00:00:00.100 Now, Taylor Swift's team has come out and said that phone call never happened.
00:00:10.500 Hi and welcome to Flossom Talk.
00:00:12.260 I'm Tashty Floor, journalist, Hollywood truth teller, and your voice of reason in a town
00:00:17.000 built on delusion.
00:00:19.280 Okay, so on Saturday, I did an episode talking about how Blake Lively had received a phone
00:00:25.440 call from Taylor Swift where she offered her an olive branch and invited her to her wedding and
00:00:31.760 Blake had allegedly already picked out a dress. Now Taylor Swift's team has come out and said
00:00:38.020 that phone call never happened. So who planted the story in the first place and why was it so
00:00:44.740 important for Taylor to come out and deny this? She didn't deny that she was invited to the wedding
00:00:50.360 by the way. There's so much to look into here. And while Taylor allegedly had all her friends
00:00:55.460 out on Rhode Island this weekend celebrating her big bachelorette party, Blake Liley was caught by
00:01:02.240 a paparazzi by herself with a shopping card with what they're calling her a frumpy outfit. She does 0.99
00:01:10.160 not look like she's preparing to go to a big celebrity wedding. And why was there a paparazzi
00:01:15.920 waiting for her in Poundridge, New York?
00:01:19.360 Who called them to take these unflattering photos of Blake?
00:01:23.540 Let's look into that.
00:01:25.180 Also, big reveal here, Liz Plank. 0.99
00:01:28.360 Remember her?
00:01:29.420 She was the podcast co-host of Justin Baldoni and Jamie Heese
00:01:34.620 until Blake Lively got New York Times to publish the hit piece on them.
00:01:39.520 Then she came out the next day and said,
00:01:41.720 oh, we need to do better and I'm leaving this podcast
00:01:44.880 really throwing him under the bus and now we've learned that she had communications with Blake
00:01:50.100 and Ryan throughout this entire time trashing her friend that she was doing a podcast with. 0.92
00:01:55.420 Now she's in a bathtub on YouTube in her bikini talking about how you can pay money
00:02:02.480 on Patreon to hear her talk trash about Justin Baldoni. He was... 0.95
00:02:08.420 also i have a very important message from the author of the song me too not you that i played
00:02:20.040 here on my channel last week she has recorded a message for everyone so please stay tuned to the
00:02:25.680 end to hear what she has to say okay so let's first look into all this information that's out
00:02:31.500 there regarding Blake Lively being invited to Taylor Swift's wedding. So as I said on Saturday
00:02:38.260 both Daily Mail and the New York Post reported on the news that Blake Lively had received a phone
00:02:44.980 call from Taylor Swift as an olive branch to fix their friendship. So where did this information
00:02:53.800 come from? I can't imagine it coming from anyone else but Blake Lively's team and none of these
00:03:00.680 major outlets would just print something without having some sources that they rely on. So who made
00:03:07.520 this up if it isn't true? Because according to Taylor Swift, it never happened. I find it
00:03:13.820 interesting that it's also so specific that there was a phone call. What I reacted to is that it was
00:03:19.580 such a specific thing that she had received a phone call. The sources didn't say that Taylor
00:03:25.260 had reached out and invited her to her wedding. They mentioned specifically that she had called
00:03:30.460 her. I wonder if a this could be a test from Taylor Swift seeing if she could still trust
00:03:37.900 Blake if she actually called her to test if this actually would leak to the press which it did or
00:03:44.660 if Blake's team just gambled on this thinking that Taylor is so busy with the wedding she's not
00:03:50.120 going to be bothered to come out and deny this. Taylor rarely comes out and comments on anything
00:03:55.300 so the fact that she actually did this according to extra by the way who says that they have
00:04:01.720 an exclusive source on this saying that it never happened so they said here in extra that taylor
00:04:08.360 swift and blake lively reconciliation call reports are false exclusive taylor and blake did not have
00:04:16.660 a reconciliation phone call ahead of swift's upcoming nuptials extra can reveal according to
00:04:22.900 our sources recent reports that taylor called blake to clear the air following her being dragged
00:04:28.160 into the lake lively justin baldoni lawsuit a way off no call was made so this is totally
00:04:36.240 embarrassing they did not say if blake had been invited to the wedding or not they did not comment
00:04:44.200 on that they just said there has been no phone call so according to tmz taylor had a bachelorette
00:04:50.420 party this weekend with her friends at her Rhode Island estate while Blake Wively was up in
00:04:57.220 Pound Ridge, New York. And she was caught by a paparazzi. It looks like on the photos that she
00:05:04.160 was on her way in to buy something because her cart was empty. And you could tell from the
00:05:10.520 quality of the photos that these photos are taken from afar. They're taken by a paparazzi.
