while trampling on powerless creators like Baldoni, stealing his talent, and even attempting to completely destroy him. How repulsive and wicked this is!
Blake is a brat. Just talk to some of the actors she has worked with on TV and in movies. They do not like her at all. She and Ryan Reynolds are liars and cheaters. Justin, on the other hand, is well loved by his coworkers, because he has not let Hollyweird corrupt him.
Blake was the one with the power, calling all the shots. There was no sexual harassment. She just wants to own the rights to the second film. Just like how her husband hijacked Dead Pool from the original director.
We, the exhausted majority have become tired of Hollywood elites. This won't end the way she thinks it will. We're sick and tired of these self-entitled scumbags.
I'll listen to both sides before I make an opinion but it seems like Blake's ego has gotten the best of her and she'll be responsible for her own downfall.
Narcissists accuse others of exactly what they, themselves, are doing. I hope Johhny Depp helps support Justin through this. The parallels between their situations are striking.
Grateful for the interview with Billy Bush. Had no idea of his innocence in the 2016 awful smear of President Trump from that locker room taping. My impression from angry online discussions at the time was that the Bush family hated Trump so much they asked Billy to release that tape. I hope he keeps on laying out the truth on his new show about what actually happened. He deserves to have his name cleared. Wishing him great success on his new show.
To add context to the rudeness that Blake showed towards the journalist asking about the "clothes" in her film with Parker Posey - she was referring to the period costumes worn, but I guess as English is her second language she used the word "clothes". AND that prompted Ms Lively to use a misogynist angle to the journalist's question and wonder out loud if men would be asked about the clothes. This was a great interview - can't wait to hear what is revealed in a court case. I hope that Justin Baldoni receives justice and fair play.
I am team Justin….something is just off with this Blake character…I was looking at her work history, and wasn’t surprised. Thank you lawyer for fighting for Justin
I really hope Justin isn't persuaded to settle. I hope it takes it all the way with those two. Blake Lively is truly a piece of work! Some people need to be re-raised. It seems the elementary lessons of being kind and learning to live peacefully with others needs to be retaught to some. How does one even sleep at night treating others this way?
Baldoni is afraid of Blake Lively. He could have lost everything - he would never have behaved in an inappropriate way. He was living his dream - until he met Blake Lively who turned his little dream into a nightmare. I am very certain of that. That's also what people share about him that know him personally. He is not that kind of person.
What's "really" going on with Blake is that Colleen Hoover is the next Nicholas Sparks author. Everyone in the book world knows it. And there is a looong list of her books that will be adapted. Ryan saw the opportunity and they used their billionaire profile to get in a power position for the franchise... just. like. deadpool.
I have nothing for Colleen Hoover after she immediately backed Blake. I'll never read another book of hers. She stood up for a woman who made a mockery of the basis of her book. She sold out all victims in that moment.
I think that comment about 1:49:14 the “bump,” was Blake Lively slamming the interviewer for making a comment about HER bump. Perhaps the original “congratulations” could have been phrased as “pregnancy” rather than “bump.” But Lively’s response was very aggressive and rude. Not at all appropriate to the congratulations offered by the interviewer, which was done in good faith. Clearly the interviewer did NOT have a bump. That was so rude. And, the whole wardrobe response was also out of line! She seemed almost to be looking for a fight.
Yes, as a DVS, I was completely taken aback when my 19 year old son and I went to watch the movie. We both teared up several times. I was not prepared for it to be so heavy, due to watching Blake tell the video audience to “Grab your friends, and your florals!”.
What people don't notice is this. Yes Blake can act. However she's not a great actress. She plays the same part all over the place. In different forms but still technically the same character. She's never been anything worth any real depth. If she was shorter period, she wouldn't get more then half of these roles. She only gets stuff because of her looks. I'm a victim of domestic violence of a fiancé and sexual assault from him and rape from another. If I was ever assaulted by a coworker if married, I'm not sure I would have told him. Let's say I did, most men don't wait to report it, they go and handle it themselves. I can go on. This sounds like Blake is manipulating everything and everyone, including her husband. Or he's completely aware of her crap she pulls
I have been fortunate to have spent 30 years of my working career outside of the United States and I say this because living in different countries people would tell me how distorted the US main stream media was by twisting the truth or telling complete lies. And the longer that I lived and worked in these countries the more I begin to see through the US news as sheer propaganda, especially through the various wars in Iraq, Afghanistan , Ukraine.. I pray the people like you will shine the light on the truth for future generations.
I’m a micro influencer. 2 years ago on a national women’s day campaign, we were asked to pick a woman we looked up to by a particular brand. I picked Megyn. I gave my reasons. My Examples were “she is standing up for women” aka the trans movement. No men in our bathrooms, sports jails etc. at that time very few people were saying out loud trans women are not women. They stopped sending me PR. I can’t say for sure this is the reason but I believe it was. I won’t say the brands name. But I’m so happy to see more people are speaking up on that topic. Just wanted to drop this if Megyn sees this :) big fan!
Ryan used his fame and power to bully his way through getting the Deadpool franchise and Blake is trying to do the same… also, we are not talking enough about the author of the books who also betrayed Justin and is also problematic in her own way
Yes! I'll never read another Colleen Hoover book. She slapped all victims in the face with this movie and her backing of Blake. When it's so obviously fabricated. Any fabricated sexual attack hurts true victims more and more.
Oh my gosh, yes! You know she woukd research this thing within an inch of its life. She always has the best takes. Then watching her and Megyn talk about it is the icing on the cake.
