00:00:00.000 So my suggestion for Blake Lively now is to hire Justin Baldoni's crisis team,
00:00:05.420 because according to her, they're really, really good.
00:00:13.400 Hi and welcome to Flossom Talk. I'm Kjersti Flohr, journalist, Hollywood truth teller,
00:00:17.900 and your voice of reason in a town built on the illusion. Okay, as you can see,
00:00:23.320 I'm in a different studio today, and that is because I am back in LA. I arrived really late
00:00:29.760 last night, so I'm really tired and extremely jet-lagged, but I will try my best to get through
00:00:35.700 this episode without making too many mistakes. Anyways, since I left Spain, Blake Lively was
00:00:41.920 out and about in New York City showing off her extremely expensive outfit. Apparently,
00:00:48.280 the earrings are worth over $39,000. Talk about being relatable. It's so interesting how she
00:00:56.100 hired a new publicist and then she keeps doing the same mistakes. And while Blake Lively is out in
00:01:02.520 her vintage Chanel dress, her company is quietly shutting down. And it's not so quiet anymore by
00:01:10.540 the way because every outlet is reporting on this. Betty Buzz and Betty Booze is shutting down. And
00:01:17.900 in the meantime, Justin Baldoni cuts all ties with LA, selling his home and leaving all the bad
00:01:24.920 memories behind. Let's get into it. It's so funny now, by the way, that Blake Lively has hired new
00:01:31.880 PR and things are not changing. If you look at any comment section on any article that's published
00:01:38.800 about her, either it's an Instagram post or an article online, 99% of the comments are negative.
00:01:47.680 Remember how she hired an expert to convince the judge that she needed, I think it was about 14
00:01:53.620 million dollars to build back her reputation and the way that they were going to do that
00:02:00.200 was to expose the same people who saw all the negative commentary and comments about Blake
00:02:06.320 Lively to expose those same people to positive comments and content about Blake Lively. So far
00:02:14.220 it's not working and now when you look at some of the comment sections you can see that here and
00:02:20.320 there there's a positive comment saying Blake Lively is beautiful or some hearts or some flames
00:02:25.960 and then that comment get quickly buried in a lot of negative follow-ups. So my suggestion for Blake
00:02:33.400 Lively now is to hire Justin Baldoni's crisis team because according to her they're really really
00:02:39.820 good. So tip of the day to Blake and Ryan, hire Melissa Nathan. Anyways as I said every outlet
00:02:46.100 picked up that Blake is quietly shutting down her business. TMC reported on it first that Betty 0.98
00:02:53.700 Buzz and Betty Boos is shutting down. They said that Blake launched her non-alcoholic drink Betty
00:03:00.520 Buzz in 2021 and she expanded into alcohol drinks with Betty Boos in 2023 despite admitting she
00:03:10.120 doesn't enjoy drinking alcohol and I think that was her first big mistake with this brand like
00:03:16.880 how are you going to sell people something that you don't even enjoy yourself and especially
00:03:22.560 something like alcohol which is known to not be so good for your health. I'm sure Ryan had already
00:03:30.100 his big master plan vision for this brand so that he could sell it the way he sold aviation gin and
00:03:37.460 make a ton of money from it but yeah that's not gonna happen now we don't test on animals we test
00:03:43.920 on men drink up i don't know how good it is and it's funny i saw this in the comment the other
00:03:55.140 day and i think it's really spot on how blake lively has ruined it for other celebrities other
00:04:00.220 big names who are launching their own products or their own brands like very recently jennifer
00:04:06.200 Lawrence, I spoke about her new hair care line here on my channel as well, and all the backlash
00:04:12.040 she has received. And I wonder if she would have received the same amount of backlash if it wasn't
00:04:18.640 for Blake Lively's hair care line that she so famously brought to the ground herself. And the 0.98
00:04:24.780 article in TMZ confirmed that according to trademark records reviewed by TMZ, Blake's company
00:04:31.800 has filed several trademark applications since its launch. Betty Bus and Betty Bus trademarks
