Blake Lively‘s publicist, Leslie Sloane, is denying a brand new report alleging that she planted false tales within the press about behind-the-scenes battle in opposition to actor/director Justin Baldoni on the set of It Ends With Us.
A brand new Day by day Mail article alleges that Baldoni is planning to countersue costar Vigorous, 37, instantly after the vacations in response to her headline-making lawsuit filed on December 20. Amongst different claims, Baldoni’s deliberate countersuit will supposedly allege that publicist Sloane tried to tarnish Baldoni’s fame by leaking tales to media shops, in accordance with the Day by day Mail.
“I used to be contacted on 8/11 by Sara Nathan (Melissa Nathan’s sister) forwarding an nameless tip that Web page Six acquired, relating to allegations of HR complaints on the set of It Ends with Us,” Vigorous’s rep, Leslie Sloan, tells Us Weekly in an announcement. “After that, I used to be contacted by numerous press shops asking about allegations of HR complaints. When contacted, I responded to press questions by referring them to Wayfarer or Sony for data relating to HR complaints.”
Sloane added, “It’s clear that Mr. Baldoni and his Wayfarer Associates are suggesting that I originated press tales about HR complaints on set, which is fake. Please learn Ms. Vigorous’s Criticism and the Criticism filed by Jonesworks LLC and Stephanie Jones, which offers the small print of the marketing campaign in opposition to my consumer.”
As beforehand reported, Vigorous sued Baldoni for sexual harassment on the set of the home violence drama, and in addition accused her director/costar of mounting a smear marketing campaign in opposition to her in the course of the movie’s press tour final summer time.
“I hope that my authorized motion helps pull again the curtain on these sinister retaliatory ways to hurt individuals who converse up about misconduct and helps defend others who could also be focused,” Vigorous mentioned in an announcement to the New York Instances.
Via his lawyer Bryan Freedman, Baldoni referred to as the allegations “fully false, outrageous and deliberately salacious.”
In response to the Day by day Mail story a couple of countersuit, Freedman informed Deadline:
“I’m not going to talk to when or what number of lawsuits we’re submitting however once we file our first lawsuit, it’s going to shock everybody who has been manipulated into believing a demonstrably false narrative,. It is going to be supported by real evidence and inform the true story. In over 30 years of practising, I’ve by no means seen this stage of unethical habits deliberately fueled by media manipulation.”
