00:00:45.200 The reason why she piled on Blake's hate towards Justin was just because she cares.

00:00:54.080 Hi and welcome to Flossom Talk. I'm Jashti Flohr, journalist, Hollywood truth teller,

00:00:58.260 and your voice of reason in a town built on delusion.

00:01:03.060 Okay, so the New York Times did a list over the worst casting of movies.

00:01:10.400 And guess who's number one on the list?

00:01:12.960 Blake Lively.

00:01:15.080 Interesting.

00:01:16.260 Also, fans are calling out Taylor Swift for her relentless scheming and plotting.

00:01:21.780 The Daily Mail is bringing the tea.

00:01:23.440 And let's look at this old Ryan Reynolds movie where he plays a perv

00:01:28.060 that gets turned on by minors and let's talk about Nice Pool the character that Ryan created

00:01:34.660 to bully Justin Baldoni and how Disney is off the hook for now but could definitely be dragged back

00:01:42.740 into this. Also everyone is talking about Timothee Chalamet and his tone-deaf comments about ballet

00:01:49.760 and about the Oprah as a dying art form while he is out there promoting a movie about ping pong.

00:01:56.260 This whole thing is so blown out of proportions right now.

00:02:00.020 It could almost look like a smear campaign.

00:02:03.160 Let's look into that.

00:02:04.560 Also, there is a new filing.

00:02:06.300 It's not that interesting.

00:02:07.440 I'm not going to spend too much time on explaining what it is.

00:02:10.420 But it's basically the Wayfair party is asking for a little more time to prepare for trial.

00:02:15.580 While Blake Lively's party, don't think they need that.

00:02:18.580 Anyways, there's another article I want to mention here first,

00:02:21.820 which is from She Knows magazine.

00:02:24.520 This is so funny to me.

00:02:25.840 So they did a story on Blake and Ryan kissing at the soccer match.

00:02:30.660 And they're claiming here that this is proof that their marriage is still going strong.

00:02:36.420 So it says Blake and Ryan's super rare outing shows where their marriage stands today.

00:02:42.300 Once upon a time, Reynolds and Lively were everywhere, beloved from head to toe.

00:02:47.240 However, amid their controversies in recent years, they've been keeping it extra low-key.

00:02:52.920 and this low-key new vibe had people wondering if divorce was on the horizon.

00:02:58.620 But these new photos show what's really going on with the pair.

00:03:03.400 Obviously, the person who wrote this article has never heard about PR before.

00:03:08.660 In photos obtained by Page Six, we see the couple passionately kissing

00:03:13.000 while watching the Football Association Challenge Cup match between Wrexham and Chelsea.

00:03:18.420 Before the major kiss moment, they were still packing on the PDA while Lively hugging him from behind throughout and Reynolds caressing her.

00:03:28.260 And then she ends it with, so that effectively ended those divorce rumors amid Lively's ongoing legal battle with former it ends with a star Justin Baldoni, which Reynolds was also dragged into for allegedly verbally abusing Baldoni.

00:03:43.780 So, yeah, that's the end of it.

00:03:45.540 Their marriage is going strong, according to this article, because they've kissed in public.

00:03:52.080 I mean, how many times have we seen similar things?

00:03:55.420 I think the latest couple who did something similar was Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.

00:04:00.300 Everyone was like, oh, look, they're out, they're holding hands and everything's fine.

00:04:04.140 And then the next day it's like we're getting a divorce.

00:04:06.500 It's called crisis PR and I don't think their marriage is going strong by any means.

00:04:14.020 But anyways, let's talk about this funny story that the New York Times did today or yesterday about the 14 worst movie castings.

00:04:23.460 They did a list of everyone that they thought were wrong for the different roles in movies.

00:04:28.620 And number one on the list is Blake Lively for The Town.

00:04:32.880 I think she played in like two movies that were decent and one of them was The Town and the other one was Savages. 0.94

00:04:38.300 and here they're saying that she was completely wrong for this part

00:04:42.520 as a bank robber all over the place X.

00:04:45.900 Blake Lively is doing a lot as a local druggie

00:04:48.660 in Ben Affleck's spare crime drama The Town.

00:04:52.040 Unfortunately, it's never the same thing twice.

00:04:55.700 Her Boston accent appears and disappears.

00:04:59.180 She's stiff as a bored one minute, clingy the next 0.99

00:05:02.740 and that's just one scene.

00:05:05.980 That's all they have to say about that.

00:05:07.820 It's funny how this is actually from the New York Times, who, as you know, wrote that his hit piece on Justin Baldoni on behalf of Blake Lively.

