Justin Baldoni Took a Drastic Step During Blake Lively's Deposition, According to Sources
Sources say Justin Baldoni wanted to be in the same room as Blake Lively during her deposition
Things became messier after Justin Baldoni attended the deposition of Blake Lively this week. Sources claimed that his presence was not legally essential, but he demanded to be in the same room with her during her deposition. An insider told Rob Shuter's #ShuterScoop, 'But Justin insisted. He said, 'If she's going to accuse me, she's going to have to say it to my face.''
The outlet mentioned that Lively's deposition lasted for several hours. Aside from the two actors, it was attended by legal teams of both parties, a videographer, and a tour reporter. Along with the testimonials, all eyes appeared to be on the 'It Ends With Us' co-stars. Their dynamic looked 'toxic.'
A source noted that the 37-year-old actor didn't even 'flinch' with Baldoni's sudden attendance. For those unversed, she had accused the 41-year-old filmmaker-actor of sexual harassment on the sets of their 2024 movie. He denied the allegations and filed a $400 million countersuit. The counterclaims were against Lively, Ryan Reynolds, and their publicist, Leslie Sloane, for defamation and civil extortion. However, Judge Lewis J. Liman later dismissed it.
Now, the 'Jane the Virgin' star has seemingly sought the help of the public and their opinion. A legal insider told Shuter that Baldoni 'wants this on the record.' Therefore, he made the surprise move of attending Lively's deposition. 'He's done hiding behind lawyers. If Blake is going to continue this, she has to do it with him watching,' the source claimed.

White Sox celebrate showman Bill Veeck with wedding, 50-foot hot dog, petting zoo at ballgame
CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago White Sox threw a party that would have made Bill Veeck proud. The club celebrated its quirky former owner with Bill Veeck Night on Saturday by bringing back some of the stunts, tricks and exhibitions that added to the lore of the legendary showman and Hall of Famer. There was a pregame petting zoo and a roving circus with — what else? — a clown to entertain fans entering Rate Field. There was ice sculpting on the concourse in the outfield and a chance to get a photo taken with a 50-foot hot dog, along with an offer of free haircuts. The first 15,000 fans received a Veeck bobblehead, and postgame fireworks were planned. Another highlight was what the team described as a 'married in a minute' event, with two White Sox fans tying the knot in a 60-second ceremony officiated by 1983 American League Rookie of the Year Ron Kittle. Veeck's son, Mike, threw out the ceremonial first pitch before the White Sox took on the Cleveland Guardians. The fun wasn't limited to fans in the stands. White Sox players turned back the clock by wearing pinstriped shorts during pregame warmups and batting practice. The team wore those unusual shorts — along with collared uniform tops — for some games during the 1976 season. Veeck was a two-time owner of the White Sox, first from 1959-61 and again from 1975-81. His tenure was marked by memorable and forgettable stunts to enhance the fans' game-day experience through entertainment. His stunts included an exploding scoreboard in 1960 and a disastrous disco demolition night in 1979, when a crate of disco records was blown up between games of a doubleheader. The playing surface at Comiskey Field was so damaged by the blast and fans who rushed the field after the stunt that Chicago was forced to forfeit the second game to Detroit. Another of his famous acts was signing 3-foot-7 Eddie Gaedel to be a pinch hitter in 1951, when Veeck owned the St. Louis Browns. Gaedel, who had a miniscule strike zone, walked on four pitches. Veeck died in 1986 at 71 and was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1991. ___ AP MLB:
