Being a true domestic abuse survivor. Nobody would act like these women are acting. 🎭 It actually makes me sick to my stomach how she’s promoting her hair line and another film that is a comedy (Deadpool and Wolverine). There going around talking about DV and then going into there bit about the other film. It’s disgusting. They are disrespectful. How dare this writer of the book go along with this fake facade. It’s gross and a slap in the face to women who have survived Domestic Violence.

And also, noticed how right after Scarlett J calls out a few different interviewers for asking only her questions about fashion rather than the character she portrays, all of a sudden Blake Lively is trying to have a similar "ask her more" moment. Only its so obviously her trying to compete for attention
As someone who has experience DV... My therapist recommended a year ago I read it ends with us and it starts with us.. it touched me so much.. it's really disappointing to see how Blake is handling this..
Such a shame smh I used to like her too. Justin is the best he’s handling everything like a true professional and still speaks highly of Blake while she’s being a mean girl behind his back.
How do you know how they parent their kids? Because of what they put out there in public media... that they have the perfect marriage and perfect family. Come on... you know better than that. Don't ever look at a celebrity marriage and say "couple goals"... no they are not perfect.... even though that is what their PR team has been trying to ram down our throats for the past few years 😂. Love your channel anyway xx
I think it’s interesting from a sociological perspective- why do humans choose to seemingly arbitrarily gang up on one person, over another? Why her, why now- when so many others have done bad things, which people have ignored, justified or forgotten in a day? What drives the hive mind to highlight certain things?
@@LittleLulubeeI don’t think it’s that at first, definitely becomes a mob mentality. I don’t care about her, the film or that other dude but I can’t deny I was weirded out when I realized the film is about DV cause the trailers look like a romance. That’s where the screwup is and then it’s just Blake’s bad behavior catching up to her
This is how the business of Hollywood works. A lesser/unknown creative (usually the screenwriter) comes up with an orginal idea, a bigger named celebrity with money and juice becomes interested in the project and completely takes it over in product.Original Creator is pushed aside and completely forgotten, maybe gets an Orginal Story By credit or a pittance of money if they're lucky, or settles something out of court. So what? This is the way it has always been and it always will be. This is how they get movies made. They steal ideas.
I was gobsmacked by this too. I’m not surprised blake is trying to get everyone to cancel him tho, she’s discarding him and learned from the best narcissist around (Taylor swift)
@@karenbowen4760 the narcissist abuse cycle involves love bombing (new or former targets as a source for the narcissist) and then discarding them. One example would be Taylor Swifts “best friends” who rotate each year depending on whoever is famous. ie taking Ice Spice to the Super Bowl. If you look over her history as a celeb she is constantly doing this with people, befriending/being photographed as if she is very close to people and discarding them. One example could be older celebs she used to appear very close to that she now has no contact with. An example surfaced a few weeks ago online of Taylor Swift having a security guard remove someone sitting next to her at an event so she could be closer to and photographed with Demi Lovato (who was literally sat right behind her and in talking distance). She is calculated with who she is seen with. Across the past 10 years you will find her always at events with the “it person” that year, yet rarely ever again unless they too stay relevant and help her image (narcissists number one priority- so people like Selena Gomez and blame lively at the moment). Another example is the “friends” she writes songs for each year changing. The relationships seem to cycle through whoever serves a purpose to her and her image. Obviously none of this is proof and it’s all my take, I’m not claiming it as hard fact it’s just interesting and could be possible. Another thing would be her “chart blocking” smaller creators, Narcissist like being in the limelight, so whenever a new artist releases a song and she decides to drop a variant of her old song to remain the center of attention- this is a very narcissistic thing to do, narcs are under developed emotionally so, like a child, they use protest behaviors to get attention. Another example could be the lyrics of her recent album. You will not find a single song that does not paint her as a victim, going as far to dramatically portray the events in an “artistic way” but the Thank You Aimee song is a perfect example of a narcissist portraying a victim constantly. As one of the MOST privileged and wealthy women on the planet- she is a victim and never victor in this song and the entire album. Remember she is a BILLIONAIRE, but according to her lyrics she is a victim/fragile/weak/bullied only (how a narcissist reframed reality, despite this being far from the truth). Some lyrics of that song include: the opposer “threatens to push me down the stairs at our school” (Taylor is a victim). “it was always the same searing pain” (everyone is always hurting her), “you were throwing punches” (again, she is literally a victim being bullied here, being thrown punches and receiving hate), “ I can't forgive the way you made me feel” (a narc will always choose a narrative of YOU hurt ME, over anything else), “As the blood was gushing. But I can't forget the way you made me heal” (she’s literally bleeding on the floor, a discarded victim), “it wasn't a fair fight, or a clean kill “Each time that Aimee stomped across my grave. And then she wrote headlines in the local paper. Laughing at each baby step I'd take” (her and her career/image- the only thing a narc cares about - were metaphorically killed according to the narc, despite writing this at a time when her career has never been bigger and arguably at the time this song was about she was also still famous and thriving…. Basically the entire song goes like this, & album for that matter. It’s exhausting and again reminds me of a narcissistic tendencies. I hope this helps
@@karenbowen4760 Type in Taylor and narcissist on youtube and you’ll find videos where people analyse her body language and behaviour, including an actual diagnosed narcissist called HG Tudor who is able to tell who are other narcissists. He says she is what is known as a Greater Narcissist, where she makes herself seem like a really great person etc, and all of the adoration she gets fuels her sense of power and ego. Once you see it you can’t unsee
I doubt it. I think the main reason why people focus so much on celebrities is because it’s a distraction from their own lives and relationships, especially when there’s drama. We are spectators and hungry for constant entertainment. That is why looking inward and practicing meditation or mindfulness is becoming extremely hard.
