LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Parker Posey has been pulled into the ongoing drama surrounding Blake Lively as a resurfaced 2016 interview clip went viral.
The clip, which went viral in August 2024, initially sparked outrage over how Lively reacted after Kjersti Flaa, a Norwegian reporter, congratulated her on her pregnancy during a press tour for the film, 'Cafe Society'.

Parker Posey pulled into Blake Lively drama after viral clip
In the viral interview clip, Kjersti Flaa congratulated Blake Lively who was pregnant at the time with her second child. However, the reporter was met with a weird reply as the 'Gossip Girl' actress sarcastically referenced Flaa’s own body and made a remark about the journalist's "bump".
Flaa later revealed that she could not conceive and admitted that the interview was painful and left her questioning her career. She said that she was so humiliated that she considered quitting journalism, according to Daily Mail.
After Lively’s painful comment, Posey tried to keep the joke going and said, "What about my bump?" as she gestured toward her backside.
'The Age of Adaline' actress then took the joke further and said, "You've got two nice bumps. Lovely lady lumps, check it out."
Further in their conversation, Posey abruptly asked Flaa, "Do you like the movie, are you a Woody Allen fan?" as she tried to redirect the conversation and put Flaa on the spot.
When Flaa asked them about their film's costumes which made Lively push back and say, "Everyone wants to talk about the clothes. Would they ask the men about the clothes?" to which Flaa replied, "I would."
Following Flaa's response, Lively and Posey turned to each other and started talking about what the male actors wore, completely ignoring Flaa.
Lively then took out her frustration and said, "I feel like it's women who only get the conversation."
The video has been making rounds on the internet since the Lively-Justin Baldoni feud broke out in August 2024 after the release of their film 'It Ends With Us'.
In December 2024, Lively filed a legal complaint against Baldoni, accusing him of harassment and starting a smear campaign against her. Strongly denying the accusations, the actor filed a $400 million countersuit against Lively and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, on claims of civil extortion, defamation, and invasion of privacy.
