“Blake Lively didn’t support another woman”: Kjersti Flaa Calls Out Blake Lively for Relationship With Woody Allen After Justin Baldoni Lawsuit

There’s always a hidden agenda, an unseen twist, and a voice waiting to speak out. Kjersti Flaa, the journalist, has had enough of the ‘blind support’ that seems to overshadow critical thinking. Her recent latest comments hit the entertainment world like a lightning bolt, as she accuses Blake Lively of hypocrisy, particularly in her dealings with the controversial filmmaker Woody Allen.

Flaa’s outburst comes after a series of lawsuits have embroiled Hollywood heavyweights like Justin Baldoni, who recently filed a lawsuit against The New York Times and allegedly hinted at future legal actions targeting Lively herself.

But it’s the accusations about Lively’s ties to Allen that are sparking the most heated conversations. Speaking out in a video, Flaa expressed her disbelief at how people blindly support women—without truly looking at the bigger picture. She is particularly furious about Lively’s association with Woody Allen, whose accusations of abuse against his stepdaughter, Dylan Farrow, have been widely publicized.

Kjersti Flaa, who’s no stranger to Hollywood’s intricate dance of personalities, has publicly called out Blake Lively over her involvement with Woody Allen, whose past is far from clean. The former has raised some tough questions about the reality of supporting women in Hollywood—especially when it comes to those whose actions seem to contradict that very support.

Flaa begins by discussing the ongoing legal battle between Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively. She notes that while Baldoni has recently filed a lawsuit against The New York Times, he has not yet sued Lively, but she predicts this will change soon.

The stakes have already been raised, with Lively filing an official lawsuit against Baldoni in federal court—an action that escalates beyond the simple complaint she filed “just before Christmas”.

Flaa then delves into Lively’s connection to Allen. The actress, known for her role in the Gossip Girl series and her high-profile public persona, worked with Allen on a film Café Society despite the long-standing and highly publicized allegations against him. According to Flaa, Lively’s decision to collaborate with Allen raises significant questions:

She argues that Lively either didn’t believe Dylan Farrow’s claims or simply chose to ignore them in favor of her career. Flaa asserts, “Blake Lively didn’t support another woman who came forward”, pointing out that this doesn’t align with the values of solidarity and support for victims of abuse.

Woody Allen’s legacy in crisis amid s*xual abuse allegations and controversy?

Woody Allen’s career, once celebrated for its intellect and artistic brilliance, has been overshadowed by a series of controversies that have left the filmmaker’s reputation in tatters. 

In 1980, Allen began a relationship with actress Mia Farrow. However, the world was left stunned when Allen’s relationship with Soon-Yi Previn, Farrow’s adopted daughter, was revealed. Farrow discovered explicit photographs of Soon-Yi at Allen’s apartment. The affair quickly became a Hollywood scandal, and it was only the beginning of the chaos to come.

Eight months after the affair hit the headlines, a much darker chapter emerged. Dylan Farrow, another of Farrow’s adopted children, accused Allen of s*xually abusing her when she was just seven years old. In a harrowing interview in 2018, Dylan recalled the trauma, saying:

Allen has always denied the allegations, dismissing them as part of an alleged vendetta by Mia Farrow due to his relationship with Soon-Yi. Despite his denials, the damage was done. In an interview from 2018, he voiced his frustration over the accusations, stating, 

However, many within the film industry have distanced themselves from Allen in the wake of these allegations. His career has been undeniably impactful in shaping modern cinema, yet his personal life continues to cast a long shadow. His fans, too, have expressed mixed emotions, acknowledging his artistic contributions while grappling with the grave nature of the allegations against him.
