Blake desperately needs people pushing her narrative. She’s losing public opinion by a wide margin.

So she hired lawyers to astroturf for her in a PR campaign? Do I need to screen shot the conspiracy meme again?

Lively is naked below her boobs. There are multiple closeups of her belly and upper legs. Her legs are up in stirrups in a way that if she tried to pull that hospital gown over her lower half, it would ride up because her legs are up in the air.

It was a nude scene. If the actress filming that scene asked for a sheet between takes to cover up her lower body (even just for warmth, not modesty) it should have been provided. I'm sure there were points when she was able to take her legs out of the stirrups and cover up with the gown, but there were also definitely points where she had to lie there in the stirrups between takes because her legs are up for the full scene so I'm sure they were up for much of the shoot.

Those of you quibbling over "oh she could have pulled her hospital gown down" or "she wasn't really nude, she was wearing clothes" just sound dumb. She's obviously nude and the position of her body would have made it impossible to fully cover up with her gown unless she was lying there holding the gown in place the entire time with her hands (and she probably had to do other things with her hands between takes, like review notes about the scene, drink from a water bottle, etc.).

Why didn't they just give her a sheet? Like this is not explained. What possible reason would the production have for not giving her something to cover up during the scene? She shouldn't have to prove that she needs one, it should just be provided.

Do you understand Blake's not actually giving birth? Its called movie making. That's not her nude belly. It's a thick, warm prosthetic torso. Do while she looks like she's naked, she's actually not.

Eh. Maybe, but there's also so many women who hate other women here and can't wait to find something to tear each other down.

But perhaps Baldoni's lawyers will issue a subpoena and find texts from the partners at her law firm talking about changing the narrative and creating a social media campaign on DC Urban Moms. Let's not forget Lively's team have texts from his people talking about doing this on reddit and then within days of those proposals, subreddits like r/blakelivelysnark popped up.

Reddit would be a better audience for Justin, it’s mostly millennial men. But since DCUM absorbed the urban baby audience, it probably is one of the largest message boards for millennial/gen x women.

Haha, I was thinking the same thing.

Still legs spread with a tiny piece of fabric covering her labia while mimicking pushing on an open set, visible camera screens posting the uncut scenesz and regardless of whether she could move to close her legs or move the gown during the shot, nobody could be bothered to give her a coverup when she asked for one.

She already has hired lawyers and publicists, so nothing new there.

It is 600k unique visitors for month per a 2022 call for advertisers. For the entire site. I do not think so. The visitors seem to still heavily skew to living in the DC area. Friends outside of this area have not heard of it.

Once again, I find your thought process here no different from anti vax conspiracy types.

I am one hundred percent sure that the camera was not focused on her labia — for one thing the friend of the director actor would be blocking it, for the other, she wasn’t actually pushing a baby out and aiming a camera there would make it obvious, and lastly, this was a PG 13 movie. Again, your fiction reads well though.

Apologies for implying it was focused on her labia.

But regardless, the way the scene was shot violated industry norms. Industry norms matter more than your opinion and mine, frankly.

The Urban Baby crew didn’t arrive until well after that — it’s 2025, after all. Spend some time on the college forum and you’ll see many posters from NY, Texas, Chicago, and like our entertainment lawyer friend, Los Angeles, among other places.

No matter. I find the insinuation that an expensive lawfirm is accepting payment to astroturf here, on reddit, etc, to influence public opinion in a PR stunt, absurd. A PR firm? Sure. A lawfirm? No.

A prosthetic belly doesn't cover your genitals weirdo.

Word.

I also think non-lawyers don't understand that an attorney can write a 5 paragraph post about some inane legal topic in no time at all. These posts that seem like they took a bunch of effort and research to compose were all probably written in a few minutes. Lawyers think in paragraphs.

Again, protesting too much.

I don't get your motivation here. Like let's pretend for a minute that you are right. Some attorney at Lively's law firm is on DCUM in the middle of the night posting lengthy legal analysis of these complaints that are favorable to Lively.

Why do you care? Are the posts lies? Do you think some jury pool in NYC or LA is going to be negatively impacted by these posts? Do you think the media is combing through DCUM posts to help them craft a pro-Lively narrative? Like what do you think is going to happen here?

I don’t care, just making an observation.

Also, it’s 9 pm in Los Angeles, not the middle of the night.

Don’t you have real fires to put out?
