Amber Heard Speaks Out On Blake Lively’s Complaint Against Justin Baldoni After He Used Same Crisis Manager As Johnny Depp!

Amber Heard Speaks Out on Blake Lively’s Sexual Harassment Complaint Against Justin Baldoni: 'I Saw This Firsthand'

Amber Heard is sticking up for Blake Lively.

In a rare comment to NBC News on Monday, the Aquaman star said she knows all too well what the Gossip Girl alum has been going through amid her sexual harassment lawsuit against Justin Baldoni. If you don’t know, Blake just accused her It Ends With Us co-star and director of harassment on set and striking up a nasty PR smear campaign to “destroy” her reputation. He hired PR crisis manager Melissa Nathan to help him do this — the same woman Johnny Depp enlisted in his defamation trial against Amber!

As we all saw, despite some nasty allegations levied against Johnny, Amber LARGELY took the fall on social media. We mean, she suffered SO much backlash, she moved to Spain and has mostly stepped out of the spotlight! So, she’s one of few who really knows what it’s like to go against this tough PR team! Giving her two cents on this latest scandal, she told the outlet:

“Social media is the absolute personification of the classic saying ‘A lie travels halfway around the world before truth can get its boots on.’ I saw this firsthand and up close. It’s as horrifying as it is destructive.”

Oof!

By the way, Blake actually mentioned Amber in her lawsuit by noting that Justin hired the same PR crisis management as Johnny did in the 2022 defamation lawsuit, which he ultimately won. Even more reason Amber’s speaking out (alongside many other Blake supporters).

As of now, Justin’s attorney Bryan Freedman has denied all the allegations. In response to Amber’s comment, the lawyer added on Monday:

TAG PR [AKA The Agency Group] must be the most powerful group of publicists the world has ever seen for it to be able to completely change the perception of both Amber Heard and Blake Lively.”

He also said the only similarity between the two cases is that “every move they have made has been out there for everyone to see, widely filmed and documented for the public to make up their own minds — which they did, organically.” But was it really “organic” if Justin and his PR team were feeding stories to the media to create a fake narrative?? That’s what Blake’s alleging anyway…

This whole thing is so icky!! Thoughts?? Sound OFF (below)!
