And now they want to sanction Jamie Heath because he hasn't showed them the entire video of his
00:00:14.980
Hi and welcome to Flossal Talk. I'm Hashti Floor, journalist, Hollywood truth teller,
00:00:19.940
and your voice of reason in a town built on delusion. Happy Halloween everyone.
00:00:25.580
Oscar is so terrified of this mask. He is in hiding right now. Poor little boy.
00:00:31.140
I feel like that's so appropriate today for what I'm going to talk about.
00:00:35.020
Pigs, basically, which is what I think Blake Lively's lawyers are at this point.
00:00:40.540
Their filing today is so shocking, you guys. You won't believe that they just did.
00:00:45.540
It's all about that birthing scene. Remember that one?
00:00:48.640
And now they want to sanction Jamie Heath because he hasn't showed them the entire video of his wife
00:00:57.000
giving birth to their child. It's so beyond any logic, as it usually is with Blake's filings.
00:01:03.900
I also found this behind the scenes video showing how Blake was engaging with Jamie Heath
00:01:09.340
and his wife on the set with It Ends With Us. And we'll get into what that actually means.
00:01:14.740
And the judge did a final ruling on Blake Lively's case and also the New York Times case.
00:01:21.820
This is interesting. Anyways, we also have to talk a little bit about Prince Andrew being stripped
00:01:27.920
of the royal title and how Prince Harry now is worried that he's going to be next.
00:01:33.360
Okay, so I think this is about the seventh or eighth time that Blake actually files for sanctions.
00:01:37.740
She wants to punish the Wayfair parties. And this time is Jamie Heath.
00:01:42.840
The reason for that is that birthing scene. Remember that? There's been a lot of talk about that.
00:01:48.920
I think this is like her strongest evidence now of what she has left of her S.H. claims.
00:01:56.300
So she is claiming, she was claiming in her original lawsuit that she was shown a video by Jamie Heath
00:02:04.680
that she felt was corn. She said she wasn't warned. And he showed this video of a woman
00:02:10.700
laying there with no clothing on. And she was shocked. And she just walked away from it.
00:02:16.560
Basically, that's very different from the story that Jamie Heath told. The stories that was in their
00:02:22.520
filings where he explained that it was during lunch. And that Baldoni suggested to Jamie that he should
00:02:29.320
show Blake Lively a video of his wife giving birth as inspiration for the scene they were shooting
00:02:37.200
of Blake giving birth. So this was for creative inspiration. He showed her a clip and Blake asked
00:02:46.900
him, is your wife okay with this? And he said, yes. And then Blake had said that I'll just finish
00:02:51.860
my learns first. And then they ended up not showing more of that video. But according to Blake,
00:02:56.820
that really traumatized her. And this now seems to be the major evidence that she has in this case.
00:03:03.640
So what they're saying in this filing is that Jamie Heath gave them a video, but only three minute and
00:03:09.840
20 seconds, only three minute and 29 seconds. They want the entire video because they're saying that
00:03:17.280
Blake can't recall what part of the video that he actually showed her that was so disturbing to her.
00:03:24.460
And the video that they have at this point doesn't show what she can remember that he showed her.
