Blake Lively, best known for her role as Serena van der Woodsen on Gossip Girl, is facing shocking accusations from Rossella Rago, a former extra on the show and host of the popular YouTube series Cooking with Nonna. Rago, who worked as a stand-in on Gossip Girl for all six seasons, described Lively as “horrendous” to work with and alleged troubling behavior on set.
In a TikTok video, Rago shared her experiences, claiming, “She would burp and fart in the middle of set – and act like we were lucky to be smelling her farts. She was very unpleasant to work with. I just don’t know how else to say it.”
Rago also tied her remarks to Lively’s ongoing legal battle with actor-director Justin Baldoni, accusing the actress of throwing him “under the bus.” Lively recently filed a lawsuit against Baldoni, alleging sexual harassment and a “smear campaign” against her. Baldoni responded with a $400 million countersuit for civil extortion, defamation, and invasion of privacy.
“She’s used to being adored, and when she’s not, s**t gets real. Baldoni has found out how real it gets,” Rago alleged.
Rago, 37, didn’t stop there. She reflected on Lively’s rise to fame, calling her a “nepo baby” who struggled to handle the attention. “When she was 19, the whole world was blowing smoke up her a**. It’s really hard to keep your head when that happens,” Rago said.
According to Rago, Lively’s fame and privilege gave her a sense of entitlement on set. “I’m thinking she believes she has the right to behave exactly as she wants. And how dare we make a fuss? She couldn’t handle that people didn’t frigging like her and she was looking like an a**hole,” Rago added.
The explosive claims have ignited a fresh wave of criticism around Lively, whose public image is now under scrutiny. As fans weigh in on social media, the allegations raise questions about Hollywood power dynamics and on-set behaviour.
While Lively has not yet commented on Rago’s statements, the timing couldn’t be worse, as the actress remains embroiled in her high-profile legal battle with Baldoni.
