Blake Lively Slammed Again for Old Pregnancy Cravings Joke

Blake Lively is facing renewed criticism for a 2014 interview where she joked that pregnancy cravings aren't real. In the interview with reporter AJ Calloway, Lively claimed she was just "teasing," but the resurfaced video has drawn backlash from fans who find her comments insensitive. This controversy comes amid Lively's ongoing feud with her "It Ends With Us" co-star Justin Baldoni, who has accused her of bullying and being "tone-deaf" during their movie’s publicity tour. The interview, filmed while Lively was pregnant with her first child, included her remark that pregnancy cravings were a way for women to "take advantage" of their partners, leading many to accuse her of downplaying the challenges of pregnancy.