From day one I always was, still am, and unless an earth shattering truth comes out to support Blake I will always be Team Justin! Just the fact that she is bringing this law suit like she is shows how disgusting she is!!!xoxoxo
I was disgusted by Blake the minute I heard her say “grab your best friend and wear your florals”…I would have thought it was a rom com and then would have been severely triggered while watching the movie if I went to see it…which I didn’t and now have no desire to because of how Blake has put such a negative imprint on this movie. I love that Justin wanted to do this movie to say that victims and survivors are seen and heard! All Blake wanted to do is promote her hair care which I’ve seen reviews and they say it’s a horrible product as well as her alcohol products!!!xoxoxo
Megan Kelly…. you ROCK. You have more guts honesty and clout than any and all of the mainstream media put together. You stood firm, you fought, and you won. Today you speak, and the world listens. Regards from Australia 😊as for Blake Lively issue, after hearing both sides, neither Blake nor Ryan Reynolds deserve to work in Hollywood ever again (one can only hope).
The female reporter, Kjersti Flaa, asked Blake and Posey about the clothing in the movie because it is a period movie so I don't understand Blake's snotty response. Blake and Posey acted like 2 mean girls.
@@MarySummers-l5e I saw KF in an interview after her video about these 2 bullies went viral. She said she can't have children so Blake's comment really hurt her. Hollywood is so ugh.
I am not a blake fan but to be fair she would not know that Kjersti Flaa can't have children. Other thing is she congratulated her on her bump some people can be offended like Blake cos in her mind it means she is fat perhaps (Kjersti being Norwegian did not mean it in an offensive way just a language difference) just my opinion
@@priscillagovender5368 I understand that Blake wound't know about KF but it was a jerk thing to say regardless. It was obvious that Blake was pregnant and I have yet to hear that being an offensive way to congratulate a woman on her pregnancy. Baby bump sounds pretty darn cute.
Thank you for explaining all of this in a we can all understand. Appreciate being clued into the legal process and details, and I’m looking forward to seeing how everything unfolds. As a domestic abuse survivor, after hearing the facts so far, I’m 💯 on Team Justin and wish his team the best.
I'm wondering if Justin would be considered a person with disabilities under the Americans for Disabilities Act because I read online that he has herniated discs in his back, meniscus and cartilage issues in both knees, and arthritis in one shoulder. If so, did Ryan Reynolds violate Justin's right to find out if Blake was within a weight limit that would be safe for him to pick up by berating and humiliating him in the presence of other movie officials and characterizing Justin's concern to avoid injuring himself further as "fat-shaming" Blake Lively? Was this a violation of Justin's civil rights by not allowing him a reasonable accommodation for his medical issues? Apparently, Blake Lively became angry when Justin was trying to figure out if he could safely lift her which resulted in any lift scenes being cut from the movie. I still wonder, though, if Ryan went too far when he berated and humiliated Justin in public in association with his medical issues and seemingly minimized these issues as well.
I do not know who is right or wrong in this situation… I guess we’ll wait for discovery to find out! However, the interview that Blake Lively sat with that young reporter was so embarrassing for her! She was so condescending-especially that question about the fashion and her responding by ignoring the reporter and speaking solely to her costar. That interview alone revealed what a colossal bully she is…her acting was mediocre at best but now her entire persona has been tainted. I’m glad that she and Ryan Reynolds are named in the lawsuit!
I wonder how all this resentment started. To make up such awful lies for attention and to turn around bad publicity over a below par movie is unbelievable. Blake and Ryan are very silly and made themselves look really bad. I will never be able to look at them the same way after this and I am sure I am not the only one.
I think it all began with her not reading the book the movie was based on. Justin’s lawyer mentioned it in the interview. I can see how the creative team and Blake would not see eye to eye if she hadn’t read the book and everyone else had. I’m sure that was humbling for her and instead of embracing humility she stood her ground. But I’m just speculating.
Sounds to me she was planning on doing this from the beggining to have the rights of the movie off him. Like when she refused to meet the intimacy coordinator and that forced him to see that person alone and then rely the IC's recomendations back to her, forcing him to have sexual convos with her . Also writting that 17 steps list knwing none of that was happening, just so she could have some "evidence" for a future lawsuit
Blake Imagine was tarnished after the video of her movie interview came out, when she was pregnant and she was rude the as ****. She needed to be the victim. I sure look at her differently
Congratulations on being elected MAN OF THE YEAR! Seriously- you have bigger balls than most and have done so much good work for women’s sports and women’s safety! I love you Megyn. To top it off I am certain you are the first BCHS female grad to be named MAN OF THE YEAR. Congratulations!
I am team Justin all the way from the beginning. First red flag, Blake lively and ryan reynolds is the big player here and they clearly singled out Justin Baldoni from the premiere etc. Classic bully behaviour. Second, have blake actually read the book at all?! Wtf. The whole book is about sex scene, sex scene, sex scene, domestic violence, etc. You should not take that contract if you feel victimize because that is what expected from you. What a fn nightmare blake is. You only have one job and shit at that blake. I lost respect to Colleen hoover, who insist to cast lively as the main woman. I lost respect to RR, who I thought a good guy and wasn't. And I truly shocked seeing crazy behaviour from blake. I never liked her cos she is a butter face but I didn't know she is batshit crazy and vindictive one at that.
Great episode, Megyn! I remember seeing Blake promoting movie, and I was left baffled how someone can be so out of touch with the subject of domestic violence. This really bothered me since I grew up in a home with domestic violence. Blake had the opportunity to bring to light on this subject. Instead, she says, "Bring your floral dresses"???
💯 agree the movie was … not cohesive in its message. It could have been a lot stronger in the way that showing how she (the character) allowed herself to get into the situation with her future husband. It didn’t show her insecurities at all, like it was really weird to see her dressed so sexily in the film it did not seem in alignment for her character. Idk I’m currently reading the book.
I think she wanted that p.g.a. Title. Possibly, When she didn’t get it, she set out her plan. Supposedly she didn’t even read the book to see who Lily was. How can you dress her, play her, understand who Riley was , if u don’t read the book?
Even after the movie was released, Justin talked about Lively in a respectful manner in his interviews. I tend to believe Justin. Especially after seeing Lively so cheerful in her interviews after the movie release.

Good for Megyn for fighting back, and good for Justin Baldoni for fighting back. I pray he wins. I’m sick of all the liars who think they are above everyone else.