00:04:38.580 are still active, but multiple others related to the company have been abandoned. And it says here
00:04:45.300 that the abandoned trademark application include marks for beer-based products, non-alcoholic
00:04:51.020 carbonated beverages, and other products. So yeah, it looks like she even had bigger plans
00:04:56.800 for this brand. They also confirm here that Betty Buzz hasn't posted on Instagram since April 5th
00:05:03.700 while Betty Boos hasn't posted since September 28th despite being very active for years. So remember
00:05:10.740 how Blake accused Justin Baldoni and his mare campaign for ruining this brand and when I was
00:05:16.780 just doing a little research this morning I found this article and this is from June 29th of 2023
00:05:23.660 so keep in mind this is one year prior to the premiere of It Ends With Us
00:05:31.460 when Blake Lively said that the smear campaign was in full gear
00:05:35.840 and this is an article from page 6 in June 2023
00:05:39.300 non-drinker Blake Lively accused of cash grab as she launches alcohol brands
00:05:45.160 and they said she puts the boo in booze
00:05:50.080 Blake Lively is being slammed by critics for launching an alcohol brand,
00:05:53.900 despite admitting not being a drinker herself.
00:05:57.020 Drinking isn't my thing, but for F's sake, flavor is.
00:06:01.560 Lively wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, so this was in 2023, remember?
00:06:06.140 Along with the photo where she is seen serving cans of her sparkling cocktail brand, Betty Boos. 0.86
00:06:12.780 Homemade recipes, real fruit, real ingredients, quality booze, no crap.
00:06:17.780 also a real time saver which is why i really did it so she was really doing this to help people
00:06:23.660 save time just keep that in mind and they also mentioned that she named this alcohol brand after
00:06:30.580 her three-year-old daughter betty if she was three years old back then and it says here critics were 0.64
00:06:35.220 left scratching their heads over the gossip girl alums choice to launch an alcoholic beverage line 0.53
00:06:40.060 after openly admitting that she doesn't that she doesn't drink alcohol and then they printed a few
00:06:45.820 of these comments and one of them the last one here was interesting it says first JLo and now
00:06:51.940 Blake Lively ridiculous all these celebs who doesn't even drink selling alcohol just to make
00:06:57.200 a buck yeah I can't remember that JLo actually also had an alcohol brand I wonder what happened
00:07:01.720 to that by the way but anyways people weren't having this back in 2023 either and of course 0.61
00:07:08.180 this is one of the things that she would have to answer for in court if her lawsuit would ever have
00:07:13.000 reach that point and she would also probably have to defend her marketing choices for this brand
00:07:17.840 especially in the light of how she accused Justin Baldoni of S age and the way she's posing with
00:07:23.880 this guy remember this ad where she was posing with this guy and he was not wearing a shirt and
00:07:30.360 it was all supposed to be so sexy anyways as I said a lot of outlets picked up this story Daily
00:07:37.000 Mail, of course, did a big splash on it saying Blake Lively hit with another massive setback
00:07:43.900 as her booze line is shutting down following legal war with Justin Baldoni.
00:07:48.120 And while she is quietly shutting down her brands, Blake Lively is quietly making it
00:07:55.480 back to the New York party scene.
00:07:58.440 It says here on page six that Blake Lively is back on the party scene in sparkling vintage
00:08:04.000 Chanel and $39,000 earrings. It's interesting how she's back on the party scene. I don't think she
00:08:11.340 was ever on the party scene by the way. Interesting choice of words here but she is back calling the 1.00
00:08:17.820 paparazzi every time she goes out again. I think that's what they meant to say here because I've
00:08:23.120 never seen anyone smile bigger ear to ear than Blake Lively when she waved at these paparazzis.
00:08:30.920 She obviously called them herself.
00:08:32.980 Why on earth would they be outside of this store just hanging out in case there would
00:08:38.080 be a celebrity showing up? 0.99
00:08:39.620 And I have to admit there was one more celebrity at this event, which was Michelle Williams.
