| 0:00.0 | So Cardi B might just win the award for having the best celebrity trial court case ever, |
| 0:05.8 | and I'm going to tell you why, because unfortunately, I think I'm becoming a fan. |
| 0:14.0 | Okay, so I know that was a lofty thing to say, especially in the era of Blake Lively and |
| 0:19.6 | Drs Valdoni, coming on the heels of Johnny Depp |
| 0:22.7 | and Amber Hurd, obviously. We had the Gwyneth Paltrow Ski case last year. There have been a lot of |
| 0:29.1 | prolific celebrity court cases recently, and yet now this new one with Cardi B has fallen into my lap, |
| 0:36.0 | and I fear that she might actually just take the cake. |
| 0:39.5 | And it's not because this case is so riveting or is so deep for whatever reason. |
| 0:45.3 | It's simply because she is so freaking funny and we need to talk about it. |
| 0:49.5 | So like I said, we have had a ton of celebrity court cases. And usually with these cases, even though they're |
| 0:55.5 | funny and they go viral, there is something deeper here. And for example, with Justin Baldoni, |

| 1:06.5 | what we're seeing with Blake lively. That has like broken the conversation even more open than when it was |
| 1:11.7 | broken open with Johnny Depp but I honestly think that there is something that goes even deeper |
| 1:16.9 | and that is simply greed it is a desire to destroy somebody's reputation for your own gain it is a |
| 1:23.5 | desire to make money off of their backs and I think regardless of whether there is a social issue at play in any of these court cases, |
| 1:31.3 | most of these trials that involve celebrities really goes back to that, especially when they are being sued by somebody who is not in the public eye. |
| 1:38.8 | And that is what happened with Gwyneth Paltrow. |
| 1:41.0 | She allegedly collided with a guy while she was skiing, I think, in like |
| 1:44.6 | Park City or something. He sued her. It was very dramatic. She came into court and she was like, you can give me a dollar. Like, I literally don't care if I win. Like, this is just so ridiculous. And that is what is going on with Cardi B. But before we get into Cardi B, I do want to make the argument that that is also what happened with Amber Heard and that that is also what happened |
| 2:03.4 | with like lively because yes like Before we get into Cardi B, I do want to make the argument that that is also what happened with Amber Heard and that that is also what happened with Blake Lively. |
| 2:04.2 | Because yes, Blink Lively is alleging that Justin Baldoni sexually harassed her, that, you know, the set of their movie was this awful toxic place. |
