Journalist makes brutal remarks about 'narcissistic' Blake Lively after being 'subpoenaed' by her

Megyn Kelly alleges that she's been subpoenaed by Blake Lively

Megyn Kelly has some choice words for Blake Lively after allegedly being subpoenaed by the actress.

Lively is currently embroiled in a lawsuit with her former It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni.

There were rumors that the pair didn't see eye-to-eye on the set of the movie, and shortly after its release, Lively slapped Baldoni with a lawsuit alleging that he'd sexually harassed her and that he and his team created a 'smear campaign' about her.

Baldoni has denied the allegations, and he filed a $400 million lawsuit against her, her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and The New York Times; however, a judge threw the case out in June.

Amidst the drama, American journalist Megyn Kelly obtained a voice note of Baldoni saying: "On what could have been one of the most beautiful nights of my life career wise, I literally was sent to the basement with all my friends and family for over an hour because I wasn't allowed to be seen, she didn't want me anywhere near her or the rest of the cast."

He was referring to one of the It Ends With Us premieres, and it's thought that the 'she' he mentions is Lively. In light of Kelly being the one allegedly responsible for leaking the audio, she claims Lively has now subpoenaed her.

In a scathing rant about the Gossip Girl actress, Kelly described her as a 'narcissistic bully [and] brat'.

She continued to say: "[Lively] actually tried to get the confidential and proprietary materials my team and I used for any and all stories about he, because Blake Lively was unable to fathom that yours truly had developed a genuine revulsion toward her on my own."

The journalist pointed out that she and Baldoni share the same attorney, but that she had acquired the lawyer's services long before Baldoni's recent case regarding Lively.

Kelly added that Lively has reportedly suggested Baldoni and their lawyer have paid her for her 'anti-Blake coverage', which she denied.

Her brutal rant continued: "This is how narcissistic this woman is. She actually thinks I needed to get paid by Baldoni's team to say negative things about her. News flash, Blake: I came to those conclusions totally organically. Don't give away your power, sweetheart. It was you — it was all you who made me unable to stand you. No man had anything to do with it."

Apparently, Kelly fought the subpoena and won, meaning she doesn't have to hand over the requested documents (should they exist).

But Lively's team denies that Kelly was even subpoenaed in the first place.

"At no point in this litigation has Ms. Lively served a subpoena on Megyn Kelly," a rep for the actress told US Weekly.

They added: "Ms. Lively is continuing to pursue discovery in order to prove her case that Justin Baldoni, Jed Wallace, Melissa Nathan and the Wayfarer Parties’ retaliated against her for speaking up against the harassment she and others experienced on set, as alleged in her complaint."

UNILAD have approached reps for Kelly for comment.