What makes you think he's innocent?
@@cleigh113they are not even comparable and you really don't need to do all that homework I just listed to know that this is a good man who does not care about Fame and red carpet and what position he played. He was happy celebrating in the basement of his own film with his family and friends because they got the message out there. While Blake lively was changing the original character of the book making her some fancy girl who wore $10,000 shoes and went around the interviews talking about how she designed the wardrobe which is completely opposite from the actual book character.

I’m no fan of Blake lively. And Justin Baldoni seems to have made his name as a male feminist, an identity that seems likely to be inconsistent with Lively’s accusations of sexual harassment and retaliation. As with any allegations, it’s wise to withhold judgment until more facts come out. Baldoni had recently received an award for his advocacy on behalf of women. Based on the complaint published in the NYT, the organization took the award back. But now, Baldoni’s lawsuit has alleged facts that raise questions about the validity of Lively’s complaint. There’s much more to come. Let’s just see.
Who are you referring to as liars who are above everyone else?
@@cleigh113. Research. And following stories such as this. Please do lots of research and come to the conclusion that Blake Lively has been a BULLY in Hollywood for years and is just now getting hers - Karma is a Bitch!
Blake is tarnished. I don’t think she can really come back from this. No one is going to care about her “fashion” bs anymore
I can't agree with you more, fully. 💯
Reynolds needs to be shunned along with her...he wasn't some innocent party in any of this...he needs to go down with the ship.
@@GSP-76he should take Hugh Jackman with him since they are such good buddies!
@@SummerLuvr7 I often wonder how much Hugh had to know about what was going on...him and Reynolds are close friends and he was with them at both premiers for Deadpool and It Ends with Us... really makes you wonder. He had to have known all those scenes they shot in Deadpool with Nicepool were directly aimed at Baldoni. Can only hope Baldoni's lawyers expose everyone because Bryan sounds like he knows about a lot of people who were complicit.
@@GSP-76 indeed! I’m sure they all got a good chuckle about Justin Baldoni on Wolverine and Deadpool. Also, how much did Ryan Reynolds know about Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster? 2 Cheaters, lying to their spouses, lying to their kids. I was a huge Hugh Jackman fan until this deceitful behavior. I’ll bet Ryan and Blake were right there egging him on in his pursuit of an affair. After all, isn’t that how Ryan & Blake got together? Or, did he cheat when he was with Alanis Morrissette? Or is it all his women? I can’t wait for the old adage of “if they do it with you, they’ll do it to you” comes back into everyone’s life and they all screw each others over since that’s how they roll. I really hope Justin Baldoni win$$ big in court.
The fact that he wasn’t even planning on telling his side of the story until the accusations shows a lot about his character
This is what I feel from the time the accusations started..
This!
That’s exactly what a guilty person would do though…
I've worked in the entertainment industry on the business side in LA years ago. It is highly unlikely that Justin Baldoni or his team instituted a smear campaign against Blake Lively. No producer, director, or studio would do anything like this after 4 years of working on a film as it would destroy the success and, most importantly, the profits of the movie. He is a business owner and has investors and a major studio to not only pay back, but that also expect massive profits from this movie.
Do people actually believe that Baldoni and his team would target the LEAD actress in his own film and do a smear campaign against them during the promotion, marketing, and release of the movie or while it was in theaters and risk losing millions of profits after 4 years of working on this movie????
If anything, a planned smear campaign would harm Baldoni's film and his movie at the box office. The most a producer or director would do is never work with that person again or just fire them early on. But to actively do it during marketing and release of the film is highly unlikely to happen, or at least that Baldoni would actually authorize a pr team to do this.
Baldoni is the business owner of his own studio and a director, and the entertainment industry is a for-profit business. He's not going to destroy his own company like this. If he did (which I don't believe he did), he would be insane or a stupid businessman.
Good points!
I mean disney/lucas films did it to gina carano.
Agree! Especially when is your first major project!
Sounds accurate.
If you wanted to preempt her position, then you would do precisely what she accuses him of. I think a lot of facts are missing. We should all be holding our ammo.
I'm so glad Justin is finally letting someone take the gloves off to tell his side of the story. He tried to be above it all, but enough is enough!
Yep he’s finally grown a pair, team Justin Baldoni all the way.
@suninaries571 most people would just let the insurance handle it.
Seems like another greasy hollywood guy trying to get away with inappropriate sexual behaviour
The lawyer on this episode is just brilliant. He does his homework. So glad hes exposing the lies. 👊Good episode.. very enlightening!
@@jenrae-w7w he is the lawyer of the defendant of course he will say what he said. Duh.
Im waiting for an interview with the other side if it’s possible. Might not, pending a court case.
@@teamworksevents938the “other side” blew it!
Blake lively is the biggest bully Hollywoods had in yrs. The way she berated that poor lady just trying to interview her was cookoo. The woman simply gave her congrats on her pregnancy, which lively had already announced publicly btw. Blake shamed every question she asked from that point. I guess she wants to live in a world where motherhood isn't acknowledged or celebrated.
Perhaps hers are surrogate.
Yes! Plus Kjersti is such a genuine person. She’s quickly become one of my favorite creators.
She bullied Kate Middleton not knowing the princess is quietly suffering from cancer, how low can she get!
And you know her personally
@@3722-d5sand this interviewer, Kiersti, has infertility problems.
Poor Justin shunned by the cast and having to go to the premiere separately alone. Seeing that picture of him standing alone on the red carpet makes me sad. It's bullying.
Yes, it’s very sad. BL doesn’t seem like a fragile, harassed chick, rather the contrary.
Lol, omg...
I pray he'll win big time❤
Is it the directors/casting director,/producers that chooses the cast for the film? Then the actors of it ends with us are either ungrateful or deeply manipulated by Blake Lively.
@@annielakezurc8553 Who knows, but BL has lost respect due to the way she has treated people in interviews, so it's not a stretch that she may have skewed how people view JB in the snarky and rude way she's done to others in interviews especially since she seems to have been throwing her weight around. Tsk tsk...and up and coming people in "the industry" more than likely will forego their own integrity and back the power person, easy when they might not know what all really happened (or they just quietly have chosen to look the other way).
