'That's just insane': Blake Lively stunned as she's asked 'wild' Taylor Swift question on TV show
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Blake Lively was stumped when asked to choose her favorite Taylor Swift song on the Australian talk show 'The Project'.
As a dedicated Swiftie, the 'Green Lantern' actress responded, "You're gonna ask me to pick one song?! That's a wild question," as per Daily Mail.
"Honestly, I love her music too much to pick one song. That's just, like, insane... I can tell you my favorite child if you would like to know that!" remarked Lively, before adding, "I'm joking. I genuinely don't have a favorite child or song."
Blake Lively and Taylor Swift have been friends for almost a decade old

In a heartwarming gesture, Lively recently expressed her gratitude after Swift honored her husband, Ryan Reynolds, and his 'Deadpool & Wolverine' co-star Hugh Jackman in a touching tribute on her Instagram Story.
"Thank you @taylorswift for honoring my guy(s)," reposted Lively, sharing the singer's Instagram Story. She added, "I couldn't have said it better myself. Which is unsurprising given that I have 14 less Grammys and not a single sold out stadium world tour."
The pop star's connection with Lively and Reynolds has deepened over the years, transforming from a close friendship into a familial bond.
People report that the couple's children affectionately call her "Aunt Taylor," and she has incorporated their names into her music, notably mentioning James, Inez, and Betty in her song 'Betty' from the 'Folklore' album.

Not only so, as per The Independent, Lively and Reynolds joined Swift to cheer on her footballer boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The couple joined Swift for the Chiefs' game against the New York Jets on October 1, 2023, where they cheered enthusiastically alongside other celebrities like Jackman and Sophie Turner.
Lively also accompanied Swift to catch the Super Bowl LVIII, which the Chiefs won.

Being a godmother to Lively and Reynolds' children is a role Swift takes seriously.
The 'Free Guy' actor has also joked about Swift's babysitting skills, humorously noting, "The cost of that is… I believe the accountant called it ‘cost-prohibitive.’ But what he probably meant was, ‘Cost-insane-what-are-you-doing-I’m-no-longer-your-accountant!'" as per E! News.
He added, "I always do say that if anyone ever were to take over the role of Deadpool, actually Taylor would be very good. Because that’s a superpower that I don’t know that she shows everyone too often: She’s one of the funniest people I’ve ever met."
The couple frequently enjoys dinner and hangs out with 'The Tortured Poets Department' artist.
Over the years, they've also been regulars at her concerts, where Taylor never misses a chance to give them a heartfelt shoutout from the stage.
