Alexa Nikolas Accuses Blake Lively of 'Shameful' Film Promotion Amid Personal Controversy
In a dramatic turn of events, former Nickelodeon star Alexa Nikolas has publicly criticized Blake Lively and the film "It Ends With Us" for what she deems a 'shameful' promotion strategy. Nikolas, who is known for her role in "Zoey 101," took to Instagram to express her discontent with the film's rollout, particularly focusing on its soundtrack, which features a song by her ex-husband, Michael Milosh.
Nikolas, now 32, has had a tumultuous history with Milosh, a musician who performs under the stage name Rhye. Their relationship, marked by allegations of abuse, has resurfaced in light of the film's release. In her Instagram post, Nikolas slammed both Lively and the film's producers for their decision to include Milosh's track, "Hymn," on the movie’s soundtrack. This choice, she argues, is not only a personal affront but also a gross oversight given her past legal battles with Milosh.

Nikolas's grievances extend beyond the soundtrack. She described the film's promotion as a 'complete disaster,' emphasizing that the inclusion of Milosh’s music is particularly egregious given her past accusations. In 2021, Nikolas filed a lawsuit against Milosh, alleging he had abused and groomed her when she was a minor. Although she later dropped the lawsuit, the public nature of the allegations has cast a long shadow over Milosh's career and personal life.
The film "It Ends With Us," which stars Blake Lively and is based on Colleen Hoover’s novel of the same name, has faced its share of controversies. The story deals with themes of domestic abuse, and Lively's promotion of the film has been met with mixed reactions. Particularly concerning was a recent interview where Lively's dismissive response to questions about the film’s serious themes drew widespread criticism.
Nikolas's post quickly gained traction on social media, where it sparked further backlash against both Lively and the film. Critics have argued that the movie’s marketing and promotional strategies have been mishandled, adding to the overall controversy surrounding its release.
Blake Lively has yet to respond directly to Nikolas’s accusations. However, the incident has added fuel to an already heated discussion about the film and its handling of sensitive subject matter. As the debate continues, the impact of these controversies on the film’s reception and on Lively's public image remains to be seen.
