We’re listening to the Each day Roundup right here as a part of the Actuality C Podcast. I’m your host, Actuality Steve. Thanks all for tuning in. A superb Monday present for you. We’re going to talk about extra within the Blake Full of life, Justin Baldoni backwards and forwards that’s taking place. Her criticism, apparently his legal professionals are on the point of fireplace again a countersuit in opposition to her.
Blake’s publicist speaks out. So much occurring. Sheena Shea speaks out for the primary time on James Kennedy. Squid sport two premiered on Friday. I watched the entire thing. Provide you with my ideas with out giving freely any main spoilers. And I would get to a narrative on individuals. com the place as soon as once more, they simply went to Reddit, discovered one thing on there and put a entrance web page story about it but.
I don’t know if it’s even true or not, and I would get to 1 electronic mail reader electronic mail from you guys. We’ll get to all that momentarily. So, this week, I’m going to do Thursday’s weekly podcast, which is, effectively, Thursday’s January 2nd. Why did I believe it was the primary? Anyway I recorded one thing with Dave Neal already.
I used to be on Dave’s podcast. That’s going to air later this week, however I’m going to run it as my podcast as effectively for Thursday, simply because as soon as once more, actually robust week to get anyone to return on. And Dave’s at all times prepared to return on, however I did his and I used to be similar to, effectively, I’m not going to name you proper again and document one thing for me.
Good dialog. Spent about 10 or quarter-hour speaking about my courting life or lack thereof. And type of among the causes behind it and some great things. Discuss rather a lot in regards to the get together. So simply numerous great things in there. That’s approaching, on Thursday. That’s already carried out. So simply needed to offer you a heads up there.
All proper. Let’s speak a bit bit extra about Blake Full of life, Justin Baldoni, as a result of Justin Baldoni’s legal professionals got here out and mentioned, simply wait until we file this countersuit, we’re going to blow away Blake Full of life and no, no, no. They’re those which are placing out. A smear marketing campaign in opposition to our shopper. It’s similar to, I knew this was coming.
I knew that’s precisely what his staff was going to say. No, no, no, no. She’s doing the PR stuff. So Blake’s publicist will get out in entrance of that story earlier than we even see what Justin Baldoni’s legal professionals are going to say in retaliation to Blake Full of life’s criticism, Blake Full of life’s publicist, Leslie Sloan is denying the report saying that she planted false tales within the press about what went on behind the scenes with Justin Baldoni on the, it ends with us set.
Apparently he’s going to counter Sue and after the vacations and Blake Full of life’s publicist, Leslie Sloan is denying that she tried to tarnish. Justin Baldoni’s popularity by leaking tales to the media retailers, which is strictly what Blake had in her criticism, that that’s what he did. She mentioned, I used to be contacted on August eleventh by Sarah Nathan, Melissa Nathan’s sister, forwarding an nameless tip that web page six acquired concerning allegations of HR complaints on the set of.
After that, I used to be contacted by varied press retailers about asking about allegations of HR complaints. When contacted, I responded Wayfarer or Sony for data concerning HR complaints. It’s clear that Mr. Baldoni and his Wayfarer associates are suggesting that I originated the press tales about HR complaints on set, which is fake.
Please learn Ms. Full of life’s criticism and the criticism filed by Jones works LLC and Stephanie Jones, which gives the main points of the marketing campaign in opposition to my shopper. So I suppose we type of want to attend till Justin Baldoni’s lawyer information this countersuit in opposition to Blake to see if he has proof of this, or it’s simply hypothesis.
Trigger not less than when throughout in Blake’s criticism, she confirmed us emails and textual content messages. Now, when you have a look at what Leslie Sloan mentioned on this assertion. You may wish to try the criticism filed by JonesWorks LLC. There was extra that got here out on JonesWorks LLC. JonesWorks is a PR agency in Los Angeles.
And one of many those that labored at JonesWorks was Jennifer Abel. Jennifer Abel dealt with Justin Baldoni. At Jones works. Nicely, Jennifer Abel didn’t get together with, I believe her identify is Stephanie Jones, the founding father of Jones works PR and Jennifer Abel labored for her, however didn’t get alongside together with her. So Stephanie fired her.
And mentioned, Oh, by the way in which, you recognize, your, your final day goes to be right here is your final day. And one week earlier than Jennifer Abel, the one who ended up being in all these textual content messages and emails speaking in regards to the smear marketing campaign in opposition to Blake one week earlier than she left Jones works PR, a success piece got here out on the enterprise insider about Stephanie Jones.
And it was mainly traced to the truth that this Jennifer Abel lady was leaving. And now we type of know precisely, as a result of bear in mind the primary query when this all got here out was, How on the earth did Blake’s individuals and Blake’s legal professionals come up with all these Justin Baldoni’s textual content messages and emails?
Nicely, it’s clear that it got here from Jones Works. They needed to subpoena it, however Jennifer Abel, the one who left Jones works to go begin her personal and mainly threw her previous boss below the bus. Nicely, that previous boss had receipts. So we type of know the way it’s taking place. Look, that is going to go on. This isn’t a narrative that’s going away anytime quickly.