00:03:30.420
They're also saying here that because they asked for this and Jamie didn't respond or he didn't give
00:03:37.380
it to them, the judge should allow them to sanction Jamie Heath to punish him for that. And they're also
00:03:44.820
saying because of this, he should not be able to explain in court any context of the situation of when
00:03:53.080
he showed that video to Blake. It is so insane. So first of all, this video, as you know, is a birthing
00:04:01.620
scene of a woman giving birth to a child. There's nothing about a pregnant woman giving birth that says
00:04:09.940
corn to me. Also, you have to keep in mind, Blake really needs some headlines right now. And I feel like
00:04:17.380
the only reason for them to file this is because Blake wants some headlines now connecting Baldoni,
00:04:25.200
Heath and corn together. So all the people who only read headlines, which is a lot of people,
00:04:31.000
will start connecting those things again and saying like, yeah, they were all pigs on set. And of course,
00:04:37.120
we're not going to read until later in any story that it was actually a birthing video. Anyways,
00:04:41.800
this whole filing, there's so many blanks here, which also I think is a bit suspicious. Like why are
00:04:46.380
they, what are they hiding here? I don't know, they're trying to protect someone or they just want us
00:04:51.300
to believe that it's so sensitive, everything in this filing, that we will start believing that it's
00:04:57.080
something major that they're hiding here. And the thing is, whatever angle Blake was shown, it doesn't say
00:05:02.420
anything different than a woman giving birth. But my major problem here is how they're now dragging
00:05:09.760
Jamie Heath's wife and child into this. I can imagine that Jamie Heath's wife was saying to
00:05:16.720
Jamie, you know, it's okay that you show it to Blake for inspiration. But right now she's like,
00:05:22.440
do I want the whole public to see this video? Do I really need that? Do I want it to be shown in
00:05:28.260
front of a jury? My, you know, thing when I was giving birth, I feel that's a very personal thing.
00:05:34.680
And maybe I don't want to share it with the world. So Jamie, please don't share more of that video.
00:05:38.960
So that's my guess of what has happened here, that she's like, I don't want to be part of this
00:05:43.760
lawsuit, of course. And I said, so I think apart from the PR value of this, I think the only reason
00:05:49.140
Blake is doing is, is to punish Jamie and to punish his wife and to humiliate them. I mean, to me,
00:05:58.360
thinking about if this is shown to a jury that they will actually see this full footage, all they will
00:06:03.820
see is a woman giving birth. But I think also the reason why Jamie didn't want to give this entire
00:06:10.320
video to her is because he knows Blake Lively is the queen of cherry picking. And she will probably
00:06:18.040
find one little angle of one second that looks a little inappropriate. And she will pick that and
00:06:23.600
say, this is what they showed me. And then she'll show that to the jury and say, look at this.
00:06:28.180
Wouldn't you be shocked if someone showed you this in a workplace? And of course,
00:06:31.760
now when they're saying to the judge, we shouldn't allow Jamie to explain the context or anything that
00:06:36.460
happened here, it would only be from our perspective, that just adds an extra layer to
00:06:42.340
this that makes it even more repulsive. I find it interesting how Blake has been so vocal about
00:06:48.060
supporting other women. And then that she does something like this to another woman, because the
00:06:53.020
person here who's getting punished is Jamie Heath's wife. She's the one who has to give up her privacy
00:06:59.740
here. I can't envision any scenario where the judge would actually allow them to do this.
00:07:05.280
So to me, this whole thing just seems like such a PR stunt. Again, that's what they do these days,
00:07:11.640
because they have nothing left. So they're just clinging now to the media to pick up some headlines
00:07:17.840
and write about these things to smear to continue the smear campaign against Justin Baldoni, Jamie
00:07:24.260
Heath, Steve Sarowicz, and the rest of the Wayfair party in the public eye. And here is another little
00:07:30.740
shocker that I just found out. Thank you, Matteo, for sending me this clip. This is from behind the
00:07:36.420
scenes of It Ends With Us. And guess who Blake is hanging out with? But before we get into that,
00:07:42.660
I wanted to thank the two sponsors of this video, Quinn's and Jones Road Beauty. You know, when you find
