Taylor Swift super fan Nikki Glaser gets real about why she's not following Blake Lively-Justin Baldoni drama

Fox News07-02-2025
NEW ORLEANS — Nikki Glaser is staying neutral when it comes to the legal drama between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni.
During an interview with Fox News Digital, Glaser, who recently received rave reviews for hosting the Golden Globe Awards, shared that she hasn't been keeping up with the legal drama between the "It Ends With Us" co-stars.
"It's too much reading for me," Glaser explained. "Every time I go, 'Let me see what's going on,' I go, 'I don't … I should read an actual book. This is not good for my brain, I don't need this.' So, I don't really know anything, and I think that's the right place to be."
Lively initially filed a complaint against Baldoni and film producer Jamey Heath with the California Civil Rights department and later in federal court, detailing allegations of sexual harassment, retaliation, intentional affliction of emotional distress, negligence and more. Baldoni later filed a $400 million lawsuit, accusing Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, of civil extortion and defamation.
Baldoni then launched a website containing a copy of his amended complaint against Lively and Reynolds and a 168-page "timeline of relevant events" highlighting all emails and text messages between the parties he felt were relevant to the case.
"Every time I go, 'Let me see what's going on,' I go, 'I don't … I should read an actual book. This is not good for my brain, I don't need this.' So, I don't really know anything, and I think that's the right place to be."
Glaser, however, didn't shy away from commenting on other celebrity scandals when she hosted the Golden Globe Awards in January, making light of the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs during her opening monologue.

"That movie was more sexually charged than Diddy's credit card," Glaser said. "I know … I'm upset, too. The after-party isn't going to be as good."
The comedian also made an appearance at another award show, sharing a table with model Heidi Klum at the Grammys, and even took part in singer Benson Boone's performance. She was tasked with ripping off his shirt to reveal a skin-tight blue jumpsuit.
While on the red carpet at the music awards show, Glaser told E! News that while she's a Taylor Swift super fan, she would "not be bothering" Swift during the show and was just excited to see what she was wearing and watch her present an award.
Glaser has another opportunity to chat with the "Fortnights" singer while at the Super Bowl, but it doesn't seem like she'll go for it.
"I don't think so. This girl, she is so in demand, she doesn't need to meet me. I don't need to be added to her amount of things to do," Glaser explained to Fox News Digital. "I really respect her space and her privacy and her energy, and she's there to watch her boyfriend win the Super Bowl, you know.
"She doesn't need me being like, 'I don't know and "Reputation," it came out when I was in a really dark place, and you got me through so much.' Like, she would obviously be so kind to me about it, but she doesn't need that from me at the Super Bowl."

‘It Ends With Us' Actress Isabela Ferrer Claims Justin Baldoni Is Harassing Her Over Subpoena in Blake Lively Legal Battle

