No good deed goes unpunished in Hollyweird. Pit of vipers.

There are millions of working mothers at dead-end jobs who wish their bosses would merely give them a day off work once in a while. These people are scammers living in lala land.

If all he'd said was "I really value motherhood," there is no way it would have been some kind of reported incident. Jenny Slate is, by all accounts, a fairly normal, pleasant person. I just don't believe she'd report the incident to anyone if he said something that innocuous. I don't know what he said (and neither do you), but it definitely wasn't "I just really value motherhood."

Someone posted a comment of hers from when she had a Reddit account. She said that during her time on SNL she asked people to stop saying “now is the time for women in comedy.” She said it was patronizing to women. She didn’t want her gender to define her.

I have no problem with that. But she might have a sensitivity here that she spoke out about and that was addressed. Something that would never even be a blip is it weren’t for this crazy case.

Ok but again, look at how she handled it -- people were saying this thing she took issue with, so she would come back and say "please don't say that, it's patronizing." She didn't file an HR complaint. And I guarantee that the SNL writers room involves a lot more offensive and off-color jokes and comments than most film and TV sets. So again, I really struggle with believing that Heath said something totally innocuous and then Slate blew it way out of proportion and took it to HR. It just does not track at all with what I know about her as a person and the way she's conducted her career thus far. She's low key, no one has ever reported her as hard to work with, and she has a very broad and forgiving sense of humor. It just doesn't track that she flipped out about a mildly awkward statement.

I really do not know enough about Heath to know what he might have said. But I feel like I have a sense of Slate's personality and sense of humor and that makes me think he said something really off.

Jenny lasted one season on SNL which is absolutely not the norm. It sounded like she had a tumultuous time there and left on bad terms.

She said the f word on a live show which resulted in an FCC fine, and was let go after that. This is not the drama you think it is. She appears to be a lovely person from everything she did afterwards. But no, to you now she must be absolutely the enemy.

This sounds exactly like something her PR person would say. You sound ridiculous.

Okay. That was what I heard years ago. I just googled it and Slate herself says that she did not get fired for. sNL because of the f bomb, and that if she were a man people wouldn’t focus on that so much. She said she got fired because she didn’t do a good job, and she didn’t click or fit in. https://screenrant.com/why-jenny-slate-fired-snl/

So, yeah, she *definitely* sounds like the total jerk Team Baldoni is making her out to be. *golf clap*

You say in this comment that you don’t know
what he said, but then go on to say you definitely know what he didn’t say. lol.

I feel confident he didn't say "I really value motherhood" because that's a totally innocuous statement and I simply do not believe that an actress with zero history of diva-ish behavior on set would get so upset about that she would report it to HR. It makes no sense. Slate has been low key and non-litigious, I think it's unfair to assume she'd do something flatly ridiculous.

Zero history of diva behavior? She was literally whining in vivid detail about a luxury apt to her rich boss. She knew exactly what she was doing.

Come on, Jenny Slate is really low profile and not that big of a name and I have heard controversial things about her. There’s stuff out there about her physically abusing Chris Evans when they dated and I’m someone is not a particular fan. I just happened to have picked this up through celebrity gossip. So please don’t say she’s got a reputation as a normal person. Or that she has zero behavior issues on set, she is simply not that high profile of an actress.

We absolutely do not know if this is out of realm for her behavior or how many other HR complaints were filed on other sets that we’ve never heard of.

I have never heard anything about her physically abusing Chris Evans, wtf. Also, isn't Jenny Slate like 5 feet tall? And Chris Evans is... Captain America? That strains credulity, sorry.

Can you cite a single actual report of her being difficult to work with or displaying difficult or concerning behavior?

I love the sexist implications you're making. So because Jenny is 5 ft tall and Chris Evans is taller with muscles, that must mean she couldn't physically abuse him? Did we not read about Christian Obumseli who was beat and stabbed to death in Miami by his much smaller OF girlfriend? Does Jodi Arias ring a bell? This is absolutely asinine on your part.

There is zero evidence that Jenny Slate ever physically abused Chris Evans. Zero. What is asinine is you lodging that accusation against Slate based on nothing in order to discredit her. You are grotesque. I don't believe in hell but kind of wish I did because it would exist for people like you.

It's not an accusation when it's quoted directly from the horses' mouth. She states verbatim on the Anna Faris' podcast

"I have never hit anybody as much as Chris"
"I slapped him so much"
"I hit him so much"
"I came back from making our movie and starting hit some of our friends cause I hit him so much"
"I hit my husband and he was like "nobody likes that, you shouldn't hit people"[i]

And just for emphasis, she makes sure to state it several times so you know exactly in what context she was using it and when it happened. Self-admission is a b_1 tch. Sounds like a place in Hell is being reserved nicely for you and her.

You are taking something out of context as a gotcha. I remember that episode and she was clearly kidding/exaggerating for comic effect.

Jenny was talking about having to hit him as part of the movie they made together, they weren't even dating when the interview happened. Then she jokes about how she had to hit Chris so much for the movie that when she came back from making the movie she was doing it to friends and her husband, but it's a joke. She didn't actually abuse anyone.

