My heart is exploding from the adorableness in this picture

Is it possible to be jealous of a baby?

Found it, thanks!

EDIT: Adding the pic for you Halolulu

1.) What in the world has she got on her feet? Oh Blake...

2.) Love her outfit otherwise though- very preppy chic, and Ryan is looking pretty casual-dapper himself

3.) She was pretty awesome in this GG episode, she's showing maturity these past few episodes but knowing the writers they'll probably make her into a drug-addled bimbo somewhere down the line to service their plot points. F--cking Gossip Girl.

Some Tumblr sightings, as well:

My coworker just served Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively delicious gelato. WHY WAS I NOT SCHEDULED TO WORK TODAY?

my cousin served them at poogans porch yesterday

Hey guys,

Huge fan of Blake checking in. I can't believe I didn't know about this place until tonight. Thanks a bunch to the little birdie that gave me a hint.

It'll take days to catch up on this thread.

I already love it here!

Welcome Wendy Nice to have you here! Catch up and contribute, the more Blake fans we have, the better

Nice, thanks Amie! Isn't it funny how all these pix we were hoping to see at the time of the event (with Almodovar, Lagerfeld, Anna, etc.) have eventually showed up.

Haha, I know right? I'm such a worrywart sometimes I can't help it. Now I need her to show up in a Pedro Almodovar movie I hear he's doing a comedy next.

Huffington Post

I agree with all the writer's observations, better yet, they should cancel the show and put the actors and the fans out of their misery yeah? But they are getting a final season 6 though

First time seeing this pic of her with Pedro Almodovar and Elena Anaya:

I wonder how these stars do it, all those flashbulbs would give me a seizure. Love how calm she is through it all though. A pic from inside:

Noon by Noor Event

Sorry, maybe it's me, but she doesn't look very good

Yeah, she looks like she's lost a ton of weight. There's a lot of craziness going on around her and I just hope she's okay. She looks like she could use a break.

Omigosh, I just read the full court documents with the evidence and the e-mails he sent, it is so chilling and creepy. At a point he even threatened her, seriously, this guy should be jailed.

Here's some BTS pics from them shooting in Bali. Unfortunately, no Blake Urgh, whyyyy can't we just get a simple pic with Blake and the guys? It's not that hard people!

Okay, which one of you ladies was this :

BLAKE LIVELY Gets Restraining Order Against Obsessed Fan

Blake Lively just got a restraining order against a fan she claims was lurking around the set of "Gossip Girl" -- a fan who claims to have a "metaphysical" connection with the actress and was there "to help me heal."

The fan -- Sergei Mifle -- allegedly made repeated contact with Blake's mom, telling her he was "deeply concerned" about her daughter and claimed he needed to help her because she was troubled.

Blake says in her declaration she's fearful about her personal safety and the safety of her mother.

The judge issued the restraining order, which prohibits Mifle from coming anywhere near the actress or her mom.

TMZ

Lol just kidding... <_<

...it's actually really scary though Hope she's safe.

Haha, I just got home and was gonna post the scans. Got my copy today, quite heavy too and dare I say, she even looks hotter in the magazine pics than in the scans. Lovely, lovely interview too... my favorite parts were:

Oliver Stone knew Lively was up to the task, based on her work in Rebecca Miller's little-seen 2009 gem, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee. "That scene where she slaps her mother?" he says. "God, that stood out."

...In a sign of how far she's come, Stone acknowledges that Lively actively lobbied for her character to go in a more hopeful direction than was written on the page. "We had a couple of sit-downs and hammered it out," the director says. "Blake is very specific. One day she'll probably be a director." Of her work in Savages, he says, "She wants to go as far from what's inside of her as possible. She'll surprise people."

and

"I'm a person that takes time with everything I do. And if I make a decision, it's because I'm incredibly confident in it. I'm not a rash person. I really like to live by delayed gratification. I think if you really put something off that feels right and-like a great soup- the more you let something marinate, the better it is. If I decided to do something, that's no one's business but my own, and I'm proud of the decision I made."

It really a great interview (although you can sense a bit of condescension from the writer), of course you can trust the tabs to extract the salacious parts of the interview and present it without context like that comment about the people hitting on her, it makes soo much sense with the background story surrounding it.

Sigh... she's such a great girl and wonderfully headstrong and decisive- no whining for her, I aksi love how she came off with an edge in this interview, you can tell she doesn't let people just walk all over her.

I also love how incredibly confident of her Oliver is, he admires her so much and sounds like such a proud papa. It really is nice to see that he, like the rest of the industry, doesn't judge her by the quality of her work on GG but on the wonderful work she's done in indies. Really can't wait to see her output in Savages.

^For someone with no stylist, she's always remarkably ahead of the curve

Sigh... I'm missing her too girls, let's just send positive vibes that her movie is a smashing success and becomes a turnaround for her career and who knows what else . In the meantime, here's another vid of her at the Godiva event:

^No worries, I'm just referring to the fact that she's always blamed and accused of calling the paparazzi whenever a picture of her or her with her boyfriend is taken.

I was also pointing out that that picture of Ryan is the first time a picture has been taken outside her apartment but luckily she's in Indonesia right now so she can't be blamed for alerting the paparazzi to Ryan leaving her apartment. Hope I cleared things up?

Nice and fair article

In Defense of Blake Lively

Blake Lively is gorgeous- no question about it. She's the kind of long-legged, perfectly proportioned blonde that comes along every couple of years that Hollywood seems to be drawn to and anoints with the title of "It". She stars on a hit television show ('Gossip Girl' just aired it's 100th episode last week). She's dated the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Ryan Reynolds. She's become a sort of fashion icon- famously stating that she doesn't use a stylist. And counts the likes of Anna Wintour (whom she sits next to in the front row of fashion shows), Karl Lagerfeld (who throws parties in her honor and makes her the face of campaigns), and Christian Louboutin (who named a shoe after her) as friends. So, why would someone who seems to have so much need to be defended? Because all she really wants is to be is taken seriously as an actress.

