Justin Baldoni Gets Emotional in New Interview Promo Amid Blake Lively Drama
Justin Baldoni
It’s Been An ‘Intense Year’ …
Wipes Tears In Upcoming Podcast
Published
Justin Baldoni is breaking his silence amid his ugly legal battle with Blake Lively, saying in a teary-eyed promo clip for a soon-to-be-aired interview he’s had an “intense year.”
Baldoni sat down with Samir Mourani — host of the “Gent’s Talk” podcast — for an emotional face-to-face, recorded a month prior to Lively’s first court filing accusing the “It Ends With Us” actor-director of sexual harassment and publicly smearing her name. As you know, Lively starred with Baldoni in the film.

In the short interview clip with quick jump cuts, Baldoni tells Mourani, “I had an intense year” and “This morning I sent a text message … I had anxiety.”
Mourani asks why and Baldoni replies, “I haven’t talked about this yet,” while appearing to wipe away tears.
The screen then goes dark before showing the interview’s air date: February 10.

As we’ve reported … Baldoni and Lively have been duking it out in court since the fallout from their “It Ends With Us” movie shoot.
In December 2024, Lively filed a civil rights complaint followed by a lawsuit against Baldoni for his alleged sexual harassment and smear campaign against her.
Baldoni then filed his own lawsuits — including against the New York Times for allegedly colluding with Lively and defaming him in an article. He also sued Blake and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, accusing them of launching their own smear campaign against him.
It all adds up to one big legal mess. Stay tuned. This drama ain’t done yet.

R. Kelly Sued
You Still Owe Us Million$!!!
Published
R. Kelly is being hounded for millions of dollars by six victims who claim he isn’t paying out an expensive judgment against him.
According to a new lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, six alleged victims say they scored a $10.3 million judgment against Kelly in 2023 … problem is, they claim he’s only paid them a fraction.
Lizette Martinez, Lisa Van Allen, Kelly Rogers, Faith Rogers, Roderick Gartrell and Gem Pratts claim they’ve received less than $500,000 … and they say Kelly is still on the hook for more than $9.9 million.
As you know, Kelly’s victims came forward in the Lifetime docuseries, “Surviving R. Kelly” … and they’re going after the disgraced singer and his former record label, Universal Music, for the money after claiming he shut down a screening of the doc in 2018.
TMZ broke the story … the judgment was leveled against Kelly in August 2023, but he pushed back and claimed he didn’t even know about the case and shouldn’t be held accountable.
Kelly is currently serving a 30-year prison sentence and, frankly, there’s always been questions if the victims here would ever see a dime. They say they’ve gotten some money, but it isn’t all of what they say they’re entitled to.
R. Kelly’s current lawyer, Jennifer Bonjean, tells TMZ … the default judgment was entered against Kelly before she joined his legal team, and his appeal is pending.
