Kjersti Flaa shared on Youtube about an uncomfortable 2016 experience with Blake Lively that made her reconsider her career.

On Saturday, Flaa shared a clip congratulating Lively on her little “bump,” referencing the actress’s recently confirmed pregnancy with her second child. Lively’s response was reportedly filled with sarcasm as she replied, “Congrats on your little bump,” leading to an awkward laugh between the two, according to Page Six. The tension increased when Flaa, praised the film “Café Society” and asked whether the cast enjoyed the fashion. Lively responded without directly addressing the journalist and said to Posey, “Everyone wants to talk about the clothes, but I wonder if they would ask the men about the clothes.”
When Flaa assured that she would ask the men, too, Lively and Posey talked about their male co-stars’ outfits, ignoring the journalist during the segment. Lively stated that the focus is disproportionately on women’s fashion. Social media users who watched the clip had various feelings about Lively’s body language and responses, some calling her unprofessional and the interview hard to watch.

There have been rumors concerning a feud between the two as there have been instances where they have ignored joint interviews and the absence of red carpet photos during the movie’s press tour.
Page Six also reported that a close source claimed that Baldoni is reportedly “extremely difficult” to work with, making Lively uncomfortable on set.
