“Actress from ‘Gossip Girl’ Calls Blake Lively Difficult to Work With during Legal Dispute with Justin Baldoni”

A former actress accused Blake Lively of exhibiting unprofessional behavior while filming her TV series, “Gossip Girl.”

Rossella Rago, who used to be an actress and is now a TV chef, stated that working with Lively was a challenging experience. Rago accused Lively of mistreating Justin Baldoni and betraying him because she is accustomed to being praised all the time.

These allegations have emerged amidst a legal dispute between Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni. Lively has accused Baldoni of sexually harassing her during the filming of “It Ends With Us,” leading Baldoni to retaliate with a $400M lawsuit.

According to a former co-star of “Gossip Girl,” Lively’s behavior on set was problematic. The co-star claimed that Lively would often burp and fart in between scenes, making the work environment uncomfortable for everyone involved.

Rossella Rago, an actress turned host of the popular YouTube Italian food series “Cooking with Nonna,” made the accusations in a TikTok post where she claimed Lively also displayed a condescending attitude towards her colleagues.

“She would burp and fart in the middle of the set – and act like we were lucky to be smelling her farts,” Rago said in her TikTok post, adding, “She was very unpleasant to work with. I just don’t know how else to say it.”

The chef also slammed Lively’s husband, Ryan Reynolds, for enabling her, claiming that he’d “bow down at her feet” when they started dating after her brief fling with Leonardo Di Caprio in 2011.

“She is used to being adored, and when she is not, sh-t gets real, and Baldoni has found out how real it gets,” Rago noted, per the Daily Mail.

Rago, who claimed she worked as an extra in six series of “Gossip Girl,” accused Lively of being badly behaved and throwing people under the bus.

“I’m going to attest that Blake Lively is horrendous. I’m sorry to burst your bubble. She was a nepo baby, and when she was 19, the whole world was blowing smoke up her a-s. It is really hard to keep your head when that happens,” Rago said.

She went on, “I’m thinking she thinks that she has the right to behave exactly as she wants. And how dare we make a fuss? She couldn’t handle that people didn’t frigging like her, and she was looking like an a-shole.”

“She has thrown people under the bus,” she added. “This guy [Justin Baldoni] has a wife and family. And made out these benign interactions are assault when I’ve seen the footage and I think just ‘go home.'”

Elsewhere in her monologue, Rago, who has also written a series of cookery books, described how Lively would often avoid talking to extras directly except through a director who’d tell them to be quiet or not move as she deemed fit.

She narrated a particular instance where she gave Lively some script notes in a scene, saying the “Gossip Girl” star really had to “force herself” to be friendly and would say “thank you” in an unwelcoming manner.

Rago explained that after Lively’s split from DiCaprio, she came back to the set of “Gossip Girl” with “a puss on her face,” adding that “she was in a very bad mood and it was like: do not talk to her.”

Lively and DiCaprio dated briefly in 2011 and were seen together at the Cannes Film Festival and on dates in Italy, New York, and Australia.

Shortly after, she fell in love with Reynolds, and they married in 2012, welcoming two children together.

“Ryan started coming around. We all deserve a man like that, to bow down in front of you. That was cute. That’s the kind of person she is,” Rago added.

Rago’s claims have surfaced amid the legal feud between Lively and her “It Ends With Us” co-star and director, Baldoni.

The 37-year-old actress filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against Baldoni, leading to a media storm that has also dragged her husband into it.

In her lawsuit, she accused her co-star of creating a toxic environment, body-shaming her by asking about her weight, and sexually harassing her.

Lively alleged that Baldoni made other cast members uncomfortable and would always talk about his past addiction to pornography.

Baldoni has since responded with a $400 million countersuit, accusing Lively of trying to use her celebrity power to hijack his film and tarnish his reputation.

After filing a sexual harassment lawsuit against Baldoni, Lively has now claimed that he may still be actively pursuing a smear campaign against her as their legal tussle continues.

Lively and her husband requested a gag order against Bryan Freedman, the attorney for Baldoni, claiming he made false statements about the case.

In a follow-up letter written through their attorney, Esra Hudson, the couple reiterated their request, explaining that the way the case is handled “may have profound consequences.”

They alleged that Baldoni and his crisis PR chief, Melissa Nathan, have continued to mastermind a “social media manipulation campaign designed to impact social media algorithms against Ms. Lively.”

“The Lively-Reynolds Parties are informed and believe that these efforts have continued unabated since the CRD Complaint was filed, and may have even been accelerated,” Hudson’s letter stated, per Deadline. “The administration of justice in this case will be severely compromised if this behavior continues.”
