You will never believe what Blake Lively's famous co-star from The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants looks like now
A child star who appeared in coming-of-age drama The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants stunned viewers as she appeared on Today Extra Friday morning. American actress Jenna Boyd, 32, who starred alongside Blake Lively and America Ferrera in the iconic 2005 film, appeared on the Channel Nine morning show to reflect on the movie's enduring legacy. Jenna, who was just 12 when she portrayed the sweet and spirited Bailey in the film, looked almost unrecognisable from the pre-teen character she once played. Gone are the blonde tresses she had in the movie and she now rocks long glossy brunette locks. Her facial features are now more defined, but she still has the same trademark cheeky grin she sported in the movie. 'I know I was not one of the four [main characters], but you could have fooled me because they made me feel as though I was,' Jenna began. 'They made me feel as though I was one of them, it was such a sweet time.' Jenna was nominated for a Breakout Performance Teen Choice Award in 2005 for her work on the movie. She has gone onto star in many renowned productions, including the TV series Atypical, opposite Jennifer Jason Leigh, and the 2022 movie Good Mourning alongside Avril Lavigne. It comes after three stars of the movie - America Ferrera, Amber Tamblyn and Alexis Bledel — spoke out after lead actress Blake Lively filed a lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. As Lively, 37, sues her It Ends With Us costar and director, 40, for sexual harassment among additional allegations, her ex-castmates opened up about their firsthand experience with her. The movie follows four best friends that buy a mysterious pair of pants that fits each of them perfectly despite them all being different sizes. In a joint Instagram post, Tamblyn and Ferrera released a statement signed by all three of them, including Bledel, who is not active on Instagram. 'In support of our sister, Blake,' they wrote in the caption and signed off with a red heart emoji and their first names.

Pictured 'As Blake's friends and sisters for over twenty years, we stand with her in solidarity as she fights back against the reported campaign waged to destroy her reputation,' the trio's statement read. 'Throughout the filming of It Ends With Us, we saw her summon the courage to ask for a safe workplace for herself and colleagues on set,' they stated. 'And we are appalled to read the evidence of a premeditated and vindictive effort that ensued to discredit her voice,' they continued. The three actresses also condemned Baldoni's alleged attempt to 'bury' Lively — as he and his team reportedly stated in a private message that was made public in the court documents. 'Most upsetting is the unabashed exploitation of domestic violence survivors' stories to silence a woman who asked for safety,' Lively's Sisterhood costars wrote. 'The hypocrisy is astounding.'