00:07:47.960
something that looks designer, and then you look at the price tag like this, and you're like,
00:07:52.260
wow, that's quite reasonable, actually. That's the magic of Quinn's. I just got these super cool
00:07:58.720
sunglasses that fit my face so perfectly, and they were only $50. I also got this silk blouse that feels
00:08:05.640
like it's from some luxury brands. It's soft and flowy, and I love this color for fall. Their whole
00:08:12.280
thing is premium quality with no crazy markup. You can get real quality silk, leather, cashmere for
00:08:21.860
way less. My next purchase is definitely gonna be this cashmere sweater for $50. Honestly, when you
00:08:29.320
start buying things at Quinn's, you want to renew your entire wardrobe. And also, they have amazing
00:08:34.880
jewelry. I got this necklace from their beauty and wellness products, home decor, kitchen, loads of
00:08:41.920
gifts ideas, and really great prices on furniture too. Find your fall staples at Quinn's. Go to

00:09:06.180
Jones Road Beauty for sponsoring this video. After I saw that Bobby Brown was involved in this, I love that
00:09:12.580
brand. I was super curious to find out more about Jones Road Beauty. And now I'm totally into this
00:09:18.480
miracle balm. You just get your finger in there. I use it on my lips and then I put a little bit on my
00:09:24.680
cheekbones here. And you get that beautiful natural glow that I really like. This color is Dusty Rose, but
00:09:31.240
they have a lot of different colors. What I really like about it is that it's not heavy and cakey that I find a lot of
00:09:36.800
beauty products to be. It just makes you look refreshed that you had a good night's sleep or you
00:09:41.740
just went for a walk in the sun. It's perfect for those days when you don't want a full face of makeup
00:09:46.600
and you just want to add a little bit of freshness. And if you're one of those people who like an
00:09:52.240
effortlessly fresh look, you're gonna love this. All you have to do is go to
00:09:56.940

00:10:05.380
That's code FLOR, my last name, at jonesroadbeauty.com. Okay, so let's get back to the madness.
00:10:11.700
So in this video, a behind-the-scene video of It Ends With Us, you can clearly see Blake Lively,
00:10:19.240
her sister Robin, Justin Baldoni, Jamie Heath, and what I would assume very strongly is his wife.
00:10:30.960
So the five of them are on the stoop talking together and you can see that Blake is interacting
00:10:38.200
with Jamie Heath's wife. They seem to have a very friendly tone. In the meantime, Justin is just
00:10:45.280
letting Blake run the show by letting her stand up on that stoop taller than everyone else.
00:10:50.700
So he just sits down and let her have the stage. This is, I think, what we've seen throughout every
00:10:56.720
behind-the-scenes video from the shoot of It Ends With Us. But what I found interesting here is that
00:11:02.940
if Blake was so in shock from watching that video of Jamie Heath's wife, when she really knew the wife,
00:11:11.360
that just adds another layer of why I don't think that it's even remotely possible that she could
00:11:19.240
have thought that that video was corn. She also probably knows that this woman has given birth to
00:11:26.040
four children just like her and she chooses to go after her like this to have her most intimate and
00:11:36.640
private moments be available for the entire world so she can try and convince people that she felt
00:11:45.720
uncomfortable. Another thing when you watch that video is how many people are on that set. So many
00:11:53.100
people must have known what was going on there. Why haven't more people come out and talked about this
00:12:01.620
if it was such a horrific set. In this behind-the-scenes video, you can see everyone's laughing.
00:12:07.580
It seems like everyone's getting along. I don't know if this behind-the-scenes video is from before
00:12:13.460
or after the birthing scene, but I just find it very, very interesting that Blake knew Jamie Heath's wife
00:12:22.740
to this extent, as we see in this video. And she's still claiming that Jamie Heath's wife giving birth
00:12:29.120
birth to their child was so offensive to her. She put so much emphasis on this birthing scene
00:12:35.960
in her legal complaint as well. I don't know if you remember, but that doctor that played the
00:12:41.540
gynecologist in the scene, she claimed that he was a friend of Baldoni that he just called in
00:12:49.780
so he could have a good look between her legs when she was laying there with no clothing on.
