Blake Lively Seeks to Show 2017 Britney Spears Clip in Justin Baldoni Trial

The filing points to a credibility-focused strategy as the narrowed case heads to court.

Overview

  • Lively’s updated exhibit list for the upcoming federal trial cites a 2017 Fuse TV video where Baldoni described hugging Britney Spears and asked, “Did I just harass Britney Spears?”.
  • The filing names more than 800 exhibits, including Baldoni’s TED Talk and his “Man Enough” materials, which Lively intends to use to challenge his credibility.
  • U.S. District Judge Lewis J. Liman earlier this month dismissed 10 of Lively’s 13 claims, leaving breach of contract, retaliation, and aiding and abetting in retaliation for a May 18 trial in Manhattan.
  • A court jury questionnaire lists high-profile names who could be mentioned or testify, including Taylor Swift, Ryan Reynolds, Jenny Slate, Hasan Minhaj, and author Colleen Hoover.
  • Baldoni has denied Lively’s accusations.