I thought sexual harassment was about power? When did Justin have the power in this whole situation? His movie was taken over and away from him.
Shame on her…she’ll never come back from this.
Excellent point
Exactly
Very good point.
Baldonie allowed that because he knows he is guilty of inappropriate behavior, so he let Blake take control to make amends. His company's backer is a major league billionaire, no less powerful than Blake Lively
I can't believe Blake says that she was shown pornography when it fact it was a home birth for a scene they wanted to do for the movie. How can anyone believe anything she says?
How do you know what she was shown! Always remember there's her side there's his side and there's the truth
it’s not appropriate to show naked photos of your wife at work, even if it’s a birthing photo. TMI….I don’t care if they are doing a movie involving a birth. If she did not agree to nudity within her contract, baldoni and the other producer should not have been pressuring her to do a nude birth scene in the movie. That’s not normal. I’ve had 2 kids and I can assure you, I was not completely nude. I would NOT have wanted to see a naked Blake lively on film anyhow! The fact that Baldoni hired his friend to be the OBGYN doctor is also disturbing and not professional. I hope Meghan tells their side too. From what I’ve heard based on the California EEOC complaint, assuming it’s all true, baldoni sounds like a creep that’s trying to play victim. In her complaint she also references other women on set so my gut feeling is that there may be other female witnesses who can support these claims. While I agree that Blake comes off as a total mean girl b*tch, that doesn’t mean she should have to tolerate sexual harassment in the workplace. We all know Hollywood is sick and has a history of abusing women. If Baldoni is guilty, he deserves to go down for his sins.
@sflores97 I guess the bottom line is we don't know all the facts..maybe Blake didn't object to seeing the home birth video at the time and is suddenly making this claim now just to disparage Justin and the others she's suing. Even though she is horrendous to people as we've seen in several interviews, you're right she doesn't deserve sexual harrassment. It's just hard to believe her when we've seen how badly she treats people. She says Justin sexually harrassed her when there is literally a video out there with her groping Justin and showing him how she wants him to grab her and he looks very uncomfortable. She didn't treat that one interviewer well when all she did was congratulate her on her pregnancy and refused to apologize to her when it was made public but instead doubled down by insinuating that the interviewer collaborated with Justin to harm her image in her lawsuit, which wasn't true. I pray the truth comes out and justice is done 🙏
@sflores97 she also said Justin walked in on her naked while she was breastfeeding when now there is a text showing that she invited Justin to her trailer while she was breastfeeding
@frankcolasanto2519 Uh, it's in her complaint.
Blake canceled herself when the video resurfaced and went viral from a press junket she did with Parker Posey years ago. Blake (and Parker) were so incredibly rude and mean to the sweet low key interviewer, it was SO revealing and this big bully of a girl Blake will never truly be seen the same again. She kind of reminds me of Amber (Johnny Depps ex).
EXACTLY 💯 I was going to say the same. Clearly this was a narcissist/Empathic relationship. (Alot like Amber and Johnny) Justin being the empathic one. She started scoring points and feeding herself almost immediately off her being in a higher power position. He immediately did everything he could to playcate her. It makes me wonder what brought him to make this film, life lessons? Past experience? It is not just adults affected by DV. His empathic nature may be a result and one Blake took advantage of. What also struck me was her vision was about empowering women all well and good but not realistic in real world DV, his was about showing the real time realities. Having been in a DV situation myself it can be a slow spiral. Like a frog in a slow boil. I had always said If something happened like that to me I would be gone, not realizing slowly over years how I was relinquishing control losing my autonomy. I was the empath, the one not wanting to make waves. How doing so could destroy everything. I recognized it with Johnny and the same with Justin.
I was just thinking the same
Shamefully, Parker Posey was feeding off of Blake’s mean girl energy. No backbone
She makes Amber Heard look like child’s play. Looks like her phony husband is a bully too!
"No one will believe you because you're a man." -Amber Heard
Blake and her husband don’t have a lot of acting talent. Denzel Washington said as much. They are big Hollywood couple with big ego and no character
What did Denzel washington say?
What did denzel washington say?
@@JoeAnderson-z6x Danzel said, "Rosebud"
Blake, a lead actress? I watched the movie, didn’t know what was going on. I wasn’t impressed with her from the first scene.
@@sheilacamplol
I am team Justin….something is just off with this Blake character…I was looking at her work history, and wasn’t surprised.
Totally agree! I feel sorry for Ryan for being married to a horrible shrew
I hope Justin is okay and knows a lot of people believe him and are rooting for him!
If Blake wanted to direct so bad, just have your rich husband make it happen. She’s just sound like an entitled mean girl.
She could plainly see that Justin is a really nice guy. To her, that means weak and her nature is to play power games for no other reason than to exert power. What a sad and sorry soul.
Unfortunately he probably did by backing Blake on the hostile takeover of the film. He himself pushed the director of deadpool wolverine out.
What ?? 😮😮@@MarySummers-l5e
Because....SHE IS!!
Believe me, Ryan Reynolds was just as shocked as everyone else when Blake announced he wrote a scene in the movie. She was basically saying, if I'm going down, you're coming with me. I know their dynamic. That's the level to which she manipulates. When threatening the children doesn't work to keep him compliant, she just says crazy things on stage or on air to test the limits of his willingness to stick his neck out. You want to know who planted the Blake Lively stories? This woman was the bane of my existence from the fall of 2020 to 2024. My sheer willpower is the culprit. More context: Ryan asserted that Blake wrote parts of Deadpool when I'm not sure she can write an essay. He lied about her writing credits to try to cater to her. So she didn't really have to get very inventive to come up with her lie. Typical. I hope you are looking into her IMDB as well. Her only directing experience was essentially a low-budget commercial with Taylor Swift's name on it. The idea that she would be hijacking the jobs of career editors and essentially making herself director of a feature length film that qualified people poured their creative souls into is disgusting to me.
