Blake Lively's publicist says she shouldn't be a defendant in Justin Baldoni's lawsuit against Blake because, despite Baldoni's claims to the contrary, she didn't start this public relations war.

Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds' publicist Leslie Sloane filed a motion to dismiss, asking to be removed from Justin Baldoni's $400 million lawsuit. In the filing, her lawyers say Lively 'bravely spoke up about Baldoni’s predatory behavior.
