Blake Lively alludes to Justin Baldoni drama at Time100 Gala

Blake Lively subtly referenced her ongoing legal battle with Justin Baldoni at the Time100 Gala.
“I have so much to say about the last two years of my life, but tonight is not the forum,” the “It Ends With Us” actress — who was honored on the magazine’s “Most Influential People of 2025” list — began an impassioned speech at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City on Thursday.
She continued, “What I will speak to, separately, is the feeling of being a woman who has a voice today.”
Lively, 37, directed the audience’s attention to her mother, Willie Elain McAlpin, who also attended the lavish Hollywood event, describing her as an “eternal optimist.”
She then revealed her mom was a victim of “the worst crime someone can commit against a woman.”
The “Gossip Girl” alum said McAlpin, 77, concealed “her raw and undeserved shame” throughout her entire life, but she was asked to share her mom’s story because “if we name it, we change it.”
“My mom never got justice from her work acquaintance who attempted to take her life when she was the mother of three young kids years before I was born,” Lively further explained.
The “Age of Adeline” star did not go into specifics about what happened to McAlpin but credited another woman for sharing her own story of survival on the radio — which in turn saved her mom’s life.
“The woman painfully and graphically shared how she escaped,” Lively shared, “and because of hearing that woman speak about her experience instead of shutting down in fear and unfair shame, my mom is alive today. She was saved by a woman whose name she’ll never know.”
The “Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants” star — who is suing Baldoni for sexual harassment and claims he launched smear campaign against her — added, “Never underestimate a woman’s ability to endure pain.”

Lively also took a moment to thank “every man,” including her “sweet husband,” Ryan Reynolds — who was also present — for being “kind and good when no one is watching.”
She added, “And to all the communities across the gender, age, political, geographical and racial spectrum who fight every day just to be safe, I see you.”
Earlier in her speech, Lively praised her fellow Time100 honoree Gisèle Pelicot, a French woman was covertly drugged and raped by her husband, Dominique Pelicot, on numerous occasions.
Quoting the survivor, the “Another Simple Favor” star — dressed in a glamorous Zuhair Murad gown — said, “It’s not for us to have shame … it’s for them.”
Reps for Baldoni did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Lively’s statements.
Lively’s poignant speech comes as she is seeking justice from Baldoni, 41, whom she claims made inappropriate sexual remarks when they worked together on “It Ends With Us,” including referencing his past porn addiction, and made her and multiple other women on set uncomfortable.
The Wayfarer Studios co-founder has denied the allegations and is countersuing Lively, Reynolds and their publicist, Leslie Sloane, for defamation, extortion and other claims in a $400 million lawsuit.
Lively has slammed Baldoni’s lawsuit as being retaliation for her speaking out and asked a judge to throw out his case. The court has not yet made a decision on that request. A trial date was set for March 2026.

William Shatner to undergo surgery following terrifying horse accident

He’s about to go where many men have gone before – the operating room.
William Shatner revealed that he shattered his right shoulder after falling off one of his horses late last year and must undergo surgery to repair the debilitating injury.
The “Star Trek” alum, who turns 95 later this month, opened up about the scary incident during the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films’ 53rd annual Saturn Awards in Burbank, Calif., on Sunday.
The original James T. Kirk explained his hospital drama and how he was scheduled to undergo surgery on March 11 after he accepted the Hall of Fame award on behalf of the “Star Trek” franchise.
After asking for a chair to speak with select media, Shatner shared that he was feeling “old, tired and kind of hurt.”
“I ride the horses that can compete in equine skills, which is fast down and ends on a sliding stop,” he explained. “And the horse that I owned, I came off.”
Shatner continued, “And she had a habit of going too far, like six inches to the side. And I’m riding it. And I’m ready. And she goes [too fast and sent him flying].”
Although the “Boston Legal” alum utilized his experience as a stuntman to lessen the impact, he still got seriously injured during the incident.
“I’m not a young stuntman anymore. I started to roll, but hit the dirt with my shoulder. So I wrecked my shoulder.”
Shatner said he was scheduled to undergo a “new type of shoulder operation called a reverse something or other” on Wednesday.
“You put the ball in the socket and the socket in the thing, and you come out 10 hours later, and you’re pain-free,” he said in an attempt to describe the surgery. “So that’s what I am meandering towards.”
This wouldn’t be the first time the Hollywood legend has suffered a health scare in recent months.
Back in September, it was reported that Shatner suffered a mysterious medical emergency at his Los Angeles home.
Although the “Practice” star didn’t explain what happened, TMZ reported that it was an issue regarding his blood sugar.
“I over indulged. I thank you all for caring but I’m perfectly fine,” Shatner tweeted alongside a meme about his “greatly exaggerated … demise” at the time.
Meanwhile, Shatner received a standing ovation from the star-studded audience at the Saturn Awards Sunday.
In his speech, Shatner detailed how the original “Star Trek” series succeeded because “good or great science fiction is about human beings.”
The “T.J. Hooker” actor also explained why making non-human characters display key human traits appeals to audiences.
“You know what everyone tried to do, including myself, was to make the character human with all frailties and ambitions and fears,” he told the audience.
“At the same time, in a leadership role, you can’t show that, or if you show it, it has to be done in a particular way,” Shatner continued. “So that you’re a leader trying to lead people into battle or into danger, and you have to motivate people in some way.”
Meanwhile, Shatner also shared that he still hasn’t watched all of the original “Star Trek” episodes he appeared in.
“I haven’t seen all my 79 episodes. I just don’t have the time,” he said. “I’d like to see it, but I don’t have the time.”
Elsewhere during the Saturn Awards, “Avatar” creator James Cameron noted how genres like sci-fi, fantasy and horror are often overlooked by awards ceremonies – including the Oscars.
“They dismiss us, and yet consistently, over time, of the top 20 movies in history, or the top 20 films of the past 10 years, they are our films,” the “Titanic” filmmaker charged. “Sci-fi, fantasy, horror. We make the films that put people in the theaters and keep the theaters open.”
Cameron, 71, won this year’s Saturn Awards for best science fiction film, best film direction and best film screenwriting for “Avatar: Fire and Ash.”
Tom Cruise, who was also at the ceremony, won the Saturn Award for best actor in a film for “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.”
Cruise, 63, celebrated Shatner’s contribution to the sci-fi genre in his acceptance speech.

