It’s about power, not about helping women, or anybody other than themselves. And that’s why they eat their own. A bunch of people who are fighting for power. The same happens for the extreme right though. Collectivism is the problem. Every time you assign individuals to a group, and shame them or praise them for that…
Top it off, the interviewer is infertile and has said it was very hurtful because she will never have a little bump to say that she is pregnant Edit: I didn't expect this to get so much attention. Thanks for 8k, but there is war in the comments rn, anyway. God bless ya'll
and Blake knew that before the interview right? Because that's the only way it can make a difference otherwise its was just plain rude not rude and in bad taste
Blake was always going to go for the high publicity Hollywood hubby and try to be a "I've got it all gal" in the publics view.. she was dumped by Leo DiCaprio only weeks before she got with Ryan bc she wanted marriage and kids to lock in the relationship on a Brad and Angie level.. she's very ambitious..scarily ambitious from what I've seen..
Don't forget Penn Badgley (Blake's ex boyfriend, Dan from Gossip Girl) is friends with Justin Baldoni and doesn't even follow Blake Lively. Lol. 😂 He only follows Leighton Meester.
I'm sure Blake is likely not that horrible lol. But feminism has a way of rotting things it touches. That's the real villain here. It's the reason why Captain Marvel can't understand why people find it hard to like her. Some women handle the subtle rot better than others tho.
Her co-star tried to save the situation by being funny, however Blake was so rude it's actually crazy. Were I the interviewer I would have cast her out.
I ran into the two of them in Vancouver and it changed my impression of the both of them from good people to literal agents of chaos that revel in actual types of energy seen before a situation ends up escalating to a major domestic, and just teeter at that cliff like it's a fun place for them.
Scarlet Johansson was right in my opinion. "Since when do people ask each other if they are wearing underwear in an interview?" Wearing tight clothes isn't an excuse to ask someone that.
Many such cases. Women don’t understand that men have to use restraint because if they’re too much of an asshole another man who feels too disrespected will just punch them out. Women never have to fear getting knocked tf out so they have no chill when they try to be girl-bosses. Like drunk girls swinging at a nightclub bouncer with no idea how badly that would go for them if they were a dude
her version of “strong” is controlling. Strength from insecurities does that. Her character in A Simple Favor seemed like the scary side of her normal cheery confident public persona.
Blake when interviewed about clothes on a film set in the flapper era: *'Sexism!!'* Blake when asked about DA in a film centred around DA: *'So yeah, I'm wearing..'*
She was advertising her coffee line, shampoo line and alcohol line 😅 Rambling off topic about nonsense like her Zodiac sign and her clothes. It hurt to watch.
Sorry but Blake doesnt know this. Plus no one in the work place in a work interview should ever be dealt with people commenting on their body. It was in not the time. Ask her about her work and if at the end it feels like you have good rapport then give a congrats to the pregnancy. Dont call it a bump. Blake was a bitch but I would have been too!
She didn’t know that at the time of the interview, but it didn’t make what Blake said any less rude. I just don’t understand what possessed Blake to be so rude in that interview, she and her co star were completely in the wrong. I feel awful for that journalist that interviewed them
@@jaydas8976 agree .Blake was Rude. But the interviewer should never mentioned it. They are in a work environment. not appropriate. Especially calling it a bump. That was uncomfortable.
Does this not happen all of the time, since the dawn of time? I don't get the drama. These celebs are shoved in a room and expected to respond like a robot for hours on end 😅
@@MeganeMondeoMX5 they dont need to respond like a robot, they respond with there opinion that is relevant to the question, you dont ignore and have your own convesation
Yes, but the interviewer was rude first. Etiquette 101 - It has always been considered extremely rude to talk about a pregnant woman's stomach. Announcing one's pregnancy isn't an invitation for a stranger to discuss one's stomach. Ideally, Blake would have just stared at her in disbelief.
I got a very toxic vibe from them both. Parker seemed like that friend of the highschool bully who tries to impress the bully by out meaning them. Cringe.
Once one bully starts the weak follow. I mean the way Parker’s eyes rolled back I thought she was going to have to surgically have to put them back right again 🙄
@@veronicaleon8075 Both PP and BL seem to be enjoying themselves. No hurt on their faces - just mischief. I should have said they were HOPING to be offended (instead of expecting). They wanted an excuse for their bullying.
Impossible to know but I wonder if the interviewer hadn’t complimented the bump, what Blake would have tried to be offended by instead. The poor woman was most likely never going to win.
Maybe she shouldn’t have commented on another woman’s body to begin with. Girl to girl talk isn’t chatting about someone’s body, friends don’t even do it unless the person whose body it is brings it up. Yikes.
@@NotSoSlimButAlittleShady to be fair, she shouldn't have interviewed her at all. Pretending we care about celebs and providing them a limelight is the start of the problem 😂
@@NotSoSlimButAlittleShady people like you who use this argument baffle me. "She shouldn't have commented on her body" . Do you know what a baby bump is? A baby bump is a pregnancy. Congrats on your bump means congrats on your little baby on the way. Is that not obvious? She was not commenting on her body, but on her pregnancy. How can you not tell the difference? Seriously its like you ppl are being dense on purpose
The irony of them being on their feminist high horse while treating another woman like absolute garbage... also Blake going on to then preach about how "celebrities are so much more interesting, special, kind, than anyone realizes" UHHHH... but clearly not more self-aware. 👀
Norwegian here. We are definitely more blunt than the average American. It's virtually impossible to construe someone's congrats on your pregnancy as a bad thing here. And a baby bump is beautiful, healthy and unproblematic.
We demonize pregnancy in the U.S. stay single forever and killing a child in the third trimester is celebrated. Roe v Wade was overturned and put the power back to the states and people act like abortion is completely banned. Even conservative states have about the same policy on abortion as Europe. The west is falling.
And the interesting thing is that Blake had already announced her pregnancy publicly well before the interview with Kjersti. She wasn't asking if she was pregnant, which is different, but congratulating her, which was a friendly starter.
Does anyone else remember when an interviewer asked Martin Short about his wife, not knowing that she had passed??? He could've made something out of it, but he handled it so gently. He has class.
Scarlet Johansson had genuine reason to address inappropriate questions to her, like the underwear one. But even then, she wasn’t rude. But Blake was trying to make herself self-important. Asking about the wardrobe of a 1930s film wasn’t sexist at all. In fact, many articles mentioned the wardrobe. Blake is just so rude.
I hated when Brett said that’s not the worst question, because this question just redirects the viewers from learning more about the movie to imagining Scarlet nit wearing any underwear and it targets predators
Blake lives in the town I grew up in. Not that I've met her personally, but everyone I know who has say that she's lovely. My friend worked at their pharmacy and she was apparently very nice whenever she came in. She told me Ryan Reynolds is more introverted and keeps his head down, but Blake is very personable and would start up conversations with whoever was working. People have bad days and pregnancy definitely messes with everyone's hormones. Do I think she came off very rude from this interview? Yes. But she's a person and we all get into moods and do/say things we later regret. Unfortunately, she has to be recorded for a majority of her job and those moments get published to the world.
I remember how people came to Chris Pratt’s defense when they were only focusing on his body transformation on interviews. He just laughed and shook it off. Good enough strategy, I guess
@user-eu4sz5fw1j no😂. It's 1. A compliment, 2. A question, 3. Harmless and isnt personality all. They aren't asking you for personal struggles or what you suffered. They are asking a workout routine.
@@meshman4236 Its not appropriate in a business setting which is what it was. Not saying Blake wasnt rude. She absolutely was. But this interviewer should have known better.
@@BellaDigital-p7e I agree. The other day I saw a interview of I think Emily Blunt and the male interviewer asked her how she got in “prefect shape” to play cat woman and she was like “why are you trying to lose weight?” Lol it was hilarious and lots of ppl praise her for how she responded. It was a harmless question (besides “perfect” *cringe*) but I think a big issue is that in that industry they focus a lot, too much even, on how ppl look and they’re always commenting on how attractive or unattractive they are and told they need to look a certain way. Blake ofc has probably felt that pressure. It was definitely an odd way to congratulate her too. She took it the wrong way but I’m not mad at how she responded.
In Australia, it’s pretty common to congratulate a pregnancy by saying “congrats on the little bump”. Blake was so rude to fat shame her after. The fact that Blake and Parker then chatted like she wasn’t in the room was so awkward and gave me high school bitch energy. I felt so bad for the interviewer.
Bc that way she gets to be the victim. And Blake loves when it’s about her. Her entire energy is “ME ME ME” or “look how hot my husband is.” Well jokes on her bc Justin is way hotter 😂
I couldn’t live with myself if I ever made someone feel that low. Blake and Parker were graceless and self-important. They should be ashamed of themselves.
I wonder? I've read how when public figures get in hot water, the natural response is to think of themselves first - what's at stake, what they might lose etc, not the offended or injured party.
I totally could. I couldn't live with myself if I actually couldn't live with myself if I made someone feel low. Literally everything you say nowadays is gonna offend someone. I value speaking the truth and honestly over lies to accomodate feelings.
Not one of her gossip girl castmates / past co workers, not even taylor swift or her own husband has come out publicly to defend her… Goes to show the seeds she planted along her career. Meanwhile Justin baldoni’s past coworkers and crew have done tiktoks defending him, even sabrina carpenter still follows him on IG… its the little things that say a lot .
Yk ppl often dont comment on the things that are said ab them in the press whether they’re true or not? Also, tabloids spread lies told to them and make up things all the time.
They are Royalty!! They are waaaaayyyyy above defending their friend, or themselves to us peons...they don't waste their time with unnecessary riffraff
Scarlett’s interview is different from Blakes. It was inappropriate and creepy for that interviewer to ask about her underwear regardless of her costume. And Scarlett handled that very well. Unlike Blake just trying to get her attention there and unnecessarily attacking the interviewer.
The question to SJ was so wild and creepy. If there is one thing that no one should have to answer regardless of sex or status is anything regarding their under garments. Tf are people gonna do with the answer anyway? Blake was being a whiny cu*t tho
Scarlett is wearing a super hero outfit that seems so seamless and the interviewer finds it incredible how seamless the OUTFIT is... so wants to know how is that possible if wearing other clothes. Sure he could have asked in a different way, but so what. Obviously the Blake one is way worse.. but both are bad and any offense to the questions are part of the problem.
@@forfun6273 You'd think we'd be jealous of the other actresses in Hollywood that at least have a reputable award to their name and class during press.
Blake and Parker Posey tried to make the interviewer feel less than because they held the power, but Blake forgets that the public ultimately holds the power. And they can end her.
And he didn't. He has a back injury and because the script called for him to lift her up, he asked his set trainer how he could best handle it and how much she weighed. She made stuff up.
Also many people are fit while having a high weight. Muscle literally weights higher than fat. I bet Justin himself is overweight by bmi standards considering how much muscle he has.
I have a degree in journalism. I had such a visceral reaction to watching this Blake lively interview. It made me want to vomit. Honestly kudos to the interviewer for remaining professional. I think I would have walked out. It’s such a bully behavior to sit and have a conversation on the side. You know their PR people are there watching the whole thing. I’m wondering why it’s just coming out now. Was it buried to save face? The actresses should be embarrassed.
I felt awful for her. When they were all "Does anyone ask THE MEN about clothes?!" I believed the poor interviewer when she said "I would..." She didn't sound defensive, just sad.
I also have a degree in Journalism and worked in television. The claim that reporters were asked beforehand not to mention the pregnancy is unconfirmed, as far as I know, but it would explain why the situation reads as though we're missing context. I agree that you have to wonder why this is coming out now. If the reporter accidentally missed the pregnancy-memo or forgot the agreement and the actresses assumed she was being purposefully disrespectful (maybe another interviewer had pushed the issue before this moment), why publish this at all? Especially using click-baity terms like 'my nightmare interview' and 'the interview that made me want to quit my job'. Lively's reaction is so strange and rude, it's hard to imagine anyone would react like that without reason, especially considering the almost protective behavior of her co-star. It's also hard to believe the reporter never figured out why they reacted like this. She claims that at the time, she chose not to publish because "she wouldn't have a career now". Seems like someone picked just the right moment to publish at last. I don't know, something is off.
These actresses should be more than embarrassed. They are low class, mediocre at best at their profession and should probably exit the limelight - but of course, Blake is a narcissist and unable to give up the shiny bling bling high life!
@@YOLOlynn thank you for saying this. Like you said, something's not right. When I first saw the video title I expected something waaaaay worse than this. I remember thinking "...that was it? that was the interview that almost made her quit her job?" after watching the clip. Also I have to say that I've watched quite a lot of celebrity interviews where someone was pregnant and if I recall all the reporters/hosts have always said "congratulations on your pregnancy", a very neutral line. I don't really understand why the reporter had to use the word "bump"? It sounds a bit weird to me in that setting and I'm from the Nordics too. Did SHE actually want to get a reaction out of Lively?? And why was she so vague about the clothing question? It left a lot of room for misunderstanding. She could have said something like "this film takes place in 1930s. What are your thoughts on clothes from that era and were they represented appropriately in the film?" etc. - to really emphasize the fact that the film is a period piece and costume design was a big deal in that film. But... she didn't. The timing of this video to resurface was also a liiiittle too convenient. I dunno, this reporter isn't as clueless and innocent as she paints herself to be.
Soooo back then Blake tried to be Scarlett johanssen with her own 'empowerment' moment, now she's tryna be Margot Robbie to have another barbenheimer moment lol so pathetic
@@AmiraLeoMargot Robbie got lucky last summer and managed to pull off a bizarre marketing campaign with the Oppenheimer movie, colloquially known as the “barbenheimer” movie summer and it saved Margot Robbie’s career. While Blake wasn’t looking to save her career (it didn’t need saving until now), she was trying to emulate the “barbenheimer” effect by doubling up “It Ends With Us”and “Deadpool & Wolverine” on her promotional tour.
@@johnathanbowers5433 got it, thanks for explaining! Although, I didn't know that this campaign came from their side and imo her career didn't need saving. Anyways, nice to see someone reply in a helpful and nice way! :)
There is a difference between asking weather she is wearing underwear and not and then wanting to have a conversation about the costume design, which some people worked really hard on
Plus it takes place in the 1930s and articles written about the film also mentioned wardrobe. It was a natural question to ask. She's offended by everything.
I also feel like the gender of the person asking plays a big part in how a question is perceived. I know we like to pretend the genders are totally equal in every scenario but that’s just not the case. If a woman asked me if I was wearing underwear in a tight outfit, I would assume it’s because she has dealt with the struggle of annoying panty lines and is genuinely curious if I just had to skip it or if I found a pair that worked to avoid them. If a man asked if I was wearing underwear, I would question his intentions. He probably doesn’t have any experience wearing thin, skintight pants as they are not in for men so he has no reason to ask besides being curious about my undergarments which can come off as a little sexually inappropriate. Like why does him knowing if I’m wearing underwear matter? Just seems weird, especially if he is a straight man because the dynamic is different there as well. If Blake wanted her “girl boss” sexist question shutdown moment, she should’ve waited for an inappropriate question from a man - not a fashion question from a woman working for a fashion magazine like come on.
@@cc1526 yes really good point. Poor woman, she was actually interested in bearing their opinions and happy about the pregnancy. The male interviewer was a bit sleeky, but the female interviewer had genuine intentions
Some people have resting B!tch face. Parker Posey has resting drunk face. But she did seem to be trying to deflect the awkwardness with jokes about her own butt and trying to get the interview back on track. And the interviewer seems more hurt about Blake Lively's comments and attitude than Parker Posey's answers.
I posted this to someone else, but I think it should go here too. Blake lives in the town I grew up in. Not that I've met her personally, but everyone I know who has say that she's lovely. My friend worked at their pharmacy and she was apparently very nice whenever she came in. She told me Ryan Reynolds is more introverted and keeps his head down, but Blake is very personable and would start up conversations with whoever was working.

