Taylor Swift might soon find herself caught in the middle of a messy legal battle between her longtime friend, Blake Lively, and actor Justin Baldoni. A recent report claims that Swift, along with Hugh Jackman, could be subpoenaed as early as this week to provide testimony in the ongoing $400 million lawsuit.
Taylor Swift could be pulled into Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni court case, claims report
The legal drama started when Blake Lively accused Justin Baldoni, her co-star in It Ends With Us, of sexual harassment. But the situation got messier when Baldoni fired back with a massive defamation lawsuit against both Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, claiming they interfered with the movie’s production. Now, according to a Daily Mail report, Taylor Swift will be drawn into the drama.
Swift isn’t personally being sued. However, her name keeps popping up in leaked text messages between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. These messages suggest that she may have used her friendship with Swift as a means of leverage in negotiations. In one alleged text, The Gossip Girl referred to the singer and her husband as her “dragons.” She was allegedly hinting that they would back her up in the dispute.
Baldoni’s lawsuit also claims Lively threatened to block the film’s trailer unless she got extra editing time. Additionally, Blake Lively allegedly dangled Taylor Swift’s song My Tears Ricochet as part of the deal. The track was later used in the trailer, raising questions about whether Swift was aware of these negotiations.
If Taylor Swift is officially served with a subpoena, she may have to testify about her communications with Blake Lively regarding the film. Legal experts say her testimony could be key in determining whether Lively used their friendship to influence decisions. Furthermore, Hugh Jackman, a close friend of Ryan Reynolds, could also be subpoenaed. Sources suggest he may have insider knowledge about Reynolds’ role in the situation.