00:05:17.240 Anyway, so not everyone at New York Times is a big fan of Blake.

00:05:20.660 Let's put it that way.

00:05:21.640 Also, I just wanted to quickly mention this filing that was I think it was yesterday.

00:05:26.360 It showed up in the court docket.

00:05:28.940 It's a new filing where their lawyers are basically asking the judge to push back some upcoming deadlines before the trial.

00:05:37.700 Both sides agree to a small delay, about a week,

00:05:41.080 but Wayfair parties now want something a bit different.

00:05:44.680 They're asking the judge to wait until he rules on the big motions in the case first.

00:05:49.380 As you know, Justin Baldoni and the Wayfair parties have filed motions

00:05:54.100 against Blake Lively's lawsuit saying,

00:05:56.920 hey, judge, look at all this evidence here.

00:05:59.280 You need to toss out a lot of her claims. 0.64

00:06:01.720 I think she has about 13 claims.

00:06:04.000 And of course, if he throws out 10 of those claims,

00:06:06.700 and it's only three left, it does affect the way that they prepare for trial.

00:06:11.960 So the Wayfair parties want to push for these pre-trial filings,

00:06:18.780 which is basically what they're going to use in court against Blake

00:06:23.720 so that the judge knows what evidence and exhibits they're going to bring into the trial.

00:06:29.060 And they want to wait.

00:06:30.380 I mean, that makes so much sense to me that they want to wait to see what claims are actually left.

00:06:35.180 So they're going to have to do all this extra work in case the judge tosses out a lot from Blake Lively's lawsuit.

00:06:42.380 But of course, Blake Lively's lawyers don't want this because they just want to punish the wayfair parties as much as possible.

00:06:50.440 So we'll see what the judge says about this.

00:06:52.920 And we still don't know when he's planning to rule on all these motions from Justin Baldoni's team.

00:06:59.340 It could happen tomorrow. It could happen in a week, two weeks, a month's time.

00:07:03.380 We don't know that yet.

00:07:05.180 So we'll see if he's going to rule on this before he actually rules on that.

00:07:09.520 But I guess this is just like lawyers arguing and it doesn't really affect anything except that, of course, that they have to do a lot of extra work.

00:07:17.660 No matter what, it's going to be really interesting to see what survives from Blake Lively's claims.

00:07:22.780 Is he going to toss out most of her SH claims or is he going to toss out most of her retaliation claims?

00:07:30.360 Yeah, we'll just have to wait and see.

00:07:31.720 Anyways, let's talk about Timothee Chalamet that everyone else is talking about right now.

00:07:37.300 But before we get into that, I wanted to thank the sponsor of this video, Raycon.

00:07:42.620 With spring on its way, I've been trying to spend even more time outside.

00:07:46.040 Every morning when I walk Oscar, I'm using my Raycon Essential Open Air Buds.

00:07:51.200 Whether I listen to the news or if I'm on a phone call or listen to a podcast to do research for my episode that day,

00:07:58.920 I couldn't do it without these amazing earbuds.

00:08:02.420 What I really like about them, it's the open design.

00:08:05.560 I have very small ear flips,

00:08:07.600 so it's been really hard for me to find earbuds that actually sits perfectly in my ear.

00:08:13.220 I'm not a runner myself, but I can imagine.

00:08:16.180 These are a must if you are.

00:08:19.520 The reason for that is because you are not shutting out the world while you're wearing them.

00:08:24.560 You can actually hear if something is going on around you.

00:08:27.760 regular earbuds block out everything but these are just sitting outside the air canal you can hear if

00:08:34.980 there's a car coming so it just feels a lot safer and the fact that they're super comfortable as

00:08:40.760 well so you even forget that you're wearing them and the audio is still crisp and clean they're

00:08:47.080 also super light and they have this flexible hook that makes them sit on your ear perfectly and the

00:08:53.480 battery is great as well. It has over eight hours play time and up to 36 hours with the charging

00:08:58.820 case. I charge these only once a week. Raycon's essential open earbuds are perfect for refreshing

00:09:05.340 your routine this spring. Just click on the link in my description or go to buyraycon.com

00:09:22.120 to timothy chalamet if you missed this i will share this little clip with you from his conversation

00:09:29.220 with matthew mcconaughey they were sitting in front of a live audience interviewing each other

00:09:34.140 having conversations about movies it's it's obviously a part of timothy chalamet's oscar