@@lizmorales8457Oh please….you’re one of those flying monkeys that will do anything to protect a psychopath. You should get some help with that from a professional. You’re welcome.
That itself is laughable. I remember thinking like 8 years ago, WHY is Blake lively still relevant? She’s just married to Ryan Reynolds. That’s great for real life and their family, but why does it merit public lionization?
She is the C-list version of Scarlett profession wise. Ryan could not cope with having a wife so much more talented and successful than him so he sought out a simple woman to marry. Seems to have made a smart choise, four kids later still married.
People love who they love could not cope someone successful and more talented than him ? pretty sure you are not Ryan Reynolds maybe if you were him would have done that i guess 🗿
@@Lillian.Gao.other than her red carpet looks, and let's be honest she is beautiful and slays the red carpet, she isn't relevant to mainstream audiences. I think the main reason this is blowing up is because she wanted to capitalize off of Deadpool and Wolverine attention.
And I love the fact that all she had to do was share an interview that was always meant to be shared for publicity for the movie. The interviewer didn't reveal Blake''s character. She did that all on her own...actually, she did it alongside Parker. 😂
The interviewer said that she interviewed Kristen Stewart (who was also in the film) right after this and thanked her for being so kind. I recommend everyone watch Kristen’s interview for contrast. She kept it real no Hollywood ego.
Meh - maybe Kristen is more down-to-earth, certainly, but let's not pretend she's not also off her rocker in her own way. That girl has gone totally mental the past few years. Hollyweird is just the scummiest WEIRDEST place.
Blake is showing that she’s way too practiced and skilled at being nasty. The fact that she didn’t miss a beat shows that there is authenticity to this behavior. I’m currently pregnant and this interviewer said nothing wrong! What’s so sad is that the interviewer was struggling with infertility. The whole thing is uncomfortable to watch.
Exactly - very at ease and familiar with being a bully. And then plastering a big fake smile across her face when the journo leaves looking slightly shaken. Make no mistake - for Blake, that meant success!
Exactly. When someone says something really nasty to you, it takes a while to process, let it sink in, and to realize that it was nasty and that you're hurt. Blake didn't even waste a second to bite back after what was meant as a compliment, as if she was waiting for something to react offended to. The interviewer, on the other hand, didn't know how to react to Blake's offense at first...
I think that was smart of him. She’s the more famous name, and she was clearly trying to direct negativity towards him by leaking stories about how he “made her uncomfortable” and asked about her weight.
I think he got that in defense of Blake and what she might throw out in gossips about him..and all bc Blake kinda bullied him into dominating the script since he owned the rights for it. She and Ryan both seemed to bully him and make him come off as the bad guy in this movies production. Looks like they want all the credit..
I agree it was smart of him. He wasn't in the wrong, but you don't have to be guilty to get smeared. But he probably didn't think the general public would side with him. Nor was he looking for beef.
How quickly you can lose respect for two pretentious actors who feel they're so far 'above' everyone else --- I used to love Blake, but her true colors are now showing. Pretty sad.
Also, let’s be fair, Scar Jo was basically being sexual harassed, the question was inappropriate and she called the interviewer out on it. That’s a girl boss! On the other hand, Blake Brown was being congratulated by the interviewer on her publicized pregnancy, if not, a very visible pregnancy, and she was so passive aggressive and rude to another woman. That’s a mean girl.
Have people lost all understanding of what words mean... she was being "harassed"? Grow up. It's like listening to any woman in 2024 use the word "oppression"... they don't know what that word means. She makes millions of dollars for having a fit ass and wearing tight clothes... god forbid folks talk about it. Women are tiresome in general.
It's so bizarre. Women's fashion culture is centered around the attention of other women. Who's buying the fashion magazines? Who's shopping for the clothes? Who follows the influencers? For Blake to act like that topic of conversation is beneath her is incredibly disingenuous.
It's interesting because Parker seemed like she was really going to have a good answer. She said things are going "digital" and I really wanted her to finish her thoughts, but she was interrupted by Blake.
In my own opinion she was very rude as well specially seeing how she ignored the interviewer and how she rolled her eyes after she left. (I don’t know who Scar Jo is but I’m assuming she is the other women in the clip with Blake)
"Congratulations on your bump" is like the most gentle and sweet way of pointing out someone is pregnant. Imagine getting offended by something so silly.
That really does seem completely harmless. And the way the interviewer said it was completely genuine. The response was brutal. I can watch boxers in a ring beat each other up for 10 rounds and not flinch but watching the hurt on the interviewer's face had me squirming.
1. She's hormonal 2. Commenting on someone's body when they are sensitive is not okay.... just because you think it's fine doesn't mean that other woman won't find it triggering.. there are other ways to congratulate someone on their pregnancy without commenting about their body; especially when she clearly doesn't even have a bump yet.
@@Ninja563 That's absurd. Pregnant women are not untouchable goddesses. My wife has been pregnant 4 times. Not once has she been so petty as to take an OBVIOUSLY kind comment in such a petty fashion. You don't get a pass to be a total asshole just because you're pregnant. This interviewer was congratulating her on her pregnancy. "Your bump" is a reference to the baby in her womb. OBVIOUSLY.
@SeraphsWitness okay? Did your wife deal with body dysphomia? You do realize just because you're wife didn't do something doesn't mean all woman magically don't deal with it. I know of a lot of woman who would be offended by that comment. Woman who have trouble with miscarriages as well because you're commenting on something they are struggling with and they feel like that kind of comment is mocking especially so early on. We don't know how she was handling her pregnancy and it's a weird thing to comment on. When I was pregnant, thank God no one commented on my body or I would have found it extremely weird and make me uncomfortable. They always just ask how the baby was doing instead of how big I was getting like you should.
Ego requires a lot of skill and intelligence to be handled. It’s a slippery slope, because as a actor you need it, if you wanna get roles in movies, but you also must hold and contain it, if you wanna stay a decent person.
WOW I am so glad to have found this. This is the first time I've been to this channel and holy moly you hit so many nails on the head, I'm gonna have to watch this again! I watched the interview, then the Kristin Stewart interview which followed and made Kjersti Flaa feel a little less awful about what happened in the Black/Parker disaster, and also Flaa's subsequent thank you video in response to it all, where she revealed how much more it hurt her considering her own fertility struggles. There is so much to unpack. Well done, thank you for digging deep here. 👏
Am I the only one who just didn’t like Blake before this whole ‘it ends with us’ saga? She has always been a one dimensional actor. She is pretty and that’s it about her. She never gave me good vibes. Nothing about her drama today is surprising to me.
Same! Didn’t find her a compelling or noteworthy actress. Didn't like her fashion sense or style. Have never been enamoured with her public persona despite her being constantly pushed as so relatable etc. I just could never see what it seemed we were constantly being told we should see in her. I actually felt a bit bad for finding her so inherently unlikeable. Not anymore 😅
Parker Posey was no better. The tone of her question "Are you a Woody Allen fan?" was sooooo patronizing. She seemed to insinuate "Do you even know who Woody Allen is?"
Remember everyone, never put your blind faith in celebrities, for they will always fail you. But always put your faith in the Lord, for He will never fail you.
Baldoni was a guy that bought the rights for a book he loved. Then Blake and Deadpool wanted it for themselves. How do you think Baldoni was supposed to act when it was all happening in front of him.
Blake was nothing but sloppy seconds maybe he still secretly not over his first wife scarlet maybe having regret he left her for Blake. Maybe that why she so desperately trying to act like her.
Blake just seems extremely insecure. After watching all of these clips, it just really seems like she talks herself into holes she can't get out of, instead of just relaxing.
I suspect narcissism. In a short amount of time in one clip, she shows she's thin-skinned (reaction to bump), then manipulates to assert control (rejection of journalist's question) then passive aggressiveness to lock that in (private convo to railroad journalist) and then ends with a big fake smile plastered across her face when journo leaves a bit dejected. (Success!!) That the journo is an attractive blonde probably didn't help matters!
I thought Blake was cute and I liked her and Ryan together. Then she showed her true colors by her petty, juvenile bullying of princess Catherine while she was dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment. Blake showed she is just a mean girl. And when she "apologized", it was insincere and she didn't even have enough decency to make it to Catherine. It was a vague, non apology. She is a juvenile mean girl.
@@martapriya98I agree. But I have really never heard anything about Scarlett being an ass. I've watched her since the horse whisperer. She was so good.
@@MegaDeath22 I think Scarlet was just as petty in that first interview clip. Pretending men don't get objectified is just silly. Answer the question, have a laugh, and move on.
@@SeraphsWitness true that though! Honestly some of these interviewers don't ask good questions lol I'd be annoyed too. But they're getting paid so much money it's like just do your job. I see you!
Excellent point, Brett - I remember a Marvel panel where Scarlett was the only woman present and all the men were asked about how they got into character, what is their character's motivation, what's their character's growth been like since the previous movie, how hard is it to do the action scenes, how hard is it to be away from loved ones, etc., and then they asked Scarlett if she went on a diet to stay skinny. She was upset, and in that context it was understandable. But even then (as in the example you showed, Brett, about the underwear question), she tried to respond in a bantering way, without getting rude and without shutting down the whole thing. Blake and Parker in this interview absolutely shut down the interviewer from the jump - and didn't even care that they were doing that to a woman, too! They both went in with chips on their shoulders and something to prove and yes, it was absolutely like mean girls. So disappointing.
Okay, so I'm pregnant and the things people say to me are more like "omg you're huge" "you've totally exploded since I saw you last week" "I wondered if you'd been eating all the pies or if you were pregnant" and everyone looks at my belly before they look at my face when they first see me. But I know they mean well, and I just try to embrace it! I smile and say thank you to comments like that! If someone says "congrats on your little bump" I would love that compared to what people say to me!
Haha girl I feel you! the best one I got when I was pregnant was, “omg you look like a marshmallow holding up a toothpick!” That was a new one. I legit cried right in front of them. I would have given anything for a cute little bump comment for BOTH my pregnancies!
@mrsholloman12 Omg no way 😭😭🤣🤣 Imagine if someone said that to Blake Lively, she'd probably start a whole new movement 🤣 Worst part is, I feel like I love my preggo body and my bump is cute and I expected to put on more weight than this, yet people still love to tell me how extremely enormous I am 🤣🤣
And there's a difference between asking someone if they're pregnant (because you see a something) vs. congratulating and being happy for a pregnancy. Blake doesn't seem to know the difference. And because she's done the same thing of being easily triggered in other interviews, she's showing herself to enjoy belittling others.
@@awsinger1 right?! Oh absolutely she would! I never understood when ppl would comment anything at all honestly! Like you don’t think I know I’m getting bigger I’m growing a baby for gosh sakes! Lol my grandma told me back in the day drs only let them gain 15 that wasn’t me I had preeclampsia so I looked more swollen than I was. Blake keeps having kids she’s going to keep being congratulated! Lol I am watching old interviews and can’t believe no one notice the mean streak!
With my first pregnancy I was asked repeatedly by strangers if I was carrying twins. Nope, just one but thanks for making me feel like a whale! But seriously, congratulating Blake on her pregnancy when she's already announced it publicly was perfectly normal behavior and Blake is wild for getting offended over it.
It looks to me like Blake was trying to follow the fabulous leads set by Scarlett and other women who *correctly* identify misogynistic inquiries and respond appropriately. Unfortunately she failed spectacularly at this and it was annoying and pathetic to watch. The interviewer said and did nothing wrong and was perfectly polite. No one deserves to be bullied, and Blake doesn't deserve the platform she was being given here, as she clearly will take any opportunity to just be a snotty fool. Really disappointed to see women beating down on other women in the name of feminism. If you do that, you're missing the mark. Internalized misogyny at its most aggravating, right there.