In this day and age, I honestly have no idea why anybody would still be a fan of celebrities as people. I understand being a fan of their work and respecting their craft, but I would have thought that the past 10 years have taught people that the vast majority of celebrities are elite narcissists who don't deserve the pedestal that they are frequently put on. It's just odd to see people like Brett still gush over these people while expressing disappointment with "I was such a fan of X person until this thing just happened." You guys should have stopped idealizing these people years ago.
I'd give the audience in this situation some grace: mediaplay is extremely detailed and the average Joe doesn't have the time to examine all the ins and outs of these carefully curated images. also I'd argue it's in our human nature to idolize things: that's why Christians refer to those moments as a "God-shaped" hole. Hopefully this incident wakes some people up from blatant celebrity worship.
No, not many people become a millionaire by being nice, and even fewer stay nice while being a millionaire. My great grandma received a few million dollars when my great grandpa died, they both were lovely people if not rough around the edges, and my great grandma still is a lovely woman.
Honestly never cared for Blake, she always seemed like a fake nice girl and glorified socialite... like Serena basically. I never really got why Ryan went for her as she also isn't attractive so I just assumed she must be nice and funny more than I've seen. Which tbf I don't really dive into celeb life much but this one has me interested 😂
Omg😳 they are horrible bullies!!! I used to like them 😢 unfortunately most artists are like this not nice to each other 😢 speaking from experience, i know for sure
Woody Allen did not rape anyone. He was accused by a vindictive ex and acquitted by the justice system. He passed a polygraph test, and the investigation concluded the supposed victim in question was not sexually abused. Stop believing gossip and do your own research.
@v-22 you just said it yourself "they were false" exactly....so her working with him isn't her supporting a rapist then is it???? She ain't supporting a rapist if he was proved innocent, just like the other guy said that's what scary about being a man, if we get accused of rape or sexual assault even if we get proved innocent people still ain't going to believe us, that's why I don't even try to hit on girls and ask them out because it just isn't worth the fucking risks of picking the wrong person and having your life fucking ruined
Sorry Brett but you lived there in Hollywood…you should know that when a person gets to be as big as Blake Lively, that person isn’t really that great. And they are likely narcissistic.
@@sandysmith71I didn't realize that "likely" counted as a whole diagnostic. I guess with that kind of view, you can't go to the doctor if you "think" you're sick, since that would clearly be diagnosing yourself. Ignore all signs and tell yourself you're fine, right?
@@San-jx1zdBrett lies constantly. About her parents, her education. She gives no credit to the people who gave her everything. She a liar and a narcissist. If you can’t see that, you will eventually.
None of this is surprising. So many people saying ‘it breaks my heart’. Does it really? There’s so many other things that could potentially break my heart and thankfully this is not one of them.
It was a passion project for Justin. A low budget production based on a book that touched his heart and he wanted to turn it into a movie. He pitched it to Blake and Ryan with so much passion that they turned it into their movie and basically pushed him aside and it became The Blake Lively Show!
this is why i am all for youtubers getting their facts together before being quick to post a video for the views and just talking about the moment or tea of the week.
There are some actors and actresses where I hear the name announced for the film, and I will at least pay attention. Even if I really had no interest in the story concept, I might just watch to see what they do with it. Sometimes a script carries actors and vice versa, and sometimes an ensemble cast raises a product. Sometimes they have the complete opposite effect, and it's like watching a dumpster fire or a train wreck. Either way, I'm entertained. My point is that at no point have I ever heard Blake Lively's name attached to a project and thought, "Well now I have to see this." One way or the other, her husband moves the needle, but Blake? She's a telegenic actress that won't drag a production, but I don't see her as exciting. She's the celebrity equivalent of the BRAT diet-completely bland.
