Dec 22, 2024, 11:48 PM

Blake Lively has filed a lawsuit against her 'It Ends With Us' co-star Justin Baldoni, accusing him of sexual harassment and orchestrating a smear campaign against her. The complaint alleges that Baldoni and his team engaged in a coordinated effort to damage Lively's reputation following her accusations of misconduct. Lively's former co-stars from 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants'—America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel—have publicly expressed their support for her, condemning Baldoni's alleged actions as hypocritical. In her legal statement, Lively emphasized her hope that her actions would expose retaliatory tactics used against individuals who speak out about misconduct. The lawsuit has drawn attention to Baldoni's past admissions regarding an 'unhealthy relationship' with pornography, as well as claims of inappropriate behavior on set. The situation has sparked a broader discussion about the treatment of women in Hollywood and the tactics used to silence them.