00:05:16.440 so the byline of these photos are the image direct.com which is basically a a photo agency
00:05:24.060 so these companies so these pictures are taken professionally so who knew that Blake was going
00:05:29.700 to arrive at this shopping mall one thing would be if they took photos while she was exiting
00:05:35.200 because then someone might have seen her entering the mall and called the paparazzi or whatever
00:05:40.440 but here they were already there when she arrived it looks like in these photos also of course what
00:05:47.060 she's wearing is very unflattering so I believe that Blake Levy probably didn't call herself
00:05:53.800 unless she wanted really unflattering photos of herself coming out I don't think Anna Wintour
00:06:01.200 which is allegedly the person trying to bring her back in to Hollywood or back into fashion
00:06:08.320 would approve of this outfit it reminds me of everything that she's wearing and it ends with
00:06:13.860 us just layer on top of layers all of this stuff it just looks really frumpy as they're saying in
00:06:19.420 the daily mail article and so why would she want to be photographed looking like this i don't know
00:06:24.980 maybe she wanted to look relatable or something i believe if she called them herself they would
00:06:29.860 probably go closer up to her and i don't know if she really wanted this look to come out it reminded
00:06:36.740 me a little bit about those pictures of her at Trader Joe's during Thanksgiving. She was shopping.
00:06:43.340 She was trying to be just like us. So I don't know if this is part of her new image building.
00:06:49.160 I'm so confused about her PR stunts because they make absolutely no sense to me. So who knows? Do
00:06:55.240 you think she called the paparazzi herself or do you think that someone else did? Did Ryan Reynolds
00:07:00.820 call the paparazzi on his wife? Who knows? Did Taylor Swift call the paparazzi on her saying,
00:07:06.340 hey I know Blake is up at her estate this weekend why don't you go up there and take some photos of 1.00
00:07:11.700 her so people know that she's not here at the bachelorette party because I do not want her here 0.77
00:07:17.100 I don't know what do you think as I said on Saturday there's so many rumors about this wedding
00:07:22.340 and a lot of people are now believing that they actually got married already and now they're just
00:07:27.720 having some celebrations I don't know it would be weird to have a bachelorette party after you got
00:07:33.160 married but what i do believe is that taylor wants so much attention around surrounding this wedding 0.97
00:07:38.140 why does she keep planting all these easter eggs to get so much attention if she doesn't want that
00:07:43.600 i have a feeling the more fuzz and the bigger the wedding the shorter the marriage i don't know just
00:07:49.680 as an example look at zendaya and tom holland who just got married without telling anyone i feel
00:07:55.380 that they have a really healthy relationship i don't know why it's something about the two of
00:07:59.300 them that i really like anyways of course blake lively took the opportunity to wish her husband
00:08:04.460 a happy father's day yesterday and as i mentioned on friday ryan reynolds also celebrated all fathers
00:08:10.960 on father's day by showing a clip from one of his movies where his character is lifting up this
00:08:17.800 little girl in the air asking if she's dieting because she's so light before he slaps her on
00:08:24.420 the butt to push her down on the steps saying go fix your hair really funny stuff now that we know
00:08:31.460 what kind of person he is anyways Blake on the other hand didn't use humor in celebrating father's 0.96
00:08:38.800 day she reposted a speech that she did for Ryan when he received some kind of award or whatever
00:08:46.300 I remember this speech and she was like oh my god I love you so much and I'm pregnant and then she
00:08:51.060 posted a photo of him saying that no one I've ever known is greater than this man. She must not know
00:08:58.440 a lot of men because if she doesn't know anyone greater than Ryan Reynolds that's really really
00:09:03.500 sad. She also posted a photo of her herself and her dad. She lost her dad a few years ago where
00:09:09.700 she's saying that she's sending love to everyone who doesn't have their dad anymore. Yeah it's sad
00:09:14.900 when you lose your dad. I know what that's like so I'm not gonna say that Blake Lively wasn't sad
00:09:19.240 when she lost her dad, but I feel like she's using all these moments now to just get some sympathy
00:09:24.640 and I'm not buying it. Anyway, let's look at what Liz Plank just did. Justin Baldoni's ex-podcast 0.64
00:09:32.880 host that really stabbed him in the back. But before we get into that, a big thank you to the
