Blake Lively Faces Renewed Criticism Over Interview

Blake Lively is facing renewed criticism due to a resurfaced 2016 interview with Norwegian journalist Kjersti Flaa. The interview, which took place during the promotion of the Woody Allen film 'Café Society,' has been described as uncomfortable, with Lively and co-star Parker Posey displaying dismissive behavior towards Flaa. The tension began when Flaa congratulated Lively on her pregnancy, to which Lively responded sarcastically. The situation further deteriorated when Flaa's questions about the film's costumes were met with Lively's pointed remarks questioning whether male actors would be asked similar questions. This incident has resurfaced amidst backlash from Lively's recent press tour for 'It Ends With Us,' where her promotional tone has been criticized as tone-deaf given the film's serious subject matter of domestic violence.
