Perez Hilton speaks out on Blake Lively’s subpoena withdrawal
Hilton is the founding father of his popular celebrity gossip website, Perez Hilton. In conversation with Page Six, he shared, “Nobody told me to write anything negative about her. Nobody paid me, and I formed my own opinions.” He claimed that the subpoena Blake issued was “burdensome.” The blogger then added that the subpoena interfered with his “journalistic sources and work product.” Furthermore, he shared that he is not a defendant in this case.
The celebrity columnist also compared the Lively vs. Baldoni lawsuit as a David vs. Goliath situation. “David being Justin Baldoni — and in this instance, me — and Goliath being Blake Lively and her A-list, very powerful, very rich husband, Ryan Reynolds.” Hilton also hinted that the hearings led to the onset of exhaustion for him. Blake Lively had alleged that Perez had joined hands with Justin, and was using his platform for negative press to defame her. She had described it as a smear campaign.
Baldoni eventually counter-sued Reynolds and Blake for extortion and defamation. However, his lawsuit was dismissed due to some technicalities. The case quickly became controversial, with both Baldoni and Lively ready to testify in court. As it happens, they will have their day when the case proceeds, in March 2026.
Hilton remarked, “I am certain that if ACLU had not agreed to represent me, Blake would absolutely still be pursuing the subpoena. Their support made all the difference.”
While this case highlights all the struggles that come with being in the public eye, it also throws light on the growing intermingling of online media and Hollywood.