00:09:39.100 sponsor of this video, Lisa. I've struggled with sleep my entire adult life, so when I finally find
00:09:44.740 something that can help me get better rest, I pay attention. One of the best changes that I made
00:09:50.140 recently was upgrading my mattress to Lisa. I spend so many hours a day doing these videos,
00:09:57.260 editing them, and I get up early in the morning to start my research. So it's really important to me
00:10:02.620 to get quality sleep. What I noticed instantly with Lisa was how comfortable and supportive it
00:10:08.540 is. I get deeper sleep and I wake up much more rested and I'm not tossing and turning around
00:10:14.380 as much as I used to. And that also includes this guy who sometimes is allowed to come into bed
00:10:19.960 and sleep next to me. What I really love about Lisa is that it's easy to find the mattress that 0.79
00:10:25.660 really fits you. I have lower back issues. Magnus has lower back issues. So it's super important for 0.99
00:10:31.720 both of us to have the right mattress. And Lisa offers this really quick sleep quiz that helps
00:10:38.440 you match with a perfect mattress. And big bonus, every mattress comes with free shipping, easy
00:10:44.900 returns, and 120-day sleep trial. That is super important because for someone like me who has a
00:10:51.800 lower back issue, sometimes it takes a week or two before you actually know if the mattress is right

00:11:28.220 okay so when i saw this clip of liz plank on youtube sitting in her bathtub recording some
00:11:36.960 kind of teaser for her podcast i was shocked by the way thank you mateo for sending me this clip
00:11:45.940 i was sitting there like is this for real so she's addressing for the first time here
00:11:51.680 what it was like for her being dragged into this lawsuit that her text messages ended up in the
00:11:58.520 New York Times. She named this podcast Happy Regina George Anniversary. If you're not that
00:12:05.960 familiar with pop culture, Regina George was the mean girl. But here I'm assuming she is referring
00:12:14.160 to herself here, Liz Plank, as the absolute mean girl. But anyways, so she starts talking about
00:12:20.140 here how you are an exclusive friend of hers because you're watching this on her youtube channel
00:12:27.840 look i do this podcast because i really love talking to you if i just wanted to be rich and
00:12:33.300 famous and uh be in whatever right like i could name names for all of these people but usually i
00:12:38.520 don't to protect their privacy but now that it's just you and me now that's just the both of us
00:12:43.740 um i do want to go deeper on certain things that i just yeah she says if i only wanted to be rich
00:12:48.260 famous. I could name names of all these people. She's pretending that she couldn't talk about this
00:12:53.900 earlier on. Of course, she could have talked about this the entire time. She's not a defendant in
00:12:58.900 this lawsuit. She could have talked about this as much as she wanted to. Yeah, she usually doesn't
00:13:03.980 do this to protect people's privacy. But now that it's just you and me here on YouTube in front of
00:13:10.140 the whole world, then I can talk about it. So often when we watch the Patreon, Jesse and I were
00:13:15.380 talking and I you know I said like what are all the times that you have like cut something from
00:13:20.600 the episode and let's just actually only talk only like talk about the things that I couldn't talk
00:13:26.300 about on with my other friends which are great we love our other friends but this is close friends
00:13:30.320 only so now is only for close friends meaning friends who pay her to be friends with her look
00:13:36.980 like I'm aware that this could end up on a billboard in Times Square never text anything
00:13:40.900 that you don't want to end up in a billboard in Times Square. And in my case, I mean, talk about
00:13:45.060 somewhere where we're going to name names and a story that I wasn't able to talk about,
00:13:48.400 which I guess we can. But I did have my text end up not in a billboard in Times Square,
00:13:53.680 but I did have my text end up in a like the most famous Hollywood feud, probably in modern
00:14:00.980 American history. Only a narcissist would say that I know the possibilities of this video ending up
00:14:06.460 on a billboard on Times Square?
00:14:09.040 Why would it end up on a billboard on Times Square?
00:14:11.700 And you're saying that I'm not doing this
00:14:13.500 to become rich and famous or anything like that,
00:14:15.680 but I know that this video could end up on Times Square
00:14:19.040 and there's nothing I really, I can do about it.
00:14:21.700 And also while you're sitting in a bathtub,
00:14:25.100 half naked to talk about this,
00:14:27.700 unless you are really, really hoping
00:14:30.440 that it would end up on a billboard in Times Square.
00:14:34.560 I am literally just a girl.
