Amber Heard has added her voice to the ongoing controversy surrounding Blake Lively’s allegations against her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. In an interview with NBC News, Heard discussed the role social media plays in spreading misinformation, drawing from her personal experiences.

"Social media is the absolute personification of the classic saying, ‘A lie travels halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on,’" Heard said. "I saw this firsthand and up close. It’s as horrifying as it is destructive.”

Though Heard didn’t mention specifics, her remarks appeared to allude to her high-profile legal battle with Johnny Depp, which concluded with a verdict largely in Depp’s favor. The case, which dominated headlines, highlighted how social media can shape public perception during legal disputes.

Blake Lively recently filed a lawsuit against Justin Baldoni, accusing him of sexual harassment, fostering a hostile work environment, and orchestrating a smear campaign to damage her reputation. Lively alleged that Baldoni, along with PR crisis manager Melissa Nathan, devised a social media strategy to discredit her during the production of their film.

The lawsuit has garnered significant attention due to its serious nature and Lively's explosive claims. Baldoni, through his legal team, has denied the allegations, calling them "completely false, outrageous, and salacious" with the intent to harm his reputation.

It Ends With Us, starring Lively and Baldoni, was a much-anticipated project. However, during promotional activities, the two reportedly gave interviews separately, fueling speculation about their professional relationship.

As the legal battle unfolds, it continues to raise questions about the interplay of social media, public perception, and accountability in high-stakes disputes.
