The representative of Blake Lively published a scathing response to the Justin Baldoni’s legal team to the assignment of Taylor Swift.
The spokesman for the star of “IT ends with us” told page six on Saturday that Baldoni, his co-founder of Wayfarer Studios, Steve Saowitz, and their team “continue to transform a case of sexual harassment and retaliation for entertainment for tabloids”.
The representative also slams Baldoni’s lawyer, Bryan Freedman, for having suggested that Lively, 37, should give him a deposit at Madison Square Garden because she is open to testify.
However, the spokesperson rents Swift, 35, in their statement to be “a woman who has given a voice to millions of people worldwide” before noting that the Baldoni and Lively quarrel is a “very serious legal affair, not the Cirque de Barnum & Bailey”.
“The accused continue to intimidate publicly, intimidate, shame and attack the rights and reputation of women,” says the publicist.
“Including in the last month, seeking to shoot down for allA powerful law on the rights of the victims of California, the appellant “unconstitutional” “, they add, referring to the legal team of the Lively argument to the court to explain why Baldoni was rejected by the alum of” Gossip Girl “.
The representative concludes: “The worrying actions of a billionaire, men who have made their careers as” women’s allies “and their team continue to show their real colors.”
Page Six contacted the Baldoni representative for an answer but has not heard.
Friday, the representative of Swift shared a similar feeling, indicating on page six that their customer of Superstar Pop was used “to draw the public interest by creating a tabloid click bait instead of focusing on the facts of the case”.
The publicist also forcefully refused that Swift played a role in the realization of “it ends with us”.
“(She) never set foot on the set of this film, she was not involved in any casting or creation decision, she did not score the film, she has never seen montage or notes on the film, she has even seen` `IT ends with us ” before weeks after her public release, and said that the representative said to the world.
We do not know where the friendship of Swift and Lively is located following the summons. However, page Six reported exclusively in April that the boyfriend of singer “Shake It”, Travis Kelce, intentionally unsubscribed from Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynold, due to the legal drama.
The rumor has long said that Baldoni lawyers planned to ensure Swift, however, and Freedman even declared publicly in February that the department would be “probably a decision of playing time”.
The name of Swift was first trained in the legal battle when Baldoni, 41, hinted at his counter-combination of $ 400 million on the way in which Lively would have used the influence of the Grammys winner to assert their film control.
In the Court’s documents, obtained on page Six, the alum “Jane The Virgin” said that she received a text from her former co-star, in which she referred to Swift and Reynolds, 48, as “dragons” which “protect it” in all its battles. The message was sent after a meeting they had on script rewritings.
“The message could not have been clearer. Baldoni was not only facing Lively. He was also confronted with the Dragons ” in Lively, two of the most influential and richer celebrities in the world, who were not afraid to make things very difficult for him,” said Baldoni lawyers in the trial.
The actor-director is contradicting animated after having filed a complaint from the California civil rights department and a subsequent prosecution against him for emotional distress and sexual harassment.
The star of “Age of Adeline” alleged that Baldoni had made inappropriate remarks towards her who were sexual in nature, entered her during breastfeeding and had to feel “uncomfortable” on the set. She also said that he had launched a defamation campaign against her to ruin her reputation.
Baldoni denied any reprehensible act and his counter-compliance is for defamation and extortion. Their legal affairs should be tried in March 2026.
