| For anyone wondering, the case docket sheet shows that the judge clarified last wednesday 2/12 that due to the federal holiday, Lively's amended complaint would be due today, Tuesday 2/18, not Monday. |
| I hope Justin fights them to the bitter end. These two are evil. |
| The tide is really starting to turn. This latest SNL stunt seemed to have turned off even people who were staunch Team Blake supporters. Who in the world could have thought this was a good idea? Your wife is in the midst of a major sexual harassment lawsuit and you decide to turn it into a joke with SNL writers? The absolute hubris involved here is mind boggling. They are doing Freedman's work for him. |
Do you have a son? A brother? A husband? A father? Any male friends or relatives? Well, unfortunately they could falsely be accused of SH/A. No matter if the victim is ‘grating’ or annoying, Justin is innocent. Blake is the bad guy here. |
It is clear what Blake and Ryan were trying to do. They think they’re superior to Justin and tried to manipulate him. They’ve done this to others just on a smaller scale, as seen by Blake’s disgusting behavior in interviews. They are arrogant, delusional a-holes who deserve to be put in their place. |
Ask yourself if you would perceive this the same way if it had been Justin at a celebrity award show, cracking jokes with the host about a pending sexual harassment case involving him? |

Does anyone think the fat shaming joke by Fred Armisen and Vanessa Bayer during Update Could’ve possibly been a dig at Blake?
One of my favorite parts of the show was during update when Fred and Vanessa did their recurring characters of two friends who are talking behind another friends back. It’s always a hilarious bit and this one did not disappoint. In this case they were talking about Lorne Michaels. But during one part of the bit, they were saying that they asked Lorne if they were going to have dinner and he basically made a joke about how they didn’t need anymore food. And they were like what is that about? Is he calling us fat? Could be totally coincidental, but just struck me this morning….I’m wondering if it was actually a dig at Blake and the alleged fat shaming. |
I have all of the above and none of them behave the way Baldoni does. He has a lot of boundary crossing behavior IMO. I don't know if he SHed anyone, but I don't have men in my life who behave as he does, and if I did, I would talk to them about how their behavior can come across to other people, especially women. Especially if it was my son. Some of the things Baldoni admits to doing, I'd be concerned if my son was doing, especially in the workplace. |
Is your son an actor or director? |
If Justin showed up somewhere in public and made a similar joke (about how crazy things are right now, nothing specifically about the SH allegations), I would not care. He's a person. He's allowed to blow off steam about a stressful court case. I can see a situation in which Reynolds/Lively made light of the situation in an offensive way, but I'm just not seeing it here. Reynolds made light of the bad press and stress of the being embroiled in a public scandal. He didn't make a joke about SH. And Lively didn't make a joke about anything. I truly don't get the uproar here. It seems way overblown. |
My son is too young to have a profession, but it's not relevant. I've worked in creative fields, including as a performer. This attitude of "oh it's ok -- it's a different kind of workplace" is dumb. Just because you're on a movie set doesn't mean it's okay to behave this way. In fact, I think it might make it even more important that you act professionally. You can never go wrong by respecting boundaries and being self-controlled. No matter where you work or who you work with. |
The joke was about her sexual harassment case. Clearly you are making a choice to “not get it.” |
Please point out where he has admitted to behavior that you consider unprofessional. Not alllegations in her complaint, but something from his. |
Well lucky them that they have impeccable behavior at all times and never come across any vindictive female who has it out for them. JB may be awkward and weird, and may have crossed boundaries, but are you aware of Blake’s behavior towards Justin? Google it. Awkward, weird, boundary crossing behavior doesn’t equal SH. |
^^ if anything based on the evidence provided so far, Blake appears to be the aggressor here, again do some research. Just because she is a female doesn’t automatically make her a victim and make her accusations valid. |
