Justin Baldoni Spoke About His ‘Unhealthy’ Porn Addiction In Old Interview

“It Ends with Us” star Blake Lively recently accused Baldoni, the film’s director, of making “sexual comments” to her on set.

A years-old interview with Justin Baldoni is gaining traction online in the wake of Blake Lively’s sexual harassment complaint against him.

In the complaint, reportedly filed on Friday, Lively accused Baldoni — who directed and co-starred in her 2024 film “It Ends with Us” — of creating a toxic work environment due to his “sexual comments” throughout production, which allegedly included descriptions of his genitalia and remarks about his “pornography addiction” and Lively’s weight.

Days after the complaint was filed, a 2021 episode of Sarah Grynberg’s podcast “A Life of Greatness,” in which Baldoni got candid about his addiction to porn, began to draw renewed attention.

In the episode, Grynberg said she brought up the subject because Baldoni was so “open” in his 2021 book, “Man Enough: Undefining My Masculinity,” about how he used porn to cope with difficult feelings.

“I was introduced to porn when I was 10 years old. Long before I ever, you know, could have an erection or even knew how I felt about anything,” Baldoni said about 43 minutes into the episode. “And it became — you know, like any young boy who sees boobs for the first time — it’s exciting because our culture has shielded them from us, because they’re sexualized.”