That's nothing shady or unusual. MOST of the time the largest actors in the film are also added as producers. It's because of how royalty payments and things work. It's why Alex Baldwin was a producer for rust. It's just a way of having more control over their image and it also gets them a larger cut of the money than just being in it. Often though the actors do very little on the production side other than attending a few meetings and signing a few more papers. 😂
This is exactly my thoughts about it too! As an author, if someone brought my book to the screen, despite the behind the scenes drama, I would be grateful that my book got made into a movie. Colleen Hoover is acting like Blake is the one who put her book in theaters when it was Justin Baldoni who made that happen and now Colleen doesn’t even at the very least follow him. It’s so weird.
It would have never grossed what it did if it wasn’t promoted and paired with the Deadpool marketing. They were able to use Deadpool marketing to filter directly into it ends with us. I bet the box on it ends with is is 50% higher having it come off the heels of Deadpool and the market pairing.
Both films almost tied for the largest box office sales weekends ever. When it comes to the awards season, Justin will get the recognition he deserves. He has also said that he is happy to let Blake and Ryan run with it because they are pros on how to do this stuff. They’re all good.
It's not all good just cause they all got what "they" wanted,, the main theme of the movie aren't discussed by the main actors , they rather discuss their "hair business" and other meagre topics, which is so disappointing and honestly shameful.
No something about the way they both were so involved in each others films was kinda odd to me. I love Blake, and some of the actors of the film did not outwardly say he was difficult to work with but basically…BUT it was HIS film, and on top of playing a disliked character he’s been pushed out. Idk how to feel but it did seem really strange to me.
Baldoni hired a crisis PR firm to help him out, after behavioral complaints were laid against him. They did their job, bringing her down in under 2 weeks 😮 You know how mad you have to be to return a product these days? Effort
They could have made “complaints” because he wasn’t ok with them trying to steal his movie and he said so and they decided to try and remove him so he hired a PR firm to help defend himself..
Domestic violence is something that no one really wants to talk about. I live through it. I have CPTD. I am now divorced . Also, Lupus; SLE ! Being emotionally, physically, mentally, psychologically and financially exhausted!!! Why do I always see things on my tv screen of filth. Porn, Pride Parades with children there, cursing,sexual content, everything but abused women ! Promoting alcohol which was one of the reasons things elevated. Covid really made it worse!!! I cried out for help but during covid everything was shut down! To think about a professional telling me to hold on ! This movie could have saved someone life but honestly alcohol, nail polish and hair products would have made it worse for me; this is a serious issue !!! To glamorize domestic violence, I barely was hanging on ! Just another slap in my face ! Yes, spitting in my face, pulling my hair all the way to the floor and thrower into walls. Why DV????? Why not call it what it is, Domestic Violence !!! Just hope that Justin would want to know that he got it right ! This has scared my heart for life. I kept saying, I am sorry ! I left and what ever he wanted he took. Barely, get any money from him. I must say if it had not been for the Lord I would not be here today ! It’s a man’s world!!!! I was afraid day and night ! Imagine, just how bad it could be and I still do not think no one could possibly do ! This should be made right because women are not strong as men and best not to fight back ! Ever had a gun put to your head. Blake, has four children and I hope she never has to endure with one of her children what I went through !
There was a show many years ago, some type of reality show that I remember seeing Blake on and she was having a conversation with her mom about how she was about to get a nose job. Her mother was so upset, crying she said but you won’t look like my Blakey. You’re beautiful why would you choose to look like someone else. Her mom seems sweet
How much money would the movie make if Blake was not a big part of the marketing campaign? Movies in this category rarely see this high of a box office. As long as the studios know of Justin’s involvement in the movie, he should have no problem securing more contracts.
I don’t think money is his ultimate goal. He makes movies for the content and quality. His others movies prove that. The fact he purchased the movie rights to this movie was one of the first bits of news I had heard when this all started.
There are many other good actresses they could have used and I’m a sure they would have had the pick of the bunch. Actually she wasn’t the best choice because although the film was brilliant. It’s hard to separate her from the character.
You’re a fan of her relationship with Ryan Reynolds? What a strange strange thing to be a “fan” of. I swear this chick gets weirder every time I see her
Anyone thought this feud is a stand to make money at the box office ? They can't play the romance card like Sidney Sweeny did with "Anyone but you" cause she is married so a beef in the second best choice!
