Blake Lively accused of being ‘rude’ to a reporter AGAIN as another ‘hard to watch’ 2017 interview resurfaces
As a seasoned journalist with decades of experience under my belt, I’ve interviewed countless celebrities, and I can confidently say that the encounter between Blake Lively and Kjersti was one for the books. It’s not every day you witness such an intriguing dance of wit and awkwardness unfold in front of your very eyes.
As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but express my concern and disappointment as Blake Lively once again finds herself at the center of controversy due to allegations about her “mean girl” demeanor. A fresh interview, which some find hard to stomach, has surfaced online, adding fuel to this ongoing discourse.
As a lifestyle enthusiast, I’ve noticed a buzzing topic circulating on TikTok lately – clips from an October 2017 interview of Lively with DP/30 where she appears to respond passionately to some questions posed by the reporter have caught my attention.
During that period, she was marketing her movie All I See Is You – a part that represented a noticeable departure from her reputation built on Gossip Girl.
In that interaction, it appeared as though the atmosphere grew somewhat strained when the interviewer posed the question about the kinds of roles Lively might aim for over the next five years.
‘Do you feel free to try everything?’ the reporter asked.
Lively looked taken aback by the question and, after appearing to roll her eyes, replied: ‘What does that mean?’
In a somewhat hesitant manner, I humbly inquired whether you’d consider venturing beyond your familiar territory and attempting something fresh for the camera, dear interviewee.
‘I mean, apparently, you’re not gonna sing if you [don’t] think you could sing,’ he quipped.
Lively quickly reminded the reporter that she ‘does sing’ in All I See Is You.
With a look of disappointment, she playfully questioned the reporter if he had watched the movie prior to agreeing to conduct an interview with her.
‘I did see the movie,’ he insisted.
With a lively expression, she glanced towards an unseen individual and grinned, saying to the reporter, “We have a surprise for you at the end of our conversation – it’s like a spur-of-the-moment test.”
‘There can be a pop quiz of every minute of it,’ he replied with a nervous laugh.
During that extended chat, I found myself captivated by Lively’s reserved demeanor. With her arms folded tightly across her chest, she opened up about her introverted nature, sharing insights about herself as a ‘shy individual.’
She asserted that she spent her childhood living among movie sets, and the acting lessons she attended throughout her life played a significant role in helping her overcome shyness.
In her acting classes, Lively often discussed the skill of improvisation, which she continues to apply in her everyday life.
To illustrate, she playfully referred to their casual conversations at home with Ryan Reynolds as “spontaneous dialogue.”
Seven years past, numerous fans in the comment section of the initial DP/30 video suggested that Lively appeared to be in a less than favorable mood and defensive during her interview with the journalist on that particular day.
Meanwhile, others saw Lively’s answers as ‘honest’ and ‘down to earth.’
Hey there, fellow enthusiasts! I’ve been following this beloved show for years, and I just can’t get enough of it. This week, my heart skipped a beat when @c**tychanel resurrected an old interview on TikTok. As someone who’s spent countless hours dissecting every scene, I couldn’t help but share those ‘rude’ clips with my followers. It was like taking a trip down memory lane and revisiting the best moments of my life – or at least, the most memorable ones from this iconic series!
Critics of Lively, the actress from Gossip Girl, have claimed that she is easily offended or upset when asked a question.
Some felt that the criticism of Lively’s behavior was ‘hateful’ and ‘forced.’
‘Reaching! This hatred is so forced,’ one person wrote.
Another stated that Lively did not appear rude during her exchange with the reporter.
In a recent development, a highly-shared video excerpt from a recent interview with actress Lively follows the confession made by journalist Kjersti Flaa, who almost resigned from her position due to a challenging encounter with the actress during an interview in 2016.
Two years after their initial encounter, Lively and Flaa found themselves in an awkward situation again, as a previously hidden video has come to light.
During their interview, Anna Kendrick, her co-star from A Simple Favor, was also present, a fact that had sparked rumors of a disagreement between them at that particular point in time.
Initially, the launch of their 2018 thriller was met with some turbulence. Lively began the conversation by playfully cautioning Flaa that they had just entered a full-blown counseling session instead.
“Lively playfully joked, ‘We’ve changed the subject,’ after Kendrick nervously suggested they switch topics just as the cameras started recording.”
