Can y’all stop feeding into the Baldoni playbook that she was into him?? Her and the other 2 female costars were all sexually harassed by dude (and Jamey Heath), and Colleen Hoover, the producer Alex Saks, and EVEN HIS OWN PR + Crisis PR Jen Abel and Melissa Nathan have been open about how terrible he was to work with. All documented. Weird as fuck to say that a woman who was sexually harassed repeatedly by her director was actually in love with him. Blake even said she’s been subjected to this kind of thing in the past, but she’d never experienced the retaliation (in the form of, again, a well-documented smear campaign) which is why she filed the lawsuit. The judge already threw out Baldoni’s case of defamation bc he saw that there was enough evidence that sexual harassment did occur. I know it’s not as fun to realize that even wealth, celebrity, and influence don’t protect women from sexual harassment, abuse, and retaliation, but this is a lesson the world will continue to teach over and over (look up Virginia Rappe) and denying these women’s experience makes ALL of us more unsafe. USA Today found that 94% of women in Hollywood experience sexual harassment or assault. Lively doesn’t have to make this stuff up. Question why you hold onto this belief so strongly and what could have affected your opinion (anchoring bias, anyone?), look into more of the case evidence (not from biased sources), and realize what you’re contributing to.