When I was in high school in the 80’s, Blake Livleys mom was one of the most beautiful women on the big screen. Didn’t know till recently Blake was her daughter.
Justin is an amazing soul that spends his life on and off camera trying to make the world a better place. Blake is showing her true colors as someone who is all about Blake.
What Hollywood celebrities are doing is of zero importance to me. I literally could care less about what any celebrity does. They are no different or better than anyone else.
That’s what happens when you glaze one actress over your whole acting crew. Colleen’s decision to have Blake play this role was a bad decision but ofc she gotta make her self insert look like her favorite actress lol
Who are we kidding. The only reason anyone is talking about this movie is because she's involved. Otherwise it would have been buried in the Netflix algorithm.
Correction, the only reason anyone is talking about this movie is because she started drama. I've never heard of this book nor the author, and I had no clue this movie was even happening. My knowledge of Blake Lively a week ago was literally that she's Ryan Reynolds' wife and she used to be in that show Gossip Girl a long time ago. I wouldn't be surprised if that's all 95% of people know about her too.
Prolly the worst mistake he made which she definitely saw the opportunity and took advantage of it for herself now the dude who started it ain't getting no credit nor his money
can we also stop pretending that the book is some amazingly well done story about overcoming domestic violence?? movie aside, the book is genuinely terrible. colleen hoover is not a good writer and the tough subject matter was not even executed well or handled with grace!!! the movie drama is also bad but let’s not gloss over the bad source material either!
Her dad had a cabin in the little town that I grew up in, and everytime she came into town she treated people horribly rude, so I haven't been a fan of her for at least 15 years.
If the dude had all the rights and got “pushed out” there’s really only one thing to conclude, he’s a pushover… let’s stop making actors and movies out to be more than it is: just another business And no this is not an excuse for Blake’s behaviour but we’re all human so let’s not act pretentious here, you get a good deal, you take it and no one knows what happened behind closed doors, so let’s stop making a problem over something no one involved stipulated…
Justin plays the abuser but in reality he’s the abused.
I think that’s kind of the point. Most abusers were abused at some point. That’s why it’s usually generational.
@@annaburns2865 No, I don’t think you’re understanding. His character Ryle was the abuser but the actor Justin himself is being abused by Blake and the cast.

How do you know how they parent their kids? Because of what they put out there in public media... that they have the perfect marriage and perfect family. Come on... you know better than that. Don't ever look at a celebrity marriage and say "couple goals"... no they are not perfect.... even though that is what their PR team has been trying to ram down our throats for the past few years 😂. Love your channel anyway xx
No one asked you
100% agree
Ya, I don't look up to any celebrity because all we see is what we are allowed to see.
I used to think jada and will had a perfect marriage 🤣🤣
@@addisoncaudillo9095 I was afraid to go there 😂
It’s the popular crowd showing its power, and at the moment Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds are the king and queen.
suddenly hiring the same crisis management team that handled Johnny Depp and Amber Heard made a lot of sense. The victim is being called the abuser
He should sue her for whatever he paid for the rights
We humans choose the weirdest things to care about.
Cheesy comment
Agreed. This is a none story
I think it’s interesting from a sociological perspective- why do humans choose to seemingly arbitrarily gang up on one person, over another? Why her, why now- when so many others have done bad things, which people have ignored, justified or forgotten in a day? What drives the hive mind to highlight certain things?
@@LittleLulubeeI don’t think it’s that at first, definitely becomes a mob mentality. I don’t care about her, the film or that other dude but I can’t deny I was weirded out when I realized the film is about DV cause the trailers look like a romance. That’s where the screwup is and then it’s just Blake’s bad behavior catching up to her
It’s really just western culture. It has zero effect on the real world.
Never heard of either of them. Thank God I don’t follow the masses. 🙄
Justin obtained the rights, his production company is part of it, he is producer, director and actor of the movie. 😂
Proving once again that women who've never been hit truly have no empathy for those of us who have.
A wise man once said "That's rough, buddy."

Poor sokka
But first... I must finish my roast duck
This is how the business of Hollywood works. A lesser/unknown creative (usually the screenwriter) comes up with an orginal idea, a bigger named celebrity with money and juice becomes interested in the project and completely takes it over in product.Original Creator is pushed aside and completely forgotten, maybe gets an Orginal Story By credit or a pittance of money if they're lucky, or settles something out of court. So what? This is the way it has always been and it always will be. This is how they get movies made. They steal ideas.
