Blake Lively had her chauffeur bring her mahjong set to court
Talk about feeling en-tiled.
Blake Lively had her chauffeur fetch her pricey mahjong set and bring it to her in court on Wednesday, Page Six hears.
We hear the “Gossip Girl” star showed up around 8.30 a.m. Wednesday for a day of mediation in her suit against former co-star Justin Baldoni, and the proceeding got underway at 10 a.m.
By 11 a.m., we hear that Lively — likely doing some waiting while a judge went back and forth between her team and Baldoni’s — had grown weary of the wheels of justice turning slowly, and called for her diversions.
We’re told her driver showed up at the door of the Daniel Patrick Moynihan Courthouse with the centuries-old Chinese tile game in hand.
Lively has talked previously about her mahjong habit.
In December she told Vogue, “I have been teaching friends how to play [mahjong], though I need to say I’m not a certified teacher.”
“But I know enough to teach my friends how to play with me, and in the end, I always end up gifting them my own set because they are obsessed and want to practice,” she added.
Apparently she favors sets from Oh My Mahjong, which run as high as $500. (A basic sets cost about $25. And an ultra luxe one by Brunello Cuccinelli sells for $15,500!)
The pair are in court trying to reach a pre-trial settlement in Lively’s sexual harassment suit against Baldoni. The actor has strenuously denied wrongdoing.
She has also accused him of attempting to use “social manipulation” to “destroy” her reputation.
They were due back in court on Thursday.