00:14:36.200 Like, I am just a French-Canadian girl, 39-year-old girl, and I was just texting my friends, and
00:14:42.060 then it ended up in the New York Times.
00:14:44.860 I was just texting my friends.
00:14:48.260 I just have to mention here that I'm friends with Blake and Ryan, and I just refer to them
00:14:54.040 as my friends.
00:14:55.380 We know that they're friends because we've seen the text messages when she was backstabbing
00:15:00.680 Justin Baldoni to Blake and Ryan. While, by the way, she was still doing the podcast with Justin.
00:15:07.420 And she posted on Instagram about him saying that I love you as my brother. And she was so excited
00:15:14.260 when he came to her birthday party. And she said to him on this podcast that everyone was crushing
00:15:20.800 on him. I mean, this girl to me is the definition of fake. And then I'm literally just a girl,
00:15:28.640 a 39 year old girl a french canadian girl you're not a just a girl you're a woman first of all
00:15:36.340 you're 39 years old you are a woman and why are you just saying that you're just a girl to make
00:15:41.880 yourself look small to make yourself look like a victim because you're just a girl sitting on 0.95
00:15:48.080 youtube in a bikini trying to sell out your friends that you had a podcast with for over i
00:15:55.060 think over three years they were working together on this podcast and now she's so desperate for 0.99
00:16:00.800 people to pay to hear her trash Justin Baldoni behind a paywall that she is sitting in a bathtub 0.58
00:16:08.780 in a bikini to get attention and this really affected her so much that her text messages
00:16:15.160 ended up in the New York Times because her friends Blake Wiley and Ryan Reynolds made sure of that
00:16:21.380 But they're still her friends, by the way.
00:16:24.160 Justin Baldoni is not, of course.
00:16:26.740 And here comes the worst part.
00:16:28.680 The thing that I didn't say on the podcast,
00:16:31.040 because out of respect for someone with no respect for me, but still,
00:16:34.900 I didn't mention that he was... 0.93
00:16:40.580 She made a teaser about how she's going to trash Justin behind a paywall. 0.51
00:16:47.640 If you want to have a field day, go look at the comments on this video. 0.89
00:16:52.260 By the way, at the time I watched it, it's been up for four days and she had like 400 views.
00:16:57.980 So it's not taking off anytime soon.
00:17:00.260 It's not going to end up on a billboard on Times Square.
00:17:03.980 It might end up as a screenshot in Daily Mail, though.
00:17:07.080 I hope it does.
00:17:07.940 I hope they pick up this story because I think it's outrageous.
00:17:11.780 And here she is on a podcast, Patreon sneak peek.
00:17:15.420 remember regina george her podcast is called boy problems and she says to celebrate one year of boy
00:17:22.400 problems i created a patreon where i'm unpacking boy lore for close friends only meaning only
00:17:28.800 people who pay to be her friends uh remember regina george well there's something i didn't
00:17:34.120 tell you guys about him that's pretty crucial to why it didn't work out and then she says
00:17:41.040 see you on Patreon, submit your boy problems here. And the way she's like pretending to be a feminist 1.00
00:17:47.320 by trashing men. Her whole podcast is about her boy problems. The reasons why she has boy problems 0.79
00:17:54.180 is because she's a narcissist and she's a backstabber and she's an opportunist who's 1.00
00:17:59.640 willing to throw anyone under the bus if she thinks that is going to benefit her. I actually 1.00
00:18:05.240 saw a New York Times article that shows that this is a pattern of Liz Plank actually they did a
00:18:12.160 story in May of this year it was a story about how whimsy or being whimsy or whimsical things
00:18:19.260 is a new trend it starts off like this Liz Plank a podcaster in Los Angeles started her year in
00:18:26.000 the doldrums her spirit she felt was being weighed down by a breakup with her longtime best friend
00:18:32.640 and roommate, compounded further by the punishing news cycle. But her mood began to improve when
00:18:39.580 she went to bed in her whimsy pajamas, a cream ruffle tank top and shorts, and more whimsical
00:18:45.860 activities followed. Anyways, long article here about this new trend, but I think the fact that
00:18:51.000 it mentions here that she had a breakup with her longtime best friend and roommate is quite telling.
00:18:56.420 First of all, why does the world know that she has a breakup with her longtime friend?
00:19:00.600 Is she trying to sell Patreon memberships to trash her best friend, her ex-best friend as well, maybe?
00:19:07.520 So she obviously tried to monetize on this breakup as well, selling this new trend whimsical,
00:19:13.600 wearing whimsical pajamas to talk about how it has weighed her down that she broke up with her best friend and roommates.