00:09:39.400 campaign he's been extremely aggressive in his campaigning to win an oscar this year for marty

00:09:45.940 supreme anyways this is what he said to matthew admire people and i've done it myself to go on

00:09:50.440 of talk show go hey we got to keep movie theaters alive you know we got to keep this genre alive

00:09:54.300 and I don't want to be working in ballet or opera or you know things where it's like hey keep this

00:09:59.600 thing alive even though it's like no one cares about this anymore all respect to the ballet and

00:10:03.940 opera people out there I just lost 14 cents in viewership okay so he was basically dissing

00:10:10.300 opera and ballet what's really interesting about that is that he comes from a family of ballet

00:10:17.540 dancers and as many people pointed out he is out there promoting a movie about ping pong while

00:10:25.380 trashing ballet and opera so many people piled onto this calling him out for being so tone deaf

00:10:34.680 and for trashing an art form just because he is not a part of that art form he's trashing another

00:10:40.460 art form some people are laughing about it some opera houses or directors have invited him to the

00:10:48.680 opera or to the ballet to tell him you need to be educated a little bit more talk shows have

00:10:55.060 trashed him his instagram is just full of comments they're saying like this is oprah and ballet being

00:11:04.620 struggling arts meanwhile makes a movie about ping pong another one says hope hope timmy loses

00:11:10.840 the oscar to michael b jordan button and then 53 248 people like that and another one says

00:11:20.700 another one who thinks fame and art are the same thing so now there's a lot of push for michael b

00:11:28.620 Jordan to win the Oscar and not Timothee Chalamet. Michael B. Jordan won the actor award the SAG-AFTRA

00:11:36.640 actor award and then Timothee Chalamet won the Critics Choice Award and the BAFTA award for

00:11:42.800 best actor went to Robert Aramayo. So it's really hard to predict this year who the Oscar will go

00:11:48.620 to for male actor. I think Timothee Chalamet should win the award for campaigning most aggressively

00:11:56.580 but this whole thing to me looks a little bit like one of these Oscar smear campaigns and we've seen

00:12:02.940 them before it happened to Carla Sofia Gascon a few years ago she was in the running for best 0.97

00:12:10.260 actress for the movie Emilia Perez and then someone digged up some old tweets and her Oscar

00:12:16.260 chances just died instantly she didn't show up at award shows they didn't want her there the cast

00:12:24.060 didn't talk about her they didn't thank her and she was basically the main character of this movie

00:12:29.820 and there was so much rave about this movie beforehand but because of those hostile tweets

00:12:35.540 she had no chance she actually reached out to timothy with this instagram post i kind of find

00:12:43.660 this whole thing a little amusing because i mean he didn't say anything seriously to hurt someone 0.68

00:12:49.420 The only person he hurt here was himself because it makes him look stupid, but he didn't hurt anyone on purpose. 0.52

00:12:57.080 It wasn't a mean thing to do. 1.00

00:12:58.940 It was just very ignorant. 0.52

00:13:01.500 So Carla posted this photo of it looks like she's talking to Timothy on the phone and he's saying, 0.91

00:13:10.120 Hola Carla, do you think they're going to make me pass the red carpet at the Oscars?

00:13:16.160 And Carla says, are you a trans woman?

00:13:18.220 then don't worry about it tim she's still bitter obviously and she's blaming it on being a trans 0.98

00:13:25.500 woman which i think had nothing to do which i don't think had anything to do with the reaction 0.77

00:13:30.020 around those tweets that she was a trans but she's using that now she still wants to be a victim 1.00

00:13:34.460 and she adds besides i love ballet slippers and i've seen the phantom of the oprah 10 times not

00:13:39.840 sure if that counts for anything best of luck with the awards she says well thankfully for timothy

00:13:46.140 Chalamet, the Oscar Academy had to vote before this interview was actually published. So they

00:13:53.980 were unaware of these tone deaf comments. But on top of that, it doesn't really help him that he's

00:13:59.360 dating a Kardashian if he wants to be taken seriously. Unfortunately, a lot of people look

00:14:05.160 at it like that and say, hey, you're dating one of them. That means you're one of them and we don't

00:14:09.840 respect you. She's a reality star. She'll do anything for fame. And it seems like Timothee

00:14:15.160 Chalamet's ego has gotten a little too big for him. One thing is to be confident which I think

00:14:21.160 is attractive in a person but when you show ignorance that just makes you arrogant and that

00:14:28.260 is not a good thing and people don't like arrogant people especially the academy don't like it if

00:14:34.700 you're too full of yourself and I definitely think that is going to hurt his chances this Sunday of

