I agree that it's rude. Both ways. Blake countering with asking about the interviewer's non-pregnant bump was gross.

I guess the interviewer shouldn’t have “started it”/made the comment, then.

Yep, don’t comment on pregnant bodies. Nobody wants to hear they look due any minute when they are 5 months along or that it looks so uncomfortable. A professional interviewer should know better but apparently didn’t. I bet she learned that day.

I cannot stand it when most (!) celebrities complain publicly about being followed or having zero privacy in their lives!

Hello??!
You guys chose this career path to fame!
And you guys make so much money it is ridiculous to complain about lack of privacy when you can afford anything, anytime, anywhere.
Sheesh.

Everything comes w/a price tag in life.

Why should they be exempt??!

OP I want to know which celebrities were nice!

Don’t forget that many court the paparazzi. They could have more privacy. But they want to be in the spotlight. And then pretend they want privacy. My sister seems to be a celebrity magnet in NYC and has walked by so many of them/met so many. They just walk along and no one is taking pictures/ following them/ etc. This happened once with Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Kelly Ripa, Andy Cohen. Hell I walked into an upscale bar once and Nicholas Cage was just sitting have a drink (not in NY). No one bothered the man.

Yes, congrats on your little bump when the pregnancy has been announced is just like that. :/

Don’t trifle with pregnant women especially if you’re not friends like that. A congrats is enough.

Phillip seymour hoffman (rip)
justin bateman (so nice)
renee z (stands out in memory for being so nice)
julia roberts
anne hathaway
tom h
colin farrell
owen wilson and luke wilson
bill clinton!
francis ford coppola so cute
maya rudolph
chris rock
michael douglas
Frasier!

awful:
joaquin phoenix. tore me to shreds like a total ahole and wish i could get the b roll.
Mr Big (such a douche)
ed norton
carey mulligan so dismissive
Jane birkin (of birkin bags - absolutely the worst person and would never have that bag based on her personality and behavior)

there were many many others and everyone else was just fine. Those were the ones who stuck in my memory for being terrible or super nice.

Same could be said for the response to the hack journalist.

I bet you’re someone who touches pregnant women’s bellies without permission.

Look - you just can’t go around saying things deliberately designed to make someone feel like s***
Congratulating someone on a known pregnancy - even if done awkwardly (this person had English as a second language I believe) is not at all equivalent to implying someone is overweight or just being overall b****y just bc you happen to have the power in the situation.
And don’t build your whole brand around being a ‘crown straightener’ when behind the scenes you’re tearing other women down bc they said something well meaning that just rubbed you the wrong way

Blake lively is dying to be relevant as a serious actor which she is not. Her response to the completely innocent question that was meant to acknowledge her growing family (after her and RR make a big deal about it to the press) was so over the top and reads as super defensive/ crazy diva. She’s trying to rub the interviewers nose in shit bc she’s looking for an identity (feminist! Anti- patriarchy!) trying so desperately create a conversation that somehow she is more than just a pretty face. How dare you ask me about costumes! How dare you comment on my body! (She says as she slips into some sexy body con red carpet dress taking a million pics). Look at me! Don’t look at me! Well which one is it? Completely ridiculous. And the movie sucked so bad, clearly the interviewer was really scraping the bottom of the barrel in regards to what questions to ask. News flash Blake: if you want to taken seriously as an actress, become a good actress in a good movie and become admired for your unquestionable talent.

OP that doesn't surprise me at all. Celebrity is a form of power and if course some celebs abuse it.

Re: Blake, the thing about that video that is so uncomfortable is not that she "claps back" about the bump comment. If Blake has responded to that comment with "please don't comment about my body" and then gone on to give a normal interview, I'd have lots of respect for her-- while many women would unbothered by that comment it's true it is a bit odd to comment on someone's body in that way. Setting that boundary would be good.

But Blake felt the need to *punish* the journalist. She didn't merely set a boundary, she went after the interviewer. Who was (1) Finnish, and therefore should probably be cut some slack for her use of English-- let's see how many faux pas Blake makes when trying to communicate in Finnish, and (2) apparently was struggling with infertility at the time. And Blake felt the need to put this woman in her place because why? She made a slightly invasive comment about a pregnancy that lots of people make all the time?
