Blake Lively And Ryan Reynolds Share A Sweet Kiss At The TIME100 Celebration
Last Updated:
At the TIME100 Gala, before Blake Lively gave a powerful speech, Ryan Reynolds was seen giving her a motivational talk and even shared a sweet kiss.
Blake Lively is currently involved in a legal dispute with her It Ends With Us co-star and director, Justin Baldoni, over several issues. Despite this, Blake's impact in the entertainment industry was recognised when she was named in the Time 100 Most Influential People of 2025 list in the Titans category.
She was honoured with the award at the prestigious TIME100 Gala at the Lincoln Center in New York recently. At the event, before Blake went on stage to deliver a powerful speech, the Deadpool star was seen giving her a motivational talk. Ryan's support didn't stop there, as he was also captured sharing a sweet kiss with Blake before stepping away.
A witness at the event captured a video of Ryan talking to Blake just before she went on stage for her speech. Later, a lip-reading expert, Nicola Hickling, founder of LipReader.co.uk, told Daily Mail that Ryan said, 'I should be there, I need to shine right now. You need to understand what I am saying to you right now."
After their short talk, Blake Lively was seen asking for another kiss from Ryan Reynolds. The actor smiled, stood up and gave her a quick kiss. Right after that, Blake headed to the stage to deliver her speech.

During the TIME100 Gala, Blake Lively mentioned her ongoing legal battle and shared a very personal story, when her mother was assaulted by someone she knew at her job.
She said, 'It's an interesting thing to be called influential. It's most definitely an honour, but what does influence mean? By definition, it's the capacity to have an effect on the character, development, or behaviour of someone or something.
'That's not only an honour, it's a significant responsibility. How we use that, is what matters. Who and what we stand up for and what we stay silent about, what we monetise versus what we actually live matters. I have so much to say about the last two years of my life, but tonight is not the forum," she added.
'My mom never got justice from her work acquaintance who attempted to take her life when she was the mother of 3 young kids, years before I was born. Never underestimate a woman's ability to endure pain. Life's just a bowl of cherries. Thank you to every woman whose strength brought life to me and my four children, and thank you to every man—including my sweet husband—who are kind and good when no one is watching," Blake Lively Added.
In December 2024, Blake accused Justin Baldoni of sexual harassment and trying to damage her reputation. She also named his production company, Wayfarer Studios, in the case. Baldoni, on the other hand, denied all the claims and responded by filing a lawsuit against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds and their team.

Chinese passenger has meltdown over overweight luggage at Italy airport, video goes viral
The Chinese tourist rolled on the floor and wailed, leaving bystanders stunned and sparking mixed reactions across social media platforms. A Chinese tourist had a dramatic emotional breakdown at Milan Malpensa Airport in Italy after her carry-on luggage was found to be overweight – the video of the incident that has gone viral since then has sparked both shock and amusement among social media users. The incident took place at the boarding counter on June 8, according to Viral Press. Airport staff checked the passenger's carry-on suitcase and informed her that it exceeded the allowed weight limit. She was asked to either pay an additional fee or remove some items from her bag. The request triggered a surprising reaction. In a viral video, the woman can be seen collapsing to the floor, wailing, and flailing her arms and legs in a full-blown tantrum reminiscent of a toddler. She rolled on the ground, hitting the floor with her hands and feet as stunned bystanders looked on. Airport authorities attempted to console the visibly distressed traveller, but she remained inconsolable. Ultimately, she was put on a different flight after she calmed down. The video, initially shared by Viral Press, was later reposted by the Daily Mail on Instagram (@dailymail). A post shared by Daily Mail (@dailymail) The video attracted thousands of reactions online, ranging from amused to empathetic. One Instagram user jokingly commented: 'Ah, I just witnessed that this morning with my 4-year-old when I asked her to put on her shoes to get out the door for playschool.' Another added, 'I really didn't need to see this from her, but I guess it's a good one if you're under 3.' However, not all responses mocked the woman. One user offered a more considerate perspective, 'I was wondering if the underlying reason could be that there's a possibility she's autistic or has any disorder that could explain her tantrum or whatever. Not justifying her behavior, but maybe there's much more context we had to understand. Anyway, there could also be a possibility that she's just spoiled too, but no one knows nonetheless.'