To be honest, 😊I am not surprised with Hollywood actors and actresses
There are a few good ones Keanu Reeves for example nobody has anything bad to say about him
I was gobsmacked by this too. I’m not surprised blake is trying to get everyone to cancel him tho, she’s discarding him and learned from the best narcissist around (Taylor swift)
I’m not necessarily disagreeing with you but what evidence do you have that Taylor Swift is a narcissist? By the way I’m not a big Taylor Swift fan.
@@karenbowen4760 the narcissist abuse cycle involves love bombing (new or former targets as a source for the narcissist) and then discarding them. One example would be Taylor Swifts “best friends” who rotate each year depending on whoever is famous. ie taking Ice Spice to the Super Bowl. If you look over her history as a celeb she is constantly doing this with people, befriending/being photographed as if she is very close to people and discarding them. One example could be older celebs she used to appear very close to that she now has no contact with. An example surfaced a few weeks ago online of Taylor Swift having a security guard remove someone sitting next to her at an event so she could be closer to and photographed with Demi Lovato (who was literally sat right behind her and in talking distance). She is calculated with who she is seen with. Across the past 10 years you will find her always at events with the “it person” that year, yet rarely ever again unless they too stay relevant and help her image (narcissists number one priority- so people like Selena Gomez and blame lively at the moment). Another example is the “friends” she writes songs for each year changing. The relationships seem to cycle through whoever serves a purpose to her and her image. Obviously none of this is proof and it’s all my take, I’m not claiming it as hard fact it’s just interesting and could be possible. Another thing would be her “chart blocking” smaller creators, Narcissist like being in the limelight, so whenever a new artist releases a song and she decides to drop a variant of her old song to remain the center of attention- this is a very narcissistic thing to do, narcs are under developed emotionally so, like a child, they use protest behaviors to get attention. Another example could be the lyrics of her recent album. You will not find a single song that does not paint her as a victim, going as far to dramatically portray the events in an “artistic way” but the Thank You Aimee song is a perfect example of a narcissist portraying a victim constantly. As one of the MOST privileged and wealthy women on the planet- she is a victim and never victor in this song and the entire album. Remember she is a BILLIONAIRE, but according to her lyrics she is a victim/fragile/weak/bullied only (how a narcissist reframed reality, despite this being far from the truth). Some lyrics of that song include: the opposer “threatens to push me down the stairs at our school” (Taylor is a victim). “it was always the same searing pain” (everyone is always hurting her), “you were throwing punches” (again, she is literally a victim being bullied here, being thrown punches and receiving hate), “ I can't forgive the way you made me feel” (a narc will always choose a narrative of YOU hurt ME, over anything else), “As the blood was gushing. But I can't forget the way you made me heal” (she’s literally bleeding on the floor, a discarded victim), “it wasn't a fair fight, or a clean kill “Each time that Aimee stomped across my grave. And then she wrote headlines in the local paper. Laughing at each baby step I'd take” (her and her career/image- the only thing a narc cares about - were metaphorically killed according to the narc, despite writing this at a time when her career has never been bigger and arguably at the time this song was about she was also still famous and thriving…. Basically the entire song goes like this, & album for that matter. It’s exhausting and again reminds me of a narcissistic tendencies. I hope this helps
@@karenbowen4760 I would say she's more like what you would call a vampire
@@karenbowen4760 Type in Taylor and narcissist on youtube and you’ll find videos where people analyse her body language and behaviour, including an actual diagnosed narcissist called HG Tudor who is able to tell who are other narcissists. He says she is what is known as a Greater Narcissist, where she makes herself seem like a really great person etc, and all of the adoration she gets fuels her sense of power and ego. Once you see it you can’t unsee
@@evap.5121 so it's about the color of her skin? Huh
This should continue until apologies are made to those that have been treated so cruelly.
So glad you covered this!
One day, celebrities will just be people with jobs who do them poorly like the rest of us and no one will give a 💩
Exactly.
I doubt it. I think the main reason why people focus so much on celebrities is because it’s a distraction from their own lives and relationships, especially when there’s drama. We are spectators and hungry for constant entertainment. That is why looking inward and practicing meditation or mindfulness is becoming extremely hard.
Even regular people have performance reviews.
I remember you wanting to dig deeper into this whole saga.. part 2 perhaps?😂😁 love your show btw ❤
Awww Brett! You are so beautiful but in this reel you really look stunning 😊😊😊😊 I'm big fan of yours.
Hugs from Mexico.
In this day and age, I honestly have no idea why anybody would still be a fan of celebrities as people. I understand being a fan of their work and respecting their craft, but I would have thought that the past 10 years have taught people that the vast majority of celebrities are elite narcissists who don't deserve the pedestal that they are frequently put on. It's just odd to see people like Brett still gush over these people while expressing disappointment with "I was such a fan of X person until this thing just happened." You guys should have stopped idealizing these people years ago.
