00:00:00.000 So Taylor Swift has invited Blake Lively to her wedding.
00:00:08.300 Hi and welcome to Flossom Talk. I'm Sersti Floor, journalist, Hollywood truth teller,
00:00:12.820 and your voice of reason in a town built on delusion. Okay, so Taylor Swift has invited
00:00:19.440 Blake Lively to her wedding. I am still so in shock. After reading this article in the Daily
00:00:25.960 email. I had to jump on here, even though it's Saturday and I was not supposed to do anything
00:00:30.580 today. But I had to report on this because I am just like in shock. So they're saying here that
00:00:36.980 Taylor Swift's bombshell reconciliation phone call with Blake Lively. Insiders reveal every detail
00:00:43.700 of wedding invites. Olive Branch. Literally no one saw coming. And the actress has a dress picked
00:00:51.860 out. I have to say something. If I had to put money on something, either choose if Blake Lively would
00:00:58.560 get invited to Taylor Swift's wedding, or if she would show up at the Met Gala the day she settled 0.85
00:01:05.360 the lawsuit, I would probably have bet more money on her getting an invite to Taylor Swift. And here
00:01:11.980 we go. So this story has a bunch of different insiders giving this information. As we've learned
00:01:17.040 throughout Blake Lively's lawsuit a lot of different insiders usually means one but they
00:01:22.620 just want to protect themselves so no one can find out who they are and I can assure you this
00:01:29.140 is coming from Blake Lively's camp because as you know she's trying to get her reputation back
00:01:34.620 and she's getting help from allegedly getting help from Anna Wintour at Vogue so why would Taylor
00:01:41.840 swift give her an olive branch right now maybe because she just settled the lawsuit or maybe as
00:01:49.160 some people have speculated online they have been friends this entire time but my big question is
00:01:56.480 why would you want to have such a controversial figure at your wedding and i'm sure ryan reynolds
00:02:01.900 is going to show up as well and we know travis kelsey is not a big fan of ryan he unfollowed
00:02:08.420 him very publicly on Instagram last year so that would be really really awkward. So this article
00:02:15.980 is obviously mentioning the fallout they had very publicly and especially that one text message that
00:02:21.780 Taylor sent to Blake saying hey it's all about you now you're not a good friend anymore and that is
00:02:28.140 the last communication between the two of them that we actually saw and they're saying here that
00:02:32.440 Taylor was not happy obviously about being dragged into the lawsuit but was more receptive to speaking
00:02:38.340 to Blake as the suit came to a close, an insider told the Daily Mail. Blake was ready to resume
00:02:45.080 their friendship because it really was what caused its demise. Of course she was ready to resume
00:02:50.620 their friendship. She's not the one who broke up this friendship. I'm assuming that was Taylor
00:02:55.840 after she got blackmailed by her friend who told her if she doesn't support her publicly she will
00:03:01.640 release all their text messages. Maybe that's what she kept pushing for here as well but if you don't
00:03:07.200 invite me and ryan to your wedding i will release those text messages you know the ones i'm talking
00:03:12.660 about taylor maybe the ones that you sent me about your ex-boyfriends who knows that would
00:03:17.520 be right up lake lily's alley since their friendship fractured both parties are said
00:03:22.300 to have made an effort to revive their once rock solid relationship with our insider revealing the
00:03:27.880 former pals have spoken on the phone adding everyone around taylor is aware that blake
00:03:33.080 could attend. She may not but that won't be because she isn't welcome. Another source here says Blake
00:03:40.520 is on the cusp of getting a second chance and they have had some loose conversations to test the
00:03:46.340 waters to get the trust back. Blake is slowly getting back into the fold now that Taylor is
00:03:52.160 having a change of heart. And here they have a third source that claims that Lively does not
00:03:57.800 want to be seen as not going to the wedding because her image is very important to her. 1.00
00:04:02.600 The Gossip Girl actress has notably struggled to maintain her squeaky clean reputation through 1.00
00:04:09.120 the lengthy Baldoni showdown. Her squeaky clean reputation. Okay, where did that come from? She 1.00
00:04:15.980 never had a squeaky clean reputation. I don't believe this source at all if it's not the same
00:04:21.440 one. This is a bit confusing to me at this point. Anyways, the source also added here that Blake
00:04:26.240 and Taylor never stopped being friends.
00:04:29.360 I've seen so many people talk about this online,
00:04:32.340 saying, hey, they're still friends.
00:04:34.180 This is just for PR purposes
00:04:36.160 that they are not showing up together in public.
00:04:39.900 And I remember someone DMing me saying
00:04:41.840 that her friend's daughter was friends
00:04:43.680 with one of Blake Lively's daughters.