The irony is that Blake Lively said in an interview about "It Ends with Us" something to the effect of wearing your floral dresses or some garbage like that.
@@jet6110the book she adapted it from is about Domestic Violence and SA. In her interviews she focused on the clothes and acted superficial. Haven’t seen the movie. Only the book. Storytelling style is very young in audience. I thought the book would be rom com. But it was very triggering. Lively didn’t promote it as serious, only talking visuals and her clothes for the movie. She was sarcastic when an interviewer asked what if someone came to her to ask for advice after seeing the film. She was impolite on other occasions too. Mostly everyone is angry she handled a very serious subject with not much sensitivity. Hope that helps. Have a good day
@@Livewell-xgi oh thanks for the explanation! It did help. I work with women and children in DV/abuse situations. Good to know. I have no clue about the book or movie but I might purchase the book. I'm a bookworm. Not surprised .. celebs are often self absorbed.
@@jet6110 thank you for the work you do. 🙏 In that case I would definitely recommend the book. It is a powerful story. About breaking the cycle of abuse. It also shows how subtle it starts and how people end up in abusive situations. It reminds us to be compassionate and never to ask “why doesn’t she just leave?” But yes, when a person is rich and famous they are often self involved. Putting humans on pedestals will always disappoint.
I haven’t seen Cafe Society. I haven’t seen It Ends With Us. I did study TV/Film for two years in college. Clothes are used as tools to help tell a story. When someone asks about the clothes a character wears, it’s a much deeper question than if you ask a random person on the street about their clothes. Outfits in film are specifically chosen for what they contribute. Costume design is an entire department. I do agree that actresses get asked about their clothes more often than actors, and I do think there’s something to be said about it, but that’s probably more to do with a reporter that doesn’t understand what they’re asking than with sexism. It’s a very valid question for an actor or actress. Clothes in film convey a lot of meaning about a character.
I just watched the movie and let me tell you, the fashion in "it ends with us" was horrible. It tried too hard to be mismatched and oversized that it ruined the look. I even hated Blake's hair. It was too messy, like intentionally messy to make her out to be carefree. It didn't work. And the shoes she wore in the movie, absolutely awful.
@@csc7211 Bad behaviour to be sure but at least more forthright - Blake was the instigator and wore a big perfect plastic smile. In my books, that's worse - shows a more slippery person, very adept at fakeness. Posey looked fed up. Blake was like I'm Loving This.
Never thought much of Parker Posey as an actress myself. I couldn't believe the interview - me and my wife just kept exchanging astonished looks at each other as if to say, "what on Earth are we watching?!" The behaviour of both Lively and Posey was infantile, puerile, unnecessary and spiteful beyond words. Both of them were beyond the pale.
I always wondered why people idolized Blake. She was always so obnoxious in interviews. She wasn't even the best cast in Gossip Girl. I loved it when Anna Kendrick was dragging her down😂
As the comment above me said, they did an interview together and Anna said “yeah I thought she was nice but then I actually met her…” and she was joking but now people think she was partially telling the truth.
Because many women don't think for themselves. They just follow whatever celebrity they are told to follow. I believe Blake was also one of "Harvey's girls".
@@RachelRichardsI can’t remember what year this is from but there’s a vid on here on UA-cam showing Oprah speaking speaking at a function with Michelle Obama sitting in the background with Blake sitting next to her. Everyone knows that Oprah & Harvey were best friends.
The funny thing is that I have seen an interview with Ryan Reynolds when he was promoting "Life" and they asked how he liked the clothes for the movie because it was essentially a giant onsie with socks and he loved it.
Blake was asked about the wardrobe in “It Ends With Us’ in a video she did for Vogue and had no problem with it. She said she took inspo from Ryan and one of the Hadid sisters for Lily’s wardrobe. She loves fashion, not ppl commenting on her body.
@@desiree5895 Which is why when asked about the fashion in this interview, she (rather than answering the question) blew up about if a guy would've been asked the same question, I'm sure?
@@desiree5895 It wasn’t comment but congratulations. She was 8th months pregnant and it is normal and polite to congratulate and even to ask pregnant lady is she feeling cold or did she need something. At least in Europe.
Having been pregnant before, it truly is about intent. My whole pregnancy was based around “you look so tiny” and “you can’t even tell you’re pregnant” which made me annoyed that people only saw my body in a light of something I truly can’t control. BUT did I think people were being insensitive or were out of line? No. People just view that as a compliment or don’t think about it as deeply as a pregnant woman does. That lady was obviously trying to be thoughtful. Really can’t defend Blake on this, she was blatantly rude.
OMGGGG yes i went through the same thing when i was pregnant. Was it annoying or could they have not said anything about my pregnant body? Definitely. But like you said, it’s not something that we can control so i try my best to just brush it off. But in this case, if people were to specifically say “congrats on your little bump”, I would’ve just said thanks and move along🤷🏻♀️ But just my opinion though 😬
I just had my first baby earlier this year, and while I was pregnant I was working in a whiskey lounge as a waitress. So lots of people slowly getting a little inebriated interacting with me, which meant usually by the time they got their check, they at some point blurted out something along the lines about how l looked super pregnant. I guess I could have gotten upset, but it was pretty clear literally every single one of them was asking to be supportive and because they were either happy for me or just felt they should say something to acknowledge it and congratulate me. Sometimes the phrasing was awkward, but it was clear they were just trying to say something nice to me and didn’t always know how to do it. So I always smiled and thanked them, asked them if they had any kids and if they did if they had any tips. It’s not very hard to just accept a kind gesture for what it is, even if it comes out weird and return it in kind. And it was great because people then became very supportive of me and it honestly really did help me not feel overwhelmed.
And to clarify, the interviewer congratulated her on her pregnancy which Blake had announced publicly already. She wasn't asking her IF she was pregnant or saying how big she was, etc. which are different.
Similar experience here, waited tables for a while when pregnant with my first. I remember a super happy drunk guy turned to me when I approached the table, and when he saw my huge belly, his eyes lit up, and just goes “Ohhhh!”, and puts his hand on my stomach. He looked so damn happy there was no way I could be mad! His friends were horrified and was so embarrassed but I laughed it off and it was fine. So funny.
She did it to herself. The internet holds the karma from patterns of behavior over decades, until karma is ready to reveal itself. Lively had a choice to treat others the way she did. The truth eventually comes out.
The question about the costumes was a golden missed opportunity to talk about the costume designer for the movie - Suzy Benzinger. Hype up a female colleague and promote the movie gracefully. BAM - feminism ...
Blake is the worst possible choice to represent domestic violence. This was a huge shame and embarrassment. Coming from a dv victim, I’m just beyond disappointed. Also the “are you a woody Allen fan?” Am I a fan of pedos? Talk about triggers left and right.
I always saw her as a mean girl, it was just something about her that gave me that feeling. She might be another Chrissy Tiegen, asked to lay low because so many things have surfaced.
Blake is all about her clothes. You don’t have to ask as she will go on forever about how clever she is with styling herself and all her pals 🙄. Bragging about all her businesses and how she’s basically a goddess.
She is, true, like hello met gala. but what gets me is the interviewer isn’t even asking about her clothes. She’s about costumes which is very different than an interviewer asking what someone is wearing to a premiere. That’s why I don’t get why Blake was so snippy, it’s perfectly reasonable to ask about costumes in a period film. Blake was ridiculous.
I've said this for years...Blake and Ryan come off as 1000% fake nice and the type of people that would instantly shit talk you the second your back was turned...yet for some reason that has never made sense to me everyone loves them, they're one of the "it" couples of Hollywood. Like why?!?! Everything about their "nice personas" for years comes off as fake and forced, I'm glad people are starting to acknowledge how Blake has been quite openly a toxic person all along...maybe next everyone want to stop stroking Ryan's ego and acknowledge he's just the funny male version of Blake.
That's pretty much how I saw Ryan when he first showed up on the scene. The last name made me think he was a rich kid who got a leg up in hollywood. His acting was terrible at first; really forced and it often felt like he was trying hard to be like a more snarky Jim Carrey with less of the comedic expressions. He's improved a lot at acting over the years, but the interviews often have that mix of fake nice and attempts at snark that often get treated as just humor. It's said that you can know a lot about a person that they don't show by who they choose to have as their significant other; considering who he's with, it does make you wonder what he's really like privately. As for why it is this way you asked, it's one of the drawbacks to the dynamics of how things often go in this fallen world. "What is successful is usually popular." "What is popular is decided by the majority." "You're just hating because he/she is popular." "The majority of people are often dumb." Lots of people are filled with cognitive dissonance. I mean, heck, look at politics for a prime example. Most people don't bother to learn the real details of anything and instead just make their decisions according to how "nice" and "kind" the politician seems. Each election year, the same people vote for the candidate that says the nicest things, make the big promises, then once in office they don't do any of that. Rinse repeat. Lots of people in this world say they want the truth, but most seem to really just want in-the-moment nice sounding comforting lies. It's what makes society so easily manipulated.
@@Yurgaay I get what you are saying, and I generally separate the art from the artist...that being said, a lot of people don't. Plus they/their people highlight them as role models and a lot of young people look up to them that makes it worth calling out.
Is it offense or insecurity? Blake is largely cast for roles with lots of sex appeal. Her looks and body are part of what has made her a household name. Pregnancy took that away from her. I think her reaction is an offshoot of that, not from offense. She felt insecure for having her belly pointed out (my guess, for the first time in her life) and she snapped at the interviewer. It's not her fault for believing her worth is largely tied to her sex-appeal/body, because for her, it actually is.
That is not Blakes issue. The interviewers personal stuff has nothing to do with Blake or a work place interview. Blake was a bitch but doesnt deserve all this hate for having a bad day for a poor interview. The interviewer was not great
The interviewer shouldn’t have mentioned Blake’s bump. I got so sick of this kind of behavior when I was pregnant each time. I turned off a lot of annoying people. Also, the interviewer is suppose to control the interview and she didn’t. Poor interview and interviewer. Could Blake have been gracious anyway, maybe but I was not gracious many times while also working in the corporate world. All of a sudden, pregnant women are invisible and it’s all about the bump.
It was just quick pleasantries to break the ice since Blake just publicly announced her pregnancy. If you don't want people talking about a major life moment, don't tell anyone. And you don't control an interview; you guide it. There's nothing you can do with a difficult guest. If they choose to just sit there, you can't control them to talk. Celebrities know they have to do these interviews as part of their job. It sucks having the same inane conversation every 5 minutes for hours, but they do it. Especially so they don't get clips like this tarnishing themselves and the movie.
I have always said it. Blake and her husband give me major Actor vibes. I always feel like theyre "private personas" are actually also just roles they are always playing in public meanwhile in reality they are waaaay different. Everything about them feels calculated to me
People forget that the reason he felt the need to "do right" for Deadpool is because he originally made Deadpool a laughing stock and he got a shit ton of blow back for how bad it was. And then there was the Green Lantern. You are 100% correct, they are just actors who are obsessed with themselves and their self image.
The funny thing about that Blake Lively interview was that her attempt to be a feminist girl boss, was at the expense of ANOTHER WOMAN.
@@Manhattan384 They eat their own.
It’s about power, not about helping women, or anybody other than themselves. And that’s why they eat their own. A bunch of people who are fighting for power. The same happens for the extreme right though. Collectivism is the problem. Every time you assign individuals to a group, and shame them or praise them for that…
@@Carloss86py You get it 👌🏾

