Apparently, Justin Baldoni, your friendly neighborhood Hallmark-movie energy guy, is claiming that Ryan Reynolds unleashed his inner Deadpool on him over a little ahem fat-shaming incident involving Blake Lively. Let’s dive into this kettle of steaming gossip soup, shall we?
The Lawsuit That Broke the Internet (Well, Almost)
So, Justin Baldoni—yes, the guy who makes you cry in every feel-good movie ever—filed a lawsuit against The New York Times where he claimed he was “aggressively berated” by Ryan Reynolds. Imagine getting schooled by the king of sarcastic one-liners in front of Hollywood’s glitterati. Ouch.
Here’s the alleged crime: Justin asked a trainer how much Blake Lively weighed before she filmed a stunt for It Ends With Us. Enter Ryan, wielding the metaphorical frying pan of justice. According to Justin, Ryan confronted him with enough intensity to make even a Marvel supervillain rethink their choices.
What the Lawsuit Says
Justin’s filing reads like a dramatic diary entry:
– He claims Ryan accused him of fat-shaming Blake.
– Ryan’s reaction was so fierce, Justin felt compelled to throw out apologies like they were free samples at Costco.
– To keep things chill, Justin allegedly bent over backward to appease Blake and Ryan, like a guy trying to win back his girlfriend after accidentally deleting The Bachelor finale from the DVR.
But wait, there’s more! Justin says this all went down in front of a gaggle of A-listers just casually hanging out in a penthouse. Sounds a little too much like the plot of a Ryan Murphy series, doesn’t it?
Ryan’s Camp Fires Back
Cue the TMZ receipts. An insider—probably someone who’s seen Ryan Reynolds in sweatpants—spilled that the confrontation wasn’t quite as dramatic as Justin’s lawsuit suggests.
– Yes, Ryan was mad. Who wouldn’t be if someone body-shamed their spouse? But “angry and stern” doesn’t exactly scream WWE smackdown.
– The insider called Ryan’s reaction “impassioned,” which is basically the Hollywood equivalent of “I care a lot, but I didn’t throw furniture.”
– Oh, and about that penthouse full of celebrities? Total fiction, according to the source. The showdown happened at Blake and Ryan’s house, not some star-studded revolving door. Apparently, no one was sipping martinis while gawking at the drama.
The Verdict
So, what do we have here? A he-said, he-said situation where Ryan Reynolds played the protective husband, and Justin Baldoni maybe overplayed his victim card.
The real moral of the story? Don’t mess with Blake Lively unless you’re ready to get verbally power-washed by Ryan Reynolds. Also, Hollywood lawsuits are starting to sound more like high school cafeteria fights, and we are 100% here for it.
Pass the popcorn, because this tea is piping hot.