‘Lost’ star Matthew Fox reveals why he walked away from Hollywood at height of his stardom

Matthew Fox was at the top of Hollywood — and then he walked away.
The “Lost” star, now 59, stepped back from acting for more than a decade despite starring in one of TV’s biggest hits, as Dr. Jack Shepard.
Fox, who is returning to the spotlight with a role in “Yellowstone” spinoff “The Madison”, opened up about his decision to take an acting hiatus while attending the New York premiere of his new show on Monday.
“I felt like it was time to engage really intensely with my family,” he told Variety.
Fox admitted his demanding schedule during the height of “Lost” meant he missed parts of his children’s younger years.
“I had missed some of their childhood because I was on set all the time with “Lost” and doing films and promoting everything,” he said. “It was the right moment for me to step back and take a moment and engage with the people that I love and care about the most in the world.”
After more than a decade away from regular TV work, Fox said he eventually began to miss the craft.
Fox returned to television in 2022 with the series “Last Light,” marking his first TV role since “Lost” ended in 2010. He later appeared in the comedy series “C*A*U*G*H*T” before landing his latest role.
“I kind of missed storytelling,” he explained, adding that he quickly said yes when producer Taylor Sheridan approached him about joining “The Madison.”
In “The Madison,” Fox plays Paul, a rugged bachelor who thrives outdoors.
The series centers on a New York City family who relocates to Montana’s Madison River Valley after a devastating plane crash kills two relatives. Michelle Pfeiffer stars as wealthy matriarch Stacy Clyburn, who uproots her family from Manhattan following the tragedy.
Though his career has long been tied to Hollywood, Fox has previously spoken about his desire to live somewhere quieter.
In 2008, the actor said he and his family had considered moving to Oregon, where his relatives lived and outdoor life was plentiful.
“I enjoy fishing, hiking and skiing,” Fox told People. “The mountains and fresh air and all these things are available pretty easily in Oregon without having to drive a long distance.”
Fox first rose to fame playing Charlie Salinger on the hit drama “Party of Five,” which ran from 1994 to 2000.
He later became a household name as Jack Shephard on “Lost,” the ABC sci-fi phenomenon that aired for six seasons from 2004 to 2010.
Along the way, he also appeared in films including “Smokin’ Aces,” “We Are Marshall,” “Vantage Point,” “Speed Racer,” “World War Z” and the 2015 Western “Bone Tomahawk.”
Fox largely stepped away from acting between 2014 and 2021. In a 2022 interview, he said that after “Bone Tomahawk,” he felt he had checked off many of the career goals he had set for himself.
“’I kind of had a bucket list in my mind of things that I wanted to accomplish in the business,” he told Variety. “I wanted to do a Western. It’s a very odd Western, but it’s a Western. And so that sort of completed the bucket list.”
At the same time, his two sons — Kyle, now 28, and Byron, 25 — were growing up.
“I felt like it was time to be home,” Fox said, adding that his wife of more than 30 years, Margherita Ronchi, had been “beautifully” holding down the fort while he worked.
“I really felt like I was retiring from the business, and working on other creative elements that are really personal to me – some music and writing.”
For now, though, the actor appears ready to step back into the public eye.

Jax Taylor, Brittany Cartwright finally reach custody agreement 2 years post-split

Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright have finally settled custody of their son, Cruz, nearly two years after separating.
The “Vanderpump Rules” stars reached an agreement Monday, according to documents obtained by Page Six.
Instead of paying each other child support, the Bravolebrities are responsible for the expenses accrued when the 4-year-old is in their individual care.
Taylor, 46, has custody of Cruz Wednesday nights and every other weekend. Cartwright, for her part, claims the rest of the time.
The agreement outlined an alternating holiday schedule for the pair, with Cartwright, 37, getting Christmas every year.
She previously told Page Six this holiday is a non-negotiable, explaining, “Cruz has got all of his cousins and family and so much love [in Kentucky]. … I don’t ever want him to miss that. And I don’t want to miss it either.”
While the former couple have agreed to share joint legal custody of their little one, Cartwright has tie-breaking authority over medical decisions.
The “Valley” stars, notably, have agreed to not be under the influence of alcohol, marijuana or any other form of illegal drug while caring for Cruz.
They may not introduce their child to new romantic partners for at least six months.
TMZ was first to report the news of the exes’ custody arrangement.
Taylor and Cartwright called it quits on their four-year marriage in January 2024 and have yet to finalize their divorce.
“Jax and I are taking time apart and I made the decision to move into another home to take some space for the sake of my mental health,” Cartwright told “When Reality Hits” podcast listeners at the time.
She filed for divorce in August 2024.
Although Taylor filed court documents the following month giving his ex full legal and physical custody of Cruz, his rep later told Page Six that the former Sur bartender had “made errors” that would be “amended without delay.”
The spokesperson added, “Jax and Brittany have already long resolved all matters related to custody of Cruz, and will continue to work together privately for the best interest of their son, which remains their overriding concern.”
Cartwright and Taylor’s love story began in 2015, with the latter popping the question three years later.
After the duo wed in Kentucky in June 2019, they welcomed Cruz in April 2021.
