Flaawsome Talk with Kjersti Flaa - They Knew Blake Was Lying !!

00:00:00.000 Oh my gosh, what a bombshell!

00:00:09.380 Hi and welcome to Flossom Talk, I'm Sashty Floor, journalist, Hollywood truth teller,

00:00:14.020 and your voice of reason in a town built on delusion.

00:00:18.780 Oh my gosh, what a bombshell!

00:00:24.460 Thanks to Barchi Gohawk who found this.

00:00:28.700 So yesterday I showed part of this breakdown of expenses from Blake Lively's attorneys.

00:00:35.040 And guess what's in there?

00:00:37.160 Someone at their office is definitely getting fired today.

00:00:41.260 So here's the proof that Blake Lively's attorneys did research on what happens if you commit perjury in a CRD complaint.

00:00:52.800 This is hilarious and so bad for Blake.

00:00:57.880 Can you imagine her and Ryan's reaction when they find out that her attorneys charged them

00:01:03.040 $10,000 to do research on how to deal with the fact that she probably lied in her complaints.

00:01:11.580 And also, let's look at this.

00:01:13.900 What is this?

00:01:14.720 Is this regarding Van Zandt, the sham lawsuit, and how they were planning for that information

00:01:20.860 never to get out to the public?

00:01:22.960 Talking about her attorneys, they also had to turn off their comment section on social

00:01:27.800 media. And in the middle of all this drama, Blake and Ryan have escaped New York and Taylor Swift's

00:01:34.220 wedding. TMC has some exclusive photos of Blake and Ryan being at some horse events with their

00:01:41.200 daughter. And it looks like Blake is really busy reading her Instagram comments and not being

00:01:46.500 concerned that she's not one of the thousand people that are expected at Taylor Swift's wedding today.

00:01:53.140 Also, every media outlet is reporting on what's happening at Madison Square Garden this weekend.

00:01:58.360 As you know, Taylor is getting married there this weekend.

00:02:00.840 We all thought it was a joke, but it's actually true.

00:02:03.580 It is the most tacky thing I have ever heard.

00:02:07.060 And to add to that, insiders are now saying that the whole event seemed like a big grift.

00:02:13.820 And also, let's look at this reel that Ryan Reynolds just posted on his Instagram,

00:02:18.080 reminding everyone that he kissed Andrew Garfield at the Golden Globes

00:02:24.760 trying to steal the thunder away from the winner that year, Ryan Gosling.

00:02:30.000 Yeah, when he's not posting about soccer on his Instagram story,

00:02:34.460 Ryan is trying to remind us that once he was a big A-lister and he used to have friends. 0.73

00:02:40.460 Okay, so let's just jump into this bombshell that Butcha Go Hawks discovered.

00:02:47.220 she made a tiktok video about this yesterday a lot of people send it to me and when i was reading i

00:02:52.540 was like oh my gosh this is not really happening how can anyone mess up like this so here it says

00:02:59.620 i think this was on page five as you know as i talked about yesterday is about 165 pages with

00:03:06.140 these expenses so it would take about a week to read through all of them but she managed to find

00:03:11.860 this post. This is amazing. So this was done on February 17th, 2025. So about a month after Justin

00:03:20.400 Baldoni and the Wayfair parties had filed their lawsuit against Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds and

00:03:25.520 Leslie Sloan. So what does her attorneys do? This is what they did. And this thing took them 8.3

00:03:33.260 hours and they charged Blake Lively close to $10,000 to do this. It says here, research case

00:03:41.200 law and draft summary re punitive damage for defamation claims they're saying that took 3.6

00:03:48.240 hours research case law and draft summary re defamation by implication that took 1.9 hours

00:03:57.600 and here it comes research case law re crd complaints perjury that took two hours

00:04:09.040 research case law re-perjury in statements made to state agencies that only took 0.1 hours

00:04:19.700 to do research on but isn't it fantastic that her own lawyers spent hours trying to figure out what

00:04:30.500 would happen if it came out that she had committed perjury as you know Ezra Hudson signed that CRD

00:04:37.520 complaints say that I believe under perjury blah blah blah that all of this is true and correct

00:04:43.780 and I believe my clients and here you go did they actually believe their client it doesn't look like

00:04:49.440 it I would have loved to be a fly on the wall when all of these attorneys started going through all