@@Indylimburg Well, some literally do...
Top it off, the interviewer is infertile and has said it was very hurtful because she will never have a little bump to say that she is pregnant
Edit: I didn't expect this to get so much attention. Thanks for 8k, but there is war in the comments rn, anyway. God bless ya'll
Yikes
and Blake knew that before the interview right? Because that's the only way it can make a difference otherwise its was just plain rude not rude and in bad taste
This snow flake interviewer needs to toughen up.
Omg
@@ShhTime
Her making the comment was unnecessary regardless.
The problem with highly paid actors is they start to believe they are worth it. Just plain low class.
Blake was always going to go for the high publicity Hollywood hubby and try to be a "I've got it all gal" in the publics view.. she was dumped by Leo DiCaprio only weeks before she got with Ryan bc she wanted marriage and kids to lock in the relationship on a Brad and Angie level.. she's very ambitious..scarily ambitious from what I've seen..
Don't forget Penn Badgley (Blake's ex boyfriend, Dan from Gossip Girl) is friends with Justin Baldoni and doesn't even follow Blake Lively. Lol. 😂 He only follows Leighton Meester.
Kind of like this UA-camr thinks her opinions are worth anything.
Sone actors forget that they are just acting. That they are not really the impressive person they are impersonating.
I'm sure Blake is likely not that horrible lol. But feminism has a way of rotting things it touches.
That's the real villain here. It's the reason why Captain Marvel can't understand why people find it hard to like her.
Some women handle the subtle rot better than others tho.

