Blake Lively/ Kjersti Flaa Interview

The hate that Blake Lively is still getting for this particular interview is so frustrating. People need to realize that pregnancy for celebrities is much different than regular people. Their bodies are discussed non stop even when they aren’t pregnant. Here is the beginning part of an article from May 2016. This is why saying “congratulations on your little bump” is not the way to go about starting an interview.

“The Curious Case of Blake Lively’s Disappearing and Reappearing Baby Bump at Cannes When a reportedly pregnant Blake Lively arrived at Cannes, we all braced ourselves for a steady stream of maternity looks the likes of which us mere mortals could never hope to pull off. Instead, her bump has been playing a steady game of “peek-a-boo,” looking everywhere from nonexistent to definitely happening in every outfit she’s worn. Take a look at the actress’s Cannes looks thus far as we indulge in our current favorite guessing game: Is Blake Lively pregnant or nah?”

The interviewer was probably hoping to get a warmer reply with some information about her pregnancy that would make her interview more popular. If her sole purpose was to congratulate BL, it should have been done at the end of the interview without commenting on her bump.