00:04:54.880 the evidence that Justin Baldoni filed on that website you know he released a whole website with

00:05:01.100 all the evidence all the text messages emails the timeline of events and when they saw that

00:05:07.460 I can assure you they went into panic mode and this is the proof of that. So this basically means

00:05:16.120 that her lawyers were exploring whether statements made in the CRD complaint could potentially be

00:05:22.320 challenged as knowingly false statements to a government agency and what legal consequences

00:05:28.900 could follow if that was proven. I remember when her attorney Michael Gottlieb was interviewed

00:05:35.100 on CNN about this and every time he was talking about Blake's claims he was using the word

00:05:42.100 allegedly and she alleges. He never said this happened or this happened. He was so careful

00:05:48.560 with the language he chose saying Ms. Lively alleges this and Ms. Lively alleges that.

00:05:54.060 She's determined to see her claims through and to pursue them to have a full

00:05:57.960 public accountability of what she has alleged happened to her. The complaint that Ms. Lively

00:06:03.340 filed alleges that a retaliatory campaign was launched against her and every time as you know

00:06:08.500 when brian friedman spoke about what happened to his clients he would state everything as fact

00:06:13.000 so my question is why would they have to research this unless they were worried that their client

00:06:17.860 was not telling the truth and as you know they wanted to sanction brian friedman for saying that

00:06:24.820 blake lively was lying and they've been pointing out so many times in all their legal filings

00:06:30.400 that Blake did not act out of malice,

00:06:33.360 that there was no evidence that she was acting with malice.

00:06:38.280 And here it seems like they didn't even believe it themselves.

00:06:41.460 Yeah, so Blake's attorneys kept arguing that questioning her claims even was sanctionable.

00:06:47.500 At the same time, her lawyers were privately researching

00:06:51.040 what would happen if it came out that she lied.

00:06:54.400 You also have to remember that these attorneys actually wrote that CRD complaint

00:06:59.020 and they signed off on it and then afterwards they decide to actually do the research if what

00:07:06.160 could happen if it comes out that she's lying here. The biggest joke here is that they actually

00:07:11.360 forgot to remove this from the list of expenses that they had. Talk about epic level stupid here 0.99

00:07:18.880 to leave something like that in. I don't think it's going to have big consequences legally now 0.99

00:07:24.620 But PR-wise, when this comes out to the media, that her own lawyers were researching if she was lying and what would happen if that came out, I mean, priceless.

00:07:35.440 As you know, this entire narrative from Blake Lively, even her latest brief, has been written and produced by storyteller Ryan Reynolds.

00:07:46.320 And these attorneys had to sign off on all of this, including that latest brief, trying to charge the Wayfair Party's $8 million for attorney's fees.

00:07:56.900 That is definitely something coming from Blake and Ryan.

00:08:00.860 Like every attorney that I've spoken to about this says that this is outrageous.

00:08:05.440 It's insanity.

00:08:07.060 And of course, these attorneys would not do that if it wasn't for the pressure coming from Blake and Ryan trying to make this look like a win in the media.

00:08:15.820 and then they mess up like this it is just it just really made my day okay so let's jump

00:08:22.000 to another post in this list of expenses thank you Anne for sending me this okay so here on

00:08:30.860 reddit it says manzan question mark question mark and here is another post that cost Blake

00:08:39.480 lively $4,000. And this is done by Samantha Katz. We've heard her name before. I'll let you know

00:08:48.840 why pretty soon. And it says here that it took 3.9 hours to do this research.

00:08:56.600 Research regarding strategy for preventing public disclosure of XX. Read cases in connection with

00:09:07.660 same email s rustner summary of research it says here on reddit um are you guys seeing what i'm

00:09:17.420 seeing as a reminder samantha katsy or cats is the lawyer who initiated the sham van zan lawsuit

00:09:27.260 and subsequent sham van zan subpoena how much y'all want to bet xx is van zan there are so many

00:09:37.160 entries that have my jaw on the floor so if you're bored open to the excel sheet on your laptop

00:09:42.660 i would say enjoy but there's nothing enjoyable seeing entries of what we knew was happening this

00:09:48.780 whole time and someone else pointed to this post as well call with e hudson ezra hudson regarding

00:09:56.360 research regarding process relating to disclosure of text and strategy next step okay i'm sure

