Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni’s legal battle has left Hollywood divided. However, Armie Hammer has made it clear that he wants no part in the drama. Despite his connections to both actors, he refuses to take sides.
Shutting Down Gossip Girl Questions
During an appearance on Hot Mics with Billy Bush, Hammer faced direct questions about Blake Lively. Bush asked whether Lively had fired him from Gossip Girl and why he left after four episodes. Before Bush could finish, Hammer cut him off. He stated that another fight was happening, but he had no involvement and no desire to be dragged into it. He firmly added that he already had enough problems of his own.
Revealing His Connection to Baldoni
Although he refused to discuss Lively, Hammer unexpectedly mentioned his past with Baldoni. He revealed that they had attended acting classes together nearly 20 years ago and had even performed scenes together. While he described Baldoni as a nice person, he quickly distanced himself from the ongoing controversy. He insisted that their past association did not mean he was taking sides.
Dodging Questions About Blake Lively
Bush continued pressing Hammer by bringing up his Gossip Girl kissing scene with Lively. Hammer immediately dismissed the question. He claimed he did not remember and added that even if he did, he would not comment. He wrapped up the conversation by stating that he had already endured enough media scrutiny and wanted no part in another Hollywood controversy.
Hammer Wants No More Drama
Hammer’s response made it clear—he has no interest in fueling this feud. After facing his own scandals, he is determined to stay away from unnecessary Hollywood drama.
