Blake Lively rep claims Justin Baldoni litigation is a 'smoke and mirrors exercise,' seeks dismissal from suit
Fox News
Blake Lively's press representative, Leslie Sloane, filed documents to dismiss the claims Justin Baldoni made against her in a $400 defamation lawsuit.
Baldoni included Sloane and Vision PR, Inc. in his $400 million defamation lawsuit filed in January, weeks after Lively, 37, filed a federal suit against her "It Ends With Us" co-star where she accused him of sexual harassment on the set of the film. "Baldoni’s allegations about the creative issues are irrelevant and tellingly sexist." Tracy Wright is an entertainment reporter for Fox News Digital. Send story tips to Tracy.Wright@fox.com.
"Because the Amended Complaint’s scattershot allegations fail to adequately plead claims for civil extortion, defamation, and false light, Ms. Sloane and Vision PR, Inc. respectfully request that the Court dismiss the Amended Complaint with prejudice and award attorneys’ fees and costs under New York’s anti-SLAPP law," Sloane's motion stated.
