Why is Blake Lively so overrated?

[Anonymous]

Does it matter that he hired his friend for a scene, assuming he behaved professionally? That particular allegation has caused me to doubt all her allegations. I just don’t see how hiring a friend is harrassing. Especially while Blake is trotting around her dragons.

Blake’s sister is in the movie too, a much bigger role than the OB/GYN as she was actually credited and he was not.

And considering her husband wrote major scenes, and had the director over to his apartment to berate him, really rich to complain that justin hired a friend.

The thing is, it was Blake who tried to and succeeded in getting control of this movie so she is the one that has far more to gain from making it seem like he is the bad guy here. It seemed like when the movie came out Justin was just gushing over her and had no intention of smearing her. Just seems like she instigated all of this and now she’s gotta pay the price.

Justin freaked out after extras started spilling on their affair.

Is there any truth to this or is this just speculation? I mean I would absolutely love this twist but it’s hard for me to believe.

Personally I think it’s a 13-year old highjacking the thread.

I mean we went over this when Lively's complaint came out. Individually, a lot of her allegations seem like not a big deal, but together they could be harassment. We weren't there. We don't really know what the vibe was on set and the complaints present two very different pictures. Not saying she's right or that he's wrong. But the idea that if you find one of her allegations overblown or unreasonable, it means everything in her complaint is wrong, is dramatic. Same is true for his complaint.

It's actually possible to follow this case and not choose sides.

This has been at the back of my mind since the start. They got too close, RR found out, and BL tried to take control of the narrative in various ways. But there is no proof of it at all.

Its my theory and why I think they're being coy about the nature of their relationship.

The issue with hiring a friend was not that it was nepotism (or whatever the friend version of that is) but that it was unprofessional in the context of what the actor was hired to do, which was primarily sit between Lively's legs and deliver a couple lines.

Lively's sister was not hired to play a doctor giving Baldoni a prostate exam, so it's a different situation.

Not at all, most everyone thinks Justin’s complaint is very strong, except for the sock puppeting Blake supporter.

I see your point about patterns. But I also think when you throw in a bunch thin complaints that don’t stand on their own (and there are many of these—not just the friend), you’re showing your own pattern for exaggeration. It goes both ways.

He wasn’t hired because he was a friend, he was hired because he was a skilled actor who was willing to do bit parts. And actors do birth scenes all the time with no claims of sexual harassment.

Saying this as a lawyer, his complaint relies much more on documentary evidence, which is why it is twice the length of hers. Furthermore, he specifically mentioned that the disputed intimacy scenes were recorded, even between takes, which he would not do if the recordings did not support his version of events since she wasn’t aware of this fact. It isn’t choosing sides, one complaint is legitimately much stronger than the other. Which is why Blake’s sock puppeting shill has returned to this thread to nit pick. But it’s for naught, his complaint is stronger.

You’re saying an ordinary man cannot pretend to be an OB without being a pervert? It’s just really a bizarre stretch to think Justin would someone get his jollies through osmosis by having his friend sit by Blake’s groin area on a movie set. It’s really, really a stretch. And in this case it’s a trained actor so it’s all even more bizarre.

Thats my theory too! I think thats why he was ultimately okay with her taking over so much in the beginning. He strikes me as someone with a savior complex. Ryan yelled at him before filming and instead of keeping his distance not only gotten closer to her but more flirty. Doesnt make sense. Ryan found out and demanded to be on set at all times.

This is just another attempt to distract from what a lousy person Blake is with her trumped up complaint. It’s pretty clear from the texts that he quickly realized she was crazy and started trying to appease her.