We’ve talked about this. The following factor we’re going to get is allegedly this countersuit and Justin Baldoni goes to counter Sue Blake Full of life and saying, no, no, no, she had a random smear marketing campaign in opposition to me. And, however Blake’s publicist has already gotten out in entrance of him and mentioned, no, he didn’t. We completely didn’t try this.
So once more, I’ve at all times mentioned the smear marketing campaign stuff goes to be numerous he mentioned, she mentioned, granted Blake supplied receipts, however now they’re saying there’s no context to it and there’s extra to it. Nicely, we have now to attend till he countersues. However the one factor that isn’t disputable right here, seemingly. Is the stuff that she complained about on set in the course of the strike.
She mentioned, look, I’m not going again on set till these parameters are put in place. These protections are put in place for Justin and the CEO, whose identify is forgetting me proper now of Wayfarer till they modified their habits on set. These protections should be put in. Now, I don’t know if that meant she was going to stop or by no means be part of the film once more.
Justin agreed to it. If he mentioned none of this ever occurred, then we’re like 30 issues that she requested about habits on set. If Justin by no means did something, any of these issues beforehand, why would he agree to do this? Why would he comply with that stipulation? Appears bizarre to me. Minus the entire PR smearing backwards and forwards that they’re each claiming.
Which could be robust. I believe that you just’re going to lose lots of people as a result of staff Justin’s going to say, no, no, no. See, Blake did it to him and staff Blake goes to say, no, no, no. He did it to her till we see what simply inside has, if they’ve any proof or they’re simply claiming that they assume they know that Blake’s PR staff tried to smear Justin pondering going to lose lots of people there, however you’re, what you’re not going to lose lots of people with is the way in which she was handled on set in what she’s claiming.
So I believe. Like I mentioned, this, this story is way from over a lot extra stuff goes to get out, however I additionally do assume it’s massive that Atlas Corrigan, Brandon’s cleaner, her co star got here out in her protection. Jenny Slate got here out in her protection. And outdoors of Wayfarer, no one from the film has come out in Justin Baldoni’s protection.
And he was the director of the film and owns the rights to the books. Colleen Hoover hasn’t come out and supported Justin Baldoni. So he’s Oh, for 3 individuals in that film that had been massive names, both the author of the, you recognize, the one that wrote the e-book and two main co stars haven’t come out and supported him.
So seemingly they know what to do. Went on on set and that’s going to be actually robust for him. Sheena Shea spoke out for the primary time since James Kennedy’s arrest and. She mentioned I did as she mentioned this on her podcast on Friday She mentioned I used to be respecting Allie’s privateness as she requested so I wasn’t gonna say something on the podcast However I now see how that’s coming off by staying silent.
So I’ve spoken to Allie. I examine in together with her usually I at all times have however I do know it looks as if if I keep silent you all someway assume I assist his habits, which I completely do Not she mentioned she knew about Kennedy She, she took the knowledge that was on the market and he or she knew about Kennedy from additionally his previous relationships.
She mentioned, quote, clearly I used to be very shut with Raquel for years. And whereas she at all times advised me that James was by no means, by no means bodily abusive, as everyone knows, abuse isn’t restricted to only bodily and in the end it led to her. Exiting that relationship. I had numerous empathy for her. I needed to do something I might to assist and provides her a secure house.
After which she says, look, I hope James views this as a all-time low second and is severe about simply committing to a therapeutic plan versus simply seeing this as one thing that’s going to love break the world tour or residency or no matter. I’ve observed his identify has been taken off sure reveals and that could be a direct consequence to his actions.
And that is type of what I mentioned to start with of all this. As soon as it got here out, it was like, look, He can apologize all he desires, despite the fact that he didn’t even apologize. Trigger I suppose apologizing is an admittance of guilt that you just did one thing, however he mentioned he was going to try to make himself higher, must be higher engaged on his sobriety, stuff like that.
And once more, these are simply phrases. If he doesn’t work on it and habits continues, then it doesn’t matter. And those that have adopted James rather a lot longer than I’ve mentioned, this isn’t the primary time he’s needed to come out and say one thing and speak about his habits. And say, he’s going to get higher. So yeah, he’s misplaced numerous credibility with a few of his viewers and no one goes to consider it.
It’s, this is sort of a time will inform factor. This doesn’t simply occur in a single day. Is that this man’s sobriety going away? Is, did he relapse, however he has to vary his habits and he must be pondering of it as, Oh crap. Now I don’t have any work. I don’t have Vanderpump guidelines. Fountain blue canceled me and I’m not a DJ there anymore.
Does he solely get native gigs? Is everyone that has employed him for a future gig? Have all of them canceled on him? I don’t know but. It looks as if the Vegas residency is completed, however being a DJ like him, I’d assume he’s received some new yr’s gig lined up, proper? Did he get kicked out of that? Has he been canceled from that?
I don’t know, however yeah, he ought to positively have a look at it as extra of man. I have to get my shit collectively versus, Oh crap. The place am I going to get my subsequent paycheck from? And the place’s my subsequent DJ gig?