00:14:40.760 winning that award. I remember the first time I met Timothy at a party. It was like a pre-Golden

00:14:47.340 Globes party and he was there with a friend of mine because he used to date his daughter. And

00:14:54.400 he introduced me and he said, hey, this is Timmy. He's going to be huge. He's going to star in this

00:14:59.600 movie called Call Me By Your Name and remember his face. He's going to be famous, blah, blah,

00:15:04.860 blah. And I remember speaking to him for like two minutes and he was just this young boy,

00:15:09.560 very humbled and very like big eyes of being at this party. It's so funny to think about that now

00:15:16.940 and look at who he has become and see how fame can change you. I hope that Timothee Chalamet

00:15:23.120 will be a little humbled by this experience. I've never interviewed him myself, but I've seen

00:15:28.520 interviews with him and he's not very cooperative. Let's put it that way. I remember Magnus interviewed

00:15:34.340 him and he said, oh my God, it was horrible. He was just sitting there being so pretentious

00:15:38.980 and he wasn't willing to share anything

00:15:41.440 and the interview was just dead boring.

00:15:43.980 And anyways, I don't know.

00:15:45.620 I'm sure he's a nice guy deep down inside.

00:15:48.060 He just needs to find that humbleness again

00:15:50.400 because there's always someone else in line to take his spot.

00:15:53.940 Also, there's been controversies around the director of Marty Supreme,

00:15:57.900 Josh Safdie, who used a 17-year-old girl in his movie Good Time.

00:16:03.880 And that girl, I don't think she was even an actress. 0.99

00:16:06.120 and there were claims about a toxic work environment there

00:16:09.540 and that ended up with a professional split between him and his brother

00:16:13.000 who he directed the movie with.

00:16:14.880 So anyways, talking about smear campaigns,

00:16:17.320 I feel that there might be some people pushing for this movie to fail.

00:16:22.220 I watched it myself and I was like, okay, it's entertaining.

00:16:25.980 He's really good in it.

00:16:27.020 But it didn't give me like, oh, wow, this is an Oscar movie for sure.

00:16:31.400 Definitely not.

00:16:32.440 But anyways, good luck to Timothy on Sunday at the Oscars.

00:16:35.700 Okay, so first of all, thank you, Lainey, for sending me this clip from Ryan Reynolds' movie

00:16:40.720 from 2005. It's called Waiting. And when you look at this now, I mean, things were different back

00:16:49.140 then, but they weren't that different. And the lines that Ryan are saying in this movie are just

00:16:56.240 like outrageous. How's my favorite minor doing today? Hungover. I'm only a minor for another

00:17:01.780 week i turn 18 on wednesday well then i guess i better hurry up i am indeed a pervert yeah he's 0.67

00:17:06.600 just saying hi emily how's my favorite minor of this week and she's saying i'm only a minor for 0.90

00:17:14.300 another week and then he says i better hurry up them i am a pervert yeah that's pretty disgusting

00:17:20.660 yeah i just think about how blake lively complained about justin baldoni directing 0.90

00:17:26.200 two minors in it ends with us making love while she's been doing it so many times on gossip girl 0.58

00:17:34.040 obviously she was playing a 16 year old there and the fact that the actors at it ends with us

00:17:40.140 especially i think isabella ferrer was like 25 26 when they did that shoot so it's like come on

00:17:46.140 and her husband did this in another movie or he said that in another movie yeah anyways ryan knows

00:17:53.040 how to be beaten by his own words,

00:17:55.060 to put it the way Taylor Swift said

00:17:56.860 in the text messages I spoke about yesterday.

00:17:59.460 So here is another example of what he'd said

00:18:02.580 and how he contradicts his action.

00:18:05.040 Thank you, Sasha, for sending me this article.

00:18:07.440 This is from 2021,

00:18:08.600 and he's talking about his marketing company, Maximum Effort.

00:18:12.500 And Ryan says,

00:18:13.520 you want to be able to do something

00:18:14.880 where everyone feels like you're being provocative,

00:18:17.760 but nobody feels vilified, attacked, or nullified.

00:18:21.640 It always comes back to that same edict.

00:18:25.220 Let's bring people together.

00:18:28.200 Let's filter everything we do through a prism of joy,

00:18:31.580 as opposed to cynicism or division.

00:18:35.080 I mean, division is very viral, but it's not our bag, and it's boring.

00:18:40.140 Really?

00:18:40.980 Just think about what he did with Justin Baldoni in Deadpool,

00:18:45.460 mocking him in a Disney movie, and that is not cynicism to him.

00:18:50.940 also remember that commercial he did with astronomer where this woman who was caught

00:18:57.920 on the kiss cam at the Coldplay concert where she was called out by the world for doing that

00:19:04.600 because she turned out she was married and her boss was married whatever a long story I'm sure

00:19:09.220 you remember that and then Ryan Reynolds did an ad to mock it which she was so hurt by she said in

00:19:17.600 an interview afterwards that she was especially hurt by Gwyneth Paltrow doing that ad so for Ryan

00:19:23.160 to say that we like to be provocative but nobody feels vilified attacked or nullified no anyways

00:19:28.840 talking about Deadpool a nice pull there is a scene that was actually deleted that I hadn't seen

00:19:34.060 before I'd be fighting alongside them but my calling is to one day host a podcast that monetizes

00:19:39.100 the women's movement hey cowboy I mean come on guys that's not even subtle yeah Ryan is saying

00:19:47.400 I've been fighting alongside you, but my calling is to one day start a podcast that monetizes the

00:19:52.660 women's movements. That was removed from the movie. I wonder if Disney put their foot down 1.00

00:19:57.940 and said, you know, enough is enough. Stop mocking Justin Baldoni in this movie. This movie should be

00:20:03.380 about Deadpool and not just bullying another man you don't like. Anyways, I'm so upset that we

00:20:09.460 didn't get to see all the notes surrounding the Deadpool movie because last year Justin Baldoni

00:20:16.200 filed a subpoena against Disney and said that we want to have access to all the communications

00:20:21.520 surrounding this movie and the nice poor character and Disney fought that subpoena and by the time

00:20:27.440 the judge responded to that he had already dismissed the lawsuit against Ryan and then he

00:20:32.560 said okay this doesn't matter anymore so that was kind of dropped by default but when Justin

00:20:38.180 Baldoni is filing his appeal they're definitely going to bring Disney back into this because this

00:20:44.840 is a big part of his lawsuit against Ryan that he bullied him throughout this movie. As you might

00:20:51.120 remember, Brian Friedman, Justin Baldoni's attorney, came out last year and talked about this

00:20:56.420 and said, you know, how could Ryan Reynolds mock Justin Baldoni in the Deadpool movie while he's

00:21:02.660 supposed to be traumatized of what happened to his wife? That's not the way a normal person react.

00:21:08.420 You want to protect your wife. You're not just mocking and making fun of the situation. So Ryan

00:21:14.340 reacted to this saying that claimed that Baldoni's thin-skinned outrage over a movie character

00:21:20.620 that satirically woke nice pool does not even pretend to be tied to any actual legal claims.

00:21:27.500 Instead, it falls into the general allegation of hurt feelings, which in reality is nothing more

00:21:34.840 than a desperate effort to advance the same curated bully image that Baldoni created and

00:21:41.400 disseminated in the retaliation campaign they launched against Miss Lively in August of 2024.

00:21:47.420 So if you react to being bullied in a movie that's released worldwide, you are just like

00:21:54.940 thin-skinned according to Ryan Reynolds. Yeah, that whole thing was so outrageous. I remember

00:22:00.200 when we first talked about it, I was like, really? Is he really that petty that he would

00:22:06.080 mock someone spent time creating a character just to be mean to another person but obviously that's

00:22:13.700 what he did he never denied it and then it says here that being ryan admitted that the nice book

00:22:18.540 character in deadpool was based on justin he not only dragged hugh jackman into the forefront and

00:22:23.900 the directors and producers of the film but also disney the insider continued so yes if they win

00:22:30.540 the appeal on this lawsuit we are definitely going to see more from Hugh Jackman as well

00:22:37.360 and the conversations that Ryan Reynolds had with Hugh Jackman and the conversations he had with

00:22:43.380 Disney and Disney is not going to be happy about that. So as you know Taylor Swift has also been

00:22:49.620 dragged into this by Blake Lively and she's not happy about it and the fact that we've seen these

00:22:56.020 text messages now that puts Taylor in a bad light. That makes people dig up some of her old stuff as 1.00

00:23:01.880 well and some of her old actions. And Daily Mail just did this story saying Taylor Swift's sleuths

00:23:07.720 exposed her relentless scheming and plotting. Fans revolt as Singer and Travis Kelsey desperately

00:23:15.700 try to contain the fallout. And it says here that a recent poll conducted by YouGov showed that

00:23:22.460 Swift's popularity has decreased over the past year.

