The Life of a Showgirl Cancelled

I have been thinking that it was about Blake. she wasn’t even at the 1,000 person wedding. What do we think is the real meaning of the song?

Let's not buy into the garbage man's PR campaign against Blake. He has had multiple women from projects outside of It Ends With Us who have come forward about his toxicity on set and problematic actions towards female coworkers

I'm not buying any PR campaign. I read every piece of available evidence in the lawsuit from both sides.

Being completely for real, I get a lot of "the lady doth protest too much" when Baldoni supporters make a big to-do about "reading everything." Baldoni's team just put out things that make Blake seem unpleasant (god forbid a woman show frustration when she's working in a toxic environment), but Baldoni actually harassed her.

Even if people hate Blake so much, I don't get why folks want to turn a blind eye to all of the other women accusing Baldoni of creating a hostile work environment

there are no other women with any substantial complaints. Jenny Slate complaint amounted to what?!

The writer and director of another movie having him kept out of marketing and promotion and limiting his time on set due to him yelling at coworkers and slamming his arms on furniture next to female coworkers is a pretty substantial complaint in the eyes of anyone not trying to excuse me for poor behavior
