'B*tch, Doofus Director': Inside the Alleged Leaked Texts Between Taylor Swift and Blake Lively About Justin Baldoni

Oh man, have you seen the tea spilling all over TikTok and Twitter lately?? It is honestly so messy. So, apparently, there’s this whole drama involving the It Ends With Us movie, and now Taylor Swift and Blake Lively are being dragged into the middle of it because of some "leaked" texts.

Inside the Alleged Leaked Texts Between Taylor Swift and Blake Lively About Justin Baldoni

I tried to keep up with the timeline, but basically, people are claiming that Blake and Taylor (who are obviously total besties) were roasting the director and star, Justin Baldoni, in a group chat.

The Alleged "Texts"

According to the rumors (and I’m using a lot of air quotes here because who knows what's real anymore), the texts supposedly called Justin a "B*tch" and a "doofus director." The part that really sent the internet into a tailspin was the line: "Clown thinks he's a writer now." This is allegedly a dig at Justin for trying to take more creative control over the script or the final cut of the movie, which Blake reportedly wasn't a fan of.

Why is this blowing up?

Here is why everyone is obsessed with this:

The Creative Rift: There’s been talk for months that Blake and Justin didn't get along on set. They didn't even do press together!

The "Mean Girl" Narrative: Some people are using these (unverified) texts to claim Blake and Taylor are being "mean girls."

The Ryan Reynolds Connection: Since Blake’s husband, Ryan, also helped write some scenes, the "writer" comment feels extra pointed.

Is it actually real though?

To be totally honest, most of the big entertainment outlets like Variety or People haven't confirmed these texts are actually real. It feels like one of those things that started on a gossip blog like DeuxMoi and just grew legs. Taylor is usually so careful with her PR, it’s hard to imagine her letting something like that leak—but then again, she is super loyal to Blake.

It's such a mess. One minute everyone is wearing florals for the movie premiere, and the next, there's a full-on war between the lead actors.
