Is Megyn Kelly Right About ‘Serial Fraudster’ Blake Lively?

The conservative commentator didn’t pull any punches on an episode of SiriusXM’s The Megyn Kelly Show, the place she made it fairly clear that she was backing Justin Baldoni within the ongoing authorized drama.

She didn’t hesitate to name Full of life a “serial fraudster” and a “relatively sh-tty particular person” whereas noting that the “Gossip Lady” alum “completely ruined her personal model” by beginning “a struggle she can’t win.”

“I’ve but to see one in all her complaints borne out. In actual fact, all the ones I’ve seen have been undermined by [Baldoni’s] hardcore proof in textual content messaging and so forth that places a completely totally different mild on her horrific allegations,” Kelly continued. “You then see what she truly stated and wrote. It’s totally totally different.”

“After I was within the conferences, I used to be like, I’m simply right here to be the actor and I’m right here to get the gig. I wouldn’t reveal that I wanted to have authorship to really feel fulfilled,” Full of life defined. “And I really feel for them, it felt like a rug pull, and also you’re making an attempt to insert your self into one thing we didn’t rent you to do.”

She went on to say,  “Typically I had the director, writers, producers who would welcome that when I used to be in a position to provide that, and generally I had individuals who resented that, as a result of they only employed me to be the actor.”

Kelly didn’t hesitate to name out Full of life for her controversial feedback. “She’s a serial fraudster,” Kelly stated on her podcast. “That is known as fraud. While you faux you wish to do the one factor and you may do the factor they’re hiring you for, however all alongside you’ve secret plans to do one thing very, very totally different that is above your pay grade.”

“She lastly ran into somebody who was weak sufficient and never well-known sufficient to cease her. This Justin Baldoni, most individuals had by no means even heard of him — he’d been in, like, one sequence. He definitely wasn’t at Ryan Reynolds–stage fame, by no means thoughts Blake Full of life, and he or she bullied him into giving her the film the place she did her personal lower,” she added.

In his lawsuit, Baldoni claims that two totally different variations of “It Ends With Us” have been created. Though his edit allegedly scored larger with take a look at audiences, Full of life’s edit was the one utilized in theaters. Baldoni claims that Full of life had used numerous threats with a view to get her model used, akin to threatening to pull a Taylor Swift song from the trailer and threatening to boycott the movie’s press tour.

Kelly additionally criticized Full of life for the “nerve” that she needed to attempt to blame her “two minutes of dangerous publicity” on Baldoni, saying, “None of it was simply because of the truth that she looks like a relatively sh-tty particular person.”

Full of life was closely criticized for selling her personal hair merchandise, non-alcoholic drinks, and different manufacturers whereas she was alleged to be promoting the movie. She additionally made glib feedback like “Seize your ladies, put on your florals” to the theater, which many took difficulty with, because it undermined the movie’s severe message of home violence.

In response to the backlash, Full of life and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, allegedly drafted a “statement of contrition” that they wished Baldoni and his manufacturing firm, Wayfarer Studios, to launch, basically taking full accountability for Full of life’s feedback. Clearly, they refused.

Through the podcast, Kelly stated, “She does seem like an Amber Heard to me,” referencing Heard’s extremely publicized 2022 trial. In 2018, Heard wrote an op-ed describing her experiences as a home violence survivor. Though she didn’t point out her ex-husband, actor Johnny Depp, straight, he sued her for defamation and was awarded $15 million in compensatory and punitive damages.

Baldoni is at present suing for $400 million, alleging that Blake Full of life, Ryan Reynolds, and their respective groups, tried to destroy his popularity by spreading “grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new and doctored info to the media.” He’s additionally suing The New York Instances for libel, claiming they “cherry-picked” and stripped “essential context” from textual content messages that they printed with a view to make a stronger case for Full of life.

Now that Baldoni has created an internet site to point out the allegedly unedited variations of the textual content messages, the general public has an opportunity to determine for themselves who’s telling the reality. As a lot as I don’t often agree with loads of what Megyn Kelly has to say, she is true right here. The textual content messages Baldoni has posted have poked holes in virtually all of Full of life’s harassment claims, and her personal admission of a “secret plan” to take over films she’s forged in has solely made folks extra skeptical of her intentions when she determined to file this lawsuit.
