Lil Huddy has used Charli D’Amelio for clout since Dec 2019. As a manager, it was unpopular to bring it up then especially bc Huddy’s manager Erika Monroe Williams had such a close relationship w Charli’s parents. Now Huddy’s new song eludes to Charli being a “homie hopper”. Wow.
In Dec 2019 FIVE of my clients were in #HypeHouse - Charli, Dixie, Addison, Toni & Ondreaz. For this photoshoot & breakout Taylor Lorenz NYT story, I wasn’t welcome for some reason. 🧐

Lil Huddy, Lorenz etc. - I was onto you so you kept me away, right?

nytimes.com/2020/01/03/sty…
It’s important to follow the history of how these OG TikTok darlings (who now make an estimated $10M+ a yr EACH) originally blew up. I can tell you bc I was there.

#LilHuddy gladly took credit for “scouting” Charli D’Amelio but Charli was already a ⭐️ & had a team behind her.
Here were my 5 clients at the time of this photo shoot with NYT & Taylor Lorenz. Arguably the #HypeHouse’s biggest stars perhaps aside from #LilHuddy at the time. #CharliDamelio #AddisonRae etc.

I met LilHuddy at Instaskate Dec 2019. I was concerned abt him, his arrogance etc.
Then there were Erika Monroe-Williams clients - #LilHuddy etc. 5 #HypeHouse members tied to LilHuddy or his manager. Later @daisykeeech was stripped of her HH founder role. One of the leaders even spoke disparagingly about Daisy to me eluding that she was just a trashy IG model.
My impression towards #LilHuddy towards #CharliDamelio at the time was that of someone with his own selfish agenda. He pretty much dismissed me and at some point it was clear that I was not welcome in his house - the #HypeHouse - even though I repped 5 of the most famous members.
I tried to warn the D’Amelios abt Taylor Lorenz. I felt it was my professional responsibility as a manager.

As you can see, the other manager on D’Amelio’s team was invited to the photoshoot w Lorenz/NYT along w Erika Monroe-Williams.

Maybe I was left out bc I had questions.🧐
Isn’t it interesting that just 12 days after Taylor Lorenz’s Hype House Gold Rush article goes out, my clients then sign to UTA. The SAME agency that reps Taylor Lorenz. And Addison signs to WME along with LilHuddy, Thomas and the rest of the Hype House?
Dec 2019 I saw the writing on the wall & I wanted to protect Charli, Dixie, Addison, Tony & Ondreaz from hastily joining a collective publicly in NYT w/o first understanding how the other members would profit from their involvement. Now even Charli’s mom has called LilHuddy out.
Here’s #LilHuddy new song lyrics fans say are abt #CharliDamelio. Seems like he’s projecting…

Stab me in the back like nothin'
Never really saw this comin’
I watched you make it in public
Lights, camera, fuck it

You're a show stopper, a bad liar, homie hopper
Drama starter
Other clients that didn’t heed my advice for their careers were Tony & Ondreaz Lopez. I advised them not to move into #HypeHouse w/o an equity stake in the co they promoted. They ghosted me as soon as they moved in & stopped paying me. 2yrs later Tony,LilHuddy & Thomas were sued.
If you want to dig further into what happened & understand why I believe Taylor Lorenz aligned with #LilHuddy, Thomas, UTA etc to get my clients away from me and ruin my reputation - watch these 2 videos

The Hollywood Reporter tries to both-sides the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni ordeal—while casually smearing an entire religion.

I’m sorry, you can’t accuse someone of SH bc they gave you the ick. 🧵👇🏽 Image
THR suggests the entire controversy might be just a cultural misunderstanding. That Baldoni’s alleged behavior was simply a clash between his Baha’i faith and Hollywood’s post-MeToo workplace norms.

“Could everything that went wrong with the movie actually have been one big cultural misunderstanding?”

🤔
The piece spends an absurd amount of time dissecting Baldoni’s religion—implying his faith is somehow central to the legal battle. Yet Lively’s lawsuit doesn’t mention Baha’i at all.

🚨 Screenshots are being circulated alleging that multiple actresses on It Ends With Us filed HR complaints against Justin Baldoni and that this is Blake Lively's smoking gun.

