Perez Hilton is sharing his truth.

The "OG blogger" spoke with The JV Show this week about being subpoenaed by Blake Lively amid her ongoing legal battle with It Ends With Us co-star and director Justin Baldoni. Hilton said he was one of "dozens of content creators and journalists [and] people with really small followings" because she is "convinced" that Baldoni has "nefariously been paying content creators to release negative videos and negative stories about her."

Hilton, however, has another perspective on the idea that people sharing critical and even harsh takes about her online.

"She refuses to accept that us and the public have formed opinions on their own, and that's really the crux of it all," he said. "I'm telling you right now. Nobody paid me, nobody told me to smear her on anybody else's behalf, and I haven't done that. I and others have just shared our opinions."

He hit back on the notion that he is "Team Justin," claiming instead that he is "Team The Truth."

"That's what matters to me. That's where I've always stood, and like a lot of people... I believed Blake Lively after I read her CRD complaint in December and her suit against Justin Baldoni," he said, referring to the "explosive" complaint she filed with the California Civil Rights Department in December 2024 accusing him of sexual harassment and retaliation, which he has denied.

However, his opinion changed after reading Baldoni's own complaint which he said offered "unedited text messages, even more emails and texts and what appeared to be a true accounting of what really happened" that left him pondering, "Oh my gosh, I can't believe I got this so wrong."

Hilton also slammed Lively's team for allegedly serving companies like X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok to "get information on their users," a move that he called "unethical" and likened to a "fishing expedition."

In June, a judge dismissed Baldoni's $400 million countersuit against Lively, her husband Ryan Reynolds and their publicist as well as his $250 million libel lawsuit against the New York Times.
