Swift is wrongly involved in legal dispute
In the sensational dispute between the actors Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, Taylor Swift’s name now appears. The singer doesn’t like that at all.
US superstar Taylor Swift defends himself against a summons as part of the legal dispute between the actors Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. The background is, according to the British BBC, that she is said to have pushed Baldoni (41) to accept script changes from her friend Lively (37) when shooting “only once”. According to US media reports, the 35-year-old singer was first mentioned in January in connection with the case in text messages of the two actors.
To this end, Swift’s Management of the German Press Agency announced: “Taylor Swift was never on the set of this film, she was not involved in any occupation or creative decisions. The summons are therefore an “attempt to arouse public interest and create clickbait instead of concentrating on the facts of the case,” said the spokeswoman. It initially remained unclear whether and in what frame Swift could testify.
LIVELY (“Gossip Girl”) had shown her co-star Baldoni in December because of sexual harassment when filming the film “only once” and accused him and producer Jamey Heath in a lawsuit to destroy her reputation. Baldoni (“Jane the Virgin”), who also directed the film, reacted with a lawsuit against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds (48).