I'd give the audience in this situation some grace: mediaplay is extremely detailed and the average Joe doesn't have the time to examine all the ins and outs of these carefully curated images. also I'd argue it's in our human nature to idolize things: that's why Christians refer to those moments as a "God-shaped" hole. Hopefully this incident wakes some people up from blatant celebrity worship.
Blake Lively is such a mean girl idk how anyone stands her 😂 and Ryan? hes a great deadpool, but nobody becomes a billionaire by being a nice guy 👀
No one laughed
No, not many people become a millionaire by being nice, and even fewer stay nice while being a millionaire.
My great grandma received a few million dollars when my great grandpa died, they both were lovely people if not rough around the edges, and my great grandma still is a lovely woman.
@johnmcwick1 *billionaire* my dude, with a B.
@Zeldawrld wasn't trying to make u laugh, but do you feel better? did it help? or is this vibe your standard setting? 🤡🤡
@@blah914 gosh, sorry. I absolutely misread that and then ran with it.
Yeah there is not enough billionaires to say there are some nice ones.
Honestly never cared for Blake, she always seemed like a fake nice girl and glorified socialite... like Serena basically. I never really got why Ryan went for her as she also isn't attractive so I just assumed she must be nice and funny more than I've seen. Which tbf I don't really dive into celeb life much but this one has me interested 😂
Omg😳 they are horrible bullies!!! I used to like them 😢 unfortunately most artists are like this not nice to each other 😢 speaking from experience, i know for sure
She worked for Woo dy Allen. There's nothing worse than supporting a ra pist.
I think the other dramas are irrelevant in comparison.
Woody Allen did not rape anyone. He was accused by a vindictive ex and acquitted by the justice system. He passed a polygraph test, and the investigation concluded the supposed victim in question was not sexually abused. Stop believing gossip and do your own research.
i thought he wasn't guilty? no hate or anything but I thought the rumors and accusations where false?
@AllThePages129 they were false, but public perception is what .atters, isn't it?
@@v-22 this is why it's terrifying being a man
@v-22 you just said it yourself "they were false" exactly....so her working with him isn't her supporting a rapist then is it???? She ain't supporting a rapist if he was proved innocent, just like the other guy said that's what scary about being a man, if we get accused of rape or sexual assault even if we get proved innocent people still ain't going to believe us, that's why I don't even try to hit on girls and ask them out because it just isn't worth the fucking risks of picking the wrong person and having your life fucking ruined
Sorry Brett but you lived there in Hollywood…you should know that when a person gets to be as big as Blake Lively, that person isn’t really that great. And they are likely narcissistic.
Just like Brett.
Wow you diagnosed her ? That label is over used .
@@woooooooo9061literally how?
@@sandysmith71I didn't realize that "likely" counted as a whole diagnostic. I guess with that kind of view, you can't go to the doctor if you "think" you're sick, since that would clearly be diagnosing yourself. Ignore all signs and tell yourself you're fine, right?
@@San-jx1zdBrett lies constantly. About her parents, her education. She gives no credit to the people who gave her everything. She a liar and a narcissist. If you can’t see that, you will eventually.
Side note. Gurrlll youre so pretty! ❤
Amen!! Its kinda distracting. And I'm a woman 😂❤
It is much harder to market a brand that nobody has ever heard of than Blake Lively & Ryan Reynolds
None of this is surprising. So many people saying ‘it breaks my heart’. Does it really? There’s so many other things that could potentially break my heart and thankfully this is not one of them.
It was a passion project for Justin. A low budget production based on a book that touched his heart and he wanted to turn it into a movie. He pitched it to Blake and Ryan with so much passion that they turned it into their movie and basically pushed him aside and it became The Blake Lively Show!
Brett looking especially beautiful today ❤️
So corny
My poop was a bit corny today
She’s married
Yeah she is. She’s probably preggers, she has that glow
How dare you think a married woman is beautiful 😄
she forcefullt took control and created a hot mess 😭
Justin just showed how much class he has, and more importantly that he truly cares about women ❤ Shilvery is not dead!
Chivalry*
this is why i am all for youtubers getting their facts together before being quick to post a video for the views and just talking about the moment or tea of the week.
There are some actors and actresses where I hear the name announced for the film, and I will at least pay attention. Even if I really had no interest in the story concept, I might just watch to see what they do with it. Sometimes a script carries actors and vice versa, and sometimes an ensemble cast raises a product. Sometimes they have the complete opposite effect, and it's like watching a dumpster fire or a train wreck. Either way, I'm entertained.