But let’s actually THINK for a second—because some things aren’t adding up besties. 🧵⬇️ Image
1️⃣ WHAT THE SCREENSHOTS ACTUALLY SAY

The circulating screenshots claim that Sony received additional HR complaints against Baldoni from other actresses on set (possibly Jenny Slate or Isabela Ferrer).

🚨 That’s it. That’s the whole big reveal. 🚨

But let’s ask the obvious questions:

WHERE WERE THESE COMPLAINTS BEFORE?
- Are they even real?
- If they are real, why weren’t they referenced in the CRD or Blake’s lawsuit?
- If multiple people filed complaints before the lawsuit, wouldn’t that have been major evidence in Blake’s case?

Why weren’t these included to bolster her claims?

The math isn’t mathing. 🤨Image

2️⃣ THIS DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS BRYAN FREEDMAN’S STATEMENT.

Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, went on record saying:

🗣️ “Well, remember that there was actually no allegation of sexual harassment until the lawsuit was filed.”

So either:

❌ Freedman lied publicly (unlikely), or
❌ These complaints weren’t filed until AFTER the CRD, meaning they don’t prove anything about Baldoni’s conduct during filming.

If these existed before the lawsuit, why would Freedman be this bold about saying there were no complaints? You think he’d risk that if there was actual documented proof out there?

Let me get this straight…Ashley St. Clair had people running defense for her over a “mean girl” comment—secretly pregnant with Elon’s kid. Now she’s doing a PR tour from a $40K/mo apartment, publicly begging for a response?

The power trip was real. The fall-off is even funnier.
“Elon, we have been trying to communicate for several days” is crazy. Sis, he’s ghosting you, not lost at sea. Image
“Elon won’t text me back” but make it a five-paragraph essay. Image

What if I told you a federal judge wrote a novel smearing a real-life litigant—WHILE ruling on his case?

Sounds insane? It happened. And the Fifth Circuit just let it slide.

Here’s why Judge Stacey Jernigan’s courtroom is a legal cartel. 🧵👇 Image
But this goes way beyond one judge—power players use the courts to enrich insiders and shut out anyone who challenges them.

Get ready besties, because I’ve been deep in the receipts on this case, and it’s absolutely insane.
Imagine being advised by a former bankruptcy judge that the best way to resolve a minor employment dispute is…

🚨 Filing Chapter 11 bankruptcy

Even though you’re a billionaire and the business is solvent.

That’s how the Highland Capital case started. And it spiraled into a $1 BILLION liquidation.

🚨 Candace, Candace, Candace… you were so close. You had it—Taylor Swift’s PR empire, Ronan Farrow playing industry nepo-enforcer, The NYT running protection—but then you lost the plot. 🧵

Justin Baldoni vs. Blake Lively is a textbook NYT takedown—a playbook I know firsthand.
You really think the NYT wouldn’t “risk their reputation” for Blake Lively? Girl. That’s not a risk for them—it’s their entire business model.

The NYT doesn’t make moves based on reputation. They make them based on who benefits.

And trust me, a lot of people benefited from taking down Baldoni.
Let’s explore, shall we?

The NYT got a juicy Hollywood feud to milk for clicks and to keep their “we break every MeToo story” branding alive.

Lively’s publicist took out top entertainment PR heavyweights—Melissa Nathan, Jennifer Abel, and Jed Wallace—some of the biggest names in crisis and Hollywood publicity.

And Taylor Swift? She got to take a jab at Scooter Braun—who just so happens to have funded the crisis PR firm run by Melissa Nathan, one of the key players behind Johnny Depp’s comeback. 🤔Image

I’m not a gossip reporter. I run a startup, and in 2 weeks I’ve pulled 3 all-nighters covering the Justin Baldoni vs. Blake Lively saga after working my regular day.

Here’s why I’m going to keep covering it—and why you should care. 🧵 Image
Smear campaigns are real. They’re designed to destroy reputations, ruin lives, and shift public opinion.

And while Justin Baldoni is lucky to have a billionaire backing him, most people don’t stand a chance when they’re targeted.
Regular people can’t fight Hollywood power players, PR firms, or media outlets with unlimited budgets. Their only hope?

If YOU, the public, learn how to decipher smear tactics and call them out when you see them.