Some of you are SO dishonest, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

So many actors/comedians left SNL after 1 season - Ben stiller, Damon wayons, Robert Downey jr, Martin short, Billy crystal, Sarah Silverman, Julia Lois Dreyfus- I don’t think that’s indicative of anything. People are really reaching here.

Having lost family members to domestic violence this is incredibly insensitive yo joke about. Way beyond anything JB has been accused of saying. The hypocrisy in the BL camp is unbelievable.

lol no. Read her interview on this. That was on her first show and she lasted a full season. The reason she said for being fired was that she wasn’t sure but she never really fit in there and just never really clicked. We have no freaking clue what happened there.

And that is the point. no one can say she hasn’t dad in set disputes or ever filed an HR complaint -we simply don’t know that she has or has not.

Most of these things are not made public. You might as well make the assumption that your neighbor has never filed an HR complaint. You just don’t know. Most bad behavior on set is revealed through much later interviews by actresses or their memoirs or something. Very few official filings floating around. so for people to just say she’s never had a problem on set is silly. We have no way of knowing.

[Anonymous]

Team truth here. I don’t understand why people are even feeling the need to drag Jenny Slate. What did she do wrong? We don’t even have any context around the complaint/incident.

+1, watching people try to tear down Jenny Slate and discredit her based on absolutely nothing is really opening my eyes, frankly. At least with Lively there was some behavior that I absolutely think was problematic -- I remember when that interview with the Norwegian journalist made the rounds last summer, I very much agreed she was over the line in the interview.

But this stuff about Slate is so obviously people fishing for something to take out of context to discredit her with. It's unnerving. This is not an okay way to treat a woman just because she made an allegation of inappropriate behavior on set. To me it is revealing the degree to which the pro-JB crowd maybe just really hate women and love trashing them.

They were in a Gifted together. He was the uncle of a student and she was a teacher. I don’t recall her hitting him in the live and I can’t find anything online about that either.

First I was told I had "no evidence". Now it was "out of context" and she was "kidding" and "exaggerating". No, she wasn't. Repeating five times that you hit someone isn't remotely comedic. And the fact that she had to quote her husband telling her that she shouldn't be hitting people and that nobody likes it, shows clear intent of action and that it wasn't a "comedic" act.

Pay attention people. Reverse the roles with Baldoni and you'll see the parallels and hypocrisies of the defenses being made here.

Look, it is a controversy. That is a fact. Someone posted that no one had ever heard anything bad about Jenny and therefore she could never make an erroneous HR complaint. And the point is we simply don’t know. She had a low profile she not that famous. But they’re absolutely have been things mentioned about her. Her firing from SNL was pretty hazy. It could be a big nothing burger and frankly probably is. Do I really think there’s any merit to the fact that she abused Chris Evans? No. But the point to say that we absolutely know that she’s never had any issues is just not true.

You are twisting things. I was the one that brought up snl. I certainly am not implying that she had a horrible experience there or didn’t get along with anyone, but to say that we know what happened is insane. We simply don’t know. She in her own words did not have a great experience there. We don’t know why.

It’s ridiculous that you can’t see that this works both ways. You are saying that because you’ve never heard anything bad about Jenny, if she filed an HR complaint against Jamie Heath he must be a really bad person and done something really wrong. and other people are simply saying, no there are two sides to the story and you can’t vouch for Jenny Slate any more than I can vouch for heath.

But this stuff about Slate is so obviously people fishing for something to take out of context to discredit her with. It's unnerving. This is not an okay way to treat a woman just because she made an allegation of inappropriate behavior on set. To me it is revealing the degree to which the pro-JB crowd maybe just really hate women and love trashing them.

Nobody's pro-Baldoni. More like pro-truth and fairness. When you decide to be wicked and hijack someone else's creative endeavor and then after getting everything you wanted try to slander and destroy him with claims of sexual harrassment, then bring in friends and associates to help your devious acts, everything is off the table. Everything you said and did that was problematic will be called to question, including your witnesses.

Exactly. There is definitely a history of women making complaints about men and being dismissed as being difficult or untruthful. So we can acknowledge that for Jenny.,

But we also must acknowledge that there is a history of white women being uncomfortable around black men for seemingly innocuous behavior, and reporting them to authority, whether HR or the police.

No good deed goes unpunished in Hollyweird. Pit of vipers.

There are millions of working mothers at dead-end jobs who wish their bosses would merely give them a day off work once in a while. These people are scammers living in lala land.

If all he'd said was "I really value motherhood," there is no way it would have been some kind of reported incident. Jenny Slate is, by all accounts, a fairly normal, pleasant person. I just don't believe she'd report the incident to anyone if he said something that innocuous. I don't know what he said (and neither do you), but it definitely wasn't "I just really value motherhood."

You say in this comment that you don’t know
what he said, but then go on to say you definitely know what he didn’t say. lol.

