Blake Lively, queen of every red carpet and your favorite sarcastic Instagram mom, just got a major shoutout from her Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants squad. Why? Oh, just some casual celebrity-level chaos: a lawsuit, a smear campaign, and a co-star-director who seems to have fumbled the moral compass.
Let’s rewind. Blake, 37, is suing Justin Baldoni, 40, accusing him of some truly shady behavior—including alleged sexual assault and an apparent quest to tank her career faster than a rom-com flop. (We’d say “yikes,” but it feels too mild.) In the fallout, Justin got the boot from his talent agency, which means even Hollywood is raising an eyebrow.
Cue the Sisterhood!
America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn, and Alexis Bledel—Blake’s ride-or-die crew since the early 2000s—put on their metaphorical traveling pants (elastic waistbands, of course, because this situation is uncomfortably tight) and served up a sizzling statement of solidarity. They popped onto Instagram with a message that screamed girl power meets legal drama.
“As Blake’s friends and sisters for over twenty years, we stand with her in solidarity,” the trio wrote, probably while group-texting fire emojis to each other. “We saw her courage firsthand on the set of It Ends With Us, where she simply asked for a safe workplace. Instead, what did she get? A full-blown villain arc from a certain director. The hypocrisy is off the charts.”
The Traveling Pants gang didn’t stop there. They called out how even someone as fabulous and high-profile as Blake can get caught in the web of retaliation for just wanting basic decency. “If Blake can face this nonsense, what chance do the rest of us mere mortals have?” is the energy here. Honestly, where’s the lie?
Oh, and here’s a plot twist for your paperback fantasy: Colleen Hoover, author of the original It Ends With Us book, has also backed Blake. Maybe we can expect a sequel titled It Ends With Us 2: The Retaliation Chronicles?
Stay tuned, because this story is messier than a pair of shared jeans after a road trip. Team Blake is bringing the heat, and we are so here for it.