Scarlet Johansson was right in my opinion. "Since when do people ask each other if they are wearing underwear in an interview?"
Wearing tight clothes isn't an excuse to ask someone that.
Agreed. That was creepy
Blake tries way too hard to come off as a girl boss when in reality, she is just being mean.
But why
Many such cases. Women don’t understand that men have to use restraint because if they’re too much of an asshole another man who feels too disrespected will just punch them out. Women never have to fear getting knocked tf out so they have no chill when they try to be girl-bosses. Like drunk girls swinging at a nightclub bouncer with no idea how badly that would go for them if they were a dude
@@rojayreid908why is she being mean? Because she wants to

Thank you for mentioning this part. I was hoping to see this in the comments.
Sorry but Blake doesnt know this. Plus no one in the work place in a work interview should ever be dealt with people commenting on their body. It was in not the time. Ask her about her work and if at the end it feels like you have good rapport then give a congrats to the pregnancy. Dont call it a bump. Blake was a bitch but I would have been too!
She didn’t know that at the time of the interview, but it didn’t make what Blake said any less rude. I just don’t understand what possessed Blake to be so rude in that interview, she and her co star were completely in the wrong. I feel awful for that journalist that interviewed them
@@jaydas8976 agree .Blake was Rude. But the interviewer should never mentioned it. They are in a work environment. not appropriate. Especially calling it a bump. That was uncomfortable.

Yes, but the interviewer was rude first. Etiquette 101 - It has always been considered extremely rude to talk about a pregnant woman's stomach. Announcing one's pregnancy isn't an invitation for a stranger to discuss one's stomach. Ideally, Blake would have just stared at her in disbelief.

@@veronicaleon8075 Both PP and BL seem to be enjoying themselves. No hurt on their faces - just mischief. I should have said they were HOPING to be offended (instead of expecting). They wanted an excuse for their bullying.
Impossible to know but I wonder if the interviewer hadn’t complimented the bump, what Blake would have tried to be offended by instead. The poor woman was most likely never going to win.
Parker Posy is a nobody in Hollywood these days and cannot afford this type of PR. I didn’t even realize who she was until they said her name.
Blake and her little rude buddy were so very rude and disrespectful to the interviewer. Very bad taste for both those rude actors. Shame

The hurt in the interviewers voice is real, she's just trying to have some girl to girl talk. Brutal.

Norwegian here. We are definitely more blunt than the average American. It's virtually impossible to construe someone's congrats on your pregnancy as a bad thing here. And a baby bump is beautiful, healthy and unproblematic.
We demonize pregnancy in the U.S. stay single forever and killing a child in the third trimester is celebrated.
Roe v Wade was overturned and put the power back to the states and people act like abortion is completely banned. Even conservative states have about the same policy on abortion as Europe. The west is falling.
Except the interviewer was not pregnant, and in fact was infertile.
Just have the feeling that if the reporter had failed to acknowledge the baby bump, Blake would have vilified the reporter for objectifying her.
Not to a shallow b that gets off on being skinny and tall her whole life.
And the interesting thing is that Blake had already announced her pregnancy publicly well before the interview with Kjersti. She wasn't asking if she was pregnant, which is different, but congratulating her, which was a friendly starter.
Does anyone else remember when an interviewer asked Martin Short about his wife, not knowing that she had passed???
He could've made something out of it, but he handled it so gently. He has class.
Scarlet Johansson had genuine reason to address inappropriate questions to her, like the underwear one. But even then, she wasn’t rude. But Blake was trying to make herself self-important. Asking about the wardrobe of a 1930s film wasn’t sexist at all. In fact, many articles mentioned the wardrobe. Blake is just so rude.
Nah she overreacted too. Men get the same silly questions. Depends on the outlet.
I hated when Brett said that’s not the worst question, because this question just redirects the viewers from learning more about the movie to imagining Scarlet nit wearing any underwear and it targets predators
Exactly 💯
Blake lives in the town I grew up in. Not that I've met her personally, but everyone I know who has say that she's lovely. My friend worked at their pharmacy and she was apparently very nice whenever she came in. She told me Ryan Reynolds is more introverted and keeps his head down, but Blake is very personable and would start up conversations with whoever was working.
People have bad days and pregnancy definitely messes with everyone's hormones. Do I think she came off very rude from this interview? Yes. But she's a person and we all get into moods and do/say things we later regret. Unfortunately, she has to be recorded for a majority of her job and those moments get published to the world.

The other day I saw a interview of I think Emily Blunt and the male interviewer asked her how she got in “prefect shape” to play cat woman and she was like “why are you trying to lose weight?” Lol it was hilarious and lots of ppl praise her for how she responded. It was a harmless question (besides “perfect” *cringe*) but I think a big issue is that in that industry they focus a lot, too much even, on how ppl look and they’re always commenting on how attractive or unattractive they are and told they need to look a certain way. Blake ofc has probably felt that pressure. It was definitely an odd way to congratulate her too. She took it the wrong way but I’m not mad at how she responded.
In Australia, it’s pretty common to congratulate a pregnancy by saying “congrats on the little bump”. Blake was so rude to fat shame her after. The fact that Blake and Parker then chatted like she wasn’t in the room was so awkward and gave me high school bitch energy. I felt so bad for the interviewer.

And he didn't. He has a back injury and because the script called for him to lift her up, he asked his set trainer how he could best handle it and how much she weighed. She made stuff up.
Also many people are fit while having a high weight. Muscle literally weights higher than fat. I bet Justin himself is overweight by bmi standards considering how much muscle he has.
I have a degree in journalism. I had such a visceral reaction to watching this Blake lively interview. It made me want to vomit. Honestly kudos to the interviewer for remaining professional. I think I would have walked out. It’s such a bully behavior to sit and have a conversation on the side. You know their PR people are there watching the whole thing. I’m wondering why it’s just coming out now. Was it buried to save face? The actresses should be embarrassed.
I felt awful for her. When they were all "Does anyone ask THE MEN about clothes?!" I believed the poor interviewer when she said "I would..."
She didn't sound defensive, just sad.
I also have a degree in Journalism and worked in television. The claim that reporters were asked beforehand not to mention the pregnancy is unconfirmed, as far as I know, but it would explain why the situation reads as though we're missing context. I agree that you have to wonder why this is coming out now. If the reporter accidentally missed the pregnancy-memo or forgot the agreement and the actresses assumed she was being purposefully disrespectful (maybe another interviewer had pushed the issue before this moment), why publish this at all? Especially using click-baity terms like 'my nightmare interview' and 'the interview that made me want to quit my job'. Lively's reaction is so strange and rude, it's hard to imagine anyone would react like that without reason, especially considering the almost protective behavior of her co-star. It's also hard to believe the reporter never figured out why they reacted like this. She claims that at the time, she chose not to publish because "she wouldn't have a career now". Seems like someone picked just the right moment to publish at last. I don't know, something is off.
These actresses should be more than embarrassed. They are low class, mediocre at best at their profession and should probably exit the limelight - but of course, Blake is a narcissist and unable to give up the shiny bling bling high life!
@@YOLOlynn thank you for saying this. Like you said, something's not right. When I first saw the video title I expected something waaaaay worse than this. I remember thinking "...that was it? that was the interview that almost made her quit her job?" after watching the clip. Also I have to say that I've watched quite a lot of celebrity interviews where someone was pregnant and if I recall all the reporters/hosts have always said "congratulations on your pregnancy", a very neutral line. I don't really understand why the reporter had to use the word "bump"? It sounds a bit weird to me in that setting and I'm from the Nordics too. Did SHE actually want to get a reaction out of Lively?? And why was she so vague about the clothing question? It left a lot of room for misunderstanding. She could have said something like "this film takes place in 1930s. What are your thoughts on clothes from that era and were they represented appropriately in the film?" etc. - to really emphasize the fact that the film is a period piece and costume design was a big deal in that film. But... she didn't.
The timing of this video to resurface was also a liiiittle too convenient. I dunno, this reporter isn't as clueless and innocent as she paints herself to be.
Soooo back then Blake tried to be Scarlett johanssen with her own 'empowerment' moment, now she's tryna be Margot Robbie to have another barbenheimer moment lol so pathetic
What does Margot have to do with this?
@@AmiraLeoMargot Robbie got lucky last summer and managed to pull off a bizarre marketing campaign with the Oppenheimer movie, colloquially known as the “barbenheimer” movie summer and it saved Margot Robbie’s career. While Blake wasn’t looking to save her career (it didn’t need saving until now), she was trying to emulate the “barbenheimer” effect by doubling up “It Ends With Us”and “Deadpool & Wolverine” on her promotional tour.
Didn’t she also married Scarlett ex
@@user-bleach1256
Yes
@@johnathanbowers5433 got it, thanks for explaining! Although, I didn't know that this campaign came from their side and imo her career didn't need saving. Anyways, nice to see someone reply in a helpful and nice way! :)
Saying "congrats to your bump" to a nonpregnant woman is a big mean girl move. Karma, do your thing!
There is a difference between asking weather she is wearing underwear and not and then wanting to have a conversation about the costume design, which some people worked really hard on
Plus it takes place in the 1930s and articles written about the film also mentioned wardrobe. It was a natural question to ask. She's offended by everything.
I also feel like the gender of the person asking plays a big part in how a question is perceived. I know we like to pretend the genders are totally equal in every scenario but that’s just not the case.
If a woman asked me if I was wearing underwear in a tight outfit, I would assume it’s because she has dealt with the struggle of annoying panty lines and is genuinely curious if I just had to skip it or if I found a pair that worked to avoid them. If a man asked if I was wearing underwear, I would question his intentions. He probably doesn’t have any experience wearing thin, skintight pants as they are not in for men so he has no reason to ask besides being curious about my undergarments which can come off as a little sexually inappropriate. Like why does him knowing if I’m wearing underwear matter? Just seems weird, especially if he is a straight man because the dynamic is different there as well.
If Blake wanted her “girl boss” sexist question shutdown moment, she should’ve waited for an inappropriate question from a man - not a fashion question from a woman working for a fashion magazine like come on.
@@cc1526 yes really good point. Poor woman, she was actually interested in bearing their opinions and happy about the pregnancy. The male interviewer was a bit sleeky, but the female interviewer had genuine intentions
Yeah, I was thinking what a great opportunity to give praise to the costume designer!
Thank you!
Parker Posey looks like a miserable, drunk, both her and Blake were just gross.
Ryan Reynolds’s proud of this, bullying another woman? He probably has no say! 😂
She does!!! Like why is stroking that pillow so weirdly??!
She looked wasted 😮
She is background noise
Some people have resting B!tch face. Parker Posey has resting drunk face. But she did seem to be trying to deflect the awkwardness with jokes about her own butt and trying to get the interview back on track.
And the interviewer seems more hurt about Blake Lively's comments and attitude than Parker Posey's answers.
Blakes behaviour was so gross here, i'll actually never look at her the same after this. I despise mean girls!!
I posted this to someone else, but I think it should go here too.
Blake lives in the town I grew up in. Not that I've met her personally, but everyone I know who has say that she's lovely. My friend worked at their pharmacy and she was apparently very nice whenever she came in. She told me Ryan Reynolds is more introverted and keeps his head down, but Blake is very personable and would start up conversations with whoever was working.
People have bad days and pregnancy definitely messes with everyone's hormones. Do I think she came off very rude from this interview? Yes. But she's a person and we all get into moods and do/say things we later regret. Unfortunately, she has to be recorded for a majority of her job and those moments get published to the world.
I feel the same way.

