Justin Baldoni alleges Blake Lively joked about his nose on movie set

Justin Baldoni claims Blake Lively made a joke about his nose on It Ends With Us set.

In his $400 million lawsuit against Lively and her husband Ryan Reynolds as well as their publicist Leslie Sloane and her PR firm Vision PR, Inc., Baldoni has alleged that the actress, 37, made body-shaming jokes about his nose on the movie set.

Baldoni also claimed that Lively joked he "should get plastic surgery" while filming a scene for the movie.

The January 16 suit also refuted Lively's allegation from her December 20 lawsuit that alleged Baldoni personally added "graphic content" to the film.

Baldoni's attorney Bryan Freedman detailed that Lively "began to joke about Baldoni’s nose, which he laughed off and joked in turn, even as Lively joked that he should get plastic surgery," while the pair filmed a "romance montage" of their characters on a date. 

 "This lawsuit is a legal action based on an overwhelming amount of untampered evidence detailing Blake Lively and her team’s duplicitous attempt to destroy Justin Baldoni, his team, and their respective companies by disseminating grossly edited, unsubstantiated, new, and doctored information to the media," the legal documents read.

His legal team further challenged Lively on authenticity, insisting that they are willing to back up their claims with unconditional provision of evidence.

"It is clear based on our own all out willingness to provide all complete text messages, emails, video footage and other documentary evidence that was shared between the parties in real time, that this is a battle she will not win and will certainly regret. Blake Lively was either severely misled by her team or intentionally and knowingly misrepresented the truth."

Baldoni's lawsuit continued, "Let’s not forget, Ms. Lively and her team attempted to bulldoze reputations and livelihoods for heinously selfish reasons through their own dangerous manipulation of the media before even taking any actual legal action. We know the truth, and now the public does too," the statement continues. "Justin and his team have nothing to hide, documents do not lie."

Baldoni's legal move comes after he first sued the New York Times for libel and false light invasion of privacy over the December 21 article following Lively's sexual harassment lawsuit against her It Ends With Us costar and director Baldoni.

His attorneys also refuted the idea that the filmmaker personally inserted a scene featuring "graphic content, including a scene in which Ms. Lively was to orgasm on-camera." 

They claim that Lively "refused to meet with the intimacy coordinator to plan out their scenes," allegedly leaving Baldoni to meet with an intimacy coordinator alone and later meet with Lively at her home "and often while Lively's husband was present" to discuss the scenes in question.