After Kendrick apologizes for something, Lively starts to chuckle, and to lighten the mood, she grabs a pastry.
‘We’re gonna eat some chocolate croissants,’ the mother-of-four said as Flaa laughed.
In the beginning of the interview, Flaa points out the striking contrast between their characters in A Simple Favor. She expresses that Emily Blunt’s character appears incredibly self-assured, as if she’s ‘the most confident woman on the planet’, while Anna Kendrick’s role is portrayed as ‘extremely insecure’.
In reality, the situation is actually reversed, Kendrick playfully said. “More often than not, I find myself calling Blake and telling him, ‘Don’t worry, you do well in interviews. People genuinely like you and admire you,'” he explained.
Kendrick then quipped her pep talks were the ‘reason’ Lively got out of bed in the morning.
‘Anna is just an egomaniac, as you can see,’ Lively said with a deadpan voice.
Trying another approach to elicit an honest response, Flaa inquired whether they are capable of offering themselves genuine praise.
This caused Lively to perk up a bit as she said it felt ‘good’ when Kendrick praises her.
The mother-of-four proceeded to admit that she does struggle with confidence and previously judged her own mother for being ‘so confident.’
‘Which I think is not fair,’ she reflected.
Towards the close of the interview, Lively casually reflected that they attracted attendees for this press event by offering them alcohol and cupcakes as incentives.
As I was leaving, I was overjoyed to hear, “There are plenty of complimentary items for you to grab!” And guess what, my dear friend Flaa? You can even take a few pieces of furniture from our hotel room and have Lionsgate foot the bill! What an unbelievable perk, right?
As she attempted to ask one last question, Flaa realizes they are ‘out of time.’
Next, Kendrick gives a ‘Wah-wah’ sound as Lively reaches out to greet Flaa, avoiding eye contact.
After Flaa compliments Lively’s jewelry, the performer compliments hers back.
Lively tells the reporter: ‘I was admiring yours right.’
Reflecting on my recent experiences, I find myself reminiscing about a past encounter with the captivating star of “It Ends With Us,” Blake Lively. Earlier this week, I shared a video of that awkward interaction on YouTube, titling it ‘The Blake Lively Interview That Nearly Made Me Quit My Job.’
The video begins with Kjersti congratulating Lively on her pregnancy.
Lively seemed completely unamused with the comment, and replied with a sarcastic quip.
To start off, I must say congratulations on your small baby bump, Kjersti! This excitement comes from you being the founder of Content Now TV.
‘Congrats on your little bump,’ Blake fired back, as the interviewer giggled nervously.
‘What about my bump?’ Parker joined in, standing up to show her butt to the camera.
Kjersti seemed taken aback by Blake’s reply, and subsequently found herself sitting uneasily as the two women shared laughter over their shared ‘hiccups’.
And things only got worse when Kjersti asked the women her first question.
In the 1930s setting of the film, Kjersti pondered if the actors wore vintage fashion on screen.
However, Blake expressed disapproval of the question, and just as Parker was about to respond, she interrupted, expressing her thought that people seem more interested in discussing the attire, yet one might wonder if they’d inquire similarly about men’s clothing.
‘I would,’ Kjersti promised.
Instead, the women engaged in conversation among themselves, commenting on their preferred male costumes from the film.
The awkward interview persisted for several more minutes until, with a sense of defeat, Kjersti brought it to an end.
In a post, she shared that having a chat with Blake Lively and her fellow actor Parker Posey during Cafe Society was the most awkward interview experience I’ve had to date.
1. Is it inappropriate to express congratulations for someone’s pregnancy, or to inquire about the costumes a female actor is wearing in a movie? (This version maintains the original structure and word choices but rephrases some elements for clarity.)
Following the rapidly spreading interview causing a stir online, it ignited intense criticism towards Lively, as her reported disagreement with Justin Baldoni had dominated news headlines for the previous seven days.
Following the rapid spread of the 2016 interview online, a source shared with People that the heated interaction between the reporter and Lively was initiated by an impolite comment made by the reporter.
The insider noted: ‘It’s truly such a rude statement. She is pregnant with a child. If you feel the need to acknowledge that she’s pregnant, at least do it respectfully.’
At the time, Lively was pregnant with her second child, Inez, now seven.
Apart from them, they too have children: nine-year-old James, four-year-old Betty, and their infant son named Olin.
