Paul Hollywood Trolls Blake Lively on her Birthday with New Beverage Line
Move over, Ryan Reynolds: Paul Hollywood has entered the tent—of trolling.
In celebration of Blake Lively’s 36th birthday on Aug. 25, The Great British Baking Show judge tested out her new beverage line Betty Booze and couldn’t help but troll the actress along the way.
As seen in an ad for the brand, Blake arrives at Paul’s home with bottles of her concoction—named after Blake’s grandmother, whose moniker was also passed down to Blake and Ryan’s 3-year-old daughter Betty.
Blake hands a can to Paul, saying, “I would love your professional opinion, if you don’t mind.”
After he notes to Blake that “I didn’t think you drink alcohol,” the Gossip Girl alum clarifies she doesn’t. “I eat it,” she corrects him. “Bourbon and whipped cream, sherry vinaigrette, really hard pressed to find anything I cook without alcohol. Do you like it?”
“I really like it,” the pro baker responds once he takes in the flavor. “The tang, the balance with the ginger. It’s spot-on.”
Fans of both Paul Hollywood and Blake Lively were thrilled to see these two stars collaborate in such a unique way. Blake’s new beverage line has been receiving praise for its innovative flavors and charming marketing approach.
Betty Booze is just one of the many ventures Blake has been involved in recently. Known for her acting skills, the star has also taken on the role of entrepreneur with her own lifestyle brand and now, a line of alcoholic beverages.
The collaboration with Paul Hollywood adds an interesting twist to her venture, highlighting the actress’ creativity and willingness to step out of her comfort zone. It also showcases Paul’s sense of humor and willingness to participate in fun projects.
The teaser for the ad has already amassed millions of views and fans can’t wait to try out Betty Booze for themselves. With the endorsement of Paul Hollywood, it is expected to become a popular choice among beverage enthusiasts.
Whether or not this collaboration will lead to more joint projects between Blake Lively and Paul Hollywood remains to be seen, but fans are certainly excited to see what these two will come up with next. In the meantime, they can enjoy a can of Betty Booze and toast to Blake’s birthday. Cheers!
