A new case of harassment in Hollywood. According to information from the New York Times, taken up in France by several media including the Parisian website, actress Blake Lively filed a complaint this Friday against Justin Baldoni. The star revealed in particular in the series “Gossip Girl” criticizes the actor and director for “disturbing behaviors“and a”sexual harassment“. The facts allegedly occurred during the filming of the film “Nevermore”, released in theaters last August.
According to the New York Times, Blake Lively also accuses the one who plays her companion in this feature film of having developed “a multi-level plan” to tarnish her reputation after she denounced his actions.
The 37-year-old actress evokes “kisses imposed” by the actor but also discussions about their private life during which Justin Baldoni allegedly admitted to having had relations with partners without their consent.
Blake Lively calls into question the behavior of one of the film's producers. She accuses Jamey Heath of having looked at her when she was changing in the dressing room or of having shared with her images of his partner completely naked.
The actor's lawyer denied these accusations and considered them “scandalous“. “They are intentionally salacious with the aim of causing public harm and rehashing a narrative in the media“, he adds.
As the Parisien website recalls, a tension between the two actors had been spotted by observers and the public. During the promotion of the film, Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni never appeared together.