00:08:44.860 But apart from that, it was just a regular store event at designer Brent Neal, who makes
00:08:53.340 really expensive jewelry.
00:08:54.920 So I don't know what the rest of her outfit costs, but it is a vintage Chanel dress.
00:08:59.760 so I'm guessing a lot and of course that adds up with all the accessories she's wearing
00:09:04.840 and those earrings that are valued here according to page six at $38,850. So this is exactly the
00:09:15.180 same thing as I mentioned before that she's been up to since she settled her lawsuit just showing
00:09:20.420 up at tiny events in New York City wearing some expensive stuff. I mean how is she going to win 1.00
00:09:25.940 back the public by doing that. She's not invited to any big events, not any Hollywood events. And
00:09:32.600 now we're in the middle of the party season because it's award season and so many things
00:09:38.540 are happening. So most celebrities can pick and choose from so many events and so many red carpets
00:09:44.300 if they want to. And of course, Blake Lively is obviously not invited to any of that. And they
00:09:49.800 also point out here that Ryan Reynolds did not show up. She was there with friends. She does
00:09:55.500 have some friends left, like regular people friends, but not any celebrity friends, as you
00:10:01.720 know. I wonder if she tried to take a photo with Michelle Williams at this event so she could post
00:10:06.700 it on social media to pretend that she still has celebrity friends. But anyways, interesting that
00:10:11.860 her new publicist Kelly Bush Novak is doing the exact same thing as Leslie Sloan did. So she didn't 1.00
00:10:18.960 really hire a new publicist to make any changes. She just fired Leslie Sloan because then she could 1.00
00:10:24.720 have another person to blame as well for her bad PR. I remember how Blake Lively hired Sigrid
00:10:30.580 McCowley who used to work for victims of Epstein to make her look like a better victim and she
00:10:36.900 stood in front of the courthouse in New York telling everyone how we could all expect to see
00:10:42.720 a lot more charity work from Blake Lively in the near future. So where is that? I wonder if no
00:10:49.440 charity organization actually want to have their name associated with someone like Blake because
00:10:55.060 I think that she would jump on any opportunity like that now. I have to read a little bit from
00:11:00.120 this article in Daily Mail by the way because I think it's so hilarious how they're explaining
00:11:05.460 what she's wearing and how she's acting here. It says that Blake Lively looked as if she had some
00:11:12.260 new pep in her step when she was spotted out in New York City on Tuesday night in a stunning
00:11:17.720 little black dress. Their 39-year-old Gossip Girl star was spotted out in Manhattan's Upper East
00:11:24.120 Side for an event celebrating the launch of jury Brent Neal's new holiday collection.
00:11:29.680 Although Lively was reportedly joined by friends, her husband Ryan Reynolds, 50, didn't appear by
00:11:35.280 her side. The Daily Mail has reached out to Lively's representative for comments, but hasn't yet heard
00:11:41.500 back. What comment were they expecting to get from this, by the way? Hey, can you comment on the fact
00:11:47.020 that Blake Lively was out in a black dress on Tuesday. Anyway, I wonder if Ryan is not celebrating
00:11:52.640 his 50th birthday, by the way. I haven't seen anything about that. Let me know if you've seen
00:11:56.860 anything like that. Then they continue. Lively, who recently revealed her over-the-top beauty
00:12:03.060 regimen, channeled classic glamour in her skimpy black dress, which was decorated with glittering 0.97
00:12:10.680 sequins. The off-the-shoulder mini-dress featured a playful black bow that covered her cleavage for 1.00
00:12:18.380 a touch of modesty. Oh my gosh, I love this. Lively's short skirt showcased her toned legs,
00:12:26.980 which culminated in clé lubitons that strapped around her ankles and featured black-tipped toes. 1.00
00:12:36.720 And they continue. 0.80
00:12:37.480 It ends with a star who is stepping out in the wake of a bruising legal drama
00:12:42.560 with her former co-star and director Justin Baldoni
00:12:45.360 wore her long blonde hair in dramatic waves cascading down her shoulders.
