More Than A Simple Favor: Judge Grants Blake Lively’s Request To Have “Improper” Taylor Swift Bullying Claims Tossed Out


The controversy over Blake Lively allegedly strong arming pal Taylor Swift for support in the Justin Baldoni lawsuits turned out to be very short-lived

Whether they like it or not, Blake Lively and Taylor Swift ’s friendship and any bad blood between them this week became the heart of the Another Simple Favor star’s ongoing sexual harassment and smear campaign legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni – but it didn’t last long. Today, just after Bryan Freedman reiterated his claim about the requested support and threats to “release private text messages of a personal nature” if the recently subpoenaed Swift wasn’t publicly behind Lively, the judge in the multi-million-dollar suit between the IEWU stars shut the whole sideshow down. In addition to being brought on to the Sony distributed domestic violence themed film’s soundtrack, Swift had walk-on at Lively’s NYC apartment at one point during IEWU production backing her friend’s script re-writes to a cowered Baldoni.
