The biggest names in entertainment, politics, and business follow the same unspoken rules of influence, branding, and narrative control. Ashley Investigates exposes how power really works behind the scenes—breaking down media manipulation, Hollywood’s hidden agendas, and the branding strategies shaping public perception in the breaking stories you can’t get enough of!

  • (14) It Ends With Us Marketing Disaster I Taylor Swift & Ronan Farrow Meeting I Blake Lively Met Gala
    May 7 2025

    In this video, we look at three major headlines surrounding the It Ends With Us lawsuits (Which then causes me to go off track into the Ronan Farrow & Taylor Swift connection)!1. The “Fake Press Junket” VideoWe look at the awkward behind-the-scenes clip of Blake Lively directing Ryan Reynolds, Brandon Sklenar, and even Ryan’s mom in what looks like a staged press junket. 2. The Taylor Swift + Ronan Farrow ConnectionA recent article claims Blake and Taylor are still close, but who planted that story—and why? This prompts me to mention something I have been meaning to cover for some time: How Ronan Farrow & Taylor Swift publicly met around the time Blake Lively would have started working with the New York times. 3. Blake Lively Skips the Met GalaShe’s a Met Gala staple, so why skip 2024? I explain why showing up this year would’ve been a branding disaster—and how skipping it is actually the smartest move she could make right now.If you’re watching the It Ends With Us drama unfold and want to understand the real media strategy at play, this video pulls back the curtain.Make sure to like, subscribe, and hit "get notifications" so you don't miss new videos!#ItEndsWithUs #BlakeLively #TaylorSwift #RonanFarrow #MetGala2024 #CelebrityPR
