All they see is a conventionally attractive blonde in a lovely princess dress on a red carpet. It pops up on their feed or their news and they go: "Who's that? Blake Lively. OK".

So this person boosts her profile just by showing up. You might criticize her for various shenanigans, or say she's not that beautiful, or has not landed important roles, but most people aren't that picky, to be honest! She looks fine, and I bet she's more attractive than most of YOU. I have no dog in this fight, I'm a short Asian lady

And since Baldoni doesn't walk red carpets of that magnitude and has no access to that level of exposure... he's not as well known to the general public.

To understand how this plays out, you guys need to step back from your microscopic view and take in the macro of the general public.



You clearly don't understand the importance of social media to celebrities or why Lively brought this case. She is unpopular and there is a lot of negative social media about her. You may think that doesn't matter but she does. The case exists only because she refused to believe that there could be that much organic dislike of her. Turns out she was wrong.


That people let Blake Lively bother them that much is more an indictment of them than her.


Again, clueless. Blake is the one who cares, as do all celebrities. There is little hiring demand for unpopular actors.


You mean the people who screech on TikTok for years about this actually don't care?

A sad commentary on our society. I can understand hating Blake, but not cheering for this guy.


It's a David and Goliath thing and has been since day 1. People like to root for the underdog.


It's more than that, she went nuclear on him for no good reason, that was a choice. The whole case against him is that he used the word sexy inappropriately or some such. It's just ridiculous, and an embarrassment to women who legitimately are sexually harassed by their supervisors.

One good development from this case was Liman's holding that disagreements about how to film an intimate or nude scene should be handled by contract remedies and not sexual harassment statutes. There was already existing precedent but its good, going forward, for there to be clear precedent.

It’s not enough for them though. They need adoration and they’re not getting it. Losing followers, losing roles, not being adored by the public, being mocked for going to SNL, they don’t want any of that. They care.



Because they are narcissists

Sure, the manosphere loves him. Like Donald Trump.


Everyone I know who hates her the most is a Kamala voting progressive feminist or gay man. Your radar is really off.


I'm white but I've noticed that Blake is very unpopular with the black community, at least on social media.


I'm a white liberal feminist and can't stand her but yeah, she goes way back with the black community who were more aware of her plantation wedding, slavery fashion, and blackface ways going back 10+ years.


Don’t forget her LA face Oakland booty debacle. Seems quaint now.

Yeah, I’m not a fan of Justin, but he didn’t deserve all this.

The Met Gala seemed a miss. She can’t have it both ways. She can’t say she did this to stand up for women and then just act as if the case is done without so much as a word, a donation somewhere? Anything. And then go prance around at the Met Gala and snap at the attendants for holding her dress wrong. I mean, she clearly can, but she won’t be taken seriously after that and she won’t come off as anything, but tone deaf.

Anyway, it’s being reported she didn’t go to any after parties. She knows where she stands at least.