I feel confident he didn't say "I really value motherhood" because that's a totally innocuous statement and I simply do not believe that an actress with zero history of diva-ish behavior on set would get so upset about that she would report it to HR. It makes no sense. Slate has been low key and non-litigious, I think it's unfair to assume she'd do something flatly ridiculous.

Zero history of diva behavior? She was literally whining in vivid detail about a luxury apt to her rich boss. She knew exactly what she was doing.

Come on, Jenny Slate is really low profile and not that big of a name and I have heard controversial things about her. There’s stuff out there about her physically abusing Chris Evans when they dated and I’m someone is not a particular fan. I just happened to have picked this up through celebrity gossip. So please don’t say she’s got a reputation as a normal person. Or that she has zero behavior issues on set, she is simply not that high profile of an actress.

We absolutely do not know if this is out of realm for her behavior or how many other HR complaints were filed on other sets that we’ve never heard of.

I have never heard anything about her physically abusing Chris Evans, wtf. Also, isn't Jenny Slate like 5 feet tall? And Chris Evans is... Captain America? That strains credulity, sorry.

Can you cite a single actual report of her being difficult to work with or displaying difficult or concerning behavior?

I love the sexist implications you're making. So because Jenny is 5 ft tall and Chris Evans is taller with muscles, that must mean she couldn't physically abuse him? Did we not read about Christian Obumseli who was beat and stabbed to death in Miami by his much smaller OF girlfriend? Does Jodi Arias ring a bell? This is absolutely asinine on your part.

There is zero evidence that Jenny Slate ever physically abused Chris Evans. Zero. What is asinine is you lodging that accusation against Slate based on nothing in order to discredit her. You are grotesque. I don't believe in hell but kind of wish I did because it would exist for people like you.

It's not an accusation when it's quoted directly from the horses' mouth. She states verbatim on the Anna Faris' podcast

"I have never hit anybody as much as Chris"
"I slapped him so much"
"I hit him so much"
"I came back from making our movie and starting hit some of our friends cause I hit him so much"
"I hit my husband and he was like "nobody likes that, you shouldn't hit people"[i]

And just for emphasis, she makes sure to state it several times so you know exactly in what context she was using it and when it happened. Self-admission is a b_1 tch. Sounds like a place in Hell is being reserved nicely for you and her.

You are taking something out of context as a gotcha. I remember that episode and she was clearly kidding/exaggerating for comic effect.

First I was told I had "no evidence". Now it was "out of context" and she was "kidding" and "exaggerating". No, she wasn't. Repeating five times that you hit someone isn't remotely comedic. And the fact that she had to quote her husband telling her that she shouldn't be hitting people and that nobody likes it, shows clear intent of action and that it wasn't a "comedic" act.

Pay attention people. Reverse the roles with Baldoni and you'll see the parallels and hypocrisies of the defenses being made here.

You did take it out of context though. Because the context is that Slate and Evans did that interview together. He's sitting right next to her when she says those things. They are both laughing about it. It's quite clear that the hitting is a joke between them, not some abusive relationship. It's also clear she's not hitting him in anger but like slapping him on the arm as a joke.

Also they weren't even together when that interview happened. Slate was married to someone else and they were just costars doing promotional stuff for their movie. The reason that interview is controversial is because Slate then got divorced and she and Evans wound up together and in the interview it's clear they have crazy chemistry and people have speculated that they were already together and Slate cheated on her husband. I have no idea. It's true they have chemistry. But on the podcast when they talk about Jenny hitting him, Anna also makes comments about him "poking" her and just them being very physical with each other. And then they joke about how Jenny hits him all the time, but when you have the context of them at the time being "friends" and her being married and then later she divorces and they date, you get the vibe that they weren't fighting at all, that she wasn't hitting him and he wasn't poking her, they were super into each other and using this joking, friendly "slaps" and "pokes" as an excuse to touch each other.

It *is* controversial but not because anyone actually thinks Slate physically abused Evans. No one things that, including Chris Evans. It's controversial because they were on the podcast as "friends" and then later they were much more than friends and they had all this physical contact during the interview that they pass off as friendly "rough housing" (that's the word Evans uses to explain their situation and compares it to him and his siblings when they were kids) which it turned out was probably just foreplay.

To cast that as "Jenny Slate physically abused Chris Evans" is intentionally misleading if not an outright lie. I can't tell if you are doing it on purpose knowing that the goal here is to try and make Slate look bad so the people don't believe that she could have been truthful in reporting that Heath said something inappropriate to her, or if you are just parroting what some TikToker (who was honestly probably paid by Baldoni's PR people) said. But it's wrong. It's out of context and doesn't even make sense when you understand the context.

What is more likely?

Blake Lively and Jenny Slate, two actresses with very different reputations, personalities, and sense of humor, both decided to accuse Baldoni and Heath of inappropriate, harassing behavior on the set of this movie because, after all, women love to lie about being harassed and also women who make SH accusations are treated so great and it goes very well for them. And both women specifically complained about inappropriate comments/behavior concerning women as mothers, which is a very specific way of making inappropriate comments to women.

OR

A bunch of inappropriate stuff happened on that set and at least two actresses were bothered by it and made complaints about it.