00:10:05.280 there's going to be so much more gold in this list of expenses and luckily I've downloaded the

00:10:10.800 document so when Blake Lively's attorneys are trying to seal it later on if they're trying to

00:10:15.860 do that we all have seen it already if you don't know what the Van Zandt lawsuit is it was a sham

00:10:22.900 lawsuit filed by Blake and Ryan's company signed by their attorney and it was a way for them to get

00:10:32.380 hold of Jennifer Abel's phone, Justin Baldoni's publicist. And they used all those text messages

00:10:38.520 in their CRD complaint. And then they later gave them to, and they also gave them to the New York

00:10:44.200 Times. Also, that lawsuit was just dropped the day before her CRD complaint was filed. So they

00:10:51.940 definitely did not want anyone to find out about that. And of course, that's also why they filed

00:10:58.380 that lawsuit against 10 anonymous people from a company they thought no one could trace back

00:11:06.100 to blake and ryan but guess what someone did also thank you shy stuff for sending me this

00:11:13.580 so it turns out that manat phelps and phillips had to turn off the comments on a post they just

00:11:21.920 posted congratulating Manat's top attorney Ezra Hudson so funny no comments have been turned off

00:11:30.940 on this post on the LinkedIn you can still react or share it though if you want to and if you go

00:11:36.980 to Ezra Hudson's personal account guess what she has limited her comments I spoke about this post

00:11:44.720 the other day when she is congratulating herself for representing courageous Blake Lively as a

00:11:51.160 client who's the first one in history to receive attorney's fees for this me too law 47.1 that she

00:11:58.500 hijacked from the author of that law she didn't mention that in the post by the way anyways now

00:12:04.840 she has limited comments on that post so you can only comment if you are connected to her so three

00:12:12.480 people commented saying that that's amazing i guess that's the price you have to pay when you're

00:12:19.000 being so freaking unethical.

00:12:21.960 Anyways, let's look at where Blake and Ryan is right now.

00:12:25.100 As predicted, they would leave Manhattan

00:12:27.600 when one of their neighbors, Taylor Swift, is getting married,

00:12:32.140 basically shutting off all of Midtown

00:12:34.640 in the middle of 4th of July weekend.

00:12:36.980 And keep in mind that they're also basically neighbors

00:12:40.200 with Taylor Swift in Tribeca.

00:12:43.100 Anyways, TMZ has the exclusive photos here

00:12:46.320 saying blake lively and ryan reynolds galloping away from taylor's wedding take over it says here

00:12:53.760 that blake and ryan are spending taylor swift and travis kelsey's wedding weekend a couple of

00:12:58.420 hundred miles away from the festivities another indication that blake and taylor wants close

00:13:03.840 friendship is over as you know 1100 people have rsvp'd to her wedding and if you're not one of

00:13:10.600 her 1100 closest friends then you should not consider yourself as a friend anymore anyway

00:13:16.480 says here that TMZ has obtained photos showing Blake and Ryan cheering on their daughter Betty

00:13:22.880 as she competed in a horse show Thursday at a local farm in Lake Placid New York we told Betty

00:13:29.760 rode well enough to earn a second place to finish so it's interesting when you look at the photos

00:13:34.980 Blake is on her phone in both of these photos so yeah maybe she's checking her Instagram comments

00:13:41.540 or maybe she's looking at updates surrounding Taylor Swift's wedding who knows the family

00:13:47.140 outing comes as Taylor and Travis are surrounded by close family and their current close friends

00:13:52.820 it also says here that as the wedding festivities kick off we've seen that Taylor has rekindled

00:14:00.420 with other friends including Carly Kloss. It's clear Blake is still on the sidelines but she

00:14:06.660 made the most of her free time with Ryan and Betty. Yeah this weekend is not going to be easy

00:14:13.300 for Blake Lively. Anyways let's get into what's happening behind closed doors at Taylor Swift's

00:14:18.820 wedding and also this toned of ridiculous cringe post from Ryan Reynolds pretending that he still

00:14:26.980 has a list friends but before we get into that I wanted to thank the sponsor of this video

00:16:36.600 wedding weekend was in full swing already and he's been doing a lot of these posts lately

00:16:42.140 looking back at moments from his career with other big stars kind of reminding everyone like

