Blake Lively has come under fire yet again for repeatedly using a transgender slur in resurfaced interviews.

The “It Ends With Us” star was called out on social media Sunday when a fan referenced a remark she made about her future children in a 2012 interview with Elle magazine.

‌sometimes ill [sic] be quietly going about my day and then ill [sic] remember the time blake lively said this to a journalist,” the user posted on X. He shared an image of her quote, which read: “I hope to have a few girls one day. If not girls, they better be trannies. Because I have some amazing shoes and bags and stories that need to be appreciated.”

 

Fans reacted to Lively’s use of the term “tranny,” which has been deemed defamatory by some members of the trans community, according to GLAAD.

“You just blew up the whole smear campaign with this one,” one user commented.

“Not Lady Deadpool…” another person added. However, others had grace for the “Gossip Girl” alum, while acknowledging she could have articulated herself better.