Agree! Neither one of them should be hired again for anything. Fraudulent behavior
I don't believe you. Ryan is an AH too. He is not a victim. He is part of it. Check what he did on the Deadpool set. Both of them are entitled asshats.
Yeah, more likely to be the other way around. Ryan Reynolds is not a man with a good reputation. I think they are well suited.
She directed a Taylor Swift music video, which was actually great, but aylor Swift is the visionary behind those...many directors of her videos have said that Taylor provides storyboards and has exceptional concepts to her music video so I give all credit to Taylor.
That being said, while I like Taylor, it doesn't mean that I have to like Blake and in fact I can't stand Blake.
Deadpool was the most pointless, unfunny, stupid movie I have seen in years. Just blood and gore, no real story line. Both of the are sh|t
I love this attorney! 🙌
And Camille Vasquez should join him too...❤❤
I've heard for a long time that Lively was a pain in the ass. I mentioned this on another you-tube channel and was attacked by Blake Lively sycophants. I'm glad to know that the truth will finally come out. Thanks for posting!
What? I had no idea there were blake fans anywhere.
@@ellieveganphilly-7335 GREAT!!!
@@ellieveganphilly-7335lol yeah just depends on which comment section you’re in. You’re probably in a bubble. They are very much out there.
She has classic Narcissistic personality disorder. She expects men to fall in love with her and when they don't she is wounded. These sociopaths then are out to destroy them in the worst way. It's Amber Heard part 2. I hope Justin and his colleagues get justice. I think people will see right through this.
Sounds exactly like her bestie Taylor Swift. Then writes bad stuff about her exes, she's always the victim. The worst part is her 15 yr old gazillion fans would defend her to death. People need to wake up about the people they are putting on the pedestal.
Are you a psychiatrist who has interviewed and observed Lively to make that diagnosis? If so you are breaking client-doctor confidentiality. If not, you are liable for defamation. While I don’t agree with Lively’s behaviour, you can’t go around labeling people narcissists or sociopaths. Most people don’t actually know exactly these traits - you are observing what you think is a self centered and entitled person, but clinical labels beyond that are out of your scope of knowledge and you’re settling into dangerous territory of defamation.
@@kerrynmckay5273 - It's an opinion. Those are still allowed. Relax.
😂@@kerrynmckay5273
@kerrynmckay5273 when did you become a lawyer! An opinion is an opinion 🤷
Team Justin❤ Blake is not a normal girl that has to endure this behavior from anyone. If that was the case she should have stop filming and sue them or take legal action at that point.
Those were my exact thoughts 👍 I’ve always really liked Ryan Reynolds, but the fact that he’s married to her gives me pause..!
She probably just couldn’t handle the aggressive parts of the film and convinced herself that she was assaulted. She is not an A lister actress by any means. She didn’t even have the decency to read the book beforehand and seriously thought it was a regular rom com.
She basically wanted to put the blame on someone else for all her wrongdoings. Congrats Blake for tarnishing your career on your own. She is the epitome of someone who should never represent women period! I’m embarrassed for her!
Enjoyed this conversation. It has been helpful to hear Megyn and Billy’s side of this issue. I’ve not watched NBC for years.
I really liked seeing Billy Bush, he’s a classy guy.
This interview is such a great example of “what happens TO us is actually happening FOR us”. Happy for you both!
Listening to Mr. Freedman, it becomes clear in hindsight that Lively was focused on promoting her husband’s movie, her hair care products, beer, and other ventures rather than the film itself. This appears to have been deliberately orchestrated by her and her husband, who used their perceived power to bully Baldoni in the process. Their actions seem calculated and unfair. I hope Ryan and Blake are held accountable. It’s astonishing how insufferable some individuals can be.
Exactly, and people saw it and became outraged. If she didn't get so much backlash, none of this would be happening. The stress she endured was from the backlash that people were calling her out.
@ exactly. And now she wants to punish Baldoni. What boggles my brain is why she got her husband on board to bully this guy. These were HR matters. I don’t take my husband to my job to fight my battles.
I like Ryan, I think she runs his Show too! She convinced him of something different all together I bet! I bet she had feelings for Justin and they weren’t reciprocated and she is a woman scorned! Childish but this is her nature! She also runs the Show around her Mom and Dad and siblings too I just bet!
I honestly believe that Megyn is not replaceable
The author was equally disappointing too, she turned on Justin at the drop of a dime, when he took such care to honour her words on screen.. she could have stayed neutral.. but neutral wouldn't have gotten her into hollywood parties
Totally agree! It really shows her lack of character. She’s made a comment about how honest Blake is. Well where’s her comment now since Blake’s been exposed for the fake narrative she put out into the world? Spineless
The author went along with the bullying by flattering the couple's money and power. What a shame!
Yes, same, what a disappointment. Or she is brainwashed by the believe all women ridiculousness.
Congratulations MK on becoming The Ruthless Podcast’s “Man of the Year” award. We love you!
It gives a sense of "You reject me? I'll destroy you!" Blake may have made a move on Justin, and he said no thanks. It gives me creepy 'Gone Girl' vibes.
It’s possible bc she flirted with actors before whether married or not. Ryan fell for it and divorced Scarlett
Megyn please keep going on the Lively Baldoni suit….its interesting and a nice break from politics.
I hope Justin wins his suit.
Read how BL treated Leighton Meester on Gossip Girls....bullied her and took overcwardrobe, because she didwant Meester to dress better or cuter on set. BL's dad got Blake that roll
Her parents did a disservice to her by handing everything over with no effort. She didn’t have to try and get anything on her own. No real accomplishments from beginning to end.
Ruthless’ man of the Year - Megyn Kelly 🎉
YES!!!!!
Megyn is an alpha female for sure.
Billable hours from new money that doesn't know better. Weeeeee! New boat!
