Elvis Presley beautifully said,“Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain’t going away.” The world of celebrity lawsuits can sometimes feel like watching a chess match—strategic, loaded with hidden moves, and full of pawns and queens all fighting for their place in the spotlight. Now, with the much-anticipated hearing betweenIt Ends with Usco-stars Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni looming, the pressure is at its peak.

When it comes to celebrity gossip, everyone has their two cents. However, Candace Owens recently dropped a bombshell, pointing fingers at some of Hollywood’s most influential figures in the ongoing Lively-Baldoni lawsuit. But as she digs deeper into the dynamics of media influence and power, Owens also raises a chilling concern: How far are the media and celebrity alliances willing to go when it comes to shaping public perception?
Blake Lively’s ‘star power’—More glamour than muscle?
Candace Owenssuggests thatBlake Lively, though a household name, lacks the star power to influence major outlets like The New York Times to risk their credibility for a smear campaign. She argues that Lively, no matter how popular, doesn’t belong to the upper echelon of celebrities who can influence the media (viaYouTube):
Someone like Blake Lively…could not have had the star power to get the New York Times to put their entire professional reputation on the line to smear someone like Justin Baldoni…they are just not in that camp of celebrities they are not that high up of the celebrity food chain.

Owens is suggesting that if the media is truly going to risk its credibility to tear someone down, it would take someone with far more influence—a celebrity who commands attention from media moguls, PR executives, and reporters alike. And for Owens, that’s where Taylor Swift enters the picture. The singer, Owens believes, holds that rare kind of star power, the kind that can move mountains—or, more aptly, set the narrative in motion.
Ronan Farrow’s link to Taylor Swift and Justin Baldoni lawsuit: Candace Owens connects the dots
Ronan Farrow, the Pulitzer-winning journalist whofamously exposedHarvey Weinstein’s reign of terror and helped spark the Me Too movement, now finds himself at the center of a new storm. Candace Owens has drawn a provocative connection between Farrow’s recent interactions with Taylor Swift (seeDaily Mail) and the lawsuit involving Justin Baldoni. According to Owens, these ties may not be as innocent as they appear:
The person that you just saw saying good night to or sleep tight to Taylor Swift is none other than Ronan Farrow… he is Ronan Farrow without question the father of the Me Too movement.

Owens links Farrow’s influence to a broader web of power players who shape the narratives in Hollywood and beyond. When Farrow and Swift were spotted hanging out in New York City, it raised eyebrows. But according to Owens, this was no casual friendship—it’s a partnership built around shared ideals and, perhaps, shared ambitions. So, what does that mean for theJustin Baldonicase?

According to Owens, the trio of Ronan Farrow, Jodi Kantor, and Megan Twohey—who are often credited withexposingWeinstein—formed what she calls a“hit squad” that plays a dangerous game of media manipulation. Owens suggests that these journalists use partial truths and strategic narratives to destroy reputations:
What you should know about these individuals is what you’re looking at is a hit squad…they take people down by telling partial truths.

Her focus on Farrow and his colleagues is not without reason. Owens goes on to point out that the media’s role in shaping public opinion is so powerful that it can bring down careers even without solid evidence. She highlights the cases of men like Weinstein and Matt Lauer, both of whom she believes were victims of media witch hunts:
Harvey Weinstein was indeed intentionally taken down…by every metric that I can see Harvey Weinstein had a trial by the media and not a trial in the courtroom.

Owens’ message is loud and clear: the media’s ability to create narratives can be just as dangerous as any courtroom decision.
The Role of Taylor Swift and Blake Lively
Candace Owens is particularly suspicious ofTaylor Swift’s involvement in the media machinery, suggesting that her friendship with Ronan Farrow may be part of a larger play to consolidate power in Hollywood. She speculates that, having come out of a long relationship, Swift might have been looking for a way to feel powerful again.
I think she wanted to feel powerful potentially I’ll help you out…I’ll do whatever there is no reason you.
Owens links Farrow’s friendship with Swift, noting that both share similar ideals and speculates that their alliance might be part of a larger strategy to influence the media’s portrayal of people like Justin Baldoni.

The insinuation here is that Swift, possibly motivated by her need for control, could be using her influence and relationships to steer the narrative of the Baldoni case in her favor—at least to some degree. Well, please note that it’s all Owens’ speculation, but her suspicion is rooted in a pattern of behavior that she believes is far from innocent.