00:19:21.760 Just a reminder of what she actually said two days after that New York Times article was published,
00:19:29.760 the hippies on Justin Baldoni she very publicly came out with a long statement parts of it said
00:19:37.080 we all deserve better and I know that together we can create it I will have more to share soon as I
00:19:43.280 continue to process everything that has happened in the meantime I will continue to support everyone
00:19:49.280 who calls out injustice and holds the people standing in their way accountable yes and she
00:19:55.980 knew that this lawsuit was coming because we know that she spoke regularly to Blake and Ryan. We've
00:20:02.900 seen text exchanges between them talking about Justin. So she was a part of this major plan that
00:20:09.260 I spoke about before when all these people came out to support Blake's narrative. Amongst them
00:20:15.080 also, as you know, WME dumped him the same day that article came out after pressure from Ryan
00:20:21.040 Reynolds and Liz Plank did this and it also came out that Justin Baldoni's Women's Solidarity Award
00:20:26.720 was rescinded amid allegations so they made sure that the infrastructure around this article was
00:20:33.280 ready to go by the time they published that article because no one responds this quickly
00:20:38.860 and as you know it was Christmas as well so all these people were like oh let's have crisis
00:20:43.980 meetings so that Justin Baldoni have to give us this award back is that no and Liz Plank was a
00:20:49.760 big part of that it's so interesting to me what she said at the end of the clip that I didn't talk
00:20:55.840 about this out of respect for the person who doesn't obviously respect me or whatever she said
00:21:00.600 like how can you expect anyone to respect you the way that you've acted and then you're sitting there 0.98
00:21:05.680 in a bikini in a bathtub asking for respect while you're asking people to give you money to trash
00:21:12.540 someone i mean she said in an interview in people magazine in may of last year when she revealed
00:21:21.240 her big move after ending the podcast with justin boldoni to people magazine she said if we're going
00:21:29.340 to dismantle the patriarchy we might as well have snacks and giggles if we're all going down in
00:21:35.620 flames we might as well roast some marshmallows yeah i guess justin boldoni was just a marshmallow
00:21:41.380 for her and people also say here though boy problems is packed with humor plank says her
00:21:47.520 underlying themes are anything but light if you're not laughing you're probably crying and i don't
00:21:54.880 have time to reapply my mascara every 10 minutes she jokes feminism should feel more like a block

00:22:19.840 believed that has nothing to do with feminism feminism is about equal rights that's it and
00:22:27.000 what she's selling has nothing to do with equal rights anyways as i said in the beginning i shared
00:22:33.020 a song last week that was written by a survivor she wanted to stay anonymous and as you know the
00:22:40.140 song that I shared was so powerful and I saw so many people in the comment section asking where
00:22:45.580 can I download this song I want to play it again I want to share it with people so I reached out
00:22:50.920 to her again asking you know is there something that you can do or you want to do to let people
00:22:57.080 enjoy this song more or to listen to it more and I asked if she could record a voice memo to you
00:23:02.700 guys and she did and i will play that for you now but i also wanted to mention that as she's saying
00:23:07.640 in this video that you can download the song now it's going to cost you one dollar or if you want
00:23:13.400 to add more to that you're also welcome to do that and everything that she makes from this song

00:23:50.400 express my gratitude for the overwhelming amount of love and kindness and support that was shown
00:23:58.700 not just for the song or for my words but also for just the encouragement that you gave to me
00:24:09.140 personally I cannot express how needed they were so thank you for that and it was just so beautiful
00:24:18.340 to see everybody be there for one another there were some people who for the first time ever were
00:24:26.340 able to express what had happened to them and immediately there was somebody there to tell
00:24:32.320 them that they weren't alone so thank you i know i am speaking to a group of people who understand
00:24:39.160 that trauma is not a trend as somebody put it so well in the comments we are not just survivors
00:24:45.540 we are warriors and we are in this fight even if it is through a screen thank you thank you for
00:24:54.000 being here for it and for not giving up on justice and seeing it through. I think there
00:25:01.560 were enough of us that were ready to say not this time. No. And because of that and because
00:25:10.800 of your ideas, I am so proud to announce that Me Too Not You is now available on Bandcamp

00:25:27.500 i am even more proud to announce that for each download the money that it raises will
00:25:34.000 be going towards the national center for victims of crime
00:25:37.640 thank you for believing in this song and its potential and what it could do i think that