Men should not be allowed in women's spaces and women should not be allowed in men's spaces. We can't have a double standard that's what the left does😊
Before I ever heard of this film my daughter who is 30 had said she was unimpressed with both Blake and Ryan because she felt they were snobs and inauthentic. All they care about is their own success and their personal wealth. I had to agree that what I have seen seems to support this take.
The problem with Blake is she’s trying to be like Ryan and funny and sarcastic but it comes across as mean because she’s not good at it!
I think you’re right. What I see is social awkwardness far more than “meanness.” Also, a lot of woman don’t want to discuss pregnancies, & you can see she doesn’t like being asked about it in interviews. Perhaps she used a surrogate, or had IVF or other struggles but it was very clear the topic makes her uncomfortable
@@scarletsletter4466 she was very comfortable talking to Kelly Ripa on her show about her pregnancy I guess its just about who is asking and her mood.
There is nothing wrong with planning to push the truth for someone who is bullying you with no grounds in that world! It’s not a punishment, it’s a way to ensure the truth is revealed!
Wow. I thought that the cast chose to do press with her. Apparently, she set the rules, and Sony allowed it and supported it. Crazy. Imagine if it was reversed and a male actor forced a woman director to sit in the basement of their own movie premiere. She is the person in a position of power in this scenario. She has more money, power, and influence, and she used it.
Justin Baldoni was never in a position of power. How did he harass Blake Lively? It seems as if she harassed JB. I don't understand why she is so "important."
Important? Only in her own eyes.
In case no one is aware Brian Freedman was her lawyer during her firing at NBC and was able to win her case so that she could get paid in full to the agreement when she was hired. He, too, represented Gabrielle Union and walked away with an undisclosed settlement when she accused AGT.
He may well understand the long battle ahead but quite clever how to play where they are going to get large settlements from Blake/Ryan, Sony and NYT.
THIS!!!
As he should, if I was an attorney I would do the same 😂, why would I lose out on my opportunities and not earn money
YAY !!! You bought back Billy Bush !!! Thank God !! He did not deserve to be canceled !!
Hot Mics!! Brilliant idea !!
Congratulations Billy Bush.
Good luck with your new endeavor.
Agreed. I remember when all that happened and wondering what he did wrong. He was listening to someone do locker room talk. They hated Trump so bad that he took the shrapnel from that conversation. Remember how Guthrie interviewed Trump when he ran the second time. I’ve never watched NBC since that day. Cancelled!
So she had the power to take over his entire movie, but let him get away with sexually harassing her on set and did nothing until after. She is full of crap
This greedy couple flatters the powerful while trampling on powerless creators like Baldoni, stealing his talent, and even attempting to completely destroy him.
How repulsive and wicked this is!
Must be narcissistic, that's what they do. Do what they accuse other's of doing.
Blake is a brat. Just talk to some of the actors she has worked with on TV and in movies. They do not like her at all. She and Ryan Reynolds are liars and cheaters.
Justin, on the other hand, is well loved by his coworkers, because he has not let Hollyweird corrupt him.
I fear for Taylor Swift bc her bestie is not of good character. She’s an opportunist
@@MarySummers-l5e? Is this a serious comment? You fear for Taylor Swift? So many weirdos so invested in Hollyweird
Blake was promoting a movie on DV by promoting her alcoholic beverages at the same time. This is so disrespectful and blind mind stupid.
Thank you for bringing the facts to light. We are VERY interested to see how this unfolds. Blake & Ryan must be nervous - very nervous. NYT too.
Justin has a very competent attorney 🌟
Blake was the one with the power, calling all the shots. There was no sexual harassment. She just wants to own the rights to the second film. Just like how her husband hijacked Dead Pool from the original director.
Yes and every Deadpool past the first has been progressively terrible. This latest one was just horrible.
We, the exhausted majority have become tired of Hollywood elites. This won't end the way she thinks it will. We're sick and tired of these self-entitled scumbags.
So well said!👏👏👏
😂😂
Blake Lively refused to work together with the intimacy coordinator as well. That's why they talked to her about the birth scene.
Omgoodness. I just switched to team Justin Baldoni.
What specifically did it for you, I'm curious?
I'll listen to both sides before I make an opinion but it seems like Blake's ego has gotten the best of her and she'll be responsible for her own downfall.
If Justin truly took the high road then he will win this case. This is the year where truth prevails.
Narcissists accuse others of exactly what they, themselves, are doing. I hope Johhny Depp helps support Justin through this. The parallels between their situations are striking.
Grateful for the interview with Billy Bush. Had no idea of his innocence in the 2016 awful smear of President Trump from that locker room taping. My impression from angry online discussions at the time was that the Bush family hated Trump so much they asked Billy to release that tape. I hope he keeps on laying out the truth on his new show about what actually happened. He deserves to have his name cleared. Wishing him great success on his new show.
To add context to the rudeness that Blake showed towards the journalist asking about the "clothes" in her film with Parker Posey - she was referring to the period costumes worn, but I guess as English is her second language she used the word "clothes". AND that prompted Ms Lively to use a misogynist angle to the journalist's question and wonder out loud if men would be asked about the clothes. This was a great interview - can't wait to hear what is revealed in a court case. I hope that Justin Baldoni receives justice and fair play.
Can they release Justin's cut so we can watch the real movie? Decided not to see Blakes version.
I am team Justin….something is just off with this Blake character…I was looking at her work history, and wasn’t surprised. Thank you lawyer for fighting for Justin
I really hope Justin isn't persuaded to settle. I hope it takes it all the way with those two. Blake Lively is truly a piece of work! Some people need to be re-raised. It seems the elementary lessons of being kind and learning to live peacefully with others needs to be retaught to some. How does one even sleep at night treating others this way?
Baldoni is afraid of Blake Lively. He could have lost everything - he would never have behaved in an inappropriate way. He was living his dream - until he met Blake Lively who turned his little dream into a nightmare. I am very certain of that. That's also what people share about him that know him personally. He is not that kind of person.
