Taylor Swift's silence on Lively, Baldoni case 'speaks volumes' with star facing possible testimony: expert
Fox News
Taylor Swift could testify in Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni's upcoming trial in 2026, putting the celebrity friends in an odd position.
While the pop star has "publicly distanced" herself from the legal back-and-forth, she could be called to testify after being dragged into the situation by Baldoni's lawsuit. Baldoni's lawsuit followed Lively's own, in which she accused the actor of sexual harassment while filming "It Ends with Us." However, Baldoni insisted Lively "falsely" accused him in an attempt to repair her reputation following the fallout around the movie's press tour after she took control of the film. "People stay strategically quiet for many reasons, and sure, some stars just want to avoid the press – I respect that. But for someone as media-savvy as Taylor Swift to stay out of this? That speaks volumes. And frankly, we all want to hear her side."
"Taylor has publicly distanced herself from this – and I get why. She likely hopes to stay out of the mess entirely," PR expert Adrienne Uthe explained to Fox News Digital. "But that’s not reality. Like it or not, people want to hear her testimony. She’s staying silent because nothing good comes from getting involved – and honestly, who would want to if they were in her position? But her silence also says a lot."