00:04:46.100 And they said that they went over to Taylor's house
00:04:48.900 to have play dates during this mess.
00:04:52.380 So that makes sense when you read this,
00:04:54.860 that they were friends all along and I wonder how this is going to backfire on Taylor and she knows
00:05:01.160 there's going to be so much attention so many headlines stealing headlines from herself about
00:05:07.800 Blake Lively attending her wedding and then they're saying that many people thought that Swift
00:05:12.780 was distancing herself from Lively to protect her reputation but the personal messages proved
00:05:19.180 that Swift confronted the mom of four about the rift.
00:05:23.300 Unsealed text messages released from the court records in January
00:05:26.780 confirmed that the pair openly discussed the negative shift in their relationship,
00:05:31.680 which was brought on by Lively's SH lawsuit against Baldoni
00:05:36.080 and the defamation countersuit he filed against her.
00:05:39.300 This is where I'm so confused, because if they were friends all along,
00:05:43.740 that sworn statement that Brian Friedman wrote to the judge saying,
00:05:49.180 I have talked to someone very close to Taylor Swift who turned out to be her dad and he told me
00:05:56.140 about these blackmailing incidents where one of Blake's attorneys had called one of Taylor's
00:06:01.520 attorneys and said she better, you know, support her in public or she's going to release all these
00:06:07.500 text messages. So how could you ever forgive something like that? That is a big question
00:06:11.340 mark for me. I don't know. What do you guys think? And they also say here, despite the drama,
00:06:15.120 Lively has likely landed herself at spots at Swift's upcoming wedding, which is rumored to
00:06:20.380 be taking place at New York City's 20,000-seat Madison Square Garden Arena on July 3rd. I think
00:06:27.540 we know at this point that that was a decoy. They're not getting married in Madison Square
00:06:31.460 Garden. That was just for people to speculate and to confuse the press. So I don't believe that
00:06:37.320 they're getting married on July 3rd at all, actually. I think they're probably going to get
00:06:41.220 married before that. And this weekend, there were rumors and reports that there were a lot of people
00:06:46.640 present at her house out on Long Island. So I'm guessing she's going to fool everyone and get
00:06:52.420 married way before. And then there is apparently some kind of event going on in Madison Square
00:06:59.040 Garden where she's celebrating something. But of course, she's not going to do an optional since
00:07:03.060 Madison Square Garden makes no sense. So the Daily Mail also says that they previously reported
00:07:08.680 that the couple will also say I do at a private, more intimate ceremony with close family and
00:07:14.020 friends. Guests are expected to include Swift's bestie singer Selena Gomez and stylist Ashley
00:07:20.420 Avignon. Remember her? Ashley was the one who actually got in touch with Blake Lively because
00:07:28.520 she also knew Stephanie Jones. So she was the one who arranged for that phone to change hands.
00:07:36.240 And we all know what happened to the text messages in that phone.
00:07:39.540 They ended up in the New York Times.
00:07:41.500 And if it wasn't for that, there probably wouldn't be a lawsuit. 0.75
00:07:44.720 So maybe at least Blake Lively has one friend at this wedding if she decides to show up.
00:07:50.100 Also, it says here that Patrick Mahomes and his wife, Brittany, are also expected to attend.
00:07:57.240 But there are a bunch of people who are not attending.
00:07:59.400 And one of them is Kaylee Teller.
00:08:01.100 I spoke about that the other day.
00:08:02.980 She's Miles Teller's wife.
00:08:04.880 And apparently she had a fallout with Taylor during this legal mess.
00:08:10.420 And according to some sources again, she had said that Blake Lively was very protective of Taylor
00:08:16.860 and she didn't want any other girls to be accepted in that group.
00:08:21.340 Apparently now she is not invited either and neither is Miles Taylor.
00:08:26.840 And the same insider claimed Lively had allegedly become envious of Kylie
00:08:31.480 and felt threatened by Kylie and Taylor's closeness
00:08:35.080 and tried to tear their friendship apart to be Taylor's number one.
00:08:39.620 And according to Rob Shooter,
00:08:41.200 friends and family of Taylor has already been arriving at the Rhode Island,
00:08:46.020 Rhode Island, not Long Island, sorry about that,
00:08:48.420 while security around Taylor's property and surrounding areas
00:08:51.780 has noticeably increased.
00:08:55.800 Everything points to a private ceremony
00:08:57.860 followed by a much bigger celebration later, says an insider.
