[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve worked these junkets and in defense of the celebrities, they are mindless assembly lines and the reporters do not always ask the best questions. Sure she was rude but with the the “bump” reporter gave to make if about herself? Was Blake supposed to know she was infertile? Ridiculous. [/quote] Of course not. Blake was supposed to play the game. She’s being paid lot of money to do that. She didn’t. This interview didn’t get out earlier because the movie totally flopped. You are an actor. Act polite. If you want to play feminist than you need to wait for a bad question. She didn’t get one she got appropriate questions and she mishandled them. I just saw a clip of Benedict Cumberbun or whatever his name is and Kiera knightley do an interview and the male interviewer stated by telling Kiera (who looked gorgeous) that she “looked worn out.” Benedict was clearly shocked and said did you just tell this beautiful woman she looks worn out? and Kiera goes “yea?!! F**k you!” Kiera was rude but it’s being celebrated because she stood up for herself and clapped back at a rude question. She acted appropriately. Blake did not. [/quote] +1 Blake comes off as the pretty, popular woman and her sycophant friend ganging up on another woman for sport. The interviewer made a *minor* faux pas by saying "bump" instead of just "congrats on the baby." The interviewer is also a non-native English speaker and a woman, so deserves the benefit of the doubt regarding what is, at worst, a slightly more invasive comment.[/quote] If the reporter is truly infertile as she claims; she should know commenting on a pregnant woman’s body is inappropriate. Full stop. And to harbor resentment 8 years later? Yeah, no. [/quote] Sure, it's not appropriate. The interviewer is Finnish and was likely repeating a phrase she'd heard other English-speakers use and did not know it could be considered inappropriate. The resentment she harbors is for Lively treating her like garbage for the rest of the interview. The interviewer made a faux pas. Lively went for blood. I totally get why the experience stick with her.[/quote] I am a native English speaker and took the interviewer as meaning nothing more than "congrats on your pregnancy, which you publicly announced." The response was frankly shocking. And so instant, too. [/quote]