00:12:52.480 And then they say here, 0.98
00:12:53.700 the outing comes after Lively revealed the secrets of her beauty regimen 1.00
00:12:59.180 she uses to look as if she's in the first trimester of life last week.
00:13:04.860 and pointing at this Instagram story that she shared where she was wearing a face mask and 1.00
00:13:10.480 whatever. So this outing comes after she posted this on her Instagram. Like this is how much
00:13:16.720 is happening in Blake Lively's life right now. She was wearing a mask at home and she posted it
00:13:24.000 on Instagram story. And then the next week she shows up in a black mini dress in New York City.
00:13:29.720 Anyways, in the middle of this, I saw this article a few days ago actually that Justin
00:13:33.080 Baldoni is selling his LA home he just sold it for 2.1 million dollar after escaping to Nashville
00:13:40.980 amid Blake Lively drama page six reports and it says here that in 2020 Baldoni told fans via
00:13:48.660 Instagram that he spent three years feng shuing the heck out of the house so after three years
00:13:55.040 we have finally finished our home and he said also that so much love has gone into this house
00:14:00.540 to say that it's been a labor of love is an understatement.
00:14:04.020 I'm going to post some before and after pictures and videos soon
00:14:07.840 as it's hard to believe it is even the same house.
00:14:10.740 There's so much love inside these walls.
00:14:14.240 So it's interesting that he sold something that he put so much love and attention into
00:14:19.880 and I'm sure, I'm 100% sure that he only left this house
00:14:26.560 and he only left LA because of Blake Lively.
00:14:29.540 They also put their estate in Ojai, here in California as well, up for sale.
00:14:34.100 I'm not sure if they sold that, but that happened over a year ago.
00:14:37.280 And him and his family moved to Nashville, Tennessee also last year.
00:14:41.780 And they say here that he relocated for a fresh start.
00:14:45.180 And someone is quoted saying that it's obviously been an incredible difficult time for the whole family,
00:14:50.600 but Nashville has given them a fresh start.
00:14:53.660 And it says here that the source added that Justin and Emily are incredibly resilient and grounded.
00:14:59.220 Right now, they're focused really on family and moving forward,
00:15:02.860 the insider shared at the time.
00:15:05.240 Yeah, good for him leaving LA and all the toxic people here.
00:15:09.640 I can't even imagine the disappointment he must have felt going through all of this.
00:15:15.780 I felt too how incredibly fake and toxic this place is.
00:15:21.120 Because most people here only think about themselves. 1.00
00:15:23.960 It's all about saving their own ass. 0.99
00:15:25.920 It's all about their own careers. 0.99
00:15:27.520 It's all about knowing the right people and how you can use those people to get where you want to be.
00:15:33.140 It's such a harsh place, so I'm glad for him that he took his family to Nashville.
00:15:38.920 And as you might remember, this was like the lowest of the low, I think, from Blake Lively's attorneys.
00:15:44.780 When they filed Justin Baldoni's entire deposition, by mistake,
00:15:50.600 they also, by mistake, outed his home address to his new place in Nashville.
00:15:57.340 Who does that?
00:15:58.840 Isn't that just evil?
00:16:00.320 Can you imagine if his lawyers would have done the same to Blake and Ryan
00:16:04.700 out of their home addresses?
00:16:07.120 Yeah, the cruelness of these lawyers.
00:16:09.780 I don't understand how they sleep at night.
00:16:12.340 Anyway, that's it for me today, you guys.
00:16:14.300 I hope you enjoyed this episode.
00:16:16.300 Oscar, I just wanted to say hi, right?
00:16:19.080 He's jet lag too.
00:16:20.180 It was such a long flight, but he's such a good boy on the plane.
00:16:24.260 He's just laying there being quiet the whole time.
