yes, Perez Hilton is involved in this legal case now
Lively sent out subpoenas to several online content creators to find out if they were working with Justin Baldoni to smear her
Hilton is not cooperating, claiming journalist privilege
Lively’s lawyers:
“Since August 2024, Mr. Hilton has created more than 500 pieces of video content about Ms. Lively, almost entirely disparaging, and about the same number of posts of sensational headlines.
Hilton’s videos are punctuated by name-calling, Ms. Lively, coining mocking terms for her, including ”Blackface Blake,” “Lying Lively,” “Ku Klux Khaleesi,” and “Litigious Lively.”
Hilton:
“I am a journalist, content creator, and media commentator doing my job and exercising my legally protected rights.”

“I was not part of any smear campaign against her. I was not working on behalf of anyone. I was not paid by anyone.”