00:09:01.000 that's been the plan from day one and it says here that sources say swift was determined to
00:09:07.300 keep her vows personal despite the enormous attention surrounding the couple it's interesting
00:09:12.660 how everyone is speculating in this even cnn is speculating so they talk to this wedding planner
00:09:20.400 out on rhode island uh it's called the ocean house and apparently there is another wedding going on
00:09:26.960 there this weekend because now people are like oh there's so many guests at her house maybe they're
00:09:31.800 getting married this weekend and they got in touch with Elizabeth Hall who is a 15-year wedding
00:09:38.320 planner veteran and she says that Taylor Swift is not getting married on the at the Ocean House
00:09:44.580 this weekend we do have a wonderful couple getting married there and they're very excited but it's
00:09:50.060 not Taylor and Travis wedding and they keep reporting her saying you don't need to worry
00:09:54.260 about TMZ and the rest ruining the couple's weekend though. The bride and groom-to-be are
00:10:00.380 safely insulated from the gossip while en route to their welcome party this evening. And she says,
00:10:06.760 honestly, they don't even have this on their radar. Her team has had also prepared additional
00:10:12.740 security for the hotel due to the intense local atmosphere. It's so funny how CNN is speculating
00:10:19.640 and reporting on this, saying that we are reporting on all these rumors that are still
00:10:24.760 rumors so that TMZ can't report on these rumors. Like you're just doing the exact same thing as
00:10:30.340 you're accusing TMZ of doing. Anyways, TMZ reported this a couple of days ago, saying that
00:10:35.500 several months ago there were reports the celebration would go down at Ocean House Resort
00:10:40.800 in Rhode Island. Our sources say the couple locked in a date June 13, not coincidentally
00:10:47.900 Taylor's favorite numerals. We've done some digging, says TMZ, and found out a big old
00:10:54.020 firework show was planned as part of the reception. But in mid-May, the fireworks company handling the
00:11:00.880 show got word that the event was canceled and had been moved to New York. As for why, we told the
00:11:08.280 couple bailed after word got out about the venue. And here they say, now here's the most intriguing
00:11:16.140 parts typically when the wedding is separate from the reception the wedding takes place first if
00:11:20.980 taylor and travis had planned to celebrate on june 13 was there already a wedding ceremony in place
00:11:27.380 and if so have they already tied the knots yeah there's a lot going on here and we don't know
00:11:33.680 anything obviously i don't know who these people are who tips off the press all the time i'm sure
00:11:38.700 they're coming from taylor's camp so that they can confuse people because she wants as much
00:11:44.700 attention around this as possible and as long as people keep guessing about where this wedding is
00:11:50.480 going to be she gets more attention she gets more press and i guess that's what she wants
00:11:56.240 and also of course blake lively's team leslie sloan keeps calling the press about these stories
00:12:02.260 i'm 100 sure that this comes from blake's team that taylor called her and invited her basically
00:12:09.740 to her wedding as you know there are a lot of people that might and might not show up at this
00:12:15.020 wedding that have either fall out with with taylor or used to date her one of them being harry styles
00:12:21.460 apparently zoe kravitz who's now i think she's engaged to harry styles now they've been going
00:12:26.880 out for a while and she is friends with taylor but it's going to be a little awkward for taylor
00:12:33.220 to have Harry Styles at her wedding, so it says here that he might actually be on tour at the
00:12:40.000 time of this wedding, so he maybe can't make it, so maybe Zoe will go by herself, and it says here
00:12:46.580 another one's close friend of Swift, Carly Kloss, is not invited either, the reason being that she
00:12:53.100 married Joshua Kushner, and Scooter Brown was a guest at her wedding. I mean, does anyone go
00:13:00.320 through boyfriends and friends more faster than taylor swift i don't know i feel like she has
00:13:06.520 such a long list of people she doesn't speak to anymore and people she had fallouts with
00:13:11.220 i don't think that is a very good sign but anyways that's it for me today you guys i just wanted to
00:13:16.440 jump here on here and talk about it what do you guys think do you think blake is going to show up
00:13:22.560 is she going to show up with ryan as well or are they going to go out of the country and pretend
00:13:29.020 they couldn't make it. I think this is a part of Blake Lively rebuilding her reputation image again
00:13:37.520 pretending like nothing happened and who knows maybe Anna Wintour was the go-between here
00:13:44.020 telling Taylor hey reach out to Blake she's such a wonderful lovely girl and you had such a great
00:13:50.900 friendship so why don't you just invite her to your wedding. Oscar also wanted to send love to
00:13:56.060 everyone we are going through a heat wave here in spain so it's a little hot so i gave him a
00:14:00.920 little haircut yesterday it doesn't actually show that much anyways he wanted to say if you haven't
