    1. Baldoni’s toast going up against lively. Lively is represented by Endeavor and that is owned by Ari Emmanuel. The dude owns everything and has his paws in everything. He will get silenced like he is right now. I feel bad for the dude but they won’t let him win this one.

    2. He needs to give it up against Blake lively she was merely speaking up telling the truth and protecting herself in her profession. They can't behave like that. She's a star and huge career. So much more to do.
