Though that complaint was later dismissed, it pulled the pop star into the messy legal crossfire.<\/p>\n<p>The drama escalated after Baldoni\u2019s team moved to subpoena Swift &#8211; a request that was later withdrawn. Still, according to court filings, his legal team continued to allegedly \u201cdemand\u201d access to Swift\u2019s communications with Lively.<\/p>\n<p>In June, People reported that Baldoni had not obtained those messages &#8211; but that didn\u2019t stop the court from intervening.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Most recently, Judge Lewis J. Liman denied a motion from Lively seeking to block Baldoni\u2019s team from accessing her conversations with Swift, paving the way for more scrutiny.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with The Life of a Showgirl on the horizon, fans are convinced Swift is speaking &#8211; or singing &#8211; her truth.

I do think that she will shade Blake Lively on her album. Why? Because Blake Lively is, after all, an ex. And she likes to talk about her exes. She&#8217;s an ex. She&#8217;s an ex bestie. Her greatest regret has nothing to do with Justin Baldoni, ruining his career, giving him anxiety for life. That&#8217;s not her regret. Her regret is falling out with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.the-express.com\/latest\/taylor-swift\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\">Taylor Swift<\/a>.