00:23:26.160 In 2024, her approval rating was 54%, but it has dropped to 46.7%.

00:23:34.520 So it dropped almost 9%.

00:23:38.860 It says the turning point for many people was in 2021,

00:23:41.640 when she had the feud with Olivia Rodrigo over songwriting credits

00:23:46.740 and the failure to speak out in 2024,

00:23:49.760 when her ex-boyfriend, Joe Alwyn, was trolled following the release of her album,

00:23:55.140 The Tortured Poet's Department.

00:23:57.240 And she dropped two special editions of The Tortured Poet

00:24:02.620 the same day Billie Eilish released her album, Hit Me Hard and Soft, in May of 2024.

00:24:10.380 Some took it as a calculated move to retain her place at the top of the charts. 0.99

00:24:16.540 And it says here, there was a similar story across the pond,

00:24:19.320 the following month when charlie xcx looked set to claim a uk number one for her seminal album

00:24:26.040 brats but when swift announced the release of six deluxe reissues of tortures departments

00:24:33.300 available only in the uk charlie xcx was forced to accept the number two spots now fans are convinced

00:24:42.420 that Taylor is coming for Bad Bunny.

00:24:45.460 It says here that she dropped that music video, 0.90

00:24:48.800 Apple Light, on Apple Music and Spotify on February 6th

00:24:54.100 and then on YouTube on February 8th,

00:24:57.040 the same day Bad Bunny performed at the Super Bowl.

00:25:00.320 Some people, it says here,

00:25:01.840 claim that she had abundance of dates to release it

00:25:04.800 instead having shot the video in London back in November.

00:25:08.760 So why did she wait for that exact date

00:25:10.820 when he was performing at the Super Bowl.

00:25:13.320 I don't know.

00:25:14.060 I think that's a little far-fetched, but anyways.

00:25:16.100 And then they have a sourcer saying,

00:25:17.780 the truth is, Taylor is competitive

00:25:19.640 and knows that chart battles are great for the industry

00:25:22.940 because it keeps fans engaged,

00:25:25.880 an insider told the Daily Mail.

00:25:27.900 It isn't hostile at all,

00:25:29.600 but may seem that way to people

00:25:31.280 who weren't around in the 1990s

00:25:33.460 when it was even more competitive

00:25:35.220 and people actually had to sell the records.

00:25:38.000 So it is competitive,

00:25:39.460 but far from hostile she loves bad bunny well if all of this is true she is actually working

00:25:45.240 really hard to take the spotlight away from others which i think is kind of hostile the

00:25:50.260 insider also added here that competition with others should see be seen as taylor's way of

00:25:56.660 showing that she respects them she wouldn't bother if she didn't think they were doing something

00:26:02.100 substantial they added okay so she's not gonna come after you if she doesn't care about you so 1.00

00:26:10.320 that just means she cares about you someone should tell justin baloney that that the reason why she

00:26:15.220 piled on blake's hate towards justin was just because she cares they also complaining here

00:26:20.140 that she hasn't refrained from reacting to the use of music from her the the life of a showgirl

00:26:26.700 in several social media posts from the Trump administration,

00:26:30.720 a somewhat odd move for a star who has previously sued

00:26:34.160 over unsanctioned use of her music

00:26:38.080 and once defied her own team 0.99

00:26:40.700 who advised her against getting involved in political matters

00:26:43.540 because she felt compelled to be on the right side of history.

00:26:47.440 And they're mentioning a lawsuit that she was just involved in 0.74

00:26:50.740 when she sued someone for using the trademark SWIFT home.

00:26:55.620 Her management company issued a notice on February 11 claiming the logo design is similar to Swift's trademark cursive signature and that it creates a false association to the singer that could lead customers to believe Swift had endorsed the product.

00:27:12.700 And this company withdrew the application five days later.

00:27:16.380 So no more Swift home for this company.

00:27:18.980 At the end of this article, they do mention the feud, of course, that she has with Blake

00:27:24.120 and the text messages, of course, between her and Blake that has become public.

00:27:28.520 And they're ending it here with a quote about Taylor and Travis and what they're focusing

00:27:32.880 on right now, which is they're trying to stay away from major decisions and aren't looking

00:27:38.840 to address any controversies.

00:27:41.080 The insider added, sure, they are aware of it and its nuance, but the move now is not

00:27:47.080 to add any fuel to the fire yeah i think that's the move from every person who's dragged into any

00:27:54.480 controversy don't add fuel to the fire anyways that's it for me today you guys i really hope
