The legal complaint, filed to the California Civil Rights Department, contained pages of text messages allegedly sent between Justin and his PR team.

Subpoenaed text messages revealed how Justin and his PR team allegedly orchestrated social media campaigns discreditingBlake following her claims of sexual harassment on theIt Ends with Usset.

Blake’s legal complaint also accused Justin of exploiting domestic violence themes in the film’s promotion to deflect criticism.

Wayfarer Studios denied the allegations, calling Blake’s claims a baseless attempt to repair her reputation.

Lawyer Bryan Freedman wrote: “These claims are completely false, outrageous, and intentionally salacious with an intent to publicly hurt and rehash a narrative in the media.”



Nevertheless, the lawyer did not address the misconduct allegations against Baldoni and Heath, instead accusing Lively of fabricating negative stories about them.

Blake had initially raised concerns about Justin’s behavior and creative decisions during filming, including allegations of improvised kissing and inappropriate discussions of his sex life.

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pantstalent had also accused producer Jamey Heath of showing her explicit videos and invading her privacy on set, prompting her legal team to demand safeguards for a safe working environment.

Moreover, Blake alleged that Justin and Jamey repeatedly entered her makeup trailer uninvited, including while she was undressed or breastfeeding, and ignored COVID-19 protocols, resulting in her and her son contracting the virus.

Her lawsuit furtheraccused Justin of orchestrating a smear campaign using social mediamanipulation and drawing inspiration from negative narratives about Hailey Bieber.