00:12:55.500
Well, he came out publicly, as you remember, to page six, and he talked about how he don't remember
00:13:02.340
anything the way Blake remembered. And he also said that he's a professional actor and he was hired
00:13:07.880
because he was living in New York. He also knows Baldoni. But the reason why he was hired was because he
00:13:14.140
was a trained actor. In April, he said to page six that I'm not going to speculate as to Miss Lively's
00:13:21.760
motivations for mentioning me in the complaint. Needless to say, my experience working with her
00:13:27.600
is very different than the one she described in her lawsuit. Indeed, I was surprised to read her
00:13:34.660
description of the scene. And here is how she described it. Miss Lively felt that the selection
00:13:40.340
of Mr. Baldoni's friend for the intimate role in which the actor's face and hands were in close
00:13:45.560
proximity of her nearly blah blah blah down there for a birth scene was invasive and humiliating.
00:13:53.040
And then he explains what she was actually wearing in that scene. Her costume included a full hospital
00:13:58.640
gown, black shorts, and torso covering prosthetic to make her appear pregnant, in addition to whatever
00:14:07.000
personal garment she chose. I mean, you can try to stretch this as far as possible, but there's no way
00:14:14.660
a jury or any sane person is going to look at this and say, yes, this was clearly inappropriate and this
00:14:21.580
was clearly S-age. Also, when you look at the behind-the-scenes footage, there is no way that Blake Lively
00:14:29.360
would not share her opinion about something if she feels uncomfortable. Does she seem like a woman
00:14:35.820
who wouldn't say, hey, this is uncomfortable for me, I need to wear more clothing, can you close that
00:14:41.500
door? Do you think she would just sit there and be a victim and like, oh my god, I feel so abused,
00:14:46.300
I'm not going to say anything because, you know, I don't have any power here. Like, seriously.
00:14:51.920
Anyways, the judge ruled again today, you guys. I'm trying to wrap my head around all these
00:14:57.420
ridiculous rulings. I think it's just so much waste of time, that's my opinion, but I'm not a lawyer.
00:15:02.700
And, you know, if things were a little more efficient, then the lawyers would make so much
00:15:06.740
money. So, yeah. Anyways, so the judge ruled today, he gave a final judgment on Blake Lively's case.
00:15:14.700
If you don't remember, New York Times asked the judge to give a final judgment on their case,
00:15:21.180
which was dismissed at the same time as the Blake Lively case. As you know, Justin sued both New York
00:15:27.660
Times for defamation and Blake Lively for defamation. And both of them were dismissed at the same time
00:15:33.780
by the judge back in, I think it was in May or June. And now New York Times has shown that they're
00:15:38.780
desperate to get like a final stamp on this to say that case is over. Because as you know, New York
00:15:45.660
Times filed another lawsuit against Baldoni asking for legal fees to get covered. And I'm sure they want
00:15:52.940
to use this ruling in that to convince the judge that, you know, hey, this case was dismissed. So
00:15:59.780
here you go. We want to have our legal fees covered. The problem with giving a final judgment was that
00:16:06.600
Blake Lively's case is not really decided on yet because she filed, as you know, for legal fees to
00:16:13.440
be covered. And that's not been decided upon yet. So today the judge told New York Times that you're not
00:16:20.540
out yet because we have to rule on Blake Lively's motions for legal fees first. So you're still like
00:16:28.140
in limbo in this case, which means that New York Times lawyers need to keep updated on what's happening
00:16:33.920
here as well. Not that they're any part of it per se, but they're not completely out yet. And now the
00:16:41.440
New York Times must be quite annoyed with Blake for filing to get legal fees covered because that keeps
00:16:47.440
them still in this case. The problem for Baldoni with this is that as long as the judge has not said that
00:16:55.480
there is a final ruling here, this is final, he cannot appeal. And this process here can take a long time.
00:17:03.600
It could take like three to five months before the judge actually makes a decision on Blake Lively's legal fees.
