Blake Lively Gossip

Over the last few years, I have done a complete 180 on Blake Lively. I have zero interest in her explaining the history of ice cream or whatever, and plantation weddings are gross, but as an actress, I have reversed my opinion.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds attended the world premiere of Pokemon: Detective Pikachu in New York last night and it was also the world premiere of their third pregnancy.

So many celebrities showed up last night at the Versace pre-fall 2019 presentation at the American Stock Exchange last night.

Yesterday, I described one of Blake Lively’s outfits as “P.T. Barnum meets Tuxedo Mask”. Now she’s just fully cosplaying as Willy Wonka walking around New York City with a literal cane. Full Story
