Taylor Swift would probably like to be excluded from theIt Ends With Usnarrative, but here we are.
Lively’s updated lawsuit claims two of her costars reported feeling “uncomfortable” on set.

But is that really the case?
Well, its complicated.
However, its worth pointing out a few things.
Heres what we know.
Taylor Swift’s full name isnevermentioned.
In onealleged text messageto Baldoni, Lively allegedly claimed his response didnt feel great for me.
Or them, supposedly referring to her husband and a redacted megacelebrity friend.
Baldoni understood the subtext: he needed to comply with Livelys direction for the script.
Baldoni previously suedThe New York Timesfor defamation.
So why do people think this friend is Taylor Swift?
However, thats not the only reason many are assuming Swift is the celebrity friend in question.
It really does help a lot.
Makes it so much more fun and interesting.
Really excited and grateful to do this together.
It sure sounds like it.
Is that all?
There was also a reference to singing in Lively’s alleged response to Baldon’s text.
They are embarrassingly effusive.
And I’m the person they each go to first.
That reciprocal creativity and support has been one of my life’s greatest and most fulfilling gifts.
When they loved and signed off on the pages, I felt good to send them to you.
They asked what you thought specifically after.
They checked in so many times.
Which, of course, didn’t feel great for me.
To have my passion be praised instead of any specific contribution.
Or even just that you didn’t like the pages.
Which was fine also.
I spoke to you about this when we first met.
It’s more the principle of the dynamics at play.
Because they know firsthand all I contribute.
They don’t give a shit about that.
And because of that, everyone listens to them with immense respect and enthusiasm.
And like her, I happen to have a few dragons.
For better or worse, but usually for better, because my dragons also protect those I fight for.
So really, we all benefit from those gorgeous monsters of mine.
I can promise you.
So is Taylor Taylor Swift?
