Perez Hilton Takes On Blake Lively Subpoena Solo—“Cautiously Optimistic”

Perez Hilton is defending himself pro se in a subpoena hearing tied to Blake Lively’s lawsuit involving Justin Baldoni. Despite lacking legal representation, Hilton says he's “cautiously optimistic,” citing his diligent self-study of legal procedures. Lively’s team alleges Hilton used his gossip platform to aid Baldoni in a campaign of defamation tied to harassment claims. The blogger maintains he was neither paid nor directed to post anything negative, and he is challenging what he calls an overly broad subpoena that threatens journalistic protections. In classic David-vs-Goliath style, Hilton believes being thrust into court might help sharpen his legal savvy. The hearing is drawing attention to the gray area between journalistic freedom and defamation in celebrity reporting.