Not content with just being a pretty face, Blake has sought out great directors and difficult material to collaborate on. Writer/director, Rebecca Miller (daughter of playwright, Arthur Miller, and wife to Oscar winner, Daniel Day-Lewis), was the first to take a chance and cast Blake in her film, The Private Lives of Pippa Lee. Miller says she wasn't even aware of Blake's television career and felt that she was discovering the next great actress of her generation. She even compared her talent to Oscar winner, Jessica Lange. Blake next worked with actor/director Ben Affleck on The Town, in which she played a gritty character so far removed from what people were accustomed to seeing that audiences and critics started to wonder if there was more to her than originally suspected. This fall brings her work with celebrated director, Oliver Stone. The film, Savages, which takes place in a world of drugs and kidnapping is another far cry from her Park Avenue Princess role on television. It seems that she is determined to challenge herself and grow as an actress.

But, it seems not everyone is buying it. Blake was set to star in the film, Side Effects, from Oscar-winning director, Steven Soderbergh. The character is a woman addicted to prescription drugs who fears the release of her husband from prison. She was set to start filming this spring, until word came last week that she was out. It turns out, the producers backed out when they found out Blake was involved in the project and only came back on board when she was replaced with Girl With the Dragon Tattoo star (and Best Actress Nominee), Rooney Mara.

This would have been her first time as the lead in a film. It's hard to show that you are capable of more when someone won't even give you a chance. People are quick to dismiss Blake Lively as an actress, but we have yet to see her potential. So far she has risen to the task in supporting roles, but has yet to be able to carry the responsibility of a drama on her own. She could very easily take the easy way to stardom and appear in brainless rom-coms that ask nothing more of her than to be beautiful. But, she is actually seeking out work that will help her grow as an artist. Soderbergh must have seen something in her to cast her in the first place. Hopefully, she'll be able to showcase what she has to offer so we can accurately judge her abilities as an actress.

When you rise to fame on the success of a teenage soap opera, it can be hard to break out of that mold and be able to portray substantial, adult roles. Luckily Blake has a patron saint; someone who paved the way for what she's attempting. After all, ten years ago, three-time Academy Award nominee, Michelle Williams, was still just that blonde girl from 'Dawson's Creek'.

No fur blanket to be seen, but I'm guessing Ryan is on Penny duty while Blake is away filming...

February 7, 2012: Ryan Reynold's leaves Blake Lively's apartment and hops into a car.

I suppose Blake called the paps all the way from Bali and alerted them to Ryan leaving her apartment no?

Funny how she/her boyfriends have never been papped outside her apartment till today, luckily she's in Bali so she can't take the fall for this as gossip bloggers are wont to do.

^^I think the person got her confused with Ella Rae Peck (real Charlie) who was also on set yesterday

It was in this LA Times preview of Savages:

The screenplay largely follows the novel (the book's "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" ending may be tweaked a bit) and brings to physical life much of what Winslow imagined — including some indoor, hydroponic pot farms that look far too genuine. Thanks to their lab work, Chon and Ben are able to produce a cannabis strain second to none, leading them to see themselves more as inventors than law breakers.

LA Times

There are some places in the book that allude to the three leads living in Indonesia and I suppose them filming in Bali is to fulfill that. Another theory is that the ending Sannei refers to maybe didn't test well at the screenings and the studio had them film another one?

Yay! I'm happy to have contributed too (and I also dragged my roommate along as well ). I would've put the pics up but everyone's already seen them.

Life for Blake Lively is like a Box of Chocolates

By Alexandra Cheney

For Blake Lively, the perfect Valentine’s Day begins and ends with the same activity, eating chocolate. The “Gossip Girl” actress turned up at the Andaz Hotel in Manhattan Wednesday to promote the holiday partnership between Godiva and Nicholas Sparks, who was also present and promoting his most recent book-cum-film, “The Lucky One.”

Lively, a self-proclaimed chocolate lover (like her mother, who was seen stuffing herself full of chocolates at the event) was on hand in a Valentino ensemble, eager to chat about the many ways she incorporates the ingredient into her diet (mostly in desserts, sometimes for breakfast). Lively stationed herself teetering in her Louboutin’s in front of a desk decorated with the chocolate-maker’s famous truffles, talking and laughing with Sparks. She spoke briefly about her coming role in “Savages,” where she stars as the kidnapped girlfriend of two marijuana growers, a stark departure from her role as Upper East Side socialite in “Gossip Girl.”

“My character has a lot to go through, being ripped from her home at night by a drug cartel, it’s not a normal experience,” said Lively. The film is directed by Oliver Stone and also stars Academy Award nominated Demian Bichir, John Travolta and Taylor Kitsch. Lively is headed to Bali next week to continue shooting.

Interesting. Hope she gets to spend Valentine's Day with Ryan though Although Bali is quite a nice and romantic destination too

Vid of her from yesterday:

She talks about why she isn't on Twitter saying:

I think I could be a little boring. No, I'm a very private person. The last thing I wanna do is share my life, every moment of my life with people. I share a lot of it, in this job but what I have to myself I treasure

She also talks about Hick and making it and being friends with "little Chloe" and how it comes out in April... we should be getting a trailer for that soon, I guess.

And speaking of trailers, some people are speculating Savages trailer could be attached to Safe House since they're both Universal projects, I really really hope so!

Even some more:
