In The Driver's Seat with Janine Driver

Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni – Who’s Telling the Truth?

Janine Driver Season 1 Episode 4

Have you ever read a text message and thought, "This looks polite, but it smells like a crime scene"? 🚨 You know, the classic:

👉 “No worries! 😊” (Translation: I am absolutely worried, and you’re going to pay for this.)
👉 “Just checking in!” (Translation: I’m seething with rage but pretending to be calm.)
👉 “We should talk…” (Translation: Should I pack a bag first? Am I in danger?)

If that sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Welcome to In the Driver’s Seat with Janine Driver, where we expose deception before it plays you.

Blake says Justin harassed and smeared her. Justin says Blake, Ryan Reynolds, and their PR team tried to extort him. And guess what? We have text receipts! 📱🔥

By the end of this episode, you’ll know how to:
Spot fake apologies before they gaslight you into oblivion
Decode hidden power moves in texts (so you never get played)
Text like a total boss and never send a weak message again

Key Takeaways from Today’s Episode

🔹 Liars talk too much – They add unnecessary details to convince instead of conveying the truth.
🔹 Honest people use more “I” statements – If someone avoids saying "I messed up", that’s a red flag.
🔹 Fake apologies are full of dramatic language – Watch out for words like “deeply saddened,” “profound regret,” and “beyond belief”—that’s not remorse, that’s a PR script.
🔹 Nixon’s Famous I-Statement Confession – Why a laughing politician isn’t always lying (sometimes, it’s embarrassment).
🔹 The #1 Texting Red Flag – If an apology includes the word "if", it’s trash. 🚮 Example: “I’m sorry IF I offended anyone.”
