The Rest Is...Blake Lively’s TIME100 Speech - PR Stunt or Authentic Moment?
This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle unpack the fallout from Blake Lively’s controversial speech at the TIME100 Gala—an event meant to celebrate her influence, but one that may have sparked one of her biggest PR missteps to date.

The reaction? Divisive, with Megyn Kelly calling it an “unnecessary PR stunt.”
