Guy gets arrested for assault for hugging a teenager and calling her hot. Literally the same thing Baldoni did to Blake Lively and Jenny Slate.
nbcnews.comWhy are Blake Lively's haters so passionate about hating her yet don't have the same energy for male celeb rapists, abusers, and predators?
There are several popular Blake Lively snark subs, but none for Chris Brown, Brad Pitt, Kevin Spacey, or the dozens to hundreds of other male celebrity abusers and predators. If they do have them, they aren't nearly as hateful or snarky or popular as the Blake Lively snark subs. The hate has gotten so intense that Reddit is even taking action against these subs. I can also pretty much guarantee that the users posting in these subs are not commenting or posting to the same degree about these men. Can Blake Lively's haters explain why they're so much more passionate about hating Blake's hair, outfits, bathroom layout, hobbies, etc than they are for hating the behavior of actual abusers, rapists, and predators? It's really interesting.
ETA: A lot of people in here missing the whole point. If Blake's haters can prove to me they spend at least as much time on the internet hating male celebrity predators I'll certainly eat my hat
I’m just gonna leave this here and hope MJ fans can distinguish the person and the singer
It’s clear he was a pedophile. There are plenty of evidences.
N before you come at me with “he wasn’t convicted”, so wasn’t Trump. Does it make him not guilty?
Blake Lively gets positive headlines , new story pops up about her bills
I find it interesting that Vogue and E wrote some positive headlines about Blake ( looking fabulous) at a recent Fendi event and suddenly we now have this story about unpaid bills on their home.
Perez is back on the attack it seems. As are the Daily Fail , all outlets linked to TAG. I even saw our favourite sub try to push this as a new talking point to disparage.
Are they realising big fashion brands havent cancelled Blake , are they noticing their talking point of Hollywood is done with Blake and Ryan is null and void ?

billboard.comWhy Do People Completely Ignore This About the Michael Jackson Case?
Even though I am neutral in this whole Michael Jackson case and still doing my own research, this is one of the craziest things I found.
During the 1993 FBI/LAPD investigation at Neverland Ranch, a book called \*Boys Will Be Boys\* was reportedly found, along with other similar books containing nude images of children. These books are often defended by fans as “art,” but after actually looking through \*Boys Will Be Boys\*, I genuinely do not understand how people completely brush it off.
In my opinion, this is not “art” in any normal sense. The content is literally centered around nude children, and the book itself has long been controversial because of the way it presents them. What makes it even harder to ignore is that these books were reportedly kept inside Michael Jackson’s private bedroom closet, not some random storage room where unwanted gifts were piled up.
And this book was made by an organisation called NABLA and there sole purpose to make this book was to view children inappropriately , this organisations aim was to normalise pedophilia
And another thing that stands out to me: Michael allegedly had this book for over a decade. He changed houses, moved into Neverland, and still kept it with him all those years. That raises questions people should at least be willing to discuss openly instead of instantly shutting the conversation down.
Can somebody honestly address this without immediately dismissing it

"So the Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively case is coming to and end and I'm still seeing alot of ignorant takes on it... That lawsuit was not about who was a better director... it was about sexual harassment and retaliation in the workplace" I couldn't have said this any better myself!
From Tabloid to Tally Clicks: The Ethical Line Perez Hilton Keeps Crossing - who "once rejected the title of journalist, calling himself “a commentator," but used it as a shield from accountability when it suited.
Another great article written by Rydus on Medium:
"In the early years of PerezHilton.com, he published hand-drawn doodles on paparazzi photos, nicknames for stars, and insider rumors that spread faster than any print tabloid could follow. His irreverence earned him both millions of readers and a reputation for cruelty. He outed closeted celebrities, mocked young performers, and ran commentary that many critics described as harassment disguised as humor. Yet the same tactics that brought outrage also brought traffic, sponsorships, and celebrity visibility.
That legacy still shapes the ethics of entertainment reporting today. Hilton’s approach — immediate, emotional, and personal — set the tone for an entire generation of digital gossip outlets. The story no longer needed to be confirmed; it only needed to be clickable."
"In December 2024, Blake Lively filed a lawsuit in federal court accusing It Ends With Us director and co-star Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and workplace retaliation. Her complaint detailed repeated inappropriate comments, unwanted physical contact, and an incident in which Baldoni entered her trailer while she was nursing. Another producer was alleged to have shown her a graphic childbirth video as a “creative reference.”
Baldoni denied all allegations. In February 2025, he and his company, Wayfarer Studios, filed a US $400 million countersuit against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds, accusing them of defamation and civil extortion. That countersuit was dismissed in June 2025 under California’s anti-SLAPP statute, with the judge ruling that Lively’s statements in her legal filings were protected speech."
"Within that broader litigation, Lively’s legal team subpoenaed several online commentators, including Perez Hilton, to determine whether Baldoni or his associates had coordinated or encouraged a digital smear campaign against her. The subpoena sought communications and payment records, arguing that Hilton’s unusually high volume of negative posts about Lively could indicate collusion. Hilton denied any connection to Baldoni’s team. Representing himself initially, he invoked Nevada’s journalist-shield laws and federal reporter’s privilege, asserting that his coverage relied solely on public filings and personal opinion. In September 2025, after he retained representation from the ACLU of Nevada, Lively’s team withdrew the subpoena."
"Hilton had become a central example of the blurred border between commentator and journalist — protected under press-freedom principles yet operating largely as an independent entertainer."
"The subpoena dispute renewed scrutiny of Hilton’s methods, not for illegality but for influence. His coverage of the Lively-Baldoni litigation was frequent, emotional, and timed to each filing. Posts carried personal commentary rather than neutral summaries. None of this violated law or policy, but it raised an old ethical question in new form: when coverage is driven by virality, does it still serve a journalistic function?"
"In the context of the Lively-Baldoni case, Hilton’s insistence on journalistic protection reflects an interesting paradox. He once rejected the title of journalist, calling himself “a commentator.” Yet when faced with legal scrutiny, he asserted the privileges of the press. That dual posture mirrors the entire entertainment-media landscape: the creator wants independence from institutional restraint but also the legitimacy of the institutions they replaced."
"Perez Hilton’s current relevance lies not in his notoriety but in what he represents. He is the bridge between the blogosphere of the 2000s and the influencer economy of the 2020s. His story is a map of how attention replaced authority and how the business model of gossip became the business model of media itself."
Why Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds May Still Be Dragged into Court Over Justin Baldoni Legal Drama
ibtimes.co.ukHayden Panettiere Says a 'Well-Respected' Oscar Winner Exposed Himself to Her at Party When She Was 19
Not quite celeb legal drama yet but I think it's interesting she won't name the person. Does anyone else think it's because of the backlash and retaliation she has seen against vocal actresses such as Amber Heard and Blake Lively? It's sad to see powerful men not facing consequences because of fear of retaliation.
New Reddit user here who used to support Baldoni; hopefully I'll be allowed to post this. I am really upset seeing other Baldoni supporters defending Melissa Nathan and Jed Wallace given their work for the Alexander brothers (actual rapists) and RFK Jr. (one of the craziest members of the Trump admin who is helping destroy the U.S.)
The New York Times today just published an article on the May 1 unsealed documents from last night, showing Jed Wallace's work for RFK Jr, and I just have to ask (as a person who defended Baldoni for a long time) -- how can any other Baldoni supporters be OK with this? If you think Justin didn't do anything wrong on set, fine, but why are you defending his horrifying PR team?