00:16:48.660 hello i'm still an a-lister look i'm surrounded by other a-listers anyways i remember this

00:16:54.940 interview it was an actor on actor interview in variety and ryan reynolds and andrew garfield

00:17:01.420 interviewed each other and Ryan wanted to remind everyone then and now that he kissed Andrew

00:17:08.880 Garfield during the Golden Globes. And the idea was that Andrew Garfield wasn't going to kiss his

00:17:14.160 wife when he won, but he was going to kiss Ryan Reynolds, I guess. And then he didn't win and

00:17:19.120 Ryan Gosling won. And Ryan was like, let's do it anyway. And so they did. I also retrospectively

00:17:27.360 felt a little bit insensitive I did towards Ryan's moment but I was grateful that it was in

00:17:31.820 such a wide shot nobody actually noticed until later and it was actually kind of perfect but I

00:17:37.680 was able to apologize to Ryan and say I'm so so sorry I actually just egged his house which is

00:17:43.040 super childish to do but I didn't feel so great about losing as you could hear Andrew Garfield

00:17:47.600 felt bad about it which I think is a good thing I like Andrew Garfield I met him a few times he

00:17:52.660 seemed like a decent person and he was like we took away we actually stole the thunder from

00:17:57.700 Ryan Gosling in his moments and got the attention on us and Ryan was like yeah but we were far in

00:18:03.620 the back and he said that he actually apologized to Ryan afterwards of course Ryan Reynolds didn't

00:18:09.180 do that but he knew that was going to get a lot of attention obviously because he needed that

00:18:14.600 attention as you know Ryan Reynolds needs to be in the center of attention wherever he goes

00:18:19.680 and now he wants to remind everyone that he and Andrew Garfield has this great connection

00:18:25.160 which I'm sure Andrew Garfield is not happy about and he captioned it missing Garfield a little

00:18:32.720 extra today why would he miss him a little extra today does he always miss him this is a way for

00:18:38.520 him to say I'm friends with Andrew Garfield and look at me I'm so funny all the time and also

00:18:43.680 obviously I don't care if I'm not invited to Taylor Swift's wedding it's the last thing on my

00:18:48.380 mind right now can you imagine by the way anyone wanting to work with ryan reynolds after we've

00:18:53.280 seen the text messages that he sent to people how he treated sony how he treated wme and of course

00:18:59.240 what he did to justin and the wayfair parties and all that not only what he did trying to punish

00:19:03.500 people but also how he manipulated and threatened people to get them to do what he wanted them to do

00:19:09.720 who wants to be surrounded by that anyways let's get into trailer swift's wedding there's so many

00:19:15.020 articles out there i haven't read all of them i'm like i really don't care about her wedding i just

00:19:19.960 think this is the tackiest thing i've ever seen i thought it was a joke when it was known that she

00:19:24.840 was going to get married in madison square garden i can't think of anything less romantic than that

00:19:29.920 here in daily mail though this article i thought was quite interesting it says that taylor and

00:19:34.740 travis wedding spectacle spectacle descends into one big grift as groom promotes his podcast

00:19:42.340 bridesmaids peddle their own brands and the bride makes sure it's all on camera. It says here they

00:19:50.000 dubbed it the America's royal wedding and it has quickly become one big money grab. Indeed, Taylor

00:19:57.220 and Travis, who were labeled as tacky for hosting their big day at Madison Square Garden, are seizing

00:20:02.720 the moment to promote podcasts and even make new comments for their armies of fans. And it says

00:20:08.960 here, their close friends used Thursday's spectacle to paddle their own brands and grab

00:20:13.640 eyeballs on the shutdown streets of Midtown Manhattan. The groom took to social media to

00:20:19.300 promote his new Heights podcast, teasing that a very special guest would be in the studio tomorrow.

00:20:26.600 I'm guessing that's pre-recorded, that he's not doing a live podcast stream from inside his own

00:20:32.620 wedding but who knows reported bridesmaid selena gomez sporting a black feathered ball gown made

00:20:39.840 sure to tout her rare beauty brand as she applied lipstick in the car while en route to the

00:20:46.780 gathering apparently selena's husband was nowhere to be seen but he was spotted by someone in new

00:20:53.480 york so maybe he doesn't want to attend the wedding we'll see if there are any more leaks about that

00:21:00.120 and why he wouldn't want to go to this wedding.

