Blake Lively is suing Justin Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment.
Hollywood star, Blake Lively has filed a legal complaint against It Ends With Us co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, accusing him of sexual harassment and orchestrating a campaign to damage her reputation. According to the filing, obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, tensions on set led to a meeting where Lively demanded changes, including an end to inappropriate comments, discussions about Baldoni’s alleged past, and alterations to the script without her consent. Baldoni’s legal team denied the allegations, calling them “serious and categorically false.” The complaint also accuses Baldoni of using the film’s themes of domestic violence to shield his public image, alleging manipulation and a coordinated effort to undermine Lively. Rumors of behind-the-scenes drama had circulated, fueled by Baldoni’s absence from promotional events and social media tensions. The fallout raises doubts about a potential sequel to the film.

Kendrick Lamar looks to sneak diss Drake on SZA’s new record, “30 For 30.”
Rapper, Kendrick Lamar continues his feud with Drake on SZA’s new song, “30 For 30,” a track off her LANA (SOS Deluxe) album. The collaboration marks the only guest appearance on SZA’s project and comes after she featured on two tracks from Lamar’s surprise album, GNX. On “30 For 30,” Kendrick’s sharp lyrics seem directed at Drake, referencing someone close to SZA and including lines like, “You f—in’ with n—as that’s thinkin’ they cuter than you…he on his period too.” Fans speculate the track’s title, shared with a Drake song, hints at intentional shade. Lamar also alludes to Drake’s lawsuit against UMG and Spotify over alleged streaming inflation for “Not Like Us.” Coincidentally, Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” became the biggest rap song of 2024, earning him five Grammy nominations. While fans debate the diss, Kendrick’s lyrical digs and accolades keep him in the spotlight.
"You f*ckin' with n****s that's thinkin' they cuter than you / Say you on your cycle but he on his period too."
