A(hole)-lister Blake Lively says she’ll keep fighting in court to protect the dignity of women everywhere!
Oh, give it a rest, blondie. There’s only one yellow-haired siren who occupies your every waking thought and I’m not talking about your ex-bestie Taylor Swift.
On Thursday, a federal judge tossed ten of Lively’s 13 complaints against her equally obnoxious It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni, whose own self-regard shrinks only in comparison to his gargantuan Adam’s apple.
When I read this news, I thought: ‘Holy hell, this godforsaken thing is still going on?’
Yup, the $161 million odyssey has been sailing through the legal system for 16 months. Lively, 38, kicked it all off by accusing Baldoni, 42, of sexual harassment. He fired back with a $400 million countersuit that was dismissed in June.
But now, in what must be the sweetest irony in the history of all great Hollywood fart-sniffers, Lively’s case appears to have largely crumbled under the weight of her over-inflated, sulfurous ego.
Judge Lewis Liman used Blake The Flake’s own words against her, citing a June 2024 letter that she fired off to the Producers Guild of America (PGA). In it she pleaded desperately for producing credit in the movie – declaring that she had ‘produced every moment of this film.’
According to the judge that means she can’t sue Baldoni for sexual harassment under the Civil Rights Act of 1964, because she didn’t work for the hairy beast.

If Perma-beard Baldoni had been Lively’s superior, this would be a very different sequel, but ‘Lady Boss’ Lively wore the pants on set, apparently.
Plus, says Judge Liman, Baldoni was acting when he allegedly got handsy with her.
‘Creative artists, no less than comedy room writers, must have some amount of space to experiment within the bounds of an agreed script without fear of being held liable for sexual harassment,’ Liman wrote in his ruling.
Well, that’s… right? Wrong.
If you assumed that this lawsuit Ended With This, then you’d never met an insatiable LA ego monster before.
Lively posted on Instagram Friday, ‘I brought this case because of the pervasive RETALIATION I faced, and continue to, for privately and professionally asking for a safe working environment for myself and others.’
Even with a big, judicial middle finger waving in her face, Blathering Blake appears hellbent on moving forward, with a court date in May to litigate her claims that Baldoni’s production company and studio breached her contract and ran a retaliation campaign against her in the media.
Ugh! I hate these streaming series. They’re freaking endless!
If there’s any consolation here, it’s that the reputations (and bank accounts) of both these Tinseltown twits have been taxed by this celebrity hissy fit.

Never forget that this drama appears to have marked, at least the beginning of the end of Lively’s friendship with Taylor Swift.
Baldoni’s lawyers were also able to dig out Lively’s private messages during their defense, revealing a now infamous, toe-curling exchange, in which Lively appeared to refer to herself as the character from Game of Thrones, Daenerys Targaryen ‘The Mother of Dragons’ – and to Swift as one of her ‘dragons.’
The whole ordeal left Swift reportedly feeling ‘exploited’ by her pal – and if she does, who can blame her.
Hey Blake, if that Taylor-Travis summer wedding invite doesn’t arrive… I wouldn’t be shocked.
Look, I’m going to call it as I see it – barring whatever new dirt is exposed in this ongoing courtroom cage-match – it seems like Baldoni beat Lively at her own game.
The best thing for Bougie Blake to do is squirm away, take the loss and hope to emerge from this legal trash heap a new woman, because right now she looks as fake as her hair extensions.

Police bodycam footage from Tiger Woods’s recent DUI crash shows the troubled duffer humbly flexing to officers, ‘I was just talking to the president.’
Let’s hope he didn’t recommend freshly available Pam Bondi to take over as Tiger’s new attorney.

Smoking hot mess
Britney Spears is another celeb bitten by the DUI bug, turns out even when she’s a passenger she’s a hazard. Last week she was pictured flicking ash from her lit cigarette out the window of her G-Wagon while her minion pumped gas.
Brit, we know you want your career to blow up but this is NOT the way to go about it.
Celebxit
Nick Cannon is the latest black celeb to Walk Away from the Democrat party. He shared his frustration with the donkeys on his Big Drive podcast last week when he said: ‘Democrats don’t care about black people.’
Ouch, that’s a loss for the libs. When Cannon’s children come of age they’ll be one of the largest voting blocks in the country!

Ooh la la
There’s a new French dating trend where horny frogs forego small talk on first dates and jump right into describing their sex lives.
That’s really skipping the foie gras and heading face first into the beef bourguignon!
Chaste, sober American singles seemed perplexed when they heard about the trend, asking, ‘Sex? What’s that?’