Isabela Ferrer got a big break when she was cast as Young Lily in 'It Ends With Us,' playing the younger version of Blake Lively's character. But a year after her film debut, Ferrer finds herself trapped in a bitter legal feud between Lively and the film's director, Justin Baldoni, both of whom have subpoenaed her. More from Variety Blake Lively's Lawyers Seek Sanctions Against Justin Baldoni's Attorney Over Pre-Trial 'Press Tour' Blake Lively Subpoenas Her Online Critics - Is It Fact-Finding or Intimidation? Blake Lively Suffers Blow in 'Smear Campaign' Claim as Judge Dismisses Case Against Justin Baldoni's Social Media Guru Jed Wallace On Sunday, Ferrer's lawyer alleged that Baldoni is 'harassing' her and trying to use his financial leverage over her to control how she responds to Lively's subpoena — when what she really wants is not to be dragged further into the dispute. Lively is suing Baldoni for sexual harassment and alleges that Baldoni launched a secret campaign to smear her reputation after she complained. Her lawsuit includes an allegation that Baldoni added a scene to the film in which Young Lily loses her virginity. After the scene was filmed, she alleges that Baldoni approached the young actors and said, 'I know I'm not supposed to say this, but that was hot.' In response, Baldoni's lawyers released text messages from Ferrer in which she called him a 'great director' and said he was 'wonderful to work with.' His lawyers have argued that as the feud developed with Lively during the subsequent promotion of the film, Ferrer felt compelled to shun him. Lively's lawyers subpoenaed Ferrer in February, seeking any communications between her and the other parties in the case. That required Ferrer to hire a lawyer and to seek a guarantee that Baldoni's team, as her employer, would cover her legal bills. That, in turn, led to a protracted dispute. Ferrer's lawyer, Sanford Michelman, claimed that Baldoni was seeking to condition the financial guarantee on retaining control over Ferrer's response to the subpoena, or at least control over her legal representation. According to Michelman, the producers' lawyer cited a fake case, which he believed to be an AI hallucination, in support of the argument that the producers had such leverage. Michelman also alleged that Baldoni's team had contorted the facts surrounding Ferrer's involvement in the dispute. While an agreement was being worked out, Baldoni's team asked if Michelman would accept service of a subpoena on her behalf. He refused. Baldoni's lawyers want Ferrer to produce documents and messages. According to them, a process server has tried to catch her at addresses in Brooklyn and Sag Harbor, but has been unable to track her down. Baldoni's lawyers are asking a judge to approve 'alternative service,' essentially forcing Michelman to accept service of the subpoena on Ferrer's behalf. Michelman is opposed, arguing they have failed to show that Ferrer is ducking the subpoena. Ferrer's legal team says Baldoni's motion, as well as the dispute over the Lively subpoena, exhibits a 'broader pattern of conduct by Baldoni to bully Ms. Ferrer.' 'While Ms. Ferrer will faithfully comply with her legal obligations under any subpoena, summons or court order, she obviously will not be intimidated or extorted by any party to otherwise participate in the proceedings,' Michelman wrote. As part of the new filing, Ferrer asks the court to 'deny the Motion in its entirety and impose appropriate sanctions against Baldoni.' Baldoni's team declined Variety's request for comment. The trial is scheduled for March. Best of Variety New Movies Out Now in Theaters: What to See This Week What's Coming to Disney+ in August 2025 What's Coming to Netflix in August 2025

How Kaylee Gonclaves' Brother Found Love After Sister's Murder

Originally appeared on E! Online Steven Goncalves is leaning on someone special. Nearly one month after Bryan Kohberger was sentenced to life in prison for the 2022 murder of Kaylee Goncalves and her three friends, her brother shared that he and Olivia Vitale—the reporter he met during the investigation—are now engaged. "I interviewed Steven's family," Olivia detailed to NewsNation's Banfield Aug. 18. "This was when Bryan was still not arrested yet." The independent journalist noted that Steve Goncalves—Steven and Kaylee's dad—and his wife Kristi Goncalves learned about her TikTok, which has amassed over 1.3 million followers, through their daughter and reached out to her through email. "Several days before she had passed, she had sent my page to Kristi and was talking about it," Olivia explained. "So they wanted to reach out and do a documentary with me." However, she didn't meet Steven until a year later while she was filming the demolition of the house on King Road, where Kaylee, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin had been murdered.

"But we didn't start dating until almost even a year after that. We were friends first, and then I invited him to—I was filming a documentary with NBC—and I wanted Steven to be a part of it, and it was on set where we bonded." It was this January, while filming the project, that the documentarian and Steven got to know each other. "We were skipping rocks," she recalled. "That was really when we first really met, and we just became best friends after that. And it's history." For Steven, his relationship has been the silver lining of their family's tragic few years. "There is a bright spot," he told host Brian Entin. "I did meet Olivia. I do have my partner for the rest of my life and I'll hold on to that." As for what their future looks like? While Olivia is still interested in sharing compelling stories to help other families, she and Steven have been interested in putting down roots. "Eventually, we would like to homestead, get some chickens, raise a family together," she explained. "I probably won't have as much time to be on the road and I'll be more working for home. But we'll do some stories together and help other families, 'cause that's what it really boils down—helping other people and giving them a voice."
