Abigail Breslin Says She Had a Similar Experience to Blake Lively, Tells Men to 'Shut Up and Listen'

Abigail Breslin said she has 'been subject to the same toxic masculinity' as her 'fellow actress and woman' Blake Lively, who is suing Justin Baldoni

"As if centuries of women being underpaid, undervalued, under-appreciated, raped, harassed, terrified and used for the benefits of dick-wielding heroes would be erased because you commented on your second cousin's #MeToo Instagram saying, 'Stay strong,' " she added. Breslin went on to bring up a since-withdrawn lawsuit (seemingly, the case related to Eckhart, 56) filed against her, after she made "a confidential complaint against a coworker for unprofessional behavior," saying, "I had the silly and naive impression they would believe me." The Academy Award nominee also alleged that her "previous abuse" in a relationship was "brought up as 'unfounded claims' " during the case, "and I was made to seem like someone who just goes after men, rather than being seen as someone who has been dealing as a professional in this world, since I was a child, standing up for herself."
