I always encourage you to do your own research and come to your own conclusions. You can read the 52-page filing for free here.After the Blake Lively filing broke major headlines last week, Justin Baldoni was hit with a second lawsuit, this time from his former publicist, Stephanie Jones.Stephanie Jones, who owns Joneswork, claims that a junior employee, Jennifer Abel, went rogue and ran the alleged smear campaign against Blake Lively without her knowledge or consent. Not only that, but she claims to have evidence that Abel and Melissa Nathan planned to pin the smear campaign on Jones and use the bad press to poach more of her clients, including Baldoni, to their competing PR agencies.All of this happened in the days leading up to the “It Ends With Us” movie premiere in August of 2024 and Jones includes dozens of texts and emails to back up her claims.In today’s episode of “Ahead of the Curve with Coco Mocoe”, we will be diving into the second lawsuit filed against Baldoni and his PR team, we will discuss what this reveals about the underbelly of Hollywood P.R., what the accused might do next to fight back and the disturbing link between crisis comms manager, Melissa Nathan, and her journalist sister, Sara Nathan.Thank you for being a coconut and making my Substack a best-seller!