@@yamerojones no because she is rude? having kids doesnt make you immune to criticism
Blake thinks she is same caliber as Scarlett.
That itself is laughable. I remember thinking like 8 years ago, WHY is Blake lively still relevant? She’s just married to Ryan Reynolds. That’s great for real life and their family, but why does it merit public lionization?
She is the C-list version of Scarlett profession wise. Ryan could not cope with having a wife so much more talented and successful than him so he sought out a simple woman to marry. Seems to have made a smart choise, four kids later still married.
SO TRUE
People love who they love could not cope someone successful and more talented than him ? pretty sure you are not Ryan Reynolds maybe if you were him would have done that i guess 🗿
@@Lillian.Gao.other than her red carpet looks, and let's be honest she is beautiful and slays the red carpet, she isn't relevant to mainstream audiences. I think the main reason this is blowing up is because she wanted to capitalize off of Deadpool and Wolverine attention.
I love that the interviewer saw an opportunity to get revenge and she went for it. Good for her!
Same thought.
And I love the fact that all she had to do was share an interview that was always meant to be shared for publicity for the movie. The interviewer didn't reveal Blake''s character. She did that all on her own...actually, she did it alongside Parker. 😂
I’m glad she did. She spoke her peace.
Revenge really is a dish best served cold.
The interviewer said that she interviewed Kristen Stewart (who was also in the film) right after this and thanked her for being so kind. I recommend everyone watch Kristen’s interview for contrast. She kept it real no Hollywood ego.
Meh - maybe Kristen is more down-to-earth, certainly, but let's not pretend she's not also off her rocker in her own way. That girl has gone totally mental the past few years. Hollyweird is just the scummiest WEIRDEST place.
Yeah I’ve always heard nothing but raves about Kristen as a person from non-celebs who interact w her
I have never seen a Blake Lively movie and certainly have no desire to see anything she is in after seeing these.
Blake is showing that she’s way too practiced and skilled at being nasty. The fact that she didn’t miss a beat shows that there is authenticity to this behavior. I’m currently pregnant and this interviewer said nothing wrong! What’s so sad is that the interviewer was struggling with infertility. The whole thing is uncomfortable to watch.
She's being selfish and rude and overly sensitive.
Exactly - very at ease and familiar with being a bully. And then plastering a big fake smile across her face when the journo leaves looking slightly shaken. Make no mistake - for Blake, that meant success!
Exactly. When someone says something really nasty to you, it takes a while to process, let it sink in, and to realize that it was nasty and that you're hurt. Blake didn't even waste a second to bite back after what was meant as a compliment, as if she was waiting for something to react offended to. The interviewer, on the other hand, didn't know how to react to Blake's offense at first...
Justin got crisis PR about it turns out Blake was the one who needed it more.
I think that was smart of him. She’s the more famous name, and she was clearly trying to direct negativity towards him by leaking stories about how he “made her uncomfortable” and asked about her weight.
I think he got that in defense of Blake and what she might throw out in gossips about him..and all bc Blake kinda bullied him into dominating the script since he owned the rights for it. She and Ryan both seemed to bully him and make him come off as the bad guy in this movies production. Looks like they want all the credit..
@deltadarling23 Yup. She did. Even though she directed the scene and showed him how to "grab her and where" and it's recorded in outtakes..
I agree it was smart of him. He wasn't in the wrong, but you don't have to be guilty to get smeared. But he probably didn't think the general public would side with him. Nor was he looking for beef.
I'm still sad he got his movie stolen and his script changed during the SAG strike. Very unprofessional. Shouldn't even happen at all.
The same woman who just said her childhood dream was to wear Britney Spear's dress is offended by a question about clothing.
She wasn't actually offended, just pretending to be. She seemed to enjoy hurting that woman.
😂😂😂
I think its more. Ask me a question about my work first.
@@RachelRichardsyes she did enjoy it, didn't she? 😅 How cruel
@@RachelRichards Yup, she is 100% a psychopath. Gleefully delighting in causing unnecessary pain.
How quickly you can lose respect for two pretentious actors who feel they're so far 'above' everyone else --- I used to love Blake, but her true colors are now showing. Pretty sad.
Also, let’s be fair, Scar Jo was basically being sexual harassed, the question was inappropriate and she called the interviewer out on it. That’s a girl boss! On the other hand, Blake Brown was being congratulated by the interviewer on her publicized pregnancy, if not, a very visible pregnancy, and she was so passive aggressive and rude to another woman. That’s a mean girl.
How is that question sexual harassment? 😂
Well, Blake wants to get to SacrJo levels that she will never be capable of, and let’s not forget to whom Ryan was married first.
Have people lost all understanding of what words mean... she was being "harassed"? Grow up.
It's like listening to any woman in 2024 use the word "oppression"... they don't know what that word means. She makes millions of dollars for having a fit ass and wearing tight clothes... god forbid folks talk about it.
Women are tiresome in general.
@@statebriga8527I dunno, asking a stranger about there underwear or lack there of is uncomfortable and unnecessary
@@statebriga8527 do people ask you about your underwear when you're at work? It was creepy af.
A woman asked another woman about her style, wtf those 2 women turned it into something that was a perfectly harmless question.
And the film took place in the 1930s so articles written about it were even mentioning the wardrobe/ costume. She's so rude.
It's so bizarre. Women's fashion culture is centered around the attention of other women. Who's buying the fashion magazines? Who's shopping for the clothes? Who follows the influencers? For Blake to act like that topic of conversation is beneath her is incredibly disingenuous.
It's interesting because Parker seemed like she was really going to have a good answer. She said things are going "digital" and I really wanted her to finish her thoughts, but she was interrupted by Blake.
Scar Jo answered it well. She was not bitchy. She was like cmon are you serious but she was not mean about it.
Exactly. SJ just verbalised her dislike to the question, whereas Blake is plain nasty to the interviewer! Such a huge difference.
Yeah and the question scarlett was asked actually was super inappropriate. Blake's wasn't inappropriate and she handled it so badly
In my own opinion she was very rude as well specially seeing how she ignored the interviewer and how she rolled her eyes after she left.