My point is that at no point have I ever heard Blake Lively's name attached to a project and thought, "Well now I have to see this." One way or the other, her husband moves the needle, but Blake? She's a telegenic actress that won't drag a production, but I don't see her as exciting. She's the celebrity equivalent of the BRAT diet-completely bland.
This is why you should never idolize anyone especially celebrities.
I’ve been hearing/seeing a lot stuff about Blake lately, s***s getting crazy! 😳😅
No one laugh
@@Zeldawrld Bro you're such a nerd. That's like your 97th comment
😲 I know.
@Zeldawrld. Why are you going under almost every post to say something mean? Try being nice for a change or scroll by.
They did get eyeballs to see the movie...so have to give them that. But yes quite a tone deaf PR strategy.
I’m not sure how people didn’t know this in the first place. I didn’t even know who Colleen Hoover was and I knew this.
BRETT YOU NEED TO GIVE US A BOOKSHELF TOUR I LOVE BOOKS
But , so you know, she only accepted the part once she was one of the producers and they agreed to that.
Yes! This
That's nothing shady or unusual. MOST of the time the largest actors in the film are also added as producers. It's because of how royalty payments and things work. It's why Alex Baldwin was a producer for rust. It's just a way of having more control over their image and it also gets them a larger cut of the money than just being in it. Often though the actors do very little on the production side other than attending a few meetings and signing a few more papers. 😂
This is exactly my thoughts about it too! As an author, if someone brought my book to the screen, despite the behind the scenes drama, I would be grateful that my book got made into a movie. Colleen Hoover is acting like Blake is the one who put her book in theaters when it was Justin Baldoni who made that happen and now Colleen doesn’t even at the very least follow him. It’s so weird.
It would have never grossed what it did if it wasn’t promoted and paired with the Deadpool marketing. They were able to use Deadpool marketing to filter directly into it ends with us. I bet the box on it ends with is is 50% higher having it come off the heels of Deadpool and the market pairing.
Everyone must bow down to her.
Period.
Both films almost tied for the largest box office sales weekends ever. When it comes to the awards season, Justin will get the recognition he deserves. He has also said that he is happy to let Blake and Ryan run with it because they are pros on how to do this stuff. They’re all good.
It's not all good just cause they all got what "they" wanted,, the main theme of the movie aren't discussed by the main actors , they rather discuss their "hair business" and other meagre topics, which is so disappointing and honestly shameful.
I'm so sorry for your loss. My deepest condolences. If you need a break take as much time as you need. I will keep you in my prayers.
No something about the way they both were so involved in each others films was kinda odd to me. I love Blake, and some of the actors of the film did not outwardly say he was difficult to work with but basically…BUT it was HIS film, and on top of playing a disliked character he’s been pushed out. Idk how to feel but it did seem really strange to me.
“The Blake and Ryan show” 100%. Sums it all up right there.
Baldoni hired a crisis PR firm to help him out, after behavioral complaints were laid against him. They did their job, bringing her down in under 2 weeks 😮
You know how mad you have to be to return a product these days? Effort
still Blake's action does not have any sort of empathy...PR crises or not, action speaks louder than words....
They could have made “complaints” because he wasn’t ok with them trying to steal his movie and he said so and they decided to try and remove him so he hired a PR firm to help defend himself..
Never like Blake for a lot of reasons.
Then this !!!
Ironically, in real life, she's the mean girl !
So, Blake Lively screwed over Justin Baldoni like Ben, Andrew and The Daily Wire screwed over Candace Owens. Gotcha!🙄
Mad respect for Justin! Will find his master class in industry narcissism and take it!
This collab is pure gold!
bot
It makes me sad to hear. I liked her and Ryan Reynold
just remember who their best friend is (Taylor Swift) and you'll know they move in narcissistic groups only
I always loved how she stood up for child sex trafficking and protecting their innocence. Hearing all of this is so disappointing.
Being a fan doesnt mean you know that person. It means you like their movies. People get that so confused.
Domestic violence is something that no one really wants to talk about. I live through it. I have CPTD. I am now divorced . Also, Lupus; SLE ! Being emotionally, physically, mentally, psychologically and financially exhausted!!! Why do I always see things on my tv screen of filth. Porn, Pride Parades with children there, cursing,sexual content, everything but abused women ! Promoting alcohol which was one of the reasons things elevated. Covid really made it worse!!!
