[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So there’s this extended interview that JB did with Access Hollywood (you can find it on YouTube) about six months ago. He’s clearly trying to throw props to Blake and not let on that there is this huge rift because this was recorded the day after the premiere when they made him and his family view the movie in the basement.

But at about the 16:30 mark he is asked about Taylor Swift’s role in casting of young Lily and he says he “brought in her casting tape to Blake AND TAYLOR…and they were both like ‘Yes! Her!’ —And that’s a true story!”

But the news article (TMZ?) today insists that Taylor only met Justin that one time at RR and BL’s place. And she had nothing to do with the movie.
Seems a weird thing for JB to lie about (but also weird that he followed the statement with “and that’s a true story!”) Obviously someone repeated the story to the Young Lily actress though because she revealed that someone told her that Taylor Swift handpicked her.

So either JB and maybe BL are lying about Taylor being there and choosing or approving of young Lily casting or Taylor’s sources are misinformed.[/quote]

[b]That anecdote is super odd because it makes it seem like JB is lying, either in that interview about Taylor being involved in the casting, or in his lawsuit about his interactions with Taylor. I'm inclined to think the anecdote about the casting is a lie (some kind of "lore" that they decided to pretend was true for some reason) because the texts with Lively in his lawsuit really seem to indicate he was a bit overwhelmed/intimidated by meeting Taylor at Lively's apartment.[/b]

That's just odd.[/quote]

I bet he gave the tape to BL to watch and BL came back the next day and gushed about how “TAYLOR and I both love this girl!”
So maybe even JB believes this to be “a true story” because he knows BL is friends with TS and so why would he have had any reason to think BL wasn’t being honest about watching the tape with Taylor….
He could have been so genuinely enthusiastic about it himself that maybe HE was the one to tell Isabella Ferrerra (the young Lily actress) that even Taylor Swift wanted her for the role?

I feel like it could have been a lie that he didn’t know was a lie.
And I feel like BL could have just been name-dropping early on as a demo of her powerful connections. And maybe she never thought it would be retold.[/quote]
