Blake Lively Allegedly Threatened Taylor Swift To Release THIS Message Of Support Amid Justin Baldoni Lawsuit After Super Bowl Snub -- READ IT HERE!

by · Perez Hilton

Y’all… The hill Blake Lively reportedly died on when it came to her friendship with Taylor Swift is WILD!

It’s no secret the friends have not been close since the Justin Baldoni lawsuit drama. The actress pulled her songwriter friend into the scandal, and allegedly threatened to expose their private chats after the Grammy winner refused to publicly support her. Well, it turns out the nail in the coffin was Blake not getting invited to the Super Bowl!

As Perezcious readers know, Blake and Taylor attended the Super Bowl together in 2024, and it was a big affair. But by the next year, Blake was nowhere to be found in the performer’s private box!

According to DailyMail.com sources on Saturday, the snub made it clear to the public that Taylor and Blake were falling out — something Blake reportedly couldn’t stand! So, through her lawyers, she allegedly issued her ex-BFF a demand: to release a message of support, or risk “ten years’ worth” of private texts between them getting leaked, detailing Tay Tay’s romances and other personal moments.

WTF?! All because she wasn’t at the Super Bowl?!

To avoid the reported leak, the Gossip Girl alum allegedly proposed Taylor release a message denying any feud rumors and clearing the air about the Super Bowl absence. She suggested Taylor make a social media post saying something along the lines of:

“So sad, my bestie couldn’t come to the Super Bowl”

Wild!!!

A source dished:

“It was the ultimate blow to their friendship. … The threat to expose Taylor’s most intimate confidences unless she posted something to explain why Blake was missing at the Super Bowl was outrageous. There was no going back from that.”

Meanwhile, a source close to Blake denied the allegation:

“Blake has never threatened to leak Taylor’s personal or private text messages.”

In fact, another insider claimed that at one point during the legal battle, seemingly after Baldoni subpoenaed Swift for communications relating to the case, Blake actually asked Taylor to delete all their private messages, as Bryan Freedman‘s affidavit also claimed, for fear they’d “prove” there was “never any mention of sexual improprieties” by Justin after she accused him of sexual harassment. The source said:

“There was only her b**ching about how much she hated Justin and wanting Taylor come to her apartment to scare this d**khead director.”

Soooo, she wanted Tay Tay to delete the private messages, but also allegedly threatened to hold them over her former friend’s head as leverage? MESSY, if true!!!!

Of course, Taylor never released the Super Bowl message, and instead, reports of Blake’s alleged threat hit the internet, reportedly thanks to the music icon’s dad, Scott Swift, who was trying to protect her from getting dragged into the legal mess even further. And ever since, Blake and Taylor’s friendship has reportedly never been the same. It’s really not hard to see why they drifted apart after all this!
