Blake Lively Says She and Others Have Received ‘Sexist and Threatening’ Messages Over Justin Baldoni Suit

variety.com:

Gene Maddaus Senior Media Writer Blake Lively‘s attorneys are looking to keep a lid on the release of sensitive personal and financial information in the course of litigation against Justin Baldoni, citing violent and sexist threats she and her supporters have received.

Noting that the case involves several “high-profile individuals,” Lively wants a court order to assure that certain information will remain confidential, and will not be posted to social media sites like Snapchat, TikTok and YouTube.

Such information would include compensation information, profitability reports, ownership of companies, creative ideas, film scripts, photos, videos, and health records.

In a letter to the court on Thursday night, Lively’s lawyers stated that such an order is needed because she and others involved in the case have already been subject to “violent, profane, sexist, and threatening communications.” Lively’s lawyers wrote that one witness who supports her got a message threatening to sexually assault and kill their family after their texts were included in Baldoni’s amended lawsuit.