@@xeniabutko1313 oh ok got thank you
I lost respect for her...I hate narcissists, bullying and mean girls... She needs to be cancelled immediately!
Absolutely!!! What a piece of garbage she is.
"Congratulations on your bump" is like the most gentle and sweet way of pointing out someone is pregnant. Imagine getting offended by something so silly.
That really does seem completely harmless. And the way the interviewer said it was completely genuine. The response was brutal. I can watch boxers in a ring beat each other up for 10 rounds and not flinch but watching the hurt on the interviewer's face had me squirming.
Congrats on your bump✔️ Congrats on your baby✅ both are fine baby's sweet, bump seems odd but harmless
1. She's hormonal 2. Commenting on someone's body when they are sensitive is not okay.... just because you think it's fine doesn't mean that other woman won't find it triggering.. there are other ways to congratulate someone on their pregnancy without commenting about their body; especially when she clearly doesn't even have a bump yet.
@@Ninja563 That's absurd. Pregnant women are not untouchable goddesses. My wife has been pregnant 4 times. Not once has she been so petty as to take an OBVIOUSLY kind comment in such a petty fashion.
You don't get a pass to be a total asshole just because you're pregnant. This interviewer was congratulating her on her pregnancy. "Your bump" is a reference to the baby in her womb. OBVIOUSLY.
@SeraphsWitness okay? Did your wife deal with body dysphomia? You do realize just because you're wife didn't do something doesn't mean all woman magically don't deal with it. I know of a lot of woman who would be offended by that comment. Woman who have trouble with miscarriages as well because you're commenting on something they are struggling with and they feel like that kind of comment is mocking especially so early on. We don't know how she was handling her pregnancy and it's a weird thing to comment on. When I was pregnant, thank God no one commented on my body or I would have found it extremely weird and make me uncomfortable. They always just ask how the baby was doing instead of how big I was getting like you should.
Ego is the Achilles heel of these celebrities.
The presence of an ego is good. Taking care of #1 is an important thing to do. What is bad is the excess of an ego, the exaltation of it.
Ego requires a lot of skill and intelligence to be handled. It’s a slippery slope, because as a actor you need it, if you wanna get roles in movies, but you also must hold and contain it, if you wanna stay a decent person.
When people show you who they are, believe them.
WOW I am so glad to have found this. This is the first time I've been to this channel and holy moly you hit so many nails on the head, I'm gonna have to watch this again! I watched the interview, then the Kristin Stewart interview which followed and made Kjersti Flaa feel a little less awful about what happened in the Black/Parker disaster, and also Flaa's subsequent thank you video in response to it all, where she revealed how much more it hurt her considering her own fertility struggles. There is so much to unpack. Well done, thank you for digging deep here. 👏
Am I the only one who just didn’t like Blake before this whole ‘it ends with us’ saga? She has always been a one dimensional actor. She is pretty and that’s it about her. She never gave me good vibes. Nothing about her drama today is surprising to me.

You shouldn’t be surprised by Parker Posey. She is one of the OG Mean Girls and Blake is clearly tryna match her energy. Blake = L

Blake just seems extremely insecure. After watching all of these clips, it just really seems like she talks herself into holes she can't get out of, instead of just relaxing.
I suspect narcissism. In a short amount of time in one clip, she shows she's thin-skinned (reaction to bump), then manipulates to assert control (rejection of journalist's question) then passive aggressiveness to lock that in (private convo to railroad journalist) and then ends with a big fake smile plastered across her face when journo leaves a bit dejected. (Success!!)
That the journo is an attractive blonde probably didn't help matters!
I thought Blake was cute and I liked her and Ryan together. Then she showed her true colors by her petty, juvenile bullying of princess Catherine while she was dealing with a cancer diagnosis and treatment. Blake showed she is just a mean girl. And when she "apologized", it was insincere and she didn't even have enough decency to make it to Catherine. It was a vague, non apology. She is a juvenile mean girl.

Excellent point, Brett - I remember a Marvel panel where Scarlett was the only woman present and all the men were asked about how they got into character, what is their character's motivation, what's their character's growth been like since the previous movie, how hard is it to do the action scenes, how hard is it to be away from loved ones, etc., and then they asked Scarlett if she went on a diet to stay skinny. She was upset, and in that context it was understandable. But even then (as in the example you showed, Brett, about the underwear question), she tried to respond in a bantering way, without getting rude and without shutting down the whole thing.
Blake and Parker in this interview absolutely shut down the interviewer from the jump - and didn't even care that they were doing that to a woman, too! They both went in with chips on their shoulders and something to prove and yes, it was absolutely like mean girls. So disappointing.
They did have some mean girl energy in that interview. They looked like snobby entitled rich girls.
Okay, so I'm pregnant and the things people say to me are more like "omg you're huge" "you've totally exploded since I saw you last week" "I wondered if you'd been eating all the pies or if you were pregnant" and everyone looks at my belly before they look at my face when they first see me. But I know they mean well, and I just try to embrace it! I smile and say thank you to comments like that! If someone says "congrats on your little bump" I would love that compared to what people say to me!
Haha girl I feel you! the best one I got when I was pregnant was, “omg you look like a marshmallow holding up a toothpick!” That was a new one. I legit cried right in front of them. I would have given anything for a cute little bump comment for BOTH my pregnancies!
@mrsholloman12 Omg no way 😭😭🤣🤣 Imagine if someone said that to Blake Lively, she'd probably start a whole new movement 🤣 Worst part is, I feel like I love my preggo body and my bump is cute and I expected to put on more weight than this, yet people still love to tell me how extremely enormous I am 🤣🤣
And there's a difference between asking someone if they're pregnant (because you see a something) vs. congratulating and being happy for a pregnancy. Blake doesn't seem to know the difference. And because she's done the same thing of being easily triggered in other interviews, she's showing herself to enjoy belittling others.
@@awsinger1 right?! Oh absolutely she would! I never understood when ppl would comment anything at all honestly! Like you don’t think I know I’m getting bigger I’m growing a baby for gosh sakes!

With my first pregnancy I was asked repeatedly by strangers if I was carrying twins. Nope, just one but thanks for making me feel like a whale! But seriously, congratulating Blake on her pregnancy when she's already announced it publicly was perfectly normal behavior and Blake is wild for getting offended over it.
The class of Scarlett, the rudness of Blake
Ryan downgraded for sure.
It looks to me like Blake was trying to follow the fabulous leads set by Scarlett and other women who *correctly* identify misogynistic inquiries and respond appropriately. Unfortunately she failed spectacularly at this and it was annoying and pathetic to watch. The interviewer said and did nothing wrong and was perfectly polite. No one deserves to be bullied, and Blake doesn't deserve the platform she was being given here, as she clearly will take any opportunity to just be a snotty fool. Really disappointed to see women beating down on other women in the name of feminism. If you do that, you're missing the mark. Internalized misogyny at its most aggravating, right there.
Me thinks Blake is just painfully dumb, but actually thinks she's really witty and smart. Lethal combination.
The irony is that Blake Lively said in an interview about "It Ends with Us" something to the effect of wearing your floral dresses or some garbage like that.
She also talked about the importance of fashion to storytelling. Hypocrite.
Can you explain what happened recently that caused everyone to freak out? I don't keep up with celebrity shit.
@@jet6110the book she adapted it from is about Domestic Violence and SA. In her interviews she focused on the clothes and acted superficial. Haven’t seen the movie. Only the book. Storytelling style is very young in audience. I thought the book would be rom com. But it was very triggering. Lively didn’t promote it as serious, only talking visuals and her clothes for the movie. She was sarcastic when an interviewer asked what if someone came to her to ask for advice after seeing the film. She was impolite on other occasions too. Mostly everyone is angry she handled a very serious subject with not much sensitivity. Hope that helps. Have a good day
@@Livewell-xgi oh thanks for the explanation! It did help. I work with women and children in DV/abuse situations. Good to know. I have no clue about the book or movie but I might purchase the book. I'm a bookworm. Not surprised .. celebs are often self absorbed.
@@jet6110 thank you for the work you do. 🙏 In that case I would definitely recommend the book. It is a powerful story. About breaking the cycle of abuse. It also shows how subtle it starts and how people end up in abusive situations. It reminds us to be compassionate and never to ask “why doesn’t she just leave?”
But yes, when a person is rich and famous they are often self involved. Putting humans on pedestals will always disappoint.
I haven’t seen Cafe Society. I haven’t seen It Ends With Us. I did study TV/Film for two years in college. Clothes are used as tools to help tell a story. When someone asks about the clothes a character wears, it’s a much deeper question than if you ask a random person on the street about their clothes. Outfits in film are specifically chosen for what they contribute. Costume design is an entire department. I do agree that actresses get asked about their clothes more often than actors, and I do think there’s something to be said about it, but that’s probably more to do with a reporter that doesn’t understand what they’re asking than with sexism. It’s a very valid question for an actor or actress. Clothes in film convey a lot of meaning about a character.
I just watched the movie and let me tell you, the fashion in "it ends with us" was horrible. It tried too hard to be mismatched and oversized that it ruined the look. I even hated Blake's hair. It was too messy, like intentionally messy to make her out to be carefree. It didn't work. And the shoes she wore in the movie, absolutely awful.
Cannot let Parker Posey off the hook either.
Exactly, she is awful. maybe even more so.
Exactly, and it was Parker Posey who had the mean look at the end, not Blake Lively.
@@csc7211 Bad behaviour to be sure but at least more forthright - Blake was the instigator and wore a big perfect plastic smile. In my books, that's worse - shows a more slippery person, very adept at fakeness. Posey looked fed up. Blake was like I'm Loving This.
Never thought much of Parker Posey as an actress myself.

Because many women don't think for themselves. They just follow whatever celebrity they are told to follow. I believe Blake was also one of "Harvey's girls".

I mean she’s acting like that bitchy bullying character period. Lol
that was my thought lol
…and her character In Don’t Tell Mom The Babysitter’s Dead 😅
No wonder some countries can’t stand Americans. Thanks Blake.
no wonder Blake was so good at playing Serena 🤣
And more so, the character Emily from A Simple Favor.
Cuz she wasn’t acting, she was being herself.
@@HandsomeMalcolmcats she basically played her normal self in that movie
Definitely! I always preferred Blair
Same thoughts ❤
The interviewer has class, and Blake and Parker don’t. It’s obvious.
The funny thing is that I have seen an interview with Ryan Reynolds when he was promoting "Life" and they asked how he liked the clothes for the movie because it was essentially a giant onsie with socks and he loved it.
Blake was asked about the wardrobe in “It Ends With Us’ in a video she did for Vogue and had no problem with it. She said she took inspo from Ryan and one of the Hadid sisters for Lily’s wardrobe. She loves fashion, not ppl commenting on her body.
@@desiree5895 Which is why when asked about the fashion in this interview, she (rather than answering the question) blew up about if a guy would've been asked the same question, I'm sure?
@@samstromberg5593that is a BlakeBot. Not worth it to engage.

It wasn’t comment but congratulations. She was 8th months pregnant and it is normal and polite to congratulate and even to ask pregnant lady is she feeling cold or did she need something. At least in Europe.
Society needs to get back to just letting celebs entertain us and then forget about them.
Having been pregnant before, it truly is about intent. My whole pregnancy was based around “you look so tiny” and “you can’t even tell you’re pregnant” which made me annoyed that people only saw my body in a light of something I truly can’t control. BUT did I think people were being insensitive or were out of line? No. People just view that as a compliment or don’t think about it as deeply as a pregnant woman does. That lady was obviously trying to be thoughtful. Really can’t defend Blake on this, she was blatantly rude.
That is what Blake’s obnoxious self wanted. Ppl to pretend they couldn’t tell she was pregnant.
OMGGGG yes i went through the same thing when i was pregnant. Was it annoying or could they have not said anything about my pregnant body? Definitely. But like you said, it’s not something that we can control so i try my best to just brush it off. But in this case, if people were to specifically say “congrats on your little bump”, I would’ve just said thanks and move along🤷🏻♀️ But just my opinion though 😬
Idk why its so offending to congrats someone on their baby bumps? Girl, you are making a human in there! Its beautiful and yall should flaunt it.
Absolutely. Always seek to judge someone's words by their intent.
I just had my first baby earlier this year, and while I was pregnant I was working in a whiskey lounge as a waitress. So lots of people slowly getting a little inebriated interacting with me, which meant usually by the time they got their check, they at some point blurted out something along the lines about how l looked super pregnant. I guess I could have gotten upset, but it was pretty clear literally every single one of them was asking to be supportive and because they were either happy for me or just felt they should say something to acknowledge it and congratulate me. Sometimes the phrasing was awkward, but it was clear they were just trying to say something nice to me and didn’t always know how to do it. So I always smiled and thanked them, asked them if they had any kids and if they did if they had any tips. It’s not very hard to just accept a kind gesture for what it is, even if it comes out weird and return it in kind. And it was great because people then became very supportive of me and it honestly really did help me not feel overwhelmed.
And to clarify, the interviewer congratulated her on her pregnancy which Blake had announced publicly already. She wasn't asking her IF she was pregnant or saying how big she was, etc. which are different.
@@bpxl53yewz29 Using "Bump" is a childish phrase, which led to childish insults by the receiver. All parties need to return to school.
@@DDD11239 Don’t know what country you live in but in the U.S using the phrase “baby bump” is absolutely acceptable. It’s friendly language. Smh
@@DDD11239it's definitely not childish.
Similar experience here, waited tables for a while when pregnant with my first. I remember a super happy drunk guy turned to me when I approached the table, and when he saw my huge belly, his eyes lit up, and just goes “Ohhhh!”, and puts his hand on my stomach. He looked so damn happy there was no way I could be mad! His friends were horrified and was so embarrassed but I laughed it off and it was fine. So funny.
Lively must have pissed off the wrong person, this cascade of bad press is not a coincidence...
Yep, I dont like what Im seeing and hearing, but its really weird how its all coming out now, There is a campaign going on.
@@evesapple campaign based on truth. you can clearly see that she is mean and annoying. so,,,,good.
She did it to herself. The internet holds the karma from patterns of behavior over decades, until karma is ready to reveal itself. Lively had a choice to treat others the way she did. The truth eventually comes out.
@@andrecordova571 Nobody said she was being smeared.
Only said someone held off on this bad press on her until just now for a reason
I think she is just too full of herself and is showing her true colors.
The question about the costumes was a golden missed opportunity to talk about the costume designer for the movie - Suzy Benzinger. Hype up a female colleague and promote the movie gracefully. BAM - feminism ...
Blake is the worst possible choice to represent domestic violence. This was a huge shame and embarrassment. Coming from a dv victim, I’m just beyond disappointed. Also the “are you a woody Allen fan?” Am I a fan of pedos? Talk about triggers left and right.
Im super sensitive. If I was that interviewer i wouldve cried as soon as I walked away from them.
I would have cried in front of them! 😢
I’m sensitive too (at least that’s what everyone tells me). But my reaction would have been anger.
Me too. I woulda cried and left.
@@tinabenson1492yup. me too
Life must be tough for you bunch. Can't imagine being that mentally weak.
I always saw her as a mean girl, it was just something about her that gave me that feeling. She might be another Chrissy Tiegen, asked to lay low because so many things have surfaced.
Awful!!! Rude and cringy.
Blake is all about her clothes. You don’t have to ask as she will go on forever about how clever she is with styling herself and all her pals 🙄. Bragging about all her businesses and how she’s basically a goddess.
Dude for real! Her and the whole swifty gang made every football game a fashion show. Her reaction here was so hypocritical.
She is, true, like hello met gala. but what gets me is the interviewer isn’t even asking about her clothes. She’s about costumes which is very different than an interviewer asking what someone is wearing to a premiere. That’s why I don’t get why Blake was so snippy, it’s perfectly reasonable to ask about costumes in a period film. Blake was ridiculous.
I've said this for years...Blake and Ryan come off as 1000% fake nice and the type of people that would instantly shit talk you the second your back was turned...yet for some reason that has never made sense to me everyone loves them, they're one of the "it" couples of Hollywood. Like why?!?! Everything about their "nice personas" for years comes off as fake and forced, I'm glad people are starting to acknowledge how Blake has been quite openly a toxic person all along...maybe next everyone want to stop stroking Ryan's ego and acknowledge he's just the funny male version of Blake.
That's pretty much how I saw Ryan when he first showed up on the scene. The last name made me think he was a rich kid who got a leg up in hollywood. His acting was terrible at first; really forced and it often felt like he was trying hard to be like a more snarky Jim Carrey with less of the comedic expressions. He's improved a lot at acting over the years, but the interviews often have that mix of fake nice and attempts at snark that often get treated as just humor. It's said that you can know a lot about a person that they don't show by who they choose to have as their significant other; considering who he's with, it does make you wonder what he's really like privately.
As for why it is this way you asked, it's one of the drawbacks to the dynamics of how things often go in this fallen world. "What is successful is usually popular." "What is popular is decided by the majority." "You're just hating because he/she is popular." "The majority of people are often dumb." Lots of people are filled with cognitive dissonance.
I mean, heck, look at politics for a prime example. Most people don't bother to learn the real details of anything and instead just make their decisions according to how "nice" and "kind" the politician seems. Each election year, the same people vote for the candidate that says the nicest things, make the big promises, then once in office they don't do any of that. Rinse repeat.
Lots of people in this world say they want the truth, but most seem to really just want in-the-moment nice sounding comforting lies.
It's what makes society so easily manipulated.
Mmhmmmmm I’ve felt that too
Don't care as long as the movies are great... Stop getting personal... He's an actor not a role model
I just got weird vibes from Blake every time I saw her. Glad to know my intuition wasn’t wrong
@@Yurgaay I get what you are saying, and I generally separate the art from the artist...that being said, a lot of people don't. Plus they/their people highlight them as role models and a lot of young people look up to them that makes it worth calling out.
Some women get “offended” by the very things that are part of womanhood
The DEI woke crowd
Is it offense or insecurity? Blake is largely cast for roles with lots of sex appeal. Her looks and body are part of what has made her a household name. Pregnancy took that away from her. I think her reaction is an offshoot of that, not from offense. She felt insecure for having her belly pointed out (my guess, for the first time in her life) and she snapped at the interviewer. It's not her fault for believing her worth is largely tied to her sex-appeal/body, because for her, it actually is.
I'm so done with Hollywood altogether. I couldn't care less
The cherry on top of the cake? Apparently the interviewer was going through infertility issues so this was basically a slap to the face.
That is not Blakes issue. The interviewers personal stuff has nothing to do with Blake or a work place interview. Blake was a bitch but doesnt deserve all this hate for having a bad day for a poor interview. The interviewer was not great
The interviewer shouldn’t have mentioned Blake’s bump. I got so sick of this kind of behavior when I was pregnant each time. I turned off a lot of annoying people. Also, the interviewer is suppose to control the interview and she didn’t. Poor interview and interviewer. Could Blake have been gracious anyway, maybe but I was not gracious many times while also working in the corporate world. All of a sudden, pregnant women are invisible and it’s all about the bump.
@@RamblingGrammydid you even watch the video
@@RamblingGrammy You just seem like you're an ass and bitter person honestly, the interviewer was a very sweet person didn't deserve that.
It was just quick pleasantries to break the ice since Blake just publicly announced her pregnancy. If you don't want people talking about a major life moment, don't tell anyone.
And you don't control an interview; you guide it. There's nothing you can do with a difficult guest. If they choose to just sit there, you can't control them to talk. Celebrities know they have to do these interviews as part of their job. It sucks having the same inane conversation every 5 minutes for hours, but they do it. Especially so they don't get clips like this tarnishing themselves and the movie.
worst of all the interviewer said in her statement about the interview that she's infertile.
thats irrelevant to Blake and the interview. Blake was clearly being a bitch and having a bad day. This is not worthy of all the hate..
I have always said it. Blake and her husband give me major Actor vibes. I always feel like theyre "private personas" are actually also just roles they are always playing in public meanwhile in reality they are waaaay different. Everything about them feels calculated to me
People forget that the reason he felt the need to "do right" for Deadpool is because he originally made Deadpool a laughing stock and he got a shit ton of blow back for how bad it was.
And then there was the Green Lantern.
You are 100% correct, they are just actors who are obsessed with themselves and their self image.
Ha, it went viral for all the right reasons. These are supposed to be the people they want us to look up to. How disgusting to treat people like that!
