Blake Lively sued again for defamation over "It Ends With Us" dispute
CBSN
Blake Lively faces a second defamation lawsuit after the actor alleged she was sexually harassed while making the movie "It Ends With Us" and subsequently targeted by a coordinated smear campaign.
Jed Wallace, the owner of crisis public relations firm Street Relations, filed the complaint against Lively Tuesday in federal district court in Texas. It claimed Wallace suffered "millions of dollars in reputational harm" as a result of Lively's widely-reported legal battle with Justin Baldoni, who directed and starred opposite her in the film. Wallace is seeking at least $6 million in damages.
Lively named both Wallace and Street Relations in an initial civil rights complaint that she filed in California before ultimately suing Baldoni and his production company Wayfarer Studios in New York federal court at the end of last year.