What's "really" going on with Blake is that Colleen Hoover is the next Nicholas Sparks author. Everyone in the book world knows it.
And there is a looong list of her books that will be adapted. Ryan saw the opportunity and they used their billionaire profile to get in a power position for the franchise... just. like. deadpool.
Such a good, smart point!
I have nothing for Colleen Hoover after she immediately backed Blake. I'll never read another book of hers. She stood up for a woman who made a mockery of the basis of her book. She sold out all victims in that moment.
And I agree 100% that's what I told my friend the other day. They saw an opportunity for $$$. As if they don't have enough already.
I think that comment about 1:49:14 the “bump,” was Blake Lively slamming the interviewer for making a comment about HER bump. Perhaps the original “congratulations” could have been phrased as “pregnancy” rather than “bump.” But Lively’s response was very aggressive and rude. Not at all appropriate to the congratulations offered by the interviewer, which was done in good faith. Clearly the interviewer did NOT have a bump. That was so rude. And, the whole wardrobe response was also out of line! She seemed almost to be looking for a fight.
During that interview was the time everyone was looking to be a victim n victimized
Isn’t that what she said?
After seeing that interview, I lost respect and admiration for Blake Lively. It was nasty, mean, and uncalled for!
Yes, as a DVS, I was completely taken aback when my 19 year old son and I went to watch the movie. We both teared up several times. I was not prepared for it to be so heavy, due to watching Blake tell the video audience to “Grab your friends, and your florals!”.
What people don't notice is this. Yes Blake can act. However she's not a great actress. She plays the same part all over the place. In different forms but still technically the same character. She's never been anything worth any real depth. If she was shorter period, she wouldn't get more then half of these roles. She only gets stuff because of her looks. I'm a victim of domestic violence of a fiancé and sexual assault from him and rape from another. If I was ever assaulted by a coworker if married, I'm not sure I would have told him. Let's say I did, most men don't wait to report it, they go and handle it themselves. I can go on. This sounds like Blake is manipulating everything and everyone, including her husband. Or he's completely aware of her crap she pulls
I have been fortunate to have spent 30 years of my working career outside of the United States and I say this because living in different countries people would tell me how distorted the US main stream media was by twisting the truth or telling complete lies. And the longer that I lived and worked in these countries the more I begin to see through the US news as sheer propaganda, especially through the various wars in Iraq, Afghanistan , Ukraine.. I pray the people like you will shine the light on the truth for future generations.
I live in Ireland and it’s as bad here now
Many Americans are working to alleviate this propaganda and shut it down once and for all. We may or may not succeed. We are making every effort!
I’m a micro influencer. 2 years ago on a national women’s day campaign, we were asked to pick a woman we looked up to by a particular brand. I picked Megyn. I gave my reasons. My Examples were “she is standing up for women” aka the trans movement. No men in our bathrooms, sports jails etc. at that time very few people were saying out loud trans women are not women. They stopped sending me PR. I can’t say for sure this is the reason but I believe it was. I won’t say the brands name. But I’m so happy to see more people are speaking up on that topic. Just wanted to drop this if Megyn sees this :) big fan!
Ryan used his fame and power to bully his way through getting the Deadpool franchise and Blake is trying to do the same… also, we are not talking enough about the author of the books who also betrayed Justin and is also problematic in her own way
Yes! I'll never read another Colleen Hoover book. She slapped all victims in the face with this movie and her backing of Blake. When it's so obviously fabricated. Any fabricated sexual attack hurts true victims more and more.
Sounds like Blake Lively didn’t learn from Amber Heard‘s mistake.
Yeah and Amber voiced her support for Blake too sooo….
Someone get Maureen Callahan on this Blake Lively BS. I want to know what she thinks. Always thought Blake and Ryan were fake
Who is Maureen Callahan?
@glcoola2349 Megyn has her on frequently. She knows all kinds of juicy stuff about people. She wrote the 'Ask Not' book on the Kennedy men last summer
Oh my gosh, yes! You know she woukd research this thing within an inch of its life. She always has the best takes. Then watching her and Megyn talk about it is the icing on the cake.
@@AF-mq8xbyes! Her and Megyn can get to the bottom of all of it
From day one I always was, still am, and unless an earth shattering truth comes out to support Blake I will always be Team Justin! Just the fact that she is bringing this law suit like she is shows how disgusting she is!!!xoxoxo
I was disgusted by Blake the minute I heard her say “grab your best friend and wear your florals”…I would have thought it was a rom com and then would have been severely triggered while watching the movie if I went to see it…which I didn’t and now have no desire to because of how Blake has put such a negative imprint on this movie. I love that Justin wanted to do this movie to say that victims and survivors are seen and heard! All Blake wanted to do is promote her hair care which I’ve seen reviews and they say it’s a horrible product as well as her alcohol products!!!xoxoxo
Megan Kelly…. you ROCK. You have more guts honesty and clout than any and all of the mainstream media put together. You stood firm, you fought, and you won. Today you speak, and the world listens. Regards from Australia 😊as for Blake Lively issue, after hearing both sides, neither Blake nor Ryan Reynolds deserve to work in Hollywood ever again (one can only hope).
Will not be seeing this film due to this horrible woman
Well it’s his head on the block so see it if you want to support him…. I know a conundrum
@@saolairde396Good point. Watched it before I knew anything about all this drama. I agree with you, so I gave it a thumbs up on Netflix. Thanks.
The female reporter, Kjersti Flaa, asked Blake and Posey about the clothing in the movie because it is a period movie so I don't understand Blake's snotty response. Blake and Posey acted like 2 mean girls.
They both owe her an apology
@@MarySummers-l5e I saw KF in an interview after her video about these 2 bullies went viral. She said she can't have children so Blake's comment really hurt her. Hollywood is so ugh.
