Okay, I'm sorry. This is just, this is, this is the most cut and dry part of this for me. I think this was a moment our jaws hit the floor. If she was in black briefs and basically mostly covered, she was fucking lying. Right, right. This is a lie. Well, well, well, back together again for another huge episode on the Justin Baldoni versus Blake Lively of it all.
You guys, we had Blake's case against Justin, her legal complaint that was filed right before Christmas. Then we had Justin's case against the New York Times filed around January 4th, January 5th. On January 16th, Justin Baldoni filed his full lawsuit against Blake Lively. I wanna ground everyone, okay, in how we're approaching this episode.
We went through all of the allegations against Justin Baldoni in Blake's complaint. We also went through everything Justin Baldoni said in his lawsuit with the New York Times. When we went through both of these lawsuits, there was a lot in Blake's complaint that was not addressed in Justin's lawsuit against the New York Times.
Right, and I remember us saying, you know, he doesn't address certain things in here. Right, exactly. And we took Blake's words in her complaint at face value. We assumed that this complaint was not filled with bold-faced lies. Right, right. This could have been where we made a grave error. Yeah, I think it's time to give the defense, or Justin Baldoni in this case, his day in court.
His absolute fair day in court. His right as an American. So one thing really quick. He's suing Blake and Ryan for $400 million. I think it's really important to have some perspective on... That's nothing. That's a drop in the bucket. I think it's important to have some perspective on the fact that that's not nothing for them. Per Google, their net worth is around $350 million.
He is ostensibly going after their entire fortune. Yeah, I think that is something critical to note here because Wayfair Studios and the billionaire backing that they have are really putting the full force of their weight behind this case. And they really feel like they will be vindicated. And I think them choosing to sue Blake and Ryan for that much money shows that. Absolutely.
He has the billionaire backer. And they want to go to trial. They do not want a settlement. They want all the facts of this laid bare for a jury of their peers to make a decision. And they are going for that full amount. They're also telling her they're not just going for $400 million. So this is at the end of the lawsuit. Okay.
they're also going for an award of money for mental pain and anguish beyond the 400 million i mean blake lively she might be interning for us once this is all over yeah blake now you can send your resume to hello at no after reading these documents like just to take a second before we really dive headfirst into everything i want them to have their day in court because there is just so much here
You can't look away from it. It is irrefutable and it is shocking. So let's get to the heart of the matter. But this is another thing I want to say. We took Blake's words at face value and we could have been wrong there. And if we were wrong, we will admit it. We're not going to just dig our heels in because we had a different opinion two weeks ago.
