<p>Taylor Swift is best known for headlining stadium tours, not appearing in court filings. But new legal <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.nysd.634304/gov.uscourts.nysd.634304.1245.44_1.pdf">documents</a> in the lawsuit between &#8220;It Ends With Us&#8221; co-stars Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively place the pop star squarely in the drama, alleging she referred to Baldoni, who also directed the film, as a &#8220;b*tch&#8221; in a December 2024 text message to Lively.</p>
<p>Lively has accused Baldoni of sexual harassment and retaliation in a suit filed against him and his production company, Wayfarer Studios.</p>
<p>Text messages included in court docs filed Tuesday in the U.S. District Court of New York in Manhattan show how the two friends at the time viewed Lively&#8217;s &#8220;It Ends With Us&#8221; co-star amid the actors&#8217; feud over the 2024 film.</p>
<p>“I think this b*tch knows something is coming because he’s gotten out his tiny violin,” Swift texted Lively, language her legal team later acknowledged while disputing the timing of the exchange.</p>

<p>In another exchange revealed Tuesday, Lively referred to Baldoni, who denies all accusations against him, as her &#8220;doofus director&#8221; and a &#8220;clown&#8221; to Swift.</p>
<p>The unsealed texts also appear to contradict statements from Swift&#8217;s representative, per <a href="https://www.tmz.com/2026/01/20/taylor-swift-text-messages-to-blake-lively-about-justin-baldoni/">TMZ, </a>who said last year the singer had no involvement with the film&#8217;s script and that a meeting with Lively and Baldoni was a setup.</p>
<p>According to TMZ, Lively said in her deposition that she sent Swift the script on her way to Lively&#8217;s apartment while Baldoni was still there and asked her to read it, stressing there was no pressure to do so.</p>
<p>The court filings also show Baldoni confided in others about his behind-the-scenes drama with Lively.</p>
<p>&#8220;If [Lively] doesn&#8217;t promote the movie she can leak that I&#8217;m a bad person or that she felt unsafe with me,&#8221; Baldoni said.</p>
<p>Lively&#8217;s sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit is set to go to trial in May. Baldoni&#8217;s $400 million countersuit was dismissed by the court in late 2025, and a hearing on a motion to dismiss Lively&#8217;s claims is set for January 23.</p>