I cried out for help but during covid everything was shut down! To think about a professional telling me to hold on ! This movie could have saved someone life but honestly alcohol, nail polish and hair products would have made it worse for me; this is a serious issue !!! To glamorize domestic violence, I barely was hanging on ! Just another slap in my face ! Yes, spitting in my face, pulling my hair all the way to the floor and thrower into walls. Why DV????? Why not call it what it is, Domestic Violence !!! Just hope that Justin would want to know that he got it right ! This has scared my heart for life. I kept saying, I am sorry ! I left and what ever he wanted he took. Barely, get any money from him. I must say if it had not been for the Lord I would not be here today ! It’s a man’s world!!!! I was afraid day and night ! Imagine, just how bad it could be and I still do not think no one could possibly do ! This should be made right because women are not strong as men and best not to fight back ! Ever had a gun put to your head. Blake, has four children and I hope she never has to endure with one of her children what I went through !
There was a show many years ago, some type of reality show that I remember seeing Blake on and she was having a conversation with her mom about how she was about to get a nose job. Her mother was so upset, crying she said but you won’t look like my Blakey. You’re beautiful why would you choose to look like someone else. Her mom seems sweet
How much money would the movie make if Blake was not a big part of the marketing campaign? Movies in this category rarely see this high of a box office. As long as the studios know of Justin’s involvement in the movie, he should have no problem securing more contracts.
I don’t think money is his ultimate goal. He makes movies for the content and quality. His others movies prove that. The fact he purchased the movie rights to this movie was one of the first bits of news I had heard when this all started.
There are many other good actresses they could have used and I’m a sure they would have had the pick of the bunch. Actually she wasn’t the best choice because although the film was brilliant. It’s hard to separate her from the character.
Blake is torpedoing the film, either on purpose or by accident. She needs to shut up.
You’re a fan of her relationship with Ryan Reynolds? What a strange strange thing to be a “fan” of. I swear this chick gets weirder every time I see her
exactly !! it’s so messed up
Anyone thought this feud is a stand to make money at the box office ? They can't play the romance card like Sidney Sweeny did with "Anyone but you" cause she is married so a beef in the second best choice!
When I was in high school in the 80’s, Blake Livleys mom was one of the most beautiful women on the big screen. Didn’t know till recently Blake was her daughter.
Get the ring in at every opportunity
Hahaha I just rewatched
She is an example of an "entitled person." She is ungrateful and self-agrandizing.
Never been a fan of how he talks about his kids with so many profanities.
Justin is an amazing soul that spends his life on and off camera trying to make the world a better place. Blake is showing her true colors as someone who is all about Blake.
What Hollywood celebrities are doing is of zero importance to me. I literally could care less about what any celebrity does. They are no different or better than anyone else.
If you could care less that means you have room to not care as much as you do…could not care less means you have zero caring. 🙈
@@amynazzathank you! I was going to be the grammar cop but.... you're here. 😆👍🏻
@@Linda-qp9kp 🤣🤣🤣
No no no she bully Justin out of his own movie 😅
That’s what happens when you glaze one actress over your whole acting crew. Colleen’s decision to have Blake play this role was a bad decision but ofc she gotta make her self insert look like her favorite actress lol
Who are we kidding. The only reason anyone is talking about this movie is because she's involved. Otherwise it would have been buried in the Netflix algorithm.
Correction, the only reason anyone is talking about this movie is because she started drama. I've never heard of this book nor the author, and I had no clue this movie was even happening. My knowledge of Blake Lively a week ago was literally that she's Ryan Reynolds' wife and she used to be in that show Gossip Girl a long time ago. I wouldn't be surprised if that's all 95% of people know about her too.
She is an executive producer which means her money. He shouldn’t have brought her on if he wanted to own it
Prolly the worst mistake he made which she definitely saw the opportunity and took advantage of it for herself now the dude who started it ain't getting no credit nor his money
can we also stop pretending that the book is some amazingly well done story about overcoming domestic violence?? movie aside, the book is genuinely terrible. colleen hoover is not a good writer and the tough subject matter was not even executed well or handled with grace!!! the movie drama is also bad but let’s not gloss over the bad source material either!
how?
Her dad had a cabin in the little town that I grew up in, and everytime she came into town she treated people horribly rude, so I haven't been a fan of her for at least 15 years.
Who benefits from this Hollywood nonsense?
Seriously, who's life is genuinely improved by this information?
The people working for the movie, by making more money because of all this exposure😅
Isn’t Brett just the cutest thing ever. I just love her ❤
If the dude had all the rights and got “pushed out” there’s really only one thing to conclude, he’s a pushover… let’s stop making actors and movies out to be more than it is: just another business
And no this is not an excuse for Blake’s behaviour but we’re all human so let’s not act pretentious here, you get a good deal, you take it and no one knows what happened behind closed doors, so let’s stop making a problem over something no one involved stipulated…
Thank goodness Justin’s taking over again and got the rt PR to help clean up.