00:21:03.900 And he says here that Swift's longtime friend,

00:21:06.260 Lena Dunham, was one of the only celebrities

00:21:08.580 to make sure she was seen outside the heavily guarded venue

00:21:12.060 with the actress rolling down the window, 1.00

00:21:14.840 her blackened out SUV as she arrives at the party.

00:21:19.680 And it says here that the bride confiscated everyone's phones

00:21:23.200 so there would be no footage.

00:21:25.700 It's really sad when you don't trust your guests more than that.

00:21:28.840 And yesterday, as you know, it was only like a hundred people.

00:21:31.340 It was a small gathering.

00:21:32.840 And you don't even trust your hundred closest friends at the rehearsal

00:21:37.140 so that they can keep their phones with them. 0.56

00:21:39.640 Anyways, the reason for that, obviously, is that she doesn't want any pictures to leak 1.00

00:21:43.640 so that she can bankroll on this event herself.

00:21:46.740 Anyways, it says here that no one has confirmed what happened inside

00:21:50.440 that smaller venue yesterday at Madison Square Garden

00:21:53.740 and that there were only a hundred people there

00:21:56.340 and that some people online are speculating if they already got married

00:22:01.200 and that this is just some like party event or whatever.

00:22:04.560 And it says here that they were kicking out press from the area.

00:22:07.480 It says that the police said to them that either you got to move

00:22:11.320 or they'll start arresting people for trespassing.

00:22:13.920 An officer told journalists to refuse to go to the designated press pen.

00:22:19.020 K-9 units were spotted patrolling the perimeter of the area

00:22:22.840 with the National Guard as well as members of Swiss' own security team.

00:22:26.840 It says here the big day is set to feature a castle,

00:22:29.380 yes, being built inside the iconic stadium.

00:22:32.040 Crews were also seen hauling trees and other shrubbery

00:22:35.700 as well as a box-marked gulf.

00:22:39.960 A full street closure will then go into effect,

00:22:42.720 allowing crews to erect a drive-through tent

00:22:45.920 next to a separate entrance tent,

00:22:48.400 according to a special event permit.

00:22:50.580 And they also say here that they've seen Swift's crew arrive with a lot of cameras.

00:22:55.940 So they're guessing here that she might just make this into a movie and sell to Disney Plus or whatever, like she did with her tour.

00:23:04.240 Who knows? I would not be surprised if that happens.

00:23:06.820 And here is an insider saying the wedding footage will be hers alone to edit, release and profit from.

00:23:12.920 And they end it here saying, this is just the beginning.

00:23:16.120 There will no doubt be more glamorous, self-serving selfies and opportunities for brand pushing tomorrow as they all return to Madison Square Garden for the big event.

00:23:30.140 And with this much grift already on display, one can only imagine what's still to come.

00:23:36.060 Anyways, I have to mention that Travis and Taylor did donate $26 million to 20 charities ahead of this wedding.

00:23:48.100 So they're actually doing something nice for other people here as well.

00:23:51.920 Nine of these charities are in New York, including City Harvest Food Rescue Center, Food Bank for New York City, New York Cares, Education Through Music, Answer the Call, blah, blah, blah, a lot of them.

00:24:04.200 And they also have a rule at their wedding, absolutely no gifts allowed.

00:24:09.480 I wonder if we're going to see a big pledge from Blake and Ryan

00:24:14.280 to some charities in the next coming days.

00:24:17.240 But I think it's only going to be a pledge that they're going to do that.

00:24:20.440 They're definitely not going to pay.

00:24:22.660 As you know, after their wedding on that plantation,

00:24:25.020 they said that they were going to give a million dollars to NAACP

00:24:29.540 and it ended up only being $200,000.

00:24:32.020 So yeah, Blake and Ryan are not the most charitable people, as you know.

00:24:35.560 Then there were also reports or rumors, which I think came from Ryan Reynolds,

00:24:40.360 that he had donated 27 million of his Deadpool salary to Parkinson's research.

00:24:46.420 But that was shut down.

00:24:48.700 As you know, Ryan doesn't do anything for free and is just expecting other people to work for him for free.

00:24:54.620 So for him to give away money to charity would be completely out of this question.

00:24:59.400 Anyways, that's it to me, you guys.
