[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lol that some of you don't understand that employers ARE regulated, and of course there are questions you are not allowed to ask an employee, or ask about an employee. What in earth???[/quote]

Whose "regulating" Blake Lively? Her trainer is a private fitness coach and wasn't under the jurisdiction of the union or the studio. Some of you are just saying anything at this point. Pipe down.[/quote]

The trainer is not accusing Blake of anything. There's no indication Lively has ever harassed any of her employees, but as an employer she is subject to the same regulations as any employer.

And correct, the trainer didn't work for IEWU or Wayfarer, making it totally inappropriate to ask the trainer to disclose private info about Blake.

Glad you are finally figuring this out.[/quote]

I’m the PP who was trying to explain regulated industries to you and how private medical or financial info can’t be disclosed legally in certain situations without the clients approval. Like HIPAA laws. But this was not one of them. But you clearly don’t get it. You’re either a complete moron or purposely trying to confuse issues. Anyway, done. No one will care if JB asked Bls weight, and the fact that she is trying to make this a legal issue is truly pathetic.

She’s got nothing and should settle [/quote]

As has been explained multiple times, the trainer almost certainly has an NDA with Blake and Ryan and would never be able to disclose her weight. It doesn't matter that the trainer is not in a regulated industry -- if you have celebrity clients who value privacy, then you absolutely are not free to just blab sensitive personal info to anyone who asks. The trainer's NDA probably even specifies that he may not share info about weight or weight-loss with others. And Baldoni absolutely should have known this.

And yes, in harassment cases, asking about personal info like an employee's weight could be considered part of a campaign of harassment. Especially in an industry like Hollywood where actresses come under a lot of scrutiny for their weight and where actresses have been denied roles or fired for their weight. If they show that Baldoni and/or others at Wayfarer were pressuring Lively about her weight and losing baby weight prior to filming, this would absolutely contribute to proving sexual harassment.

The trainer’s NDA is with Blake, not Baldoni. Baldoni can ask any question he feels is essential to his training. He would’ve asked the same question had it been a trainer with no connection to Blake at all. Any good trainer could look at Blake and estimate her weight based on height and appearance. It’s not that deep. She’s clearly deeply insecure. [/quote]
