I work on SNL and Ryan Reynolds changed his joke at the last minute to make it about the Baldoni scandal after rehearsing a different line


Wally Feresten, who has worked on the show since 1990 and is known as 'Cue Card Wally' to fans, has said the star's quip about his wife's lawsuit against her It Ends With Us co-star was Ryan's 'idea'.

Some attendees were reportedly ‘apprehensive’ about mingling with the embattled Hollywood couple, while others were less than amused with Reynolds’ apparent quip about their ongoing legal nightmare, which saw Lively accuse Baldoni, 41, of sexual harassment. The lawyer for the 41-year-old American actor and director said the suit is 'filled with unsubstantial hearsay of unnamed persons who are clearly no longer willing to come forward or publicly support her claims,' per a statement released on Wednesday. Freedman also added that his clients - which include Baldoni, his publicists, and Wayfarer Studios - 'have been transparent in providing receipts, real time documents and video showing a completely different story than what has been manipulated and cherry picked to the media.'
