[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a great thread in popculturechat showing how the baldoni team campaigned against Lively. The text images are from the court exhibits.

Bad look for Baldoni and all including Jameela Jamil.

I don't know who that is. Context? [/quote]

Jameela Jamil is a British actress/podcast host. She was in the show the Good Place but hasn't done much else in terms of acting in the US. At this point she's better known for hosting a podcast and being outspoken on a lot of issues, including celebrity, nepotism, and feminism.

Jen Abel reps JJ and some of their text exchanges wound up in discovery for the Lively/Baldoni things. I thought it was kind of weird because JJ is clearly just gossiping with Abel about it, they are both trashing Lively, etc. But it actually might have some relevancy for the case because, as I said, JJ hosts a podcast and also talks a lot about celebrity, and one could argue that Abel sharing not-public details about the conflict between Wayfarer and Lively with someone in that position could be part of a campaign to damage Lively's rep within the industry. I personally think that's a stretch because I don't think many people in the industry take her seriously at all and she's just not influential. Plus I don't know that she's ever weighed in publicly on the Lively/Baldoni thing. But I could be wrong.[/quote]

Thanks for explaining.

I don't know that anything will come of it as far as seeding content if JJ never actually spoke on it in public, and her name is not familiar as far the lists of media influencers disclosed in RFPs. The Lively team does seem to be taking an angle that disparaging Lively privately to others was also part of retaliation. They mentioned at the hearing that Baldoni and Heath were talking crap about Lively to Hoover, and Hoover didn't like it, to which the judge retorted that the disparagement clearly didn't work.[/quote]
JJ is also a client with Baldoni’s PR team, so that’s another bit of relevance, at least to the landscape of it all. To me it takes the wind out of the sails about criticism with Libely texting with her friends. Meanwhile, Baldoni reps are like utilizing their client base against Lively? And Miss JJ, who presents herself as a feminist as gleefully attacking Lively…[/quote]
