Blake Lively Finds Support in Hollywood Amid Allegations Against Justin Baldoni

Blake Lively, known for her role in "Gossip Girl, " recently filed a sexual harassment and retaliation complaint against her co-star and director Justin Baldoni. Sony, the distributor of their film "It Ends with Us, " has come forward to support Lively. This follows a crisis PR campaign allegedly aimed at smearing Lively's reputation. Lively's complaint includes details about misconduct by Baldoni and his company, Wayfarer Studios. Baldoni's lawyer denies any wrongdoing, but the situation is escalating quickly with many Hollywood stars backing Lively.

The complaint also sheds light on the tactics used by crisis PR teams to control narratives on social media. Sony's support for Lively is significant, given her role as a producer and marketing guru for the film. The movie, based on Colleen Hoover's novel, has been a box office success, earning $351 million globally.