I am not a blake fan but to be fair she would not know that Kjersti Flaa can't have children. Other thing is she congratulated her on her bump some people can be offended like Blake cos in her mind it means she is fat perhaps (Kjersti being Norwegian did not mean it in an offensive way just a language difference) just my opinion
@@priscillagovender5368 I understand that Blake wound't know about KF but it was a jerk thing to say regardless. It was obvious that Blake was pregnant and I have yet to hear that being an offensive way to congratulate a woman on her pregnancy. Baby bump sounds pretty darn cute.
She doesn't look like a person cowering in bed! She sounds spoiled! I hope Justin wins and she shows who she really is.
Thank you for explaining all of this in a we can all understand. Appreciate being clued into the legal process and details, and I’m looking forward to seeing how everything unfolds. As a domestic abuse survivor, after hearing the facts so far, I’m 💯 on Team Justin and wish his team the best.
Bless you, sweetie. xo
I'm wondering if Justin would be considered a person with disabilities under the Americans for Disabilities Act because I read online that he has herniated discs in his back, meniscus and cartilage issues in both knees, and arthritis in one shoulder.
If so, did Ryan Reynolds violate Justin's right to find out if Blake was within a weight limit that would be safe for him to pick up by berating and humiliating him in the presence of other movie officials and characterizing Justin's concern to avoid injuring himself further as "fat-shaming" Blake Lively? Was this a violation of Justin's civil rights by not allowing him a reasonable accommodation for his medical issues?
Apparently, Blake Lively became angry when Justin was trying to figure out if he could safely lift her which resulted in any lift scenes being cut from the movie. I still wonder, though, if Ryan went too far when he berated and humiliated Justin in public in association with his medical issues and seemingly minimized these issues as well.
Glad to see Billy is doing well now. I always wondered what happened to him after he was unfairly fired.
Blake Lively, like megan markle has from the very beginning has always given me mean girl vibes.
I do not know who is right or wrong in this situation… I guess we’ll wait for discovery to find out! However, the interview that Blake Lively sat with that young reporter was so embarrassing for her! She was so condescending-especially that question about the fashion and her responding by ignoring the reporter and speaking solely to her costar. That interview alone revealed what a colossal bully she is…her acting was mediocre at best but now her entire persona has been tainted. I’m glad that she and Ryan Reynolds are named in the lawsuit!
That wasn’t the only interview or circumstance in which she’s behaved like a spoiled brat
I wonder how all this resentment started. To make up such awful lies for attention and to turn around bad publicity over a below par movie is unbelievable. Blake and Ryan are very silly and made themselves look really bad. I will never be able to look at them the same way after this and I am sure I am not the only one.
I think it all began with her not reading the book the movie was based on. Justin’s lawyer mentioned it in the interview. I can see how the creative team and Blake would not see eye to eye if she hadn’t read the book and everyone else had. I’m sure that was humbling for her and instead of embracing humility she stood her ground. But I’m just speculating.
Very impressed with attorney Bryan Freedman.
Sounds to me she was planning on doing this from the beggining to have the rights of the movie off him. Like when she refused to meet the intimacy coordinator and that forced him to see that person alone and then rely the IC's recomendations back to her, forcing him to have sexual convos with her . Also writting that 17 steps list knwing none of that was happening, just so she could have some "evidence" for a future lawsuit
Blake Imagine was tarnished after the video of her movie interview came out, when she was pregnant and she was rude the as ****. She needed to be the victim. I sure look at her differently
Congratulations on being elected MAN OF THE YEAR!
Seriously- you have bigger balls than most and have done so much good work for women’s sports and women’s safety! I love you Megyn.
To top it off I am certain you are the first BCHS female grad to be named MAN OF THE YEAR. Congratulations!
I am team Justin all the way from the beginning. First red flag, Blake lively and ryan reynolds is the big player here and they clearly singled out Justin Baldoni from the premiere etc. Classic bully behaviour. Second, have blake actually read the book at all?! Wtf. The whole book is about sex scene, sex scene, sex scene, domestic violence, etc. You should not take that contract if you feel victimize because that is what expected from you. What a fn nightmare blake is. You only have one job and shit at that blake. I lost respect to Colleen hoover, who insist to cast lively as the main woman. I lost respect to RR, who I thought a good guy and wasn't. And I truly shocked seeing crazy behaviour from blake. I never liked her cos she is a butter face but I didn't know she is batshit crazy and vindictive one at that.
Blake was never an actress. You are right, the movie should follow the book , and the book has a lot of sex scenes.
And the NYT will never apologize
Justin needs to make that happen
The cool about this is that He have so many witnesses about the hold mistreated of this ENTITLED NARCISSIST WOMAN. Shame on her
I’m so ready 4 change! ❤ 🇺🇸
I didn't believe lively after about a day. She is a horrible person and im glad they r going after her and her people.
We want to see Justin’s cut!🎬🎥🍿
She set him up in every meeting they had with each other, she also used reverse psychology on him.
Great episode, Megyn! I remember seeing Blake promoting movie, and I was left baffled how someone can be so out of touch with the subject of domestic violence. This really bothered me since I grew up in a home with domestic violence. Blake had the opportunity to bring to light on this subject. Instead, she says, "Bring your floral dresses"???
💯 agree the movie was … not cohesive in its message. It could have been a lot stronger in the way that showing how she (the character) allowed herself to get into the situation with her future husband. It didn’t show her insecurities at all, like it was really weird to see her dressed so sexily in the film it did not seem in alignment for her character. Idk I’m currently reading the book.
I think she wanted that p.g.a. Title. Possibly, When she didn’t get it, she set out her plan. Supposedly she didn’t even read the book to see who Lily was. How can you dress her, play her, understand who Riley was , if u don’t read the book?
Megyn is my favorite ❤
Poor Justin has been Markled. 😢 glad they are suing.
I like it. Put it all out there. It's the only way to get to the truth.
Even after the movie was released, Justin talked about Lively in a respectful manner in his interviews. I tend to believe Justin. Especially after seeing Lively so cheerful in her interviews after the movie release.
Love the shout-out to Kathie-Lee. I really think she got dogged day in and out. I loved her for so long on Regis and Kathie Lee
Love this channel!
