Blake Lively Subpoenas Scooter Braun in Legal Fight With Justin Baldoni
The tangled web of Hollywood drama just got even juicier, folks. Buckle up, because it seems like the claws are officially out in Blake Lively’s legal battle over the movie “It Ends With Us.” And who’s caught in the subpoena crossfire this time? None other than the infamous music mogul, Scooter Braun.
According to reports from Deadline, Lively is eager to dive deep into what Braun knows about co-star Justin Baldoni’s alleged smear campaign against her. Yep, it’s getting messy, folks.
Lively isn’t holding back, serving up subpoenas to Braun’s company, HYBE America, as well as the man himself. She’s on a mission to unearth any dirt related to the alleged smear campaign orchestrated by Baldoni, who apparently roped in crisis PR pro Melissa Nathan to stir up negative press about Lively. Talk about a Hollywood showdown.
The plot thickens as Lively aims to dig up any materials linking Braun and HYBE America to Nathan’s company, The Agency Group PR. It’s like a real-life soap opera playing out in the courtroom.
Naturally, the media frenzy doesn’t stop there. Billboard reached out to all parties involved – Lively, HYBE America, Braun, Baldoni, and even Nathan – for their two cents on the matter. It’s a legal circus, and everyone’s lining up to grab the popcorn.
But wait, there’s more. Remember Taylor Swift? Well, she got dragged into the mix too. Baldoni attempted to slap her with a subpoena, hoping to loop her into the legal drama. Swift, being the queen she is, swiftly shut that down, with her reps slamming the move as a ploy for cheap publicity. Can’t blame a guy for trying, right?
In case you missed the memo, this messy legal saga kicked off when Lively dropped the hammer with sexual harassment and retaliation claims against Baldoni. In a classic turn of events, he fired back with allegations that Lively, her hubby Ryan Reynolds, and publicist Leslie Sloane cooked up the harassment claims. Yikes, Hollywood’s never been so scandalous.
A federal judge recently tossed out Baldoni’s countersuit, but the drama is far from over. The stage is set for a blockbuster trial in 2026, and you bet we’ll all be tuning in for the next episode of this wild Hollywood rollercoaster.
So, grab your popcorn and settle in, folks. This legal drama is turning out to be one hell of a ride. Hollywood, never change.
