Blake Lively Attends SXSW Premiere of New Film After Legal Dispute With Justin Baldoni
Blake Lively made a notable appearance at the South by Southwest (SXSW) Film & TV Festival on March 7, 2025, attending the premiere of her latest film, “Another Simple Favor.”
This event marked her first public engagement since the onset of her legal dispute with actor and director Justin Baldoni.
At the premiere, Lively appeared upbeat and engaged, interacting warmly with fans and posing for photographs.
She expressed her enthusiasm about reprising her role as Emily Nelson, stating that reuniting with co-star Anna Kendrick was “the best” and that the experience was thoroughly enjoyable.
“Another Simple Favor,” directed by Paul Feig, is the sequel to the 2018 film “A Simple Favor.”
The narrative follows Stephanie (Kendrick), now a private investigator, as she attends Emily’s (Lively) extravagant wedding in Capri, Italy. The film is scheduled for release on Amazon Prime Video on May 1.
Lively’s appearance comes amid an ongoing legal battle with Baldoni, her co-star and director in the film adaptation of “It Ends with Us.”
In December 2024, Lively filed a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department, alleging that Baldoni had created a hostile work environment through inappropriate comments and unsolicited physical contact during filming. Baldoni has denied these allegations and has filed a defamation lawsuit in response.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
