Anyway, the complaint is that she didn’t like her accommodations when filming and went to Wayfair to ask for money to get her security deposit back and get another apartment. Odd, but OK. It’s nice to be an actress I guess.

Apparently wayfarer agreed and they gave her the upgrade and then justin said something that made her uncomfortable about the sanctity of motherhood. So maybe weird inappropriate behavior, but doesn’t sound like sexual harassment?

But hey, she got a nice upgraded apartment in New York City. All of these people are really really strange and they all sound fragile to me.


Comments don't have to be sexual to be sexual harrassment - the definition includes offensive comments related to gender as well.


+1 and the PP twists the details from the THR article in inaccurate ways. There was nothing in there that said Slate was trying to upgrade her housing, or that Wayfarer was paying for the upgrade. She said she was unhappy with the apartment she was renting because it posed some issues for her toddler but that she wasn't going to move because she didn't want to pay the 15k security deposit to get out of the lease. It's not even clear she asked them to pay for it -- it sounds like they volunteered.

I'd really like to know what Baldoni said that was so upsetting that Slate reported it to HR given that the conversation was about Wayfarer paying 15k to help her break her lease. I would put up with a lot of weirdness to save 15k! I feel like it must be something really bad.


Yes, sorry I said upgrade, Jenny was clearly asking to change the apartment which required a $15,000 security deposit which sounds pretty swanky to me so she could go rent a a shit hole for her and her toddler. Yes, I badly misconstrued it.

Give me a freaking break. These people are completely insufferable. I would love to find out why it was inappropriate for her toddler. I can’t stand these people and I used to absolutely love Jenny Slate and was going to get her book. Oh well.


You can't read. She was paying for her own apartment. NYC real estate is insanely expensive and deposits can be highway robbery. Normally you'd get it back but she wanted to leave early because there was some problem with the apartment for her kid. She didn't want to lose a 15k deposit because that's a huge amount of money, even for a famous actor. Already the cost of accommodations in NYC we're probably eating into her paycheck for the movie.

We have no idea what Heath said. I think it's weird you've written Slate off for this. It sounds like she didn't want to come forward,was dragged into it by Lively and maybe THR, and we still have no idea what Heath said that was bad enough to make her report it.

It's super weird to me that your conclusion from that is "I hate Jenny Slate." Take a breath.


You do realize the studio pays for accommodations for actors while they’re working? She wasn’t paying for any of that.


No they don't always pay for the accommodations. Jenny lives in NYC. She wasn't traveling there for work. There is zero context on what this situation is about and you're already ready to burn her at the stake with misinformation.


And everyone was ready to burn Justin at the stake for grabbing her butt. Everyone needs to chill.


I don’t think people were as upset over that one as the other one about the sex scene with the young actress. Honestly, I don’t like Baldoni and I even posted here that I didn’t even believe the latter allegation. I don’t think anyone here took those YouTube complaints that seriously.


They did for a little bit. Just like everyone is speculating now.

Not at all. Just about everyone here said they wanted to wait on confirmation and it was sketchy those complaints only ended up on reddit, tiktok, and podcasts.

Young Lily is apparently a Clooney so I am sure Rosemary and George will help her out if needed!

From the start in this back in August, I was really turned off by Jenny and Blake and their unprofessionalism with promotion of this movie. Obviously Blake took it to a whole other level with her completely terrible interviews about domestic violence, launching a frivolous business, and shilling her alcohol line as part of the promotion, but what really turned me off about her and Jenny was just how disrespectful they were toward Justin.

I am sure we have all had workplace disputes and not gotten along with people, but you pull it together for the client or the meeting or whatever you need to do. Hollywood is littered with absolutely terrible relationships, but people pull it together for the promotion of the film, and then they move on with their lives. If it was some magic formula that public disputes would translate to box office gold I’m sure we would see more of it, but “don’t worry, darling” was not exactly a box office hit so I don’t think it translates.

So yeah, I just thought it was total mean girl stuff at the time, especially when he was being so professional.

Fast-forward to all of these things coming out and I still don’t see what would’ve caused this. I will need to learn more about Jenny slates situation but it sounds like they bent over backwards to accommodate her? I’m not sure why they would pay a security deposit for an actress who lives in New York City in the first place? And then it sounds like he’s socially awkward and said something about motherhood that she didn’t like, but why runoff to HR? I’m going to try not to judge until I get more context, but it really just seems like they decided that they were just going to bully this guy. Which is fine, go to HR and file a complaint. But then I don’t know why you have to air it out in August 2024 and just be so mean during the promotion.

There has been absolutely no official allegation tying Jenny to that accusation. Just rumors on top of rumors. Why not wait and see what the official story is?

Oh I agree. I didn’t make my point well, which was that two days ago the internet went wild speculating about those two fake claims. And now everyone is speculating once again. We should wait for more info before we decide if it’s even relevant to this case.

I’m really curious how this movie made so much money. It’s currently grossed over $350 million, which is a crazy amount for a domestic violence film. Baldwin has come nowhere close to these numbers — Five Feet Apart grossed 45 million but Clouds grossed far less, I can’t even find real numbers but maybe only $2 million? Lively’s A Simple Favor (I) with Kendrick grossed about $100 million. I don’t think Hoover’s ever come close to this before. Was the success in fact from all the controversy? Was Reynold’s promotion firm really successful here? $350 million is a lot of viewers.

Apparently, Jenny‘s complaint about the sanctity of motherhood comment was about Jamey Heath, not Justin.

Maybe this was the plan all along, sort of reverse psychology. Even negative attention is better than no attention.

No,no. You guys are missing that Colleen Hoover‘s book was hugely popular. People have been waiting for this movie to be made for years and there was a lot of attention on it as soon as it was announced. She has a ginormous fan base. Another one of her books, verity, is being made with Anne Hathaway, Josh Hartnett, and Dakota Johnson.

I personally don’t understand the popularity of the books, but she is a huge deal. This was a really covered role that Blake scored.