00:17:10.060
That would be even after this thing has gone to trial. So everything is just being postponed all the
00:17:18.120
time. So now Baldoni's team can't really do anything. And as you remember, which shocks a lot of people,
00:17:24.140
I think, is when his case was dismissed, Brian Friedman came out and said, we will fight this. But then they
00:17:30.600
decided not to actually file an amended complaint. One of the reasons for them not to do that would might be
00:17:37.960
that they were afraid to get even more sanctions from Blake Lively's team. I don't know. I think
00:17:43.480
it's a little bit of a mystery still because the judge did give them an option to amend some of their
00:17:48.260
claims in their lawsuit. They dismissed, they didn't dismiss the entire thing. They just, they left a few
00:17:54.720
things open to amend, but they decided not to do anything about it. And everyone was like, why aren't
00:18:00.140
they amending the complaint? I'm sure there's a master plan there. We don't know about it yet, but I'm very
00:18:06.740
curious to find out. So the judge now ruled that New York Times cannot get a separate judgment on
00:18:13.660
this. They're still a part of the whole mess, basically. Anyways, crazy legal stuff. I also
00:18:20.500
wanted to talk about this story, which I find quite interesting. The Ankler, which is a newsletter,
00:18:25.340
posted this on their Instagram story today, and they're pointing out the decline of female directors
00:18:31.520
in the industry. They're showing here that it's the lowest in a decade of female directors directing
00:18:40.240
big movies in Hollywood. And I think when you look at what Blake Lively is doing right now, I think he's
00:18:46.640
going to terrify people to work with women. I'm not saying that this case specifically has influenced
00:18:54.520
that. But it's funny how the Ankler is showing some examples of big Hollywood stars who's never
00:19:01.940
worked with a female director. One of them being Ryan Reynolds. He's never worked with a female
00:19:09.100
director. Isn't that quite interesting how he's supporting women, supporting his wife, and then he
00:19:16.300
has never worked with a female director. While Baldoni, on the other hand, and the hand and the
00:19:21.880
Wayfair parties, hired a bunch of female directors. The latest one, Scarlett Johansson. And as you know,
00:19:29.060
Claire Ayoub, who I spoke about here on my channel, is another one. There's plenty of them. This is one
00:19:34.760
of their focuses with the production company. Yeah, so who knows how much damage this case will actually
00:19:40.180
cause other female directors, actors, producers. Women coming after Blake Lively. Big story yesterday,
00:19:48.300
Prince Andrew is stripped from his royal title after his disgraceful behavior over decades.
00:19:55.860
So you have to remember that Prince Andrew's lifestyle has been subsidized by taxpayers' money.
00:20:02.720
And he's been living in the royal lodge with 30 rooms, acres of lands, and private squadron of
00:20:09.060
deer strolling the property. And now due to, amongst other things, the Jeffrey Epstein connection,
00:20:14.780
he now has to live in a more modest accommodation on the Sandringham Estates,
00:20:21.360
privately founded by King Charles. I don't think the punishment is really harsh here,
00:20:26.200
but this could also open up to maybe criminal charges. Who knows? And from now on, he's no longer
00:20:32.240
Prince Andrew. He's now Andrew Mountbatten, Windsor. Apparently, Prince Harry didn't know about this,
00:20:40.580
and now he's panicking that he might be next. As you know, there's a very public feud there between
00:20:46.140
Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, and the royal family. According to sources here from
00:20:51.960
Rubshutter, they're saying that Prince Harry's stomach dropped. He thought titles were untouchable.
00:20:59.400
Now he's not so sure. For months, Harry has publicly downplayed the importance of royal styling,
00:21:05.520
but watching one erased in real time shook him. Behind closed doors, insiders say Meghan is
00:21:12.120
equally rattled, worrying that Prince-Princess branding tied to their children and their
00:21:18.880
Hollywood deals could evaporate. And here, a top Los Angeles strategist is quoted saying that
00:21:25.920
a title isn't sentimental, it's leverage in every negotiation. And a royal expert here is saying
00:21:33.060
that once a palace is willing to demote blood princes, everyone should be nervous. Yes,
00:21:39.660
so let's see how this ends for Prince Harry. Anyways, that's it from you guys. I hope you enjoyed
00:21:44.800
this episode. And again, happy Halloween to everyone. I hope you're having fun today. If you're going trick
