Blake Lively

Blake Lively has transitioned from a teen drama star to an acclaimed film actress, producer, and entrepreneur. After her breakthrough co-starring role as Bridget in The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (2005), which earned her a Teen Choice Award nomination for ‘Choice Movie Breakout – Female,’ Blake Lively gained widespread recognition for her portrayal of Serena van der Woodsen in The CW’s acclaimed teen drama series Gossip Girl (2007–2012). During her five-year tenure on the series, she also pursued film roles, appearing in New York, I Love You (2008), The Private Lives of Pippa Lee (2009), The Town (2010), and Green Lantern (2011). Lively’s growing influence was formally acknowledged with her inclusion in Time magazine’s 100 influential people list in 2011.

Building on this achievement, she further expanded her entrepreneurial portfolio in 2023 with the introduction of Betty Booze, a collection of alcoholic canned cocktails, demonstrating her significant influence across multiple industries by seamlessly blending her creative and business acumen. Continuing her multifaceted career into 2024, Lively starred in and produced the highly anticipated film adaptation of It Ends with Us. Further cementing her entrepreneurial footprint, she also launched her haircare line, Blake Brown, in 2024. Lively’s enduring impact and influence are slated to be recognized once again with her inclusion in Time magazine’s 100 most influential people list for 2025.
